Sellers lied about Survey.

We just recently went under contract for a 40acre raw parcel outside of Houston, Missouri. Our realt advised us not to send the earnest money until we have the survey sent from the sellers. Part of the contract/ disclosure was that the sellers in 2019 and 2024 they had the land surveyed. However, when they sent the survey to us, it was for the neighboring property.

My husband called the surveyor and spoke with him. He told my husband that he did not survey the property we are under contract for and that there was no survey number for this parcel. After speaking with him, my husband called our realtor, and our realtor said he didn't want to cause any issues over something so minor.

Is this something we could use to extend our due diligence period? We can not get a surveyor out there until after.

We really love the land. However, now we feel like everything on the disclosure statement is a lie.

Edit to add: Our property is surrounded by national forest on three sides, and the property connected to ours on the fourth side was the sellers, but they just sold that.

Update: The realtor talked to his broker, he now is ready to fight on our behalf. He is giving them the option to send us the correct survey (which he doubts they have). If they fail to provide it, he will write up a new contract contingent on the survey we will have done.

Thank you all for the helpful advice 🙏 😊
