What is your realtor doing? I'm guessing they'll re-engage for the paycheck if you get another lender's approval.

From the facts you have given only, it sounds like you are entitled to your deposit back. Regardless of what downpayment you and your lender agreed to, if you can't get financing within the financing commitment period, then it SHOULD be quite clearly stated in the contract that you may cancel.
Bottom line, have a real estate attorney interpret that all the details.

Murlikrishna-
It sounds like a conflict! Your lender "pulled out" of the loan does that mean that your loan was denied?

Your deposit of 20% has nothing to do with the loan approval, does it?

If your initail and subsequent deposits (if any) are being held with a real estate brokerage- they may need to file an Escrow Dispute with the Division of Real Estate and request and EDO; Escrow Disbursement Order. There are many issues revolving around your predicament, without the details and actual agreements- it is impossible to determine if and to whom the deposits rightly belong to.

FIRST ANSWER
If your contract was conditional upon your getting financing and your lender writes you a letter stating that you can not get the loan, you should be given your deposit back.
