The Stambovskys found a nice Victorian home in the Village of Nyack, New York in 1991 and they made an offer. The purchase price was $650,000. The Buyers made a down payment of $32,500.
A couple of months after the contract was signed, Mr. Stambovsky was horrified when he learned that the home was known in the community to be HAUNTED!
Apparently, the phantasmal reputation of the house was commonly known in the Village of Nyack.
Surprisingly, the Sellers had publicized the ‘hauntings" to the local media and Reader's Digest. In 1989, the house was included in a five-home walking tour of Nyack and described in a November 27th newspaper article as "a riverfront Victorian (with ghost)." The Stambovskys were not from the area and did not know about the poltergeists.
The Stambovskys brought a legal action and alleged that the Seller and the Seller's agent should have disclosed the presence of ghosts. They wanted out of the contract because the presence of ghosts was not disclosed.
The trial court said no way! However, the case went up on Appeal and the Appellate court ruled that the Stambovskys could get out of the contract because, "As a matter of law, the House is Haunted".
The Appellate Court stated:
"While I agree with the Supreme Court that the real estate broker, as agent for the seller, is under no duty to disclose to a potential buyer the phantasmal reputation of the premises and that, in his pursuit of a legal remedy for fraudulent misrepresentations against the seller, plaintiff hasn't a ghost of a chance, I am nevertheless moved by the spirit of equity to allow the buyer to seek rescission of the contract of sale and recovery of his down payment."
The court reasoned that because the Seller had promoted the hauntings to several publications, she could not now deny the existence of ghosts. Therefore, the Appellate court ruled that under the equitable principals of the law, the Stambovskys were entitled to a refund of their down payment.
This was the Amityville house ~ Stambovsky v. Ackley (169 A.D.2d 254, 572 N.Y.S.2d 72). It was decided in 1991 by the New York Appellate Court.
When I first moved to New Hampshire and began my career in real estate, I was showing an older home in Atkinson, New Hampshire. It was a charming home -- All of a sudden, we heard a loud noise --the wind was whistling and a door slammed shut.
We all were trying to act like it wasn't any big deal. Then the lights started to flicker. I didn't know what to think - and up until that time, I hadn't thought about whether I REALLY believed in ghosts. My clients were very nervous.
The clients were not familiar with "haunted houses" and they decided they would buy a new contemporary instead!
There is also a "haunted" restaurant in Nashua, New Hampshire. The Country Tavern was built in 1741. It is a lovely restored farmhouse and is the home of a friendly ghost known as ELIZABETH.
The "haunted restaurant has been featured on "Hard Copy and "unsolved mysteries". I haven't met Elizabeth, but some staff members have met her. They say she is very friendly and likes to play pranks on the staff!
Here is a list of "haunted homes" and attractions in New Hampshire!
A Haunting Question: Got Ghosts? What is the DUTY TO DISCLOSE IN YOUR STATE?
- Does the seller's agent have a duty to disclose the phantasmal reputation of the premises?
- Does the seller have a duty to disclose the presence of ghosts?
- Does the buyer's agent have a duty to disclose the presence of ghosts?
What is the duty to disclose stigmatized property in your state?
HAPPY HALLOWEEN

I specialize in representing buyers in So. New Hampshire. Our ONLY interest is YOUR best interest. Licensed in NH, Buyer's Option Realty - Call 800-269-6445 x2 or email nhbuyerrep@gmail.com
Real Estate Agents are NOT created Equal
Hire a Buyer's Agent to Work for YOU!
I am a Buyer's Agent experienced in representing Buyers ONLY throughout most of Southern New Hampshire. I act as a consultant to the Buyer and look out for the Buyer's best interests. Whether you are a first time Buyer, a repeat Buyer or a Buyer who is relocating, you will benefit from using an exclusive buyer's agent.
Buyer's Option Realty Services does not represent Sellers, therefore Buyers can avoid THE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST inherent when a firm or agent represents both buyers and seller in the same transaction.
Please email me at nhbuyerrep@gmail.com and I will explain how working with an exclusive buyer's agent will protect YOUR interests and put you ahead of the competition.
I hold several real estate certifications - ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative) CEBA (Certified Exclusive Buyer Agent), e-Pro (internet savvy Realtor) and C-CREC (Consumer oriented real estate agent). I also have have expertise in advanced negotiation and mediation. Before becoming a specialist in representing buyers, I practiced real estate law in California. (although I don't practice law in NH). When moving to NH 11 years ago, I wanted to represent Buyers without the conflicts of interest inherent in representing both buyers and sellers in the same transaction.
From 2004-2008 I served as a director with the Greater Manchester Nashua Board of Realtors; I serve on the Professional Standards Committee, served as sub-chair of GMNBR legal committee 2007-2008 and am a past director of the NH Association of Exclusive Buyer Agents. I am an educator and often participate in seminars to educate consumers about the home buying process.
Hire a buyer agent who specializes in the representation of Buyers Only. Having a buyer's agent on your side will give you a competitive edge.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN TO SEARCH FOR A HOME , HIRE A BUYER'S AGENT TO WORK IN YOUR BEST INTERESTS. IF YOU DON'T, THE AGENT YOU FIRST CONTACT (E.G., AN OPEN HOUSE OR CALLING A REAL ESTATE AGENT DIRECTLY) MAY CLAIM THAT THE AGENT HAS PROCURED YOU AS THE BUYER AND YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO WORK WITH THE BUYER AGENT OF YOUR CHOICE.
Buyer agents have access to the entire Multiple Listing Service. Buyer agents can also represent you in the purcahse of for sale by owner homes. Buyers can save time and minimize risk because excusive buyer agents do NOT represent both buyers and sellers in the same transaction. Buyer agents help you assemble a team of UNBIASED experts to provide the Buyer with the information needed to make an informed decision.

SEE WHAT OTHER'S HAVE TO SAY:
"Even though the Internet gives buyers unprecedented access to home listings, most new buyers (and many more experienced ones) are better off using a professional agent. Look for an exclusive buyer agent, if possible, who will have your interests at heart and can help you with strategies during the bidding process." CNN money.com Lesson 8
