Q: Can we recupe money from a lay-a-way on a log home if the company has changed hands 3 times?
My husband and I have been paying on a log home lay-a-way for 15 years with the intention of retiring. Now due to health & monetary issues we cannot build the home. The representative has told us that we can only get a small portion of our money back. Is there anything we can do?
A: Without a review of the agreement you have in writing with the company and a general lack of specific information on this problem, there's not much information that can be provided here. You should consult with a real estate attorney or an attorney familiar with land contracts to review your agreement and advise you on your rights. There may be additional solutions available to you.
