What do you do against a realtor (s) who didn't disclose lead-base paint contamination in the house you bought from them? They are walking away with their $40,000 commission and could care less. They claim that the put a lot of effort into making it right, tried renting the contaminated property, making all kinds of false and stupid statements to other people but never, ever follow through???
They are trying to save face, that's all they are doing. Letting their lawyers do the dirty work and in the meantime, you are stuck in a "bad" or "sick" house that needs to be fixed or repaired so you can sell it again.
In order to get a "clean bill of health" by the EPA all lead needs to be removed, that's simply the best and most responsible way of doing this and being able to eventually sell this house again without any hazzle or law suit following. They knowingly didn't disclose the lead-base paint because they sold the house 3 years prior. They also knew that if they would introduce any other issues with the house, such as "it can't be rented because the house has lead-base paint in it" we would have not purchased the house and they would have lost a sale and enormous commission. Do they even know of a CODE OF ETHICS?
I am extremely upset, do not trust in people any longer, definitely have no trust in the legal system. The bad ones always win, the good ones look stupid.
