Summary
A beauty salon sued its property agent and ERA Realty for negligent misrepresentation after discovering that a condominium unit's actual floor area was significantly less than represented, due to the unit's unique double-volume ceiling design. The court dismissed the claim, finding that while the agent had a duty to verify unusual property characteristics, the salon had failed to prove that the agent's representations were false given the ambiguity in how floor area should be measured for such properties.
