Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pennsylvania

It depends: Did the bank "say" it in writing? Were there written disclosures of the condition of the house? warranties? how long ago did the bank make any representations? how long ago did you inspect the property? when did you close on the property? All of these factor into your rights.

Consult with a local real estate lawyer to determine your options. Take along all of the written materials that relate to your purchase.

THIS RESPONSE IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE, SINCE I DO NOT HAVE ALL OF THE INFORMATION THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED, AND I DO NOT HAVE A REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT WITH YOU.

* If the answers to your question confirm that you have a valid issue or worthwhile claim, your next step should almost always be to establish a dialog with a lawyer who can provide specific advice to you. Contact a lawyer in your county or township.

* Another reason for contacting a lawyer is that it is often impossible to give a good answer in the Internet Q&A format without having more information. The unique circumstances of your situation and things that you may not have thought to mention in your question may completely change the answer. If you want to be sure that you have a complete answer to your question and an understanding of what that answer means, establish a connection with a lawyer who practices in the area of your concern.
