No offence but I am curious where you got this impression...

No offence but I am curious where you got this impression (I assume you made a typo that you actually meant "seller has to disclose..."). Residential real estate transaction in Canada is based on the concept of "caveat emptor" which means "let the buyer beware." Only when the seller actively concealed latent defects or made material misrepresentation can the buyer recover certain damages after closing. I would appreciate if you could give me a source of your point; otherwise don't mislead people.

  • 枫下茶话 / 法律 / 请问这种问题如何处理?
    最近买的房子在closing 之后发现问题(新的验房时没有),但是前房东拒不承认。我有验房师和Agent作证。
    请问如何上小额法庭告他要求赔偿? 谢谢。
    • better through your attorney first
      • 他们说不管,自己上小额法庭去告
        • 的确和买房律师没太大关系
          一般来说,验房责任是在买家身上,卖家没有义务描述房屋的缺陷。交易完成后买家承担风险,除非是验房发现不了的隐藏问题或者title缺陷。所以一般大家在交房前一天会再去看一次,有问题的话就不close,这时需要用到你的律师。
          • Buyer has to disclose significant shortcomings of the house. You need to learn the laws in Canada.

          • what if seller damaged the house when moving out? buyer have to eat it? i guess lawyer is paid to deal with it.
            • You are right but that's a different story (wish LZ had given more details here). I still doubt a real estate lawyer, whose main obligation is to help you with the title of the house, is paid to fight for that.
