It will have to be disclosed ultimately. The ones we looked at had small sinkholes that had been repaired. The likelihood is they are actually more secure from further sinkhole activity than the typical home, but that is not the issue, insurance is the issue. Our VLS agent, Tony Trussler, informed us when there had been a sinkhole problem, but some may hold that information until later. For example, we looked at one on open house and nothing was said about a sinkhole repair, when we went back with Tony, he told us about it.
