Re: Contract
we would need to see the Transfer Disclosure Statement, as well as the documents which passed through escrow. the seller, their broker, and/or your broker may well have some liability exposure. but again, need to see the documents.
gather and copy the same for review by counsel.
if you like, you may call and we shall review the same and give you an opinion as to your rights and ultimate chances at a successful outcome.

Re: Contract
You should try to resolve it outside of court. However, if that isn't successful, you need to sue. Your contract likely provides that the prevailing party in a lawsuit can recover its attorney's fees. Let us know if you need help. We may be able to work something out regarding our fees if your contract has an attorney's fees provision.
