So sounds like he’s SOL, and the only potential recourse would be to pursue damages from the realtor in court, assuming he has evidence of communication explicitly stating the requirement to have the tenancy terminated by possession date.

My buddy is (obviously) pissed and really believes he should be able to renege on deal and get his deposits back, but I really don’t see that being the case.

Unreal. I knew realtors could be a pretty whack, predatory profession but even I’m shocked at this incompetence. And to be notified of this less than a month to go, yikes.
Not a lawyer, but if your buddy has documentation showing him giving his realtor direction to state that the tenant must be out, he could potentially sue the realtor for any expenses incurred while they wait for tenant to move out??

Probably want to check with one of the CP lawyers on this though.
