Chau Ngoc Nguyen v. Doak Homes, Inc.

Court of Appeals of Washington

Decided June 4, 2007No. 57713-1-IPublishedCited by 11 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

¶1

2Per curiam

Under certain circumstances, the seller’s failure to disclose concealed defects to the purchaser of residential property constitutes fraudulent concealment. But because appellants Naomi Nguyen and Sam Hong (collectively Hong) did not purchase their home from respondent Darryl Doak and Doak Homes, Inc. (collectively Doak), their claim for fraudulent concealment fails. Nor did Hong establish a material factual issue regarding alleged *729Consumer Protection Act (CPA), chapter 19.86 RCW, violations. Accordingly, we affirm the trial court’s dismissal of Hong’s claims on summary judgment.
