Contact the other party and ask whether they are willing to negotiate the cancellation of the contract. Offer the other party an incentive to cancel the contract for deed.

Some real estate contracts have a liquidated damages clause that states the maximum the seller can keep if the buyers breach the contract.
The buyer should record the contract for deed with the county recorder where the land is located and does so normally within four months after the contract is signed, though the time may vary depending on state law.
A disadvantage to the seller is that a contract for deed is frequently characterized by a low down payment and the purchase price is paid in installments instead of one lump sum.The legal fees and time frame for this process will be more extensive than a standard Power of Sale foreclosure.
If your seller simply will not fill out the form after you advise them of the requirement to do so, you can have them mark refused on the form, and then provide that to the buyer.
Other benefits include: no loan qualifying, low or flexible down payment, favorable interest rates and flexible terms, and a quicker settlement.

"Although this will cause some pushback and sometimes isn't looked at as the most ethical, a seller can legally still accept any other offer up until attorney review conclude as the deal isn't officially under contract." For the most part, though, buyers more commonly back out of contracts rather than sellers.
