Seller's Unilateral Rescission of Preliminary Sale Agreement

A seller transferred ownership of a property to a buyer by signing a preliminary sale agreement that included a clause allowing the buyer to withdraw under specific, agreed-upon conditions, but the seller later unilaterally rescinded the agreement before the final deed was executed. The court reasoned that the preliminary agreement, even if not a final deed of sale, was nevertheless a binding contract, and the seller could not unilaterally withdraw from the agreed commitment based on terms that were not contemplated or stipulated within the contract itself, thus upholding the buyer's right to enforce the sale.
