More details to this question:
My aunt has just purchased a condo in NYC. Her realtor advised that the hot water boiler was in good condition but the first day she moved in, she found the hot water boiler was not working/or had just broken down. She was also advised that heat and hot water was included in the maintenance fee and it actually is not. Is it possible to be compensated for this? Thank you.

No. Her lawyer screwed up. The contract should have covered these issues, and the mechanicals should have been inspected if these were her responsibility. The contract, if the form was used, placed the burden on your aunt and made the sale as is.
