[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Then how are all these instances of building contracts being backed out of around the country happening?[/quote]

Contingencies and other contract conditions, typically, even if used as a sham excuse. OP does not have that here, she is trying to get the builders to commit to something that just isn’t in the contract. There are buyers who outright violate the contract, and it’s not uncommon for sellers to demand more money to settle a possible lawsuit. The sour relationship between OP and the other parties isn’t going to help in cutting her some slack if she tries to walk away.

[quote=Anonymous]I would immediately spend a few hundred dollars and consult a real estate attorney on what your options are per your contract.  Them refusing to prove that they fixed them, either through photos or a follow-up inspection, is very shady.  This is too big an issue and the dollars will be well worth it in a purchase that costs substantially more than that. [/quote]

If you’re heading toward backing out, definitely do this first. You need to understand your options and the risks you’re taking.

[quote=Anonymous]Should the addendum include that photos or a walkthrough will be given? Right now, they have said we will not negotiate a walkthrough. They want us to decide if we want the inspection still and sign it. [/quote]

Why not send back a revised addendum with an extra few words, specifying that they’ll provide written documentation for each corrected item that includes an attached photo? People have been suggesting that you insist on correction photos, rather than a second walkthrough, since the first page. This would be a clear and firm way of doing that. [/quote]

OP here. We sent an email today stating we need photos or a walkthrough. Unfortunately, we didn't understand what's acceptable, i.e., pictures or a walkthrough. The sales agent said there would be photos in the report, but she also said to wait for the VP to reach out to us to explain the process because she wasn't 100 percent sure. Last night he did not mention there would be photos, but we just heard back from the VP that they will include photos of corrections; however, it's not in the addendum. Thank you so much for all of your help. This has been extremely stressful. This whole week I have barely ate anything. I am losing weight.

You're doing a great job fighting for this. Remember that and you got what you wanted/ needed. [/quote]

You did the impossible. Go eat![/quote]
