Together we came to a satisfactory resolution of our issues with them. We are both now happy with how this situation has worked out.

There are at least two versions of the PSA, one with a specified date of rescission - Jan. 15th - and one without. Fortunately I purchased into Expo 62 early enough to have received the latter contract. BUT, I suspect that Intracorp may have blown this stipulated date as I know I received my rescission agreement on the 18th postmarked - and this is the critical date - the 16th. Language in the contract stipulates that Intracorp must make a "good-faith" effort to complete the sale - clearly they did not. The pricing for my unit was offered below market-value. As such, I feel that by failing to close this sale I am out an appreciable sum. Further, I feel insulted and irritated by Intracorp's miserly offer of compensation- 10K off my next Intracorp purchase - and the, to date, 4 phone calls asking my fiancée to send in the rescission agreement, the 3 latter calls made after she clearly stated we needed time to review the document. As such I feel it is wholly appropriate to pursue legal remedy. The attorney I have spoken with is interested in possibly pursuing a class-action suit against Intracorp. If you are interested in what legal standing your case may have please contact me via email: njcenac@gmail.com and I will pass your information along to my attorney. In the interest of full disclosure, I happen to work at a condo law firm. This is the firm I've gone to for legal advice.
