Man wins case in dispute over termites
Print Edition
A PROPERTY buyer who found termites in his newly bought flat won a lawsuit yesterday against the former owner of the flat who refused to pay back the money despite an agreement.
The Hongkou District People’s Court said yesterday that the former owner of the house, surnamed Li, had to be responsible for the flat’s quality. The court said since Li agreed to cancel the deal and return the money to the buyer surnamed Zhang, she must fulfill her agreement.
Zhang bought a ground floor flat for his elderly parents in May this year in Hongkou District, whose owner was Li. The two signed a contract and Zhang paid Li 400,000 yuan (US$61,719) as down payment. However, when Zhang checked the flat, some of the neighbors told him about the problems with termites inside.
He checked the flat and found termites under the wooden floor, inside the door frame and cabinet. Following the discovery, Li agreed to terminate their contract and return the money to Zhang after a week.
But Li regretted her decision and refused to pay Zhang the money.
