Hi,

I am preparing to sell a house. Is it right that I have to tell all the problems in the house, otherwise I will response for all problems found out by the buyer after?

For example, my basement has two small cracks and sometimes they leak during heavy rain. The basement is not finished so the cracks are exposed and can be seen if one looks carfully. The previous ower did not tell me the leakage problem, but he had patched them, as I don't want to finish the basement so I have no problem to live with the cracks and leakage.

So, I think I do'nt need to tell buyer because the defect is not hiden and the leakage is only in special situation. If I tell buyer that the basement is leaking, I have big trouble to sell it. My question is that if the buyer find the problem later, do I still response for it?

Please tell me soon. I will decide to fix it or leave it as it is. You can reply to peterjiang100@yahoo.ca

Thank you.

Dear Amornrut Pan,

The point is not honest, but is a law problem. What will the law allow on this problem? Could you please tell me which one you are sure:
1. the law will be against my case.
2. the case is a gray zone of the law.

Thank you in advance for you reply.
