Contracts
In a TREC residential contract, if the buyer's lender-required repairs exceed the seller's agreed repair limit and the parties cannot agree, the buyer's remedy is typically:
AThe buyer must accept the property as-is
BThe buyer may terminate and receive the earnest money back if they cannot reach agreement✓ Correct
CThe seller is required to make all repairs regardless of cost
DTREC mediates the dispute
Explanation
TREC contracts contain provisions addressing what happens when repairs cannot be agreed upon. If the seller refuses repairs exceeding the agreed limit and the parties cannot reach a new agreement, the buyer typically has the right to terminate and recover their earnest money, subject to the contract terms.
