Brief synopsis: we were going to buy land to build on but it had an old gun range on it. Seller in the contract agreed to clean but then backed out of the agreement terms so we walked away. The land tested extremely high for lead (above epa recommended levels for a play area & yard, we have young children).
The seller stated that they just didn't want to sell it anymore & pulled it from the market. They recently listed the property again. We have no interest in purchasing it but feel that it is not right that they sell it without disclosing to potential buyers. Is this something they should have to disclose? We are in Texas FYI.
