Situation — How This Comes Up

The HOA gave my buyer an inaccurate estoppel certificate and now the closing is in jeopardy.

What You Need to Know First

A resale certificate or estoppel letter that contains inaccurate information about outstanding assessments, violations, or pending litigation can expose the HOA to liability — and can cloud the transaction.
