Does revoked mean cancel?

Yes, revoked means essentially the same as cancelled, but it's a more formal term, often used by an authority to officially withdraw or annul something previously granted, like a license, permit, agreement, or privilege, making it void from that point.

What are the six ways an offer can be terminated?

• a qualified or conditional acceptance by the offeree,
• a valid revocation of the offer by the offeror, and.

Yes, a buyer can back out of an accepted home offer, but it's much easier and often penalty-free if done within the timeframes and conditions of contingency clauses (like inspection, appraisal, or financing) in the contract; otherwise, they risk losing their earnest money deposit and potentially facing legal action for breach of contract. The key is using contingencies to create legitimate reasons to exit the legally binding agreement.
