Q: a real estate attorney for an FHA loan fraud case? GIVE OUR CASE A CHANCE. We are about to give up.exhausted all options
Looking for a real estate attorney to represent an FHA loan fraud case. In 2024, I bought a new home and found several issues: missing smoke detectors, water damage, a large hole in the wall, and an inoperative AC, which violates FHA loan requirements. The seller's disclosure didn't mention the AC issue, conflicting with HUD Handbook 4000.1. The appraisal also missed this, suggesting the lender relied on flawed info. The appraiser didn't check for an easement or appliances, and the comparable homes used were unlike ours. Despite raising these concerns, we've had no response. We're now seeking legal action against the lender and possibly the appraiser for their negligence. One step away from giving up…can someone please help us, we have spent the last 8 months doing research and gathering data and making phone calls and cannot find a REAL ESTATE ATTORY for this case let alone a lawyer to even look at the evidence we have…WE HAVE PLENTY of evidence to back up our claims for all violation
