[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Contrary to the PPs, there could be a legitimate lawsuit here. It really depends on what you learn and what exactly was disclosed. If you or your spouse is a lawyer, or can otherwise obtain low-cost or contingency representation, it might be worth your time to sue. It's doubtful a case would go all the way to trial because the sellers would probably cut you a check to make you go away.

Too many sellers believe they can be cute or cagey on their disclosures and get away with it, probably including many of the PPs. Maybe the sellers did nothing wrong here, but I wouldn't rule out a lawsuit.[/quote]

They disclosed having a flood in their basement last year. There's no chance of a successful lawsuit.[/quote]

Based on what OP described, they disclosed flooding and fixes in one area but not the area that flooded this time. So there is the possibility of a successful lawsuit.[/quote]

We've been getting a lot more heavy rains.  It's possible it was the first time.  They fixed it, have documentation AND OP had an inspector.[/quote]

This. Even if the seller lied by disclosing one area they can claim the other area is new even though it has flooded in the past.

Disclosure forms are useless.[/quote]
