Defendants
C.DMP.LAlNI
1. Plaintiffs are Clifton H. Henderson and Susan G. Henderson, property owners, who reside at
16 Hazlewood Court, Mechanlcsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17055.
2. Defendant Trindle Spring Development Company is a general Pennsylvania partnership
consisting of Detweiler Enterprises, Inc. and Edward W. Selk, Sr. (hereinafter collectively referred to as
"Defendant Trlndle Spring").
3. Defendant Trlndle Spring is a real estate development company with Its principal place of
business at 3310 Market Street, Camp Hili, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011.
4. Defendant C.M. Detweiler Realty, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Defendant Detweiler
Realty") currently Vd/b/a Howard Hanna Detweiler Realty, Is a real estate brokerage firm having Its office
and place of business at 3310 Market Street, Camp HIli, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011.
5. Defendant Carlla Lenker (hereinafter referred to as "Defendant L.enker") Is a Pennsylvania
licensed realtor, who at all times relevant hereto was an agent of Defendant Detweiler Realty with a placE! of
business located at 3310 Market Street, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011.
6. Defendant First American Flood Data Services, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Defendant
Flood Data Services") Is a flood certification agency formerly known as Flood Cert, having Its office and
place of business at 11902 Burnett Road, Suite 400, Austin, Texas 78750-2902.
7. Defendant Trindlo Spring Is the owner and developer of the Trlndle Spring Development In
Sliver Spring Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
6. At all times relevant hereto, Defendant Detweiler Realty as a real estate brokerage firm listed
for sale and marketed the Trlndle Spring Development with Defendant Lenker as the listing agent.
9, In approximately June or 1994, Plaintiffs began searching ror a suitable lot upon which to
construct their retirement home.
10. Plaintiffs aver that they had four criteria to meet prior to purchasing a lot, which criteria were
known to Defendant Trlndle Spring, Defendant Detweiler Really, and Defendant Carlla L.enker: (1) the lot
had to be In the Cumberland Valley School District; (2) the lot had to have city sewer and water; (3) the lot
had to accommodate a daylight basement; and (4) the lot had to accommodate an Inground pool.
11. After an eight-month search, Plaintiffs located two potential lots on which to build their
retirement home, one In Konhaus Estates Development and Lot #109 In the Trlndle Spring Development.
12. Because the original asking price for the Trlndle Spring lot exceeded their budget, Plaintiffs
placed a deposit to secure their rights to the lot In Konhaus Estates Development.
13. Upon learning of Plaintiffs' decision to purchase In Konhaus Estates Development, Defendant
Trlndle Spring lowered Its asking price at least three times for Lot #109 In the Trlndle Spring Development
until It was within Plaintiffs' budget.
.
14. Defendant Trlndle Spring's third offer fell within Plaintiffs' budget, and Plaintiffs decided they
could afford and would purchase the Trlndle Spring Development Lot #109 offered by Defendant Trlndle
Spring, and marketed by Defendant Detweiler and Defendant Lenker, thus forfeiting their deposit for the lot
In Konhaus Estates Development.
15. On behalf of Defendant Detweiler Realty and Defendant Trlndle Spring, Defendant Lenker as
an agent of Defendant Detweiler Really advised Plaintiffs that the applicable Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) flood plain map showed that Lot #109 In the Trlndle Spring Development was
outside a flood zone.
16. Defendant Lenker on her behalf and that of her principals, Defendant Trlndle Spring and
Defendant Detweiler Realty advised Plaintiffs and other neighboring proflerty owners In the Trlndle Spring
Development that a proposed flood plain amendment had been approved by the government for the Trlndle
Spring Development, effectively removing Lots 109, 111 and 113 from the flood zone.
17. Relying on these representations, on or about October 13, 1994. Plaintiffs entered an
Agreement of Sale to Purchase Lot #109 In Trlndle Spring Development, a/k/a 16 Hazelwood Court,
Mechanlcsburg, Sliver Spring Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Attached as Exhibit "A" Is a
copy of the Agreement of Sale.
16. As a condition precedent to settlement, Plaintiffs' lender required that a fiood certification be
completed to ascertain whether Lot #109 was located In a flood zone and whether flood Insurance would be
required.
'19. Thereafter Defendant Lenker again represented to Plaintiffs that they would not need fiood
Insurance for Lot #109, due to FEMA's acceptance of the proposed flood plain amendment which removed
Plaintiffs' property from the flood zone.
20, Pursuant to the lender's direction, the services of Defendant Flood Data Services (formerly
Flood Cert) were enlisted In order to determine whether the property was located In a special flood hazard
area, and whether flood Insurance would be required.

