55-2515. RESCISSION BY TRANSFEREE. Subject to section 55-2504,
Idaho Code, if a transferee of residential real property receives a property
disclosure form or an amendment of that form as described in section 55-2508,
Idaho Code, after the transferee has entered into a transfer agreement
with respect to the property, the transferee, after his receipt of the
form or amendment may rescind the transfer agreement in a written, signed
and dated document that is delivered to the transferor or his agents in
accordance with section 55-2510, Idaho Code. Transferee's rescission must
be based on a specific objection to a disclosure in the disclosure statement.
The notice of rescission shall specifically identify the disclosure objected
to by the transferee. Transferee incurs no legal liability to the transferor
because of the rescission including, but not limited to, a civil action
for specific performance of the transfer agreement. Upon the rescission
of the transfer agreement the transferee is entitled to the return of,
and the transferor shall return, any deposits made by the transferee in
connection with the proposed transfer of the residential real property.
Subject to the provisions of section 55-2505, Idaho Code, a rescission
of a transfer agreement may only occur if the transferee's written, signed
and dated document of rescission is delivered to the transferor or his
agent or subagent within three (3) business days following the date on
which the transferee or his agent receives the property disclosure form
prescribed under section 55-2508, Idaho Code. If no signed notice of rescission
is received by the transferor within the three (3) day period, transferee's
right to rescind is waived.
55-2516. GOOD FAITH REQUIRED. Each disclosure required in this
chapter and each act which may be performed in making the disclosure shall
be made in good faith. For the purposes of this chapter, good faith means
honesty in fact, in the conduct of the transaction.
55-2517. FAILURE TO COMPLY. No transfer, subject to this chapter,
shall be invalidated solely because of the failure of any person to comply
with any provision of this chapter. However, any person who willfully or
negligently violates or fails to perform any duties prescribed by any provision
of this chapter shall be liable in the amount of actual damages suffered
by the transferee.
55-2518. DUTIES OF REAL ESTATE LICENSEES UNCHANGED. Nothing contained in this chapter shall in any way limit or reduce the duties that a real estate licensee owes to his or her client or to the general public.
