bought home in new york, three years ago, seller claimed property had working septic tank and even listed it in listing. year ago, plumbing problems, not only is there a damaged pipe, but no septic tank at all, just a hole in the ground. is the seller and/or real estate agent responsible for this? isn't there some sort of law about disclosing things like this?
Yes, it appears that you may have a claim against the seller and the realtor for what appears to be fraudulent inducement.
