A: Your purchase Contract should have a provision for an inspection period. Hopefully you are still within your inspection period and if so, under the terms of the Contract, you should be able to give notice to the Seller, cancel the Contract and get a refund of your deposit. It may be worth your while to review it with an attorney.
