"Mr Kim employed a firm of estate agents to sell his bungalow for him. Goh, a member of the firm, presented to Mrs Irene that the property was of considerable value and that any financier could easily provide financial assistance to the purchaser of the bungalow. In actual fact, this was quite untrue because the bungalow had been underpinned several times to prevent it from falling down. Mr Kim knew that the bungalow was in poor condition but did not authorize Goh to make the representation. Goh himself had no knowledge of the underpinning. Mrs Irene bought the bungalow on the faith of the representation and upon discovering the underpinning, sued Mr Kim for damages for fraud. Advise Mrs Irene whether her action would succeed."
