just found out my heating/duct work in my home we purchased under 3 years ago was improperly installed and needs major renovations to correct as it is melting down our furnance. we had a home inspection done. what can we do?
Answer
Sue the inspector if the defect was apparent upon inspection. If the seller provided disclosure instead of giving you $500 credit at closing, and had knowledge of the defect, go after him also.
Answer
You need to establish whether this "melt-down" might be covered by your homeowners' insurance. Note that the statute of limitations to sue the seller/installer is six years, and you should be looking at that as a fallback in case your insurance does not come through. And you're going to need to engage an attorney.
