图一最后一段第三行：Purchaser agrees that if the sale is not closed becaus
any of Purchaser's obiligations herein, Pruchaser shall forthwith pay Brokers the full commission immediately, provided taht Brokers may first apply up to one-half of the earnest Money.......
the damage is well localized; you can see the worst case spot where the subfloor disintergrated, that's where water came through. nothing to do with exterior wall.
you probably want to tear up the bathroom floor, 4-6 square foot. you have to do it anyway because you have to get rid of the rotten subfloor. Then you can see the beam better. The worst case you put a beam under the existing beam to support it. The secondary beam sits on some concrete blocks.
明天要过户了，前天跟卖家代理提出退出，卖家代理说根据合同我们要赔他10%的佣金2万一千。
我以为最多损失2千的定金，原来还要加上10%的佣金。
是因为当了20多年contractor 的亲戚看了这房子，说外墙里面肯定已经烂了，木窗沿都霉烂了，（他用小刀刺木头），他说卖家涂上墙漆掩盖起来了。
而且他认为地基也坏了。
洗澡间地下的木头确实烂了。
我以为总共10万开墙，重新置换一新，3个空调，4个浴间，两个厨房可以拿下来。但现在顾虑外墙里面坏了。
大家看看合同，有什么办法退出少赔偿吗？
看看能否抓点卖家的毛病。比如说该disclosed 没disclosed 的。那样就好谈。这种时候花点律师费，值。最坏最坏，也就是两万，就当交个学费。
可以退出.

你是否指几百块可以修复这个？
这地面的木板都是会换掉的。也不是太大的事儿。
但是你说有地基问题，呢就不好办了。
到现在合同对你不利是肯定的。你得找律师看。这只是中介要你的钱。卖方没卖出去还得找你呢。以后他卖的比现在低，可以搞你要差价。你在这儿问没太大用。
卖家要有disclosure. 这种漏水的事情不是一天两天了。如果disclosure没有提到，如果你能证明对方应该知道，你可以做文章。 另外提一句，做房地产别为了省小钱亏大钱。特别是你这样的没有太多的经验的买家去直接找dual agent的。碰到一个公平的listing agent或者没有发生问题还好。碰到问题了，LA绝对不会站在你这边的。 还有一点，就是任何合同签字都要认认真真读懂，不理解的问你的经纪或者律师。别不懂就签了对自己不利的条文。
unless you have termites because of the humidity, wetness itself does not damage the wood more than a thin layer from the surface.
This beam is more substantial than needed to carry the weight above.
you can install two metal post and a horizontal beam in the shape of "pi" immediately after the beam.
For myself, i just fix the pipe and replace rotted subfloor, and redo the floor of the bathroom.

外墙都有渗水问题。他估计里面木头都烂了。但我们又不能拆墙看。
the beam is probable twice the size of new houses. a little bit of surface rot does not need replacement.
这个房子估计再卖不出这个价。那么卖方以此告她，这个差价可能也得补。记得两年前看见个案例，毁约的买方大概了十万多块。
直到上家买家70年代买下来，装修的时候盖上胶合板拉到。
亲戚说外墙到处都有墙纸边缘卷起，那是因为屋顶漏水到外墙里面潮湿引起的。我觉得有可能是胶水干了，80年代的墙纸，时间长了，墙纸边缘可能干了，卷起。但他是20多年修屋建房经验的，不敢质疑他。有一个房间的窗子跟地板变成85度角，他说地基肯定rotten了。但我站上去跳几下，还很稳的。

做了20多年contractor的亲戚，我估计他不会耍我。他人在外州，不会帮我们装修。但我觉得你比他有经验。
这房子状况不好所以才价格便宜，除了认赌服输没别的办法
这跟他代理不代理买家没关系
不是什么大问题。
硬着头皮Close好了。老房子这么多年都没垮，在修修补补，在你手上搞个2-30年绝对没问题。
或者修完后，趁市场好的时候，倒手卖掉。
