Investors & landlords

We don't practice real estate law on this forum.

The ability to rescind a contract, and in particular real estate, is a standard practice but the time frame will vary by state.

Edit:  The ability to rescind a contract is available in certain circumstances; failure to disclose material facts, misrepresentations, to name a few instances.

Contact your real estate agent or read your contract.
