UJI 13-1313. Leased premises; latent defect.
If a landlord knows about an existing defect on the premises which is not readily
apparent or knows facts and circumstances which would indicate that there is such a
defect, then the landlord must tell the tenant about the defect at the time of renting the
premises or before the tenant moves in. However, a landlord need not warn the tenant
against a defect which is obvious.
