The purpose of a contract is to make the agreement binding on the parties. There are generally provisions in a contract that allow cancellation under specific conditions. They revolve around contingencies, most commonly an inspection and financing.
Beyond that a buyer can cancel a contract but will likely lose any deposit. Even then it is possible for the seller to sue for nonperformance.
