Home inspectors really work for the realty agent and not for you the buyer.

Bull****.

They work for whoever hired them. If you let the agent hire
the inspector, you're a fool.

You can always call the Real Estate commission for advice. I am going to
assume that there were no structural problems indicated on the
Residential Property Disclosure form when you bought the house and that
there were no problems found when you had the house inspected before
purchase. If you or your home inspector didn't catch it the first time
chances are that the problem was hidden and that the seller didn't know
about it. Agents and the seller are obligated to inform purchasers of
all material facts related to the purchase of property.

Can you find a previous engineer or inspector who gave him a report
indicating there was a problem? (And who will TELL YOU or ADMIT TO YOU
that they did?)

Actually, do you even KNOW there is a problem? Before you start
trying to "figure out" if the previous owner knew there was a problem,
maybe YOU better ACTUALLY FIND OUT if there is one. (It would be
pretty hard for the previous guy to know about something that is all
in YOUR imagination.)
