consideration is money, and it keeps everyone's interest in the early stages of an offer accepted.... that consideration is deposited immediately after the acceptance of the offer.

Without consideration, you have no Contract in North & South Carolina...and likely most states but, I don't know about yours.

Consideration is something of value in exchange of the real estate. Usually it is money. However, other consideration of value, such as other property in exchange, or a promise to perform (i.e. a promise to pay) is also satisfactory.
