Bought a House With Water Damage. What Can I Do?

It’s spring. Time for water entry into your house. Maybe it was the roof. Likely it was through the siding or the basement. You have it inspected and discover that this has been an issue for a long time. A really long time.

The previous home owner knew about it. They had to have known. But they didn’t tell you. They didn’t tell you while your were buying the house and certainly didn’t tell you in the home disclosure form. What are your options?
