Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Georgia
Enforcing an unsigned contract
A retail installment contract was never executed by the seller, then sold numerous times to various finance houses, the latest of whom is now trying to foreclose, even though my total payments to date are greater than what was required under the initial agreement, though in arrears. There is no prepayment penalty, nor anything saying that they are entitled to offset payments in advance, against principal and then foreclose when I am in arrears.

Re: Enforcing an unsigned contract
The fact that the contract was not signed by the seller will probably me immaterial is they are trying to enforce its terms against you as the buyer. I would have to review the contract to give you a complete answer because the terms of the contract would apply.
