Evidence Collection | Case Assisting with Evidence Collection to Rescind a Real Estate Contract Based on False Facts

This is the account of a client who requested assistance with evidence collection.

The client entered into a real estate sale contract introduced by an acquaintance.

The seller, B, explained that the real estate had no defects whatsoever and was a property with complete ownership free of any third-party claims, and the client, who believed this as stated, paid a down payment of 50 million won and entered into the sale contract.

However, the client later learned that the real estate was already in a provisional registration dispute with a third party.

The seller, B, had also entered into the same sale contract with a third party, and as a result, the client was in effect unable to have ownership of the real estate transferred to him.

The seller, B, had concealed this and entered into the contract with the client on the basis of false facts, and when the client sought to rescind the contract, B asserted that this was unfair and refused to return the payment.

The client came to the Daeryun evidence investigation center feeling at a loss.

This was because objective evidence was needed to prove the seller's false statements and the actual dispute status of the real estate.

The client wished to rescind the contract and to recover the down payment in full.

The firm provided assistance with the rescission of the real estate contract through evidence gathering.

As a result of the assistance of the evidence investigation center and an attorney for the collection of evidence, the client was able to obtain a full refund of the 50 million won down payment that had been paid.

As in the above case, where a contract was concluded based on false facts, in order to recover a down payment paid as a result, specific and objective evidence that can prove the other party's false statements is necessary.

Without the collection of evidence, one cannot properly assert one's rights and may be unable to recover the down payment.
