Stained Carpets Concealed |

Edith,
I am wondering under the circumstance of our closing if there is any legal action and what it might cost to collect on the following senerio.
On Sunday, we had what was suppose to be a final walk through. The sellers had not moved any of ther things and the place was a piled up mess.
On Monday, we asked for a final walk through with the sellers belongings out of the way and the sellers refused to allow us to do so. At first we were just going to not close with them and thought a lot about it and decided to go on faith that they were not hiding anything and that the movers had not messed up anything.
Well when we got the keys and went to check out the house, it not only was not clean throughout, but the carpets have very larg stains on them and look really nasty. They must have had this covered up during our intial look at the house and certainly had them covered during our so called final walk through. We are very upset that the house was so dirty and more upset that the carpets will have to be replaced.
Going to look at replacement will be and a cheap scale of $2,000 - $3,000.
Is there anything we can do to make the sellers pay for this?
Thanks,
|

The amount you mention sounds just right for taking the sellers to small claims court, where you can represent yourselves at little cost and see what a judge has to say. Be sure to take along pictures of the stained carpets. Let me know what happens. I'm interested. |
