Legal Question in Business Law in Texas

my daughter purchased nightbluc for a total of $90000, she put $50000 cash down and the owner is holding a $40000 note, does that give the previous owner the right to have a key to the establisment? This is in Houston, Texas.

Based on what you have written, the terms of the purchase agreement may govern the rights or each party. You daughter should seek advise from a local law firm to ensure that her rights and interests are being fully protected. Have you daughter contact our office to further discuss the facts of her legal issue.

The other attorney is on point here. Unless the contract of sale gives this right (which is very unlikely) a seller normally has no right of entry on the premises. Consult with an attorney in your area for specifics, including changing the locks..
