Dear weary,

I do not understand. Perhaps my wording of the answer made it not clear.

You asked: is the statute of limitations 4 years or 5 for filing a action for specific performance of a contract for the sale of real estate?

My response was: According to the Pennsylvania commercial code (UCC), the statute of limitations to bring action on a contract of sale is 4 years.

My answer says it is 4 years to bring action....ANY action. Action for non-performance and specific performance, etc.

You have four years by pennsylvani commerical code to bring any action or to enforce the contract, etc.

Perhaps you question is not clear....What answer are you looking for.

Lets me fair here. I have a high credential and am quoting law....perhaps it is not the right question.

What are you looking to do...

Dear Weary,

Thank you for the clarification.

My original answer stands, that under commercial code, this type of lawsuit has a statute of limitations of 4 years.

HOWEVER, you do not have to bring suit for non-peformance, you can bring suit for breach of contract.

The statute of limitations for breach of written or sealed contracts is 20 years. (oral contacts, like non-performance is 4 years).
