Owner Not Liable for Fraud and Concealment

Facts: A resident sued an owner for fraud and concealment based on alleged misrepresentations made when the resident was a prospective tenant looking to rent a unit at the site. In November 2008, at the time the resident was looking at an apartment, he “made several inquiries about the quietness and crime in the neighborhood,” and an employee informed him that there was very little criminal activity and only mentioned “occasional noise from a restaurant across the street.”
