It has to be inspected but I don't think that's on the list and even then inspection is not always required for private sale. I could be wrong. If I am I would love to learn that section of the law if you know what it is. And non disclosure is not a default for fraud. There is fraudulent non disclosure but it has to be a requirement of the object being sold.
