Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Indiana

Selling of Mobile Homes laws

My wife and I purchased a mobile home on April 17th of this year. The seller said we would receive a clear title for same on April 19th. We still haven't received it. He said the company that sold it to him still has it and has lost it. He said the trailer was 59 by 14 feet. It's 52 by 14. He said the Central Air worked great, it doesn't. It won't even cool the home. We had to purchase a window air conditioner to go with it. If we take him to small claims court to get our $2000 purchase price back, can we? Please let me know as soon as possible because I'm taking him to small claims court and get my money back if you say we can. Thank you for any help you can give us. Please email and let me know what to do. Thanks again! [email protected]

Re: Selling of Mobile Homes laws

Sounds like you really need or want to rescind the transaction. Small claims courts really do not have the authority to order rescission but since the amount is so small, it is likely that the judge would give the seller the option of giving you your money back or paying damages. Go to your local small claims court.
