What are our legal options? " asks a first time buyer. This is truly a sad question on Trulia Voices...
The home owner's first question is "Who's going to pay for this?"
He was a buyer but the property closed. He is a homeowner.
Further down the new homeowner asks
Q: "What are our legal options? "
A: Talk to an attorney....
Do attorneys answer questions on Trulia Voices?
Synopsis he and his wife bought their first home, a Freddie Mac foreclosure from the listing agent. On Trulia he says the agent (the agent was acting as a dual agent according to the buyer) told the buyers Freddie Mac would have to make the home habitable. The septic system which he describes as a grinder, lifter and pump.... is not operating. I purposely made it small...
The buyer says his home inspector did or did not check the septic system*
This first time buyer, now a homeowner asks on Trulia "What are our legal options? "
Other than to say "call an attorney and ask what are your legal options are now. " what can anyone answering questions on Trulia Voices say to this buyer?
Call that attorney that reviewed your real estate contract and ask : "What are our legal options now? "
There area questions that should have / could have come up during the transaction. What did your attorney advise during the inspection period about the home inspection, septic inspection, anyother inspections conducted on the property?
Contact the attorney you used to look over those closing documents from the bank / Freddie Mac.
If you bought your home through someone who is a member of the Columbus Board of REALTORS, at the very top there is a statement advising you to use an attorney.
If you did not use an attorney during the transaction...., if you need the names of a local real estate attorneys? A real estate attorney can answer "What are our legal options? " now , after the closing.
Real estate agents can not practice law. Have a legal problem? Want to know your legal options? Contact an attorney, I can recommend attorneys.
* This home was a foreclosure and was not on city sewer. It does not sound as if they had the septic system tested. That is not part of the usual home inspection.
