The Shocking Story of a $20 Million Newlywed House Nightmare

For the purpose of his son’s marriage, Mr. Huang and his wife, who live in Baoshan District, Shanghai, mainland China, helped buy a wedding house last year. When it was time to renovate it, they found that the beautiful house had changed drastically. Mr. Huang recently brought the media to the house on the top floor. As soon as he opened the door, he introduced the miserable condition of the house. He saw white mold clinging to the water stains in the second bedroom, covering almost half of the wall, and the mold was growing. The fur and the wall skin next to it also began to slowly fall off.

According to mainland media reports, Mr. Huang said that he originally thought that this house was a quasi-new house that had never been lived in or rented out, so he spent 6 million yuan (approximately NT$26.45 million) to buy it for his son as a wedding house. Because I knew that the biggest hidden danger on the attic was water seepage, I took a closer look at it and found that the top was completely white with no traces of water seepage. Unexpectedly, when a decoration team came to the house more than three months later, the house was completely different.

Mr. Huang immediately found the property. The other party said that the house had been repaired twice for leaks under the previous owner and had never been repaired. However, the house transaction contract signed by Mr. Huang, the owner and the intermediary stated clearly in black and white. “The house has never leaked.” The agent said that they knew nothing about the water leakage and were willing to compensate up to 20,000 yuan in accordance with the terms promised when the contract was signed.

In order to completely eradicate and repair the leakage problem, Mr. Huang found three companies for evaluation. The repair quotations were all over 50,000 yuan. He believed that the previous owner and the agent should jointly bear the repair costs. The seller, Mr. Yan, admitted that the house had indeed leaked, but he had repaired it. Since he had repaired it, there was no need to inform the agent or buyer. Since there was no consensus between the two parties, Mr. Huang decided to defend his rights through legal channels.

In this regard, the lawyer explained that the seller has the obligation to inform the buyer. If he fails to inform the buyer in the sales contract that there is a major water leakage hazard, he is in breach of contract. The water leakage problem should be considered a defect in the performance of the house purchase and sale contract. There are only two types of defects, one is to compensate, and the other is to make up for the defect yourself; and the intermediary, as a middleman, because of the work Omissions result in the house information not being verified and clearly communicated to the buyer, for which the buyer needs to bear some responsibility.
