It is not clear from your question, but it appears that this may be related to your purchase of the real estate, and the contract to which you are referring is your purchase agreement. If this is the case, you may be out of luck, since generally, all matters are deemed to be "merged" into the deed that was presented at closing. You should contact the attorney who represented you in the real estate transaction to determine if this is the case.
