I live in Tampa, FL. On 11/28/05, I signed a contract with a townhome developer to purchase a pre-construction townhouse. The contract stated that the property should be delivered to buyer in two years from the date of the contract according to ILSA law. On 11/22/2006, the developer prepared an addendum with a clause in it stating that the starting date for the two-year delivery is changed to the date of the addendum without any consideration. I signed the addendum without knowing this clause. I think it is an invalid contract. Now, I get a letter from the developer saying that the townhouse closing date will in in January 2008, which has passed the two year period from the contract date of 11.28/2005. I sent a letter to the developer asking for cancellation of the contract and refund of my deposit. The developer sued me for breaching the contract. Do you think I have a good case to win or not?
