Termites found after I sold my House.

Hello fellow investors, I am just starting investing and I am on the process of acquiring my first rental property.

But my real issue right now is that I just sold my primary property (a condo) here in Missouri.  when I bought the house 7 years ago, I did a building inspection, a termite inspection and a radon inspection. Termites and radon came clear, and some cosmetic issues that at the time the seller repaired.  Now 7 years later I sold my house, the new buyer only did building and radon inspection.  A month after closing, when the new buyer was working on the house she found termites and termite damages.  She is demanding a refund of $13K for damages and she accusing me of not disclosing the termite problems.

I had no idea that my house had termites problems and I never noticed any damage in any of the wood structures in the house.  what can I do, what do you suggest I do? does she have a case? she is threating me with sending me to court.  can somebody help me? I have been really stressed for this situation because that was never my intensions.

thanks everybody !

Gabriel
