Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Hi. My parents bought a property in Yucca Valley, Ca and both the seller and real estate agent did not disclose many existing issues with the property. On top of that, the real estate agent convinced my mom to use the (current) hope inspections as a way to save $, since both my parents are retired and on a limited income. My question is, since my mom didn't hite a home inspector herself, does she have any chance at getting the seller to cover the expenses on the issues with the major property?

It looks like the answer is Yes. The seller and the seller's agent had a clear duty to disclose all obvious defects or problems as well as all known material problems and defects with the property. I'd like to look the case over more carefully, but this appears to be a failure to disclose or purposeful concealment situation that the courts find results in clear liability on the sellers for all reasonable repairs.
