Hello,
My wife and I bought a single family home in October 2022. There were foundation repairs done to the house back in 2012 and the seller stated in the seller disclosure that the repair comes with a lifetime warranty and I was told that all I needed is to transfer the warranty after we owned the home. After the sale is completed, I called the foundation company to find out that the warranty was already voided because the seller did not transfer the warranty from the owner before him within 90 days after he bought house, and now I am required to pay $3000 to reinstate the warranty.
We already tried to contact the seller through his selling agent but received no response.
I am looking for an attorney to have them send a demand letter to the seller, but I am not sure if it is worth it after attorney fees and etc, or if there are other ways besides a demand letter.
Thanks,
John
