Reality is this, if it TRULY took the agent and bank that long to get you the info you can walk from your contract. BUT you must have everything documented, not just "this is what happened". No judge is going to make you buy the home and they can't release your escrow without written consent from you.
Since the house is "as is" you can't force the bank to do the repairs but if your agent has a brain they should be able to negotiate this out for you. The bank does not want you to walk, and now that it has been made aware it has the responsibility to disclose the info.
