Wood v. Simonson , 108 Idaho 699 ( 1985 )


Menu:
  • BURNETT, Judge,

    concurring specially.

    I join in the Court’s opinion with the understanding that it imposes no broad duty upon a purchaser to obtain independent corroboration of a seller’s right to convey property. The purchaser ordinarily is entitled to rely upon the seller’s representation. The duty to conduct an independent investigation arises only if the purchaser is apprised of facts that would put a reasonably prudent person on inquiry.
