I was tricked into buying a home "as is"

[David Galea]

I put an offer on a home without knowing it was " sold as is" until the last minute and my real estate agent pressured me to make a decision without explaining the consequences of no contingencies. Later i found out the home is 500+ square feet smaller than advertised and it was in an "A" flood zone as well. Am I entitled to get my $3,000 earnest money?
