More likely it is an investor lieing in order to secure a great deal.

He was totally lying!

That's funny.Rather than spend money on that I would like to see the project to Europa happen.It is one of the ice moons with glacier like ice surface with cracks opening and closing.The scientists believe and underwater ocean is beneath the ice.Where there is water and oxygen there can be forms of life.The project talks about sending an unmanned submarine into one of the cracks with a camera to explore.There are literally millions to billions of planets thought to exist.Some mimick the exact conditions of Earth but are too far away with current technology to reach.I personally do not think we are the only thing out there.The science adds up to existence on other planets.I find it fascinating but can understand why with the current economic crunch we need to fix the stuff on our own planet before exploring others.

Possibly, however you're already now lying at the beginning of the transaction if you are intending to put in someone else's number.

They use hype and high pressure, shill bidders, lies about buyers not coming through, etc.

Also, I can look up an agents transactional history, and they should know that, so if they lie about that- probably not good.

Well we don't know what the real version is only what you are telling us.Not saying yours isn't correct just that there are always 2 sides.I have sat in eviction court waiting to deal with my tenants and the stories I have heard is crazy.The judge orders the writ every time and gets through the tenant BS in about 2 minutes.The judge will want EVERYTHING in writing.This way he doesn't have to spend a bunch of time trying to find out what is factual based on verbal agreements.Generally I have found tenants to look away from the judge when asked a question,or stutter with the answer,change the answer mid stream,or lie all together.Usually I don't even speak and the tenant digs a huge hole for themselves real quick.Now in your case "standard policy" doesn't mean squat if it isn't in writing.So you may have a case here.I do see tenants win sometimes but it is 1 out of every 20 cases or so in court.

I am fairly sure she is lying because, she didn't say her bank made an error, just that they were not sure why the check didn't clear.

. - The offer becomes way less attractive than any other offer that is a conventional loan because the seller assumes that you have less cash lying around so there's a higher chance of the deal falling through due to failure to finance (which means you get your earnest money back, generally).Consider saving up for a conventional or 'Rehab' loan which looks much more attractive than FHA and is more popular in this market.
