Yes, the seller can back out but he should reimburse all the payments you've made including interests and damages, if his reasons for backing out is unjustifiable. Or, if you want him to continue with the sale, you can file a “specific performance” case in court against him so that the court may compel him to abide with the terms of your agreement.
