Hi,
I posted before about the laundry room smell. That seems to be fine. They capped off the open sewer lines. The walls of the room were damp. They are saying that they met all the conditions for closing and I don’t feel they have cause of the wet walls- evidently there is grading that needs to be done. We can’t get out of the contract. How does one get out of a contract?
I think we hate the place now- how will we ever like it?

Hi,
my husband and I are closing on a house soon. The problem is this- they removed the washer-dryer and now there is a weird funky chemical/musty smell in the laundry room. There is also a floor drain in there. Their realtor told us we should deal with it after we close. I thought that was not such a good idea. What could it be? Should I have the inspector come back?
thanks,

Hi,
are there any legal problems I would encounter if I decided to start seeing clients at my co-op apartment?
thanks,

Hi,
It is a really small, self- managed co-op. We are trying to make everything equal. Usually, one apartment is the super for the month. Some apartments have tenants, instead of being owner occupied. I know a lot of co-ops charge to keep the units owner occupied. We are trying to find an equitable way of doing this. How much do co-ops usually charge for not living there?
Thanks,