22. On or about February 20, 1995, Plaintiffs purchased Lot #109 In Trlndle Spring Development

between Plaintiffs and Defendant Tl'lndle Spring.
23, Subsequent to Plaintiffs' purchase of the above-referenced property, Plaintiffs discovered the
following: (a) despite representations by the Defendants to the contrary, their property was indeed In a flood
zone; (b) deAplte representations by the Defendants to the contrary, they would need to purchase flood
Insurance; (c) despite representations to the contrary by the Defendants the proposed amendments to the
Development's flood maps were never approved by FEMA; (el) because Plaintiffs' property Is located within

5, Defendant Carlla Lenker (hereinafter referred to as "Defendant Lenke!"') Is a Pennsylvania
licensed realtor, who at all times relevant hereto was an agent of Defendant Detweiler Realty with a place of
business located at 3310 Market Street, Camp HIli, Cumborland County, Pennsylvania 17011.
6. Defendant First American Flood Data Services, Inc, (hereinafter referred to as "Defendant
Flood Data Services") Is a flood certification agency formerly known as Flood Cert. having Its office and
place of business at 11902 Burnett Road, Suite 400, Austin, Texas 78750-2902.
7. Defendant Trindle Spring Is the owner and developer of the Trlndle Spring Development In
Silver Spring Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania,
8, At ati times relevant hereto, Defendant Detweiler Realty as a real estate brokerage firm listed
for sale and marketed the Trlndle Spring Development with Defendant Lenker as the listing agent.
9. In approximately June of 1994, Plaintiffs began searching for a suitable lot upon which to
construct their retirement home,
10. Plaintiffs aver that they had four criteria to meet prior to purchasing a lot, which criteria were
known to Defendant Trlndle Spring, Defendant Detweiler Realty, and Defendant .Carlla Lenker: (1) the lot
had to be In the Cumberland Vatiey School District; (2) the tot had to have city sewer and water; (3) the lot
,\
had to accommodate a daylight basement; and (4) the 101 had to accommodate an Inground pool,
.,
.
,11. After an eight.month search, Plaintiffs located two potential lots on which to build their
. retirement home, one in Konhaus Estates Development and Lot #1091n the Trindle Spring Development.
. ,
. .
. 12. Because the original asking price for the Trlndle Spring lot exceeded their budget, Plaintiffs
placed a deposilto secure their rights to the lot In Konhaus Estates Development.
13. Upon learning of Plaintiffs' decision to purchase In Konhaus Estates Development, Defendant
Trlndle Spring lowered Its asking price at least three times for Lot #109 in the Trindle Spring Development
until It was within Plaintiffs' budget.
14, Defendant Trlndle Spring's third offer fell within Plalnllffs' budget, and Plaintiffs decided they
could afford and would purchase the Trindle Spring Development Lot #109 offered by Defendant Trlndle
Spring, and marketed by Defendant Detweiler and Defendant Lenker, thus forfeiting their deposit for the lot
In Konhaus Estates Development.
15, On behalf of Defendant Detweiler Realty and Defendant Trlndle Spring, Defendant Lenker as
an agent of Defendant Detweiler Really advised Plaintiffs that the applicable Federat Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) flood plain map showed that L.ot #109 In the Trlndle Spring Development was
outside a flood zone.
16, Defendant Lenker on her behalf and that of her principals, Defendant Trlndle Spring and
Defendant Detweiler Realty advised Plaintiffs and other neighboring property owners In the Trlndle Spring
Development that a proposod flood plain amendment had been approved by the government for the Trlndle
Spring Development, effectively removing Lots 109, 111 and 113 from the flood zone,
17, Relying on these representations, on or about October 13, 1994, Plaintiffs entered an
Agreement of Sale to Purchase Lot #109 In Trlndle Spring Development, alk/a 16 Hazelwood Court,
Mechanlcsburg, Sliver Spring Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, Attached as Exhibit "A" Is a
copy of the Agreement of Sale.
18. As a condliiofl precedent to settlement, Plaintiffs' lender required that a flood certification be
completed to ascertain whether Lot #109 was located in a flood zone and whether flood insurance would be
required,
19. Thereafter Defendant Lenker again represented to Plaintiffs that they would not need flood
insurance for Lot #109, due to FEMA's acceptance of the proposed flood plain amendment which removed
Plaintiffs' property from the flood zone.
20. Pursuant to fhe lender's direction, the services of Defendant Flood Data Services (formerly
Flood Cert) were enlisted in order to determine whether the property was located In a special flood hazard
area, and whether flood Insurance would be required.
