  • Do I have legal recourse against the party that sold me a home 4 yrs ago without disclosing faulty plumbing?

    The seller was a real estate broker, and I had no agent representing me - so I believe his fiduciary responsibility was higher than it would be otherwise. After discovering a slab leak a couple of weeks ago, I found out that the seller had been included in a class action lawsuit against the manufacturer of the faulty polybutylene plumbing pipes. Because of the case settlement, he could have replaced the pipes at the manufacturer's cost, but he did not. Years later, I was sold the property and the pipe situation was not disclosed to me.

    My understanding is that real estate transactions in California require full disclosure, and that a lack of disclosure could result in the seller's liability to the buyer. Do I have a case to sue the seller for the $6000 cost of replacing the pipes?
