My wife and I were buying a home on the disclosure statement the owner did not disclose that he knew about mold. The owner accepted my offer. My home inspector
Inspected the home, I also I had a service ticket for water intrusion in the master bedroom. We pulled the corner of the carpet up and there was mold. He took a sample
To send to the lab, my problem is He signed the paper I have knowing there was mold
Back in 2005 but he didn
The failure of a seller to disclose a defect is not uncommon, and it is very difficult to prove prior knowledge. Since you became aware of the mold during the inspection process, provided for in the contract, and exercised your option to cancel the purchase agreement, you have no damages from the failure to disclose.
Most important, the mold was apparently concealed under carpeting(your description). How can you prove the homeowner was aware of it and failed to disclose it. Is it plausible he was unaware or its presence or unknowledgeable of mold? Dismissed, next case.
