Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

Re: Flooding into house after closing

It depends on whether the condition that causes the flooding was a latent (i.e. hidden) defect that the seller/agent knew about, but failed to disclose. If so, you can possibly rescind the deal or sue for damages and repair.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
