Here’s an interesting article on a lawsuit. It looks like the buyer is a housewife/retired so she has plenty of time to pursue her case. Good for her!
That’s the reason buyers you should check listings and price histories on the Net and not just rely on agents to show them houses. Unfortunately, old people like it the old fashioned way. I can’t believe these people bought in 2 weekends.
I can see my dad getting suckered like this. Caveat emptor.
