We've got a contract on a block at the moment, the RE Agent rings me this afternoon and says that the vendor would like us to sign off on the covenants. This is the first I have heard of the estate having a covenant. It was never mentioned when we looked at the land or even when I first rang the RE Agent about the block and there was nothing mentioned in the contract of sale.
I'm guessing that the vendor can't get me to sign off on them now that it wasn't bought up prior to the contract of sale being entered into?
I've sent an email to my Solicitor but being this time on a Friday afternoon I'm not expecting an answer before Monday, so I was hoping that someone on here had this happen to them and can shed some light on it.
