LIke I said in another post I have water in my crawl space. One of my neighbors down the street also have water problems and he had the same builder. The neighbor sued the builder and forced him to fix the problem. But that's in Indiana. I think the neighbor said that he did this within ten years from the date of purchase. I'm not sure if the neighbor was the first owner or not. He's handicapped an in a wheel chair for the rest of his life. They got an attorney that didn't live and work in our county. As the builder is connected politically to a lot of people in our county. Smart move on my neighbor's part. His wife works for a city in our county and knows a lot of people too.

I know nobody likes to sue anyone but with this purchase just happening and finding water I would consult an attorney about going after the sellers, inspection company, and even the listing agent. If you are willing to spend 7k on B Dry perhaps having an attorney draft a letter to all three parties and doing some saber rattling might get you some resolution. I wish you the best on this outcome.
