A: Once an offer is properly accepted by the seller, a valid contract is formed. You did not explain as to why the buyer wanted to see the other offers. If the buyer is thinking of revoking his or her offer after being accepted, in other words rescinding a valid contract. It can be rescinded by fraud, misrepresentation, unconscionability and other standard theories of defense to a contract formation. Consult a local business lawyer. Good luck.
