I'd sooner get a home inspection than a realtor and ALWAYS a lawyer.
Maybe she did everything right and everyone did their jobs, but I'd really be looking at the previous owner.
When I make an offer on a house the offer has two clauses:
The house will have a "satisfactory home inspection" (if you just say an inspection you are still on the hook to buy it).
And approval of my lawyer, she should ask for the property disclose statement, if there's funky wording she catches it.
My guess it the vender has hidden the damage and did it well.