21. On or about December 5, 1994, Defendant Flood D(~ta Services certified that Plaintiffs' lot
was not within a special flood hazard area and that flood Insurance would not be necessary. Attached as
Exhibit "8" Is a copy of the flood certification,
22. On or about February 20, 1995, Plaintiffs purchased Lot #109 In Trindle Spring Development
which Included a two-story residential dwelling selecled by Plalnliffs for $180,642.00, Attached as Exhibit
"C" Is a copy of the Agreement for Sale and Purchase of Real Eslate and the Deed dated February 20, 1995
between Plaintiffs and Defendant Trindle Spring.
23, Subsequent to Plaintiffs' purchase of the above-referenced property, Plaintiffs discovered the
follOWing: (a) despite representations by the Defendants to the contrary, their property was Indeed In a flood
zone; (b) despite representations by the Defendants to the contrary, they would need to purchase flood
Insurance; (c) despite representations to the contrary by the Defendants the proposed amendments to the
Development's flood maps were never approved by FEMA; (d) because Plaintiffs' property is located within
a special flood hazard area, fhelr property value has diminished significantly; and (e) because other lots
within Trlndle Spring Development are also located within a special flood .hazard area, the property value for
the entire development has diminished slgnificantiy.

violations of Pennsylvania law regarding unfair trade practices on the part of
several defendants.1 Claims of breaoh of contract, negligence and unfair trade
practices were flied against Defendant First Amerloan Flood Services, Inc.
Defendant has flied preliminary objections to the complaint.
In determining preliminary objections in the form of a demurrer, a court must
accept as true all well pleaded facts, and reasonable Inferences taken therefrom,
set forth In a plaintiff's complaint. Scarpl!!1 v, Weborg. 530 Pa. 366, 368, 609 A.2d
147, 148 (1992). Where any doubt exists, a demurrer should not be granted.
Scarpllli at 147, 609 A.2d at 148.49.
The facts upon which we base this opinion are as follows: on October 13,
1994, Plaintiffs entered Into a agreement of sale to purchase a lot and a home to
be constructed In the Trlndle Spring development, Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania. In order to obtain the necessary financing Plaintiffs' lender, Source
One Mortgage Service Corporation (hereinafter, "Source One"), required a flood
certification to determine If the property was located in a speoial flood hazard area
and would require flood Insurance. On December 5, 1994, Defendant certified that .
Plaintiffs' land was not In a special flood hazard area and flood Insurance was not
I On June 26, 1998, a third party joinder complaint was flied by
Defendants Detweiler Enterprises, Inc. and Edward W. Selk, Sr. joining Robert
G, Hartman, Jr" Hartman & Associates, Inc., Robert G. Hartman & Associates,
lnc, and Whlttock.Hartman as additional defendants.

required. The record reflects that the flood oertlflcatlon was oertlfled to Source One
and It referred to Plaintiffs as borrowers for the subJeot propert~'. A seoond
oertlflcatlon, dated October 25, 1995, once again certified to Souroe One that the
property owned by the Plaintiffs did not require flood Insuranco and was not
located In the special flood hazard area. Plaintiffs signed and dated this
certification on November 13, 1995.
Subsequent to Plaintiffs' purchasf', of the property, Plaintiffs attempted to
refinance their loan In order to finish their basement and construct an In-ground
pool. Source One required another flood certification. On July 16, 1996,
Defendant Issued a revised flood certification which determined that Plaintiffs'
property was within the special flood zone hazard area. Plaintiffs were required
to purchase flood insurance and forced to cancel their plans for a finished
basement and an In-ground pool. Plaintiffs allege that they can no longer use their
property as they had Intended.
Based upon the facts, as pled by the Plaintiffs, Plaintiffs may be
characterized as third party beneficiaries under Pennsylvania law and therefore a
grant of a demurrer Is Improper. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court expressly
adopted Restatement (Seoond) of Contracts ~ 302 (1979) as the standard for
analysis of third party beneficiaries. ~~, 501 Pa. 47, 59-60,
459 A.2d 744, 751 (1983)(grantlng third party beneficiary status to a devisee under
3
98.2526 CIVIL TERM
a will whose Intended legacy was lost due to failure of an attorney to properly draft
the Instrument). Section 302 of the Restatement, titled "Intended and Incidental
Beneficiaries", states:
(1) Unless otherwise agreed between promisor and
promisee, a beneficiary of a promise Is an Intended
beneficiary If recognition of a right to performance In the
beneficiary Is appropriate to effectuate the Intention of the
parties and either
(a) the performance of the promise will satisfy an
obligation of the promisee to pay money to the
beneficiary; or
(b) the circumstances Indicate that the promisee
Intends to give the beneficiary the benefit of the promised
performance.
(2) An incidental beneficiary Is a beneficiary who Is not
an Intended beneficiary.
