The contract establishes the rules for the purchase but does not finalize it. Contracts generally include certain conditions that must be satisfied before the sale actually takes place and if they are not met the contract is cancelled or penalties may be instituted. For example, a contract may be voided if the buyer is unable to obtain a mortgage or if the seller fails to make specified house repairs.

Other than the above, getting out of a contract requires discussion with the other party and with an attorney and may involve financial penalties.
