Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Indiana

Re: legality of house seller's action

Depending on the contract language, you may have a suit. Most contracts require fixtures to stay, and security systems are usually considered as fixtures.

Re: legality of house seller's action

It depends on what your agreement was with respect to the house security system. It might have been mentioned in the sale agreement or not. If not, there may be an argument that it is a fixture and therefore something that should not have been removed. Further inquiry would be required before I could say for sure.
