I would contact your solicitor, assuming that you had the property surveyed before agreeing the purchase.
I bought a house many years ago and when we viewed it the bathroom had gold plated taps. The seller told us that he would be taking them with him,I assumed he would replace them. The day we moved in one of the kids went to the loo and came down to say she couldn`t wash her hands. I went upstairs and found he had just turned off the water and removed the taps.As he had told me he was doing this , I had no recompnense against him,and had to get to the plumbers merchant and buy new taps. |

did you have a home inspection and get a home buyers warranty if no, then no
did you do a walk thru before going to closing ?
sorry but welcome to the world of home ownership, fix and repair daily |

If you viewed the property then you didn't view it very well.
That is why you pay someone to come in and inspect the property to make sure that the property you are buying is in working order and that there are no major problems...
Or did you buy the property as is with no inspection?
You may not have a leg to stand on.... |

Why did you not get an independent inspection of the property before you bought it? If you didn't do your due dilligence, you now own it warts and all.
Some of those things would be obvious even to a blind man. How could you miss a hole in the bath or a shower that doesn't get hot? How hard is it to turn on the water or run the dishwasher to see if it works?
You might have a case if the seller concealed a known latent defect IF you can prove that fact. But if you missed glaringly obvious faults yourself and failed to get an independent inspection before closing then you have only yourself to blame. |

have you heard buyer beware? |

This depends on whether you where told these where working.
Although vendors are not legally obliged to point out damage to property. But if you ask a direct question then they have to answer truthfully.
Its your duty to check the condition of the property |

Vendors as in previous owners? or contractors?? First of all when you viewed the house prior to buying did you flush the toilets, check the water pressure and look in the bathrooms, did you not notice the hole in the bathtub? Was the house sold "as is"? if it was then you accepted it in the condition it is.
Did you do a final walk thru prior to closing on the house to make sure that the previous owners didn't damage the house? If you didn't then you only have yourself to blame and now that you've closed on the house then you are responsible for all the repairs. |

In some states the seller and the real estate agent(if aware) have to disclose defects. Depending on the laws were you are you might have a case, but it may be easier and less $$$ to handle it yourself and no better next time. |

talk to your solicitor you paid him |

It depends....did you use a real estate agent? Was there a disclosure statement saying this stuff all worked? I'm sure the laws also vary from state to state.
Did you have an inspection? Some of this should have been checked.....general plumbing/shower working is easy to check. Not so easy with dishwasher.
You can talk to your agent first. |

Check your legal paperwork [7 to 14 days] from date of entry everything in working order within stated days . outwith this then no comeback on vendor. you should really check with your solicitor who dealt with this sale |

Did you take a surveyor and a lawyer with you when you went to buy the house? I would suggest you do this or give back the house and go into every room before buying anything remember it is your investment for life. |
