ISSUE:
Whether the Appellant is liable for the misrepresentation made by him during the agreement?
Whether the Appellant can recover a sum of money payable to him by the Respondents?
RULE:
The Appellant honestly and in fact held the opinion which he stated remained to be considered. This involved examination of the history and condition of the property. If a reasonable man with the Appellant’s knowledge could not have come to the conclusion he stated, the description of that conclusion as an opinion would not necessarily protect him against rescission for misrepresentation.
