I have a contract to buy a home. Was preapproved by Quicken loans for a FHA mortgage. After 3 weeks of the run around from them I was informed I was denied (I was told it was "a judgement call" by the underwriter) I proceded take out a home equity loan on my present home to purchace the new home but before I could get my commitment letter to the seller I was told they accepted another bid. Can they do this before the commitment date?

Hi joyc,

I don't think so. I will suggest you to contact a real estate attorney and take his opinion in this regard. He will go through the whole situation and let you know what actions you should take.
