Hey troutman, do you really advise Realtors that they must disclose those? My view is that it only needs to be dicsosed if it creates some sort of health risk or is otherwise classifiable as a latent defect. I generally tell Realtors that they shouldn't lie if asked about it, but they are not under an obligation to disclose it otherwise....

Anybody interested in hearing a story along these lines, with the names changed to protect the innocent? (Actually I don't even remember the names, and it turns out everyone was innocent although it didn't look like it at first.)
