Is a seller obligated to inform a buyer that there is a swimming pool fiiled in and buried in yard?

Pretty sure they don't. I found one buried in my back yard after I bought it and it wasn't disclosed.

The only things they have to disclose to you are usually covered on the Louisiana Property Disclosure Form.

I'd be upset if I found that out when I went out to plant something there. How much surface area concrete are we talking about?

Why does it matter? Doing a little excavating?

Its not my property. Someone I know is selling her house. She had the pool filled in a couple of years ago and she was wondering if it had to be disclosed.

There is the legal thing to do and the right thing to do. I don't know if legally, she needs to. But she should. She knows it's there, she should disclose it. If it was done properly, she can show receipts, etc.
