Yes but if they don’t disclose problems they are on the hook for it no matter if they sell it as-is.

That's not what "as-is" means, contractually. There may be certain things that, by regulation, must be disclosed (most commonly lead pipes, asbestos, flood plain) but other than that...

In some places, you can also sell a house as "condemned" and then you have no recourse what-so-ever.
