| How to get out of real estate contract? |
| I signed contract for house which found unusual(huge amount) of mold in attic.
Ther was elevated mold in basement in home inspection.
The seller agreed to basement mold remdiation - and agreed to fix part of
the roof which had mold. But he is asking me to pay5000$ for smaller roof - (which
had sagging sheathing - per home inspection)
I have asthma - and I am thinking that all this will still not fix the mold issue(and it will be there in other places that i did not test). I also did not do chimney - and sewer
test - which for all i know may have found other issues(in this outdated house)
So can i back out of this deal without loosing deposit.(I also signed addendum which asked for replacing roof sheathing in main roof - and sagging sheathing in other)
So can i get out of this contract without loosing deposit ? (but my agent says that he is supposedly fixing the issue - but i think not in the way i want) |
| Do i have the legal right to evict my moms boyfriend so that i can take possession of the house and |
| Since the beginning of this process i''ve been told that i have the legal right to take possession of the property i inherited by means of evicting my moms boyfriend. (My mom left me her house and Land in a will before she passed away) Its been a long process and now im finding out that the defendant has filed for an appearance on the writ of possession. I only had to give him 30 days but i gave him 37. Is there anything that could go wrong with me trying to remove him from the property. I dont understand why his Lawyer would file for an appearance if i have the legal right to take possession of the property. |

| The deed was signed 7 years ago.....the ex-girlfriends continues to pay the mortgage,but the house is up for sale. My son stopped making payments when he signed over the deed. Here is the question: How can he get his name off the mortgage, off credit reports, etc. He''d like to buy a condominium but can''t with his hanging over his head. If he signed the quit claim deed, shouldn''t his name be removed from everything concerning the property ? |

| I need representation in El Paso County, Colorado. Contract for Deed was signed in Feb 2011 and was never filed with the court nor was escrow account set up for taxes. I have a legal right to cancel this contract and receive all funds back. I have researched the law, I just need it filed ASAP. I cannot insure the home nor get utilities for the tenants I have in it now because the assessor does not show that I OWN the home. The CFD was notarized. Someone please help. I have contacted many lawyers and have received no response!! |
