If you and the seller both mutually agree to cancel the contract, you may be able to legally dissolve it unscathed. Depending on what the issue is, you might also consider renegotiating with the seller and revising the contract to better meet both parties' needs.
Only certain very limited types of contracts can be canceled, within three business days after signing.
