It's generally fairly hard to convince someone to lend you a private loan if you have no experience investing. The only exception are parents, relatives and close friends (i.e. angel investors).

Best bet is to build some experience by house hacking (FHA loans allow for buying up to a fourplex, as long as you live there, with only 3.5% down). Then when you can show some success and a portfolio of experience, it's much easier to convince people to loan to you.

Often the listing agreement will say something like "buyer to verify." But the disclosures usually have something about "are there any rooms with no ventilation." If they marked "no," that would definitely appear to be a misrepresentation. Of course, I'm no attorney so you should consult with one.

But before gping nuclear on them, I would just address to them and assume it was a mistake. "Hey, I know that we waived our contingencies but it has just come to our attention that 300 sq. ft. of space is actually unfinished basement and is unventilated despite the disclosures saying there is no unventilated space. I know these kinds of mistakes happen, but can we just make this right and adjust the price according?" or something like that.

Really? That's surprising, I would assume Texas would be on the lighter side of regulations and license requirements.
