Court of Appeals of South Carolina.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William H. Ehlies, II, of Greenville, for Appellants.

Samuel W. Outten and Sandi R. Wilson, both of Greenville, for Respondent.


WILLIAMS, J.:

In this action for negligence, Appellants argue the trial court erred in granting summary judgment in favor of Respondent because Respondent's motion for summary judgment was procedurally defective, or, in the alternative, because the trial court erred in holding a realtor does not have a legal duty to investigate latent defects in property or to advise his or her clients on matters outside the scope of his or her expertise. We affirm.
