Hi Dale! Sounds like a frustrating situation. The answer to your question is... maybe. It all depends on how the contract is written and how your state has interpreted said contracts in the past.
Some contracts allow ways to back out of the contract. For example; inspections, appraisals, and the ability to finance are common contingencies in my neck of the woods.
My best advice would be to reach out to an attorney that specializes in real estate. They will likely want copies of the contract and ask questions to better understand your situation.
Good luck and God Bless!
