房子FLOOR AREA 和实际不符合如何处理?

苹果醋

刚买的房子, 付了定金, 中介的广告说是floor area 190平方米. 现在想去买保险的时候才发现, 实际的floor area是165平方, 问中介说的是包括车库, 但是车库不是internal的. 我可以找他们减价吗?和律师说?请问有经验的兄弟姐妹指教了, 谢谢.

假装多好

我们家面积也是包括车库 保险减30m^2

得看你们签的合约怎么写的，如果合约属实你自己没看就白瞎了

如果是独立在房子外面的车库，不应该算在floor area以内。可以找律师给中介发信。协商降价是最容易解决的办法。

這可能是AGENT 故意誤導。一般來說獨立的車庫是不算的。合約可能還是要進行，但如果誤導行為是成立的，對方要賠償損失。

I have just talked to my solicitor. He said that this issue is not critical to the value of the house, so he is not going to do anything for us.
But I still think it is unfair and this is definitly a misleading advertisment from agent. What else we can do? any professional suggestions? thanks

If misleading can be prooved, the agent is in breach of section 9 of Fair Trading Act 1986. The spirit of the legislation is to prevent misleading trade practices.

Although the value of the house may not be affected, the law is requiring more than that. By misleading you on the house area, they are giving themselves more chance than their competitors. For example, if the house next door is exactly the same, and their "honest" agent listed the house to be 165m2, they are putting themselves in a more difficult marketing position. And potential buyers like you, would be more likely to dismiss their offers due to the false information given out by the "misleading" agent. This outcome is unfair to competitiors and buyers.

But involving the lawyers will only cost more money, its up to you whether you want to upscale this issue.
