Pre-Closing Inspection Disallowed Because There Was No Mention of a Pre-Closing Inspection in the Purchase Contract

The Fourth Department determined a purchase contract which contained a merger clause prohibiting oral modifications and which did not have a provision allowing a pre-closing inspection did not provide the buyer with the right to inspect the property.  Under the rules for the interpretation of an unambiguous contract, “ ‘courts should be extremely reluctant to interpret an agreement as impliedly stating something which the parties have neglected to specifically include’ . ..”.  Thirty One Development, LLC v Jeffery Cohen, et al, 161 CA 11-02577, 4th Dept. 3-15-13
