I bought a business in October 2017.  I am paying off the business on montly installments for 60 months.  The owners of the business has up to date had a quary about the contract and keeps on changing we in 2020 and I have still not got a signed contract out of them.  Now there are many things that happend that was stipulated in the contract that is not in acordance with the contract.  Wll I have any grounds on this.  EG. contracts stipulates that the same business is not allowed to open next to me, but now the exact same business opened up next to me.

Hi there,

I see that you haven't made a payment for the question, but I'm going to assist you a little. If you want to ask a follow-up question, please make the required payment.

Is the business which opened next to you owned by the seller of your business?

Att. Patrick
