If it were mine, I would make/set a date for the repair and go set up camp in his lot until the repairs are done, then you both are happy. This kinda funny, but life is what it is.

I don't know what he can do in the state you did the transaction in, but where I live, he could repossess it. And where I live, one can go to the county clerks office and get a lien filed against another if they are owed money. So, ya he can probably do it. You need to follow the laws on this stuff and do it properly. If you don't know the law, you better learn it real fast, cause you need to know which side of it you are on.
What are you going to do, give him the broken parts back and you use the ones that work?
If a written agreement didn't specify how or where the repairs were to be made, you got to give him a chance. Looks like you'll have to drive the 40, 60 or 80 miles to his place.
Or, if you don't want to deliver the RV for repairs, send him the rest of his money and fix it yourself.
Sorry, lesson learned. Do not buy something that's broken.

I guess I would talk to my attorney cousin first to make sure I didn't step in something.

I was able to have part of the payment withheld. Seller agrees to fix if I drive it back to him 60 miles and they will repair MH, but first he wants me to release the money. Would I be crazy to go for this deal?? Should it be fixed first and then release the funds
If they didn't do you right the first time, what makes U think they will do fine the SECOND time ??
