<prompt> Human: hey guys, my fiance and iboth 22 recently bought a house and we love the place. however when the house was inspected some pretty big things were missed.before going into the issues here are some basic details about the house. the house was built in 1974, and was used as a rental property for a few years before the previous owner sold it. its about 1300 sqft and we got it for roughly 86k.so here are the issues.1. faulty wiring to the laundry room. this started off almost as soon as we moved in, any time we ran the dryer the circuit breaker would flip. we assumed it was a bad breaker so after about 4 times of this happening we replaced the switch. unfortunately this did not solve the problem and the dryer wouldnt turn on at all now. we made due with air drying until we could afford an electrician, lucky for us we were able to find a master electrician through a family member that did it for free. he discovered that wire was bad and needed to be replaced and when he pulled out the old wire we discovered that it was burnt up about half way through. i dont know if this could have caused a fire, but i am assuming that we are fortunate that this did not cause any more problems.2. the next problem is the much bugger ticket item. about a week after we moved in my fiancee was cleaning the dishes and when she was done we discovered that the whole time she was cleaning the water had been backing up into the bathtub. it was disgusting to say the least, about an hours worth of nasty water and garbage disposal waste was backed in and it took several hours to drain. we thought it was just a clog so we tried to snake it out unsuccessfully. we had a plumber come out who revealed that it was a problem with our septic tank. since it is an older house it had an old steel tank. these old tanks are typically not able to be pumped but when we dug it up which i did by hand and was indeed a pain. we found a hole in the top of it that had rusted away and was just large enough to fit the pump hose in. we had it pumped but it had been sitting full and backed up for so long that this didnt solve the problem for more than a day. so we had to replace the tank and lines going out. we didnt have any money so for about 2 months we could only flush the toilet once a day and we had to take showers at the gym or my moms house. we did laundry at the laundromat and did all dishes by hand using buckets to let the dirty water into so it wouldnt go down the drain. we ended up taking out a loan to fix it all said an done it cost us roughly 3200. we already had shoddy credit scores due to the mortgage loan, me buying a car last year, and we had a good amount of credit card debt from the move and our wedding purchases. now all of these things were planed for. but the loan was big hit on our credit and monthly expenses from now until it is paid off.it was suggested to us that we should sue the person that did our inspection. but im not sure if it would even be worth the trouble. i dont know how much lawyers cost,but i would only sue for 3200 for the septic issues since i didnt actually pay for the electrician. would the legal fees end up being as much as what i am suing for? would i even have a case? also how would i find a lawyer? the only ones i know of are divorce lawyers, and as someone who is getting married next month i want to stay the hell away from them. i hope someone on reddit can give me some good advice.thanks!  <response>: You can try rlegaladviceBut I guarantee you your inspector had you sign a contract waiving this type of liability. Things like a single faulty wire are difficult, if not impossible, to detect during an inspection.
