Help I need advice regarding completion of my purchase of property.?

Question

Yesterday 26 March i was at the property in question with vendor, who informed me that as i was paying less than he had originaly wanted, he was no longer going to fit an alarm system or have any landscaping done to property. At my second inspection of property prior to signing an agreement to purchase the vendor had shown me around "Here will be some grass, up there some trees/plants and of course an alarm system. Before signing the contract he reneged on something he offerd ie fridge and microwave which i made the mistake of signing. I find this man i am dealing with is of
very poor character and yes yesterday i found out i wont be
getting the things he originally promised me. Can he get away with this? Help Cheyenne

Answer 1

One question: What does the contract say he has to do?

If it's not in the contract, he doesn't have to do it. If it is, he does.

If you don't like it, you may still be able to exit the transaction, but check with someone familiar with the situation and laws in your state. You may lose your deposit if you do so without acceptable reason.

Ask yourself if it's still worth doing with what you're getting, less what you have at risk.

Answer 2

In order to give you a better answer, I would need some more details (ei. state where this transaction has occurred, is this a brand new house?, is the "vendor" the building company?, are you using a realtor?).
In a real estate deal, everything must be in written. If the contract you signed did not include specifically all the items you have mentioned, it would be very hard for you to find a way to get them. You would have a better chance if you find any kind of printed information (flyers, adds, etc) in which the vendor describe this home with all the items you are not getting, this documentation will help you if you decide to take this case to arbitration.
If you are doing this purchase using a Realtor, ask for you TDS (in California or a similar document in any other state), your realtor must know what this is; basicaly this is a document that describes in detail what else you are buying besides the land and the structure; in other words it should describe if the home is to keep appliances (decribed individually), landscaping, etc.
This is one of the reasons why a realtor should be hired, in most states the seller is the one that pays the realtor's commission, as a buyer hiring a realtor is like hiring a professional advisor for free.

Answer 3

Where are you doing the closing? If it's a Title Company, see if they have an attorney on staff. Ask an attorney to review the contract and see what's actually there. You should never signa contract without an attorney to review it. If it's not in the contract then you're SOL, but if it is then he has to install those things. Good Luck!

Answer 4

If it is not on paper, you may be out of luck this time. Make sure that all of your transactions are on PAPER. I cannot stress that enough. From now on, you need to have them put anything and everything in writing...dated and signed. You may want to speak with your mortgage officer or an attorney to see what you can legally do.

Answer 5

ALWAYS get stuff in writing! I doubt he is breaking any laws, he definitely is a scumbag though! Sorry this happened to you, I too believe what people say too much. I have been screwed over a few times myself. Oh well, you live and learn! Congrats on your new home!
