I bought a townhouse in Orange County, California. It’s a new construction to be finished later this year. Escrow is in December 2008.
I signed an amendment to change the clerical error in the contract. They slipped an amendment saying that escrow will close 7 days later than signed. I didn’t notice this until after I signed. I should have read carefully.
Builder emphasized only the clerical error was modified by mouth.
Can’t the builder catch up 5 days of workday in the next 8 months? Or is this some sinister trick that will cost me later?
I don’t mind moving in one week later, but I find this tactic disturbing.
Did the builder cheat me? Builder is Brookfields.
Thanks.
