Buyer has signed a contract to purchase a house with the condition that the house pass a home inspection. However, Buyer would like to terminate the contract because the home inspection revealed some serious damages and the Seller did not disclose these problems prior to the signing of the contract.

I have a mobile home I have used for fifteen years for tool storage and working out of as a carpenter. I live in a floodway in Jefferson County, Missouri, on a posted private road that is a mile and half long and is a dead end. Recently it was posted with a public nuisance sign. After inquiring what was required to remove the sign, I was told that I had to physically remove the trailer or demolish it. They had taken photos and refused to tell me what was wrong specifically for two months until I received a certified letter telling me I had fifteen days to respond or they would remove the trailer for me and send me the bill with the stipulation that refusal to pay the bill would start lien measures against my property. What recourse do I have?
