What are your remedies in the event of a hidden defect?
Depending on the specifics of your situation, you could consider recourse against the seller, the real estate broker, the builder or the building inspector. However, each case is unique and the type of action to be taken will depend on the legal grounds as well as the specific situation.
It is important to note that you have recourse if the defect affects the enjoyment of the building or has negative consequences on its use, such as the need for repairs or significant inconvenience.
However, the impact of the defect must be significant enough that you would not have bought the building or paid for it at the same price if you had been aware of the defect.
