When selling a house; what happens if you change your mind and decide you don't want to sell? Can you get out of the deal before the closing date ????

Sir/Madame, Your rights are determined by the terms of any signed contract. Many contracts have contingencies that allow termination, however, most contingencies or termination rights favor the Buyer, not the Seller. Each case is different and depends upon the terms of the contract. However, mere changing one's mind does not permit a Seller to avoid his contractual obligations to sell the property. You should be cautious; if you default, Buyers can seek remedies such as specific performance, damages, attorney's fees and costs.
