If you back out without cause, the buyer can bring legal action for breach of contract. That means you could be facing a lawsuit where the buyer seeks compensation. Depending on the buyer, the lawsuit may seek financial compensation or even specific performance, forcing you to sell your home.
If a title cloud does turn up after the sale, it is possible the buyer can hold the seller liable for the problems. Most deeds used in home sales come with a guarantee. In California, for example, the document of choice is a grant deed.
