Real estate fraud is the intentional deception in a real estate transaction that leads to financial loss. It can involve misrepresentation, concealment, or forged documents. In many cases a thorough review of documents and disclosures helps determine remedies and next steps. A careful assessment of contracts, disclosures, and title reports informs the strategy and potential remedies available to you.
California law sets deadlines for filing fraud and real estate claims, and the exact timeline depends on the nature of the claim and when you discovered the issue. Consult with a California real estate attorney promptly to determine the applicable deadlines and preserve your rights.
Damages can include direct financial losses, costs to fix defects, and in some cases incidental costs associated with the transaction. In certain situations, you may also seek rescission of the contract or other remedies such as attorney’s fees or restoration of title.
