If you exchange contracts without a finance clause and your formal approval falls through, you could potentially lose your deposit and the vendor can sue you for damages. A 'subject to finance' clause is often a standard condition in home purchase contracts of sale. As a buyer, it gives you the option to back out of the purchase and still get your deposit back, if you can't secure a home loan.
