Define a "binder." If the 'binder' is a contract to purchase, then the seller has breached the contract, and can be sued for damages for non-performance.

Can a seller force a buyer to use a certain lender?

No, not unless it is written into the sales contract that you will sign, or have already signed. If you haven't signed it yet, the use of a specific lender named by the seller, is a negotiable item over which you can try to bargain (e.g.: a lower sales price or a lower interest rate). If the seller is adamant, you may have to decide how badly you want whatever it is they are selling, and be prepared to "walk."

If you have already signed the title over to a seller who did not buy the car and you wish to sell it to someone else, you will need to either get a new copy of the title from your state department of motor vehicles (DMV) or obtain a form to supersede that signature. How and what is required will vary from state to state and very likely you will have to pay a fee or fine for doing so.
