Homeowners: have you ever had to pursue the seller for nondisclosure?

7. Thank you, all, for your responses

All things considered, we're just going to go ahead and have the roof replaced. We're in a position to be able to do so, and we don't have the will to pursue it in court. Also, we don't really have the time--the leak is serious and ongoing.

We had already obtained several estimates and are going with a guy who's done a lot of work in our neighborhood and who's well known to my neighbors; they've all vouched for him, and he seems honest from all of my interactions with him.

Perhaps we'll pursue the matter after the fact, but for right now we can't afford to wait while the situation worsens.
