Seller Refused To Pay For Pest Control, Backs Out
My father recently decided he wanted to buy a house. There was a sales contract made both parties agreed and signed. When the house was inspected it was noted that it was in need of termite control. The seller agreed to take care of the problem. When the inspectors came in they noticed that the sewer line needed work. They estimated it needed 6,000 dollars worth of work. When the seller was notified of this he agreed to credit my father 5,000 dollars but refused to pay for the termite control. Now he wants to back out of the deal, it just went into escrow.
What rights is my father entitled to? Is the seller obligated to sale the house and take care of the problems? What should my father do in this situation.
Any amount of help would be appreciated.
Thanks In Advance.
