Seller's Pre-Transfer Repair Obligation Supersedes Future Renovation Clause
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA contractual provision stipulated that the buyer of certain assets would be responsible for all future necessary renovations, but the seller later failed to perform necessary urgent repairs prior to the sale, leading to a dispute when the buyer sought to recover the cost of those immediate repairs from the seller. The court held that the seller's obligation to perform necessary urgent repairs prior to the transfer of ownership superseded the general contractual stipulation assigning future renovation costs to the buyer, as the seller was legally obliged to deliver the property in a suitable condition, thereby upholding the buyer's claim for reimbursement of the emergency repairs.
