If you knowingly hide some thing that will adversely effect the value of a house then you CAN be libel. It is just like knowing your well goes dry in the middle of the summer.
As for what they do to the home values. My BIL has a home that they put wind mills up around him. It has made his life a living hell. First any wild life that was around his home is gone. The wind mills are not silent like they advertise. He even has very few birds at his bird feeders anymore. Plus you can't set on the back porch if there is any wind at all. The wind mills make kind of a whoop, whoop noise. So you take ten of them with in a half mile and it is annoying.
Then the best part. His home was a major part of his financial retirement plans. He has a very nice large house that they had a need for when their kids where home. It sets on a ten acre tract of land. Very pretty valley. He actually bought it off of a farmer so that the farmer had all of the tillable land and he had the rough land. Which was great for a house and yard. Ten years ago it was valued at over $500K. Even with the down turn it should be worth 350-400. They put the wind mills in 6 years ago. He is down to trying to get $250K out of it and has had ZERO offers after they come out and see/hear the wind mills. He gets people calling all hot to trot about it. He now just tells them right then that there are wind mills around his home. Very few even come out to look after that.
So I would tell them but hope to have it sold before the wind mills are up. Even if you have to auction it off I would have it gone before the wind mills are put up.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
