Understanding Seller Disclosures: What Home Sellers in North Central Jersey Need to Know
When selling a home, it’s essential to disclose certain characteristics of the property to potential buyers. A REALTOR® can help you understand your disclosure obligations and guide you through the process. Here’s what you need to know about seller disclosures to ensure a smooth home sale.
What Are Seller Disclosures?
Seller disclosures refer to material defects—issues with a home that may negatively impact its value—that sellers must legally disclose to buyers. The specifics of these disclosures depend on state and local laws. However, common disclosures include:
- Completed repairs
- Natural hazards (e.g., flood zones, earthquake-prone areas)
- Property defects (e.g., foundation issues, plumbing problems)
- Missing essentials (e.g., non-functioning HVAC, broken appliances)
- Land-use limitations (e.g., zoning restrictions, easements)
- Homeowners Association (HOA) regulations
- Deaths on the property
- Other conditions that may impact the home’s value
