It never occured to me that anyone would be so stupid as to buy a house & not understand the well & septic situation. If you had done your job right of previewing what you were buying, you would know what you have.
I very much prefer 'as is where is' deals, as a buyer & a seller. I do not understand this effort by some to be terribly lazy when they buy something, and then want to come back at the previous owner 5, 10 years later.
These same people tend to be bottom feeders, and want to buy as cheap as possible - then hang every problem upon the previous owner & get all house improvements financed by the previous owner.
Not thinking of you Buzz with that papragraph - one of my city slicker friends was all upset his crank windows didn't work 3 years after he bought the house, & wanted to talk to the realitor about getting it fixed through the previous owner. Another city slicker friend demanded his tub be replaced 15 months after buying the house because there was a crack in it in some location that didn't cause a leak, wasn't visable unless you put your head on the floor. Now everyone knows crank windows are krap, and the previous owner of the tub got even by supplying the new tub without instalation instead of meeting costs 1/2 way. I'd a done the same, and that is with a pretty good friend.... I just do not understand such frivilous claims.
I find such ideas silly.
I think buyers need to be responsible for important issues. Obviously the seller should be held responsible for actively hiding something. Now, if they had said the septic & leach field was over here in this nice draining area, and you come to find the situation you have - then go after the liar!
But if you asked, and were told where it is and you can surely inspect it if you have a mind to, then it's all on you. Period.
My opinion.
Less govt micro-management is good. Real regulation of actuial issues is also good. The current direction we are going..... Oh boy.
