Q: Husband and I bought a flipped home a month ago and now the house is falling apart
The hvac was supposed to be fixed on inspection it has stopped working, the roof was said to be new it now has water damage the ceiling fan in the bathroom has fallen out the siding has fallen off where it wasn't secured correctly. What are our options can we get the company that flipped the house to help cover any of these costs?
A: It depends almost entirely on the terms of your contract, although you should also investigate possible fraudulent repair activity and violations of the Consumer Protection Act. You need a consult with a lawyer to review your closing package and the facts of the case. Your question is posed as a Virginia question, where I am licensed, but the Justia software says you are in Philadelphia, where I went to college and grad school 40 years ago, but am not licensed. Where is the property? You can email me at Richard@MWLC.org to schedule a consult.
