My realtor went through all the papers and said a disclosure form was never given.

At the time the disclosure form is presented, the contract for sale is also executed. This contract states that the house is sold "as is". Buyers agree to the as is arrangement because of the disclosure report which shows no problems at all. Upon execution of the contract, the Seller then visibly relaxes and starts to mention problems around the property...problems which were not marked on the disclosure form. Is there recourse?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9198217906327726723.post-81846892774701004772011-05-03T11:39:52.814-05:002011-05-03T11:39:52.814-05:00A short sale transaction is similar to a regular sale in that the property is not owned by a bank.

If the property is being conveyed "As Is" and the buyer understands this transaction is a short sale with bank approval needed, I was told no disclosures need to be signed by the buyer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
