Q: Buying a new construction home from a builder in Missouri. I point out mistakes they tell me they will fix it but don't
I have pointed out a small handful of poor workmanship on the construction of my new residential property. During the pre-drywall walkthrough I was told by the foreman that the things I pointed out would be fixed. When I did my next walkthrough the new foreman told me they would not be fixed and an inspector said it was okay anyway. I have asked to see the inspection report and/or contact info for the company who did the inspection. I feel lied to and concerned about what could be wrong with the home that I didn't see. Any help/referrals would be appreciated.
A: You should contact an attorney to review your contract and as a first step try to negotiate with the seller. Through Justia, we are not able to solicit or recommend any attorneys. You'll need to contact an attorney directly. Look for someone with contract and real estate experience.
