If a buyer were to sue a broker for not inspecting a house and revealing material facts, which case might she cite?

  1. Smith v. Jones

  2. Johnson v. Williams

  3. Easton v. Strassburger

  4. Davis v. Garcia

The correct answer is: Easton v. Strassburger

In Smith v. Jones, the buyer wouldn't be able to sue the broker because the case was about false advertising, not inspection of a house. In Johnson v. Williams, the case was about negligence in a car accident, so it would not apply to a house inspection. In Davis v. Garcia, the case was about landlord and tenant disputes, which also would not apply to a broker not inspecting a house. In Easton v. Strassburger, the buyer could cite this case because it pertains to a broker's duty to disclose material facts about a property to the buyer.
