What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maine
I bought a house in 2011. During buyer's inspection, mold was seen on the roof sheathing. I stipulated proper remediation and treatment of the sheathing as a condition of sale, and was assured by the dual-agent realtor that this was completed prior to closing. Foolishly, I neglected to demand a report, and due to physical challenges and a lack of access to the attic, I was unable to physically check to confirm.
This summer, as part of prep to have more insulation added to the crawlspace, I had a hatch installed in the attic and it was found that the sheathing was never treated and the mold is worse, at this point. Do I have any legal recourse to go back against the seller or agent at this late date?
