Buyer’s Remorse? What to Know About Canceling a Contract on a New Florida Condo (Rescission Rights)

Florida is not a broad “cooling-off” state for real estate. In luxury condominium transactions, exit rights tend to come from two places: narrow statutory cancellation windows for condos and the contract contingencies you negotiate before you sign.
