Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

Home-Inspection and Right to terminate

I signed an agreement to buy a residential property (Single Family Home) in Georgia. The property is being ''Sold with Right to Request Repairs''.

On Home inspection the inspector noted few rotten window sils, damaged window hermetic seals and a damaged glass.
If the seller refuses to repair the above issues , can I terminate the agreement?

Re: Home-Inspection and Right to terminate

Probably not, although it depends on the language of the agreement. More likely, you will have a breach of contract claim for failure to make the repairs.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
