Realty Dispute Issues:

Question: What should I do if the seller will not close my Ontario property deal or leaves it in broom swept condition?

Answer: If a realty transaction in Ontario is failing to close or the property is left in broom swept condition, you should gather the purchase agreement, any inspection reports, correspondence with the seller, and closing documents, then ask Legacy Legal Services for timely guidance on your rights, possible damages, and whether an order for specific performance or other remedies may be available for your facts.  The earlier legal papers and evidence are organized, the better positioned you are to respond to missed deadlines, fixture or chattel disputes, or disclosure issues that commonly drive litigation.  For help with your real estate dispute, call (226) 246-3825 to speak with a real estate lawyer or licensed paralegal serving clients across Ontario.
