Realty Issues Commonly Leading to Legal Action

When a realty deal goes awry, legal disputes often arise.  In some circumstances the seller of a property may suffer losses and in other circumstances it is the buyer that suffers harm.  Regardless of which side of a troubled realty transaction you are on, professional legal advice should be sought.

• The failure to close in broom swept condition;
• The failure to close whereas a buyer abandons the agreement;
• The improper removal of fixtures or certain chattels prior to closing;
• The failure to properly close a pool or perform other maintenance;
• The failure to disclose details regarding a latent defect; and
• The improper concealment of a patent defect.
