The requirement to refund deposits probably depends on local (country and/or state) law.

If local law allows the non-refunding of a deposit, a receipt, invoice, or other contractual document signed by both parties and stating "deposits are non refundable" would probably be required.

Depends upon what terms you entered into with the dealer. Some will return it, some won't. Best way to find out (if you don't remember what you agreed to when you gave the deposit) is just to ask.

What happens to escrow money when buyer changes mind?

When a buyer changes their mind after placing earnest money in escrow, the fate of the escrow funds typically depends on the terms of the purchase agreement. If the buyer has a legitimate contingency, such as failing a home inspection or not securing financing, they may be entitled to a refund. However, if the cancellation is without valid cause, the seller might be entitled to keep the escrow money as compensation for taking the property off the market. It's essential to review the contract and consult with a real estate professional for specific guidance.

Legally, they are allowed to keep your deposit although if they are nice enough they will hand it back. That is one of the reasons why a deposit is made, usually they will not give back a deposit as the buyer is putting the seller out of pocket. thanks.

If seller changes mind on selling the home to the buyer but the buyer has already signed the contract and put in a deposit but one of the co-sellers hasn't signed what rights do the buyer have.?

The buyer is entitled to get his deposit money back, but he can't buy the home. This is because there are TWO sellers (two people on the deed) and BOTH seller's need to sign the contract. In your question, only ONE of the sellers signed the contract. Therefore there is no legal contract. Basically, you can't sell something you own jointly with someone else without their permission. Sounds like Seller #1 was trying to sell the home without Seller #2's knowledge and/or permission!I would advise the buyer to get a real estate attorney if he doesn't get his deposit back. And if either party used a real estate agent, they should contact the National Board of Realtors and make a complaint.

Can a buyer change his mind about purchasing real estate?

In Florida residential real estate deals, there are "kick out" clauses written into a purchase contract and/or addendums to the contract that give the buyer the right to walk away from the deal and get his deposit back in full within a certain amount of days. But once those deadlines have passed, the buyer runs the risk of losing his deposit money if he walks or being sued for specific performance for possibly the entire purchase price amount. If that is the case, consult a real estate attorney.
