Duplex Seller Repairs

[Michael Valenzuela]

Hello All,

We are purchasing a duplex and agreed to the seller making the repairs(went against our better judgement). We thought we had outlined everything within the TRX1903 form. What we did not think of was that the seller would pay himself labor. We agreed to move the price of the house up from our original offer to include the repairs and what was not used would be given to us at closing. The seller only used half of the amount on the materials. We were very specific on providing receipts of all the work and outlined that the seller would be doing the repairs. We wanted to hire someone, but he was adamant that he would be doing the repairs. He provided receipts for the material and just sent us a excel document for labor. Do we have to accept this?
