Help… lender won’t close on REFI

My broker won’t give close my loan on a refi. Long story short we started the refi process in November and supposed to close in December at 2.875% on 30 yr refi with cash out 70%.

We had all initial disclosures and loan estimate signed NOT LOCKED. Then proceeded to tell him to close and he said by December.

Come end of December and he said it needs to push out and then said we were locked in verbally but never send any docs or emails. I called his associate who is working for him saying it was never locked in but waiting for the market to shift.

Then he kept pushing out due to issues on his side, then again, again, and again. Kept saying his team needed to complete tasks, etc. all kinds of issues, one being he got Covid, then something else’s, etc.

Now rates are sky high and I called him out on what was going on. He said he’s now doing it wholesale and not making a penny. He’s got to go into this other system that’s not his to get the disclosures and LE showing locked.

I think he is bull shitting us for a while now after him losing at playing the rate game by not locking in until the last minute but rates went high.

Meanwhile all conversations with him are him saying all on track, locked in, and all good. Even saying he’s working on it now and should be all set etc. very buddy buddy and reassuring.

Is he full of it?

Is there any recourse for us? Does he owe us anything? Can we get our appraisal fee back?

Thanks

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
