    I would think it could be hard to convince someone that the property had a bad reputation while at the same time claiming that you didn’t know about it. A “reputation” implies that it’s common knowledge, or at the very least, that it’s easy to find out about. Which means that if you didn’t know about it, you didn’t do your due diligence.

      My suspicion is that they didn’t talk to the neighbours until after they bought the house. So, yeah, lack of due diligence.
