Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
In 1996 my husband and I purchased a mobile home on 1.9 acres. When the lady from the bank was talking to me on the phone, she said the bank would finance it for 15 years. Well, that bank got bought out by another bank, when I called in July they wanted 59,000 all at once. I guess it was in the contract, but it really wasn't explained to us when we closed on the deal. We also had a personal loan with the bank which is up to date, it has never been late. I told the lady at the bank in July that since my husband and i are on Social Security we didn't have the money so I guess we would have to move. The house is in Hamilton County, Florida. Now they have filed a lawsuit against us. What can we do? We now live in Georgia in a house that was given to my sister and i when our Mother died.
