We also have timeframes for the Seller’s disclosures with time given to the Buyer for their review.If the Buyer isn’t comfortable with the inspections and disclosures, they can request additional time to investigate the situation.If the Buyer finds that the repairs are excessive or information in the disclosures are unacceptable, they can cancel the agreement within the allotted time specified in the contract and receive a refund on their escrow deposit minus any escrow or title fees incurred.I would recommend that an experienced Real Estate Attorney review your purchase contract and hopefully help you cancel this deal and get your deposit back.* Note * In California, the Buyer’s review time is extended if additional disclosures are provided by the Sellers beyond the allotted time in the contract.
