Questão jurídica principal
Whether the sellers fraudulently concealed a defect by overstating the villa's habitable surface under Art. 199 CO.
Decisão extraída
The buyer did not prove intentional concealment; the alleged surface defect was not established.
Fundamentação extraída
The sellers' estimate of about 200 m2 was essentially confirmed by the buyer's own architect (196.7 m2). No factual basis showed deliberate deception or pressure.
