Agents or not TV has a responsibility to the consumer. You don't need to be a sales agent to be held liable if Florida has a disclosure law. Even a John Doe sell by owner can be held responsible for not telling the buyer about house issues, such as leaks, electrical, plumbing, association fees, rules and regulations, etc. If it was disclosed and you signed agreeing to the fact the train existed then tough luck and move on.

It must have in my thinking ever since so many seniors were defrauded in the past few years on people selling swamp land. Florida came in and put it to a stop and put many in prisons.

My suggestion is to immediately find a Real Estate attorney who is familiar with the Florida disclosure laws and go at it.

Good Luck.
