Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

We put a deposit on a house we were going to rent and they told us we had 24 hours to back out and get the deposit back. A week later we receive the lease and it says we will be responsible for property taxes on the property on top of our rent. Can we get our deposit back because we will be paying more than the rental amount agreed for the property?
