Upon Rogers and Blythe transferring the rights to Charter Bank promise became unconditional and isn’t negotiable because of the risk with Holly Hill not paying full or at all would fall on Rogers and Blythe who held the contract originally.

The Mahaffey’s signed a promissory note with Mortgage Finance Corporation. After the job was completed, Five Star failed to complete certain parts of the agreement; because of the defects the Mahaffey’s refused to make the payments due on the note. Mortgage finance instituted foreclosure proceedings to collect the money owed.
The Federal Trade Commission rule can possibly protect the Mahaffey’s because the rule prevents separating the consumer’s duty to pay the credit and the seller’s duty to perform. However, the Mahaffey’s have to pay the note regardless and shouldn’t stop paying it. Five Star would be held liable for the repairs and completion of the job. The Mahaffey’s can also raise the defense that there was a breach of contract with Five Star and seek to recover any damages; at this point Mortgage Finance would be able to also seek to recover any financial losses as well as Five Star.
