Consumer Protection and Fraud Warnings for Home Purchases
The Attorney General warns that contracts bind buyers to written terms, not oral promises, advising thorough reading, questions for unclear parts, and attorney review for large purchases. Do not sign blank spaces, ensure itemization of costs, and obtain a copy of the signed contract. Also warns against deceptive work at home schemes and how to seek help from consumer protection offices and the BBB.
