    First it is not a good idea to piggyback your question on another thread. To avoid confusion your question has been moved to its own thread.

    I believe the SOL is 2 years. Which would seem to be within the time frame mentioned. The question is whether they had an inspection done or whether this was a hidden problem.

    Are you in New Brunswick, Canada, New Brunswick, New Jersey, or somewhere else?

    The SOL would depend on where you are.
