The OP didn't say that it was an "as-is" contract, so, without confirming, that is a fairly large assumption. I have never purchased a house with an as-is contract.
Everyone seems to be speculating and confused. In Florida, the "as-is" contract is the most common one used. The buyer has an inspection period to "inspect" the property and can cancel the contract for any reason. We do not know the specifics of the OP's contract. However, the OP said that he was allowed to cancel the contract.
