Snakes in the grass from a real estate agent

This is another reason buying a home is bullshit in many ways. A real estate agent tells a bald-face lie, denying to a buyer that reports of a house being snake-infested were true, when, in fact, they were true in spades.

Then, the couple finds it has no recourse, and eventually leaves the home while filing bankruptcy.

I think fraud denotations on housing contracts ought to be tightened, and to be made criminal fraud, not civil.