Restatement (Second) of Contracts ~ 302 (1979).
The court In ~ concluded that Pennsylvania would apply a two part test
to determine If one Is an intended third party beneficiary. ~ at 60, 459 A.2d at
751. In order to assert a claim under a contract as a third party beneficiary, both
parts of the following test must be satisfied:
(1) the recognition of the beneficiary's right must be
"appropriate to effectuate the Intention of the parties,"
and (2) the performance must "satisfy an obligation of the
promisee to pay money to the beneficiary" or "the
circumstances indicate that the promisee Intends to give
the beneficiary the benefit of the promised performanoe,"
1d:.
4
98.2526 CIVIL TERM
The G~ test was applied In ScarplJ~, 530 Pa. 366, 609 A.2d 147
(1992), a case dealing with contracts between parties Involved in residential
development. In Scarpllli, plaintiffs were purchasers of residential lots In a
subdivision which contained deed restrictions, Including one which said homes
could have no larger that a two and one-half car garage. s,QflJl2/ttl at 369. 609 A.2d
at 149. Defendant was an architect, under an Implied contract with the developer
of the subdivision only, who reviewed the plans of plaintiffs and other purchasers
to determine If the plans conformed with the deed restrictions. ScarplW. at 368, 609
A.2d at 149, The case arose because the defendant rejected the plaintiffs' plans
which included three car garages then later approved other homeowners' plans
with three car garages. SQarmw at 369, 609 A.2d at 149.
The court In Scarplltl held that:
a party becomes a third party beneficiary only where both
parties to the contract express an Intention to benefit the
third party, in the contract Itself, ~. the
circumstances are so compelling that recognition of the
beneficiary's right is appropriate to effectuate the
Intention of the parties, and the performance sallsfies an
obligation of the promisee to pay money to the
beneficiary or the circumstances Indicate that the
promisee intends to give the beneficiary the benefit of the
promised performance.
SoarplUl at 372-73, 609 A.2d at 150.51(0Itatlons omitted). The oouri applied the
test and found that the plaintiffs were intended third party beneficiaries. Scarpl11J
5
98.2526 CIVIL TERM
at 373, 609 A.2d at 151. The oourt found that the third party beneflolary
relationship was within the oontemplatlon of the parties to the oontract because the
purpose of the agreement between the architect and the developer was to make
the lots more attractive to future purchasers because they would be assured that
the homeowners would abide by the deed restrictions. ld:. Although plaintiffs were
not parties to the agreement, they had a recognizable right to uniform enforcement
of the deed restrictions. ld:.
At argument in the case at bar, Judge Guido brought to the attention of the
Court an unpublished opinion In the case ~ood. ~t ai, (98.0613 Civil),
written by Judge Bayley. In ~J~, plaintiffs sued a termite Inspection company
and Its employee, a real estate agency and Its agent and an appraiser after they
dlsoovered substantial termite damage to their home two months after they
purchased It. The appraiser demurred, claiming that she owed no duty to the
plaintiffs because she did the appraisal tor FHA purposes and owed a duty to the
federal government only. The court agreed and granted the demurrer. Although
the facts In ~ are comparable to those in the case at bar, Wf!Iib does not
control the outcome sub judice. ~~ can not be extended beyond Its application
to FHA loans and appraisals.
In the case at bar, Defendants undertook the flood certification, knowing that
It would control the Plaintiffs' use of their property. Although Defendant oontracted
6
.
98.2526 CIVIL TERM
with Source One, the purpose of the certification was to determine whether
Plaintiffs would get a loan or be required to purchase flood Insurance, The
certification form reflected that Plaintiffs were the borrowers. Clearly, the benefits
of the flood certification went beyond Source One and gave the Plaintiffs a right to
an accurate flood certification. In applying the two part test, generated under
Restatement (Second) of Contracts ~ 302 (1979), the Court Is compelled to
recognize that the Plaintiffs obtained rights under the contract between Defendant
and Source One and that Defendant Intended to give the benefit of the promised
performance to the Plaintiffs. Both parts of the test are satisfied and Plaintiffs can
be characterized as third party beneficiaries to the contract.
As third party beneficiaries to the contract between Source One and the
Defendant, Plaintiffs can (1 )sue under the contract; (2) assert a claim In negligence
for they were owed a duty of care; and (3) go forward with their case against
Defendant for violation of Pennsylvania law related to unfair trade practices
because they became purchasers of goods or services. Therefore, Defendant's
Preliminary Objections are denled.2
2 With the denial of Defendant's Preliminary Objections, In tho form of a
demurrer, Defendant Is now compelled to answer Plaintiffs' Complaint and has
the opportunity to offer any affirmative defenses to the claim that may apply,
