| Too right, citylivin. Realtors are by law required to disclose that a property is under a flight path, or within so many feet of a former factory that might be a pollution site, or within X distance of a major highway, or within thus and so distance of a gun range or gun club. If the homeowner chooses to buy, they can't complain they didn't know the range was there after the fact and try to go to law to shut it down. It's an inherent hazard of the property, like casual water on a golf course.
Of course, the Me Generation and the Gen Xers now buying homes don't think rules apply to them and they can just have everything their way. So, with the 'I didn't know it was there' approach blocked, they have to try more creative things. Fortunately, in this case the judge didn't buy their happy horsecrap.
I wonder what the next legal wrinkle the antigunners will invent might turn out to be? |
