Flipping properties can be taxing

You won a bidding war for a home last night and paid $400,000. You receive a call the next morning from one of the losing bidders, stating that they will pay you $425,000 for the same property. Your deal is not supposed to close for two months. Can the first buyer do this and make $25,000?
