Thank you for your input. I have a friend who works for a Property
Lawyer and they gave the number of a very reputable company to call.
They are coming to look at the property on Monday so I will see what he
has to say. I did find a file in city hall on my property. Come to find
out that the owners of this house back in 1974 signed a letter
releasing the city from any and all water damages that occur to the
house. It is in the deed. I cannot find it in any any of my paperwork
however. Leaving all problems to the property owner. I found out that
there is a brook under my house. It was built in 1960. The seller wrote
numerous letters to the city trying to get them to help with the water
problems. There are also sink holes that he has had to fill several
times. So far I have not seen any.


What you say should have been fully disclosed when the properety was
listed.

Sounds like you have a seller that needs a lesson in 'full
disclosure'.
