I don't want to force performance on the contract - we believe we are entitled to the escrow money. But it seems futile to sue for $3K if I have to spend $5K to get it.
I just want the mortgage company and other broker to be accountable for the entire mess....

Well, then you're setting yourself up to be disappointed.
The mortgage lender is not a party to the contract, regardless how many paragraphs in that contract make reference to the lender.
Furthermore, while you are entitled to a copy of the denial letter, you are not entitled to know the buyer's financial data and credit history.
This is why the lender letter should vetted before the contract is even ratified and another reason to supported sticking with a local lender (and this is from someone that lends in all 50 states).
