Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

New construction deposit

The home I'm about to buy is being

built, about 50% complete. I was

told that if I don't get approved then

I would get my deposit back. I was

also told that I'll get a view but I

don't think we'll get much of a view

at all due to the fact that homes are

being built in front of us in the same

community. I left a $10,000 deposit

before construction and about 50%

deposit for upgrades, which is

roughly another $4000. A total of

about $14000. I signed the contract

without any contingencies. It's in

escrow until Oct. 2008, the time the

house is expected to finish. Now I

want to back out and get my deposit

back, what should I do?
