Your post is not clear. Exactly what are you talking about when you mention "unsavory practices?" Unsavory meaning illegal? Elaborate, please.

First of all, we aren't speaking about New York; we're talking about Florida. Stay on topic.

Florida recognizes the right of recision of any type of property? Sorry -- not so! If you have backed out of two purchases of a home within the seven day period you mentioned, I assume the form of ownership was a condominium, the sellers were being very nice or a clause was written into the contract.

I have been in real estate 30 years and I don't know of any Florida law that recognizes any of the laws of New York State. I'd have to see that in writing as opposed to your word of mouth.
