[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 567314, member: 1233"] Buying a home is about the most frustrating contract law that I think our system has. When we sold our first house the sale almost didn't happen right at the last minute. The buyer had a heart attack that morning. He actually flatlined on the OR table at the exact time of the closing! We were told we could ask for all sorts of damages and costs to be paid by him. Reality was that we were not out any money because he recovered and was ready to close ten days later. We couldn't figure out why we were suddenly supposed to ask for money for these other thigns that could have happened but didn't. We did NOT ask for damages because he was unable to close. We were not out anything at all, and the delay was annoying, but little more for us. So we closed the same deal ten days later. we were really confused about why we were supposed to get more money from the man, esp as we incurred no expenses. Our real estate agent didn't incur any expenses either or we would have asked for what she was out of. I hope that whatever happens, you have less stress very soon! [/QUOTE]
