repairs not included in closing costs

[jkcgtown]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TN

We have closed on a house. our real estate agent is charging us for a new entrance door lock and A/C repair ($290)on the house we already sold and closed on. Also he (the agent)wants a refrigerator i said he could have at first, but now we want to keep it. it was the previous owners second refrig, which they didn
t want. We have been in our new house for a month now...9/10ths of the law?
any advice on where we stand?

Houses are generally sold as is (provided there are not defects concealed by the seller). Neither of these sound like a defect (let alone a concealed one) Unless there was some specific contractural requirement to make these changes tell them to pound sand.

First off, the agent has no course of action. He might be attempting to get things for the buyer, the buyer will be the one who will need to bring legal action.

The refrigerator is an area of local custom. In some places, refrigerators are considered fixtures, and in that case, the one that was installed in the house when the contract was signed better be the one that was still there when you turned over the house. In other places, refrigerators are just furnishings, and you don't even tend to leave one there at all. In that case, unless the conveyance of a specific unit was in writing, there's no validity.

At this point, the onus is on the purchaser to pursue legal action if they want to press this. I'd sit and wait if it were me.

Unless you damaged the locks or the a/c on the way out the door, I don't see their claim. If they had a legal claim, this should have come up at closing.
