FAQ
This is meant to inform buyers about any known issues with the property before the sale goes through.In New York, sellers are obligated to disclose a range of potential problems, such as structural defects, water damage, environmental hazards, or any issues with the plumbing, electrical systems, or heating.
The Property Condition Disclosure Act requires the seller of residential real property to cause this disclosure statement or a copy of thereof to be delivered to a buyer or buyer's agent prior to the signing by the buyer of a binding contract of sale.
``Needs work'' is vague, but if it makes it into a listing description, it means more than just paint and refinish floors. It probably means paint, replace/refinish floors, and dated cabinetry or dated bathrooms. It could also mean that the roof and some of the mechanical systems need replacing.
A conditional offer lets you specify conditions that need to be met before the sale goes through, like getting a building inspection, LIM report, or finance approval. You need to meet those conditions within an agreed timeframe e.g. five working days.
Effective as of March 20, 2024, New York's Property Condition Disclosure Act (the “PCDA”), in effect since 2002, no longer permits a seller of residential real estate to opt out of delivering a Property Condition Disclosure Statement (the “Statement”) by giving the Purchaser a $500 closing credit.
Beyond the condition of the property and environmental hazards, New York law requires sellers to disclose other pertinent information. This includes any zoning violations, restrictions, and whether the property is in a flood zone.
A closing date is established In most cases this is within 30 to 60 days after the offer is accepted. The closing date is when you sign paperwork and take ownership of the home. Keep in mind that buyers don't always take possession of the home at closing.
Sellers Will Be Exposed To Liability Even After Closing may subject the seller to claims by the buyer prior to or after the transfer of title. That means buyers can sue sellers after closing. And the statute of limitations on these claims may be as long as six years.
Examples of material facts that must be disclosed include structural problems with the house, soil problems, a leaking roof, unpermitted construction, neighborhood noise problems, and anything else that a buyer would deem to be important.
