Thank you Bruce for the advice. I am calling the city to get the permit history. Have you seen others checking the box as yes, in cases when only sqft has been added to the property(no history of foundation issues)? In mi opinion, it is a little misleading if that is a standard practice.

Hi. I am looking to buy a house and found a good one that has been remodeled. The question in the disclosure "are you aware of any previous foundation repairs? was marked as yes. This is a house that has additional square ft added on, so they listed that as the reason for marking the question as positive, as new foundation and support was added for the additional sqft.

My question is: Is it a standard practice to check this box as "yes" in the disclosure when additional square feet has been added on to the property? I am worried that the house might have had foundation issues before it was flipped.
