Discussion about 838 Greenwich Street #1A
Buyer sued seller and broker over noise from nightclub next door. Buyer just lost the case. Interesting reading at http://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/webcivil/FCASSearch?param=I (enter 113934/2007 as index.)

How many warnings did the buyer need? Although I feel the most extreme empathy possible for them (I can't go into why), it seems that they had all the warnings in the world from their own expert (who, in my experience, is very prone to writing reports with the conclusion the person paying him wants it to be, so in this case it would be, in my opinion a HUGE RED FLAG if hes telling them it's too noisy).

One of those human-nature things. "It's just a lump and will go away." "I love her; she'll change." "Oh, the noise can't be *that* bad."

This is important reading for all of you who think it is the seller's or the developer's or the broker's obligation to alert you to all "problems"
