What is the name of your state? Kansas
When our new home was being built, we had stated that we would pay for the sod, well (everything included in getting a well to work), etc., out of our own pockets. My husband and the mortage broker discussed us rolling everything into the loan and using the money to put down on the loan so that we could get a lower interest rate. The Real Estate broker in the area stated we could do that and the builder agreed.
Two weeks after we closed and moved into our home, the real estate broker and the builder came over and said, "Oops, we forgot to add the pump the the loan and you owe me $1500." Not to mention everything that was estimated to us came out "way"over the estimate, so we did not feel at closing that there was something missing. We put down what we thought we would be putting down.
Do we owe this? I feel that when you close, you close. Except for things that needed to be repaired that was written down at walk through, which took me mentioning the words "attorney" to get fixed since he took 5 months to repair. The last of the repairs have been done and now the builder is saying we need to settle up on this bill.
Sorry so long, but we are at our wits end and don't know what is legal. Heck, they could come back in a few months and say "oops we forgot to add another bill and you need to pay it". Any advice would be greatly appreciated. LG What is the name of your state? KansasWhat is the name of your state?
