Purchasing a home is the largest investment most people ever make. Ensuring that such a transaction is handled appropriately is very important. This is true, not only because of the financial investment that goes into the purchase of a home, but also because of the emotional investment that is part of any home purchase.
Failure to Disclose Real Estate Lawyers in San Diego & Orange County
With the real estate market being in the distressed condition it has been in for years, many homeowners are experiencing difficulty in selling their home. When sales do occur, the purchase prices are often below the amount owed by the seller.
This and other factors are leading unscrupulous home sellers to fail to disclose unfavorable factors regarding the homes they are selling. These issues can range from the benign to those that have a serious impact on your health and the health of your family, including:
- Toxic mold
- Pollution and other hazards
- Repairs or additions done without the proper permits
- Use of lead-based paint
- Roof and window leaks
- Slab, foundation, drainage and grading issues
- Termite or insect infestation
- Plumbing leaks
- Prior repairs
- Prior insurance claims
