Closed on home repairs weren’t done
My husband and I closed on a house in October. We noticed a few things when moving in that we thought were fixed at closing per our repair addendum. We had a contractor come out to look at the issue and he gave us a quote and said that nothing that we had asked to be fixed was fixed. We asked the contractor to come out that had supposedly done the work. He told us that he was only told about one of the issues on our addendum. The issue that we’re having to fix is foundational! I then contacted the sellers real estate agent and she was cooperative until the point that I asked for the correspondence between her and the contractor that they used. I’ve contacted our real estate agent and he said that he’s going to give me some advice tomorrow, but I’ve been waiting for a while. What should I do? We are very low income and really can’t afford a lawsuit right now.
