Thoughts on this? Did this realtor violate anything?

[Justin W.]

Long story short, I am from a small town in a rural area. Small town big shots sometimes make their own rules and that's the type involved here. They worked as a team in this entire thing.

So here we go...A person sold a piece of land 3 years ago, reiterated in the deed "this conveyance is made subject to the restriction that no mobile or manufactured homes shall be placed upon the subject property." as the restriction had been in a previous, distant deed. It was very very important to the seller as its next to their home.

The property was then chopped, sold 1 time  but all deeds still carried the restriction, but by referring back to previous restrictions. 

All lots stayed legal but one got a manufactured home shoved on it and sold immediately, before even in place.  

All sales of the property involved the same realtor, the same lawyer, all within 3 years.

The realtor pretends to not have known about the restriction, the lawyer is sort of playing dumb but talking about mediating as I point out they missed the restriction that they themselves originally put in. I have not yet notified the buyer who clearly has no idea of the restriction. I'd love to but I don't want to get myself into trouble. 

Is the realtor liable for anything here? Are they responsible for knowing the deed? They are absolutely involved more than just being the realtor but some of that seems back door. They even financed some of the deal....according to public docs.

I hate the idea of getting a lawyer involved. Any other course of action? And did this realtor violate any codes?

Who enforces these restrictions anyway? The county said they don't.

Realtors/Agents don't have anything to do with, or interact with the deeds. That's under the preview of the attorneys.
