Can I Back Out of a Sale if I’ve Already Accepted an Offer?
Accepting the home purchase offer doesn’t guarantee that the home sale will be completed. According to the most recent statistics from Forbes, about 3.9% of home sales failed nationally in 2016. Fortunately, real estate agreements often have contingencies in place that permit the seller to back out of a deal under certain circumstances. However, there may be repercussions or possible penalties.
