Yes it is. However the seller is not obliged to declare every point that
might affect the decision of a prospective purchaser. The Seller's Property
Information Form explictly refers to disputes and in this case there is no
dispute

In Sykes v Taylor-Rose & another [2004] EWCA Civ 299 the Court of Appeal
held that question 13 on the Sellers Property Information Form "Is there any
other information which you think the buyer might have a right to know?"
referred to rights at law, not merely information which might affect the
decision to purchase, and the vendors were not liable for failing to
disclose a horrific murder that had taken place on the premises.
