SELLER’S DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
321 N Central Ave, St. Louis, MO 63105
Note: If Seller knows or suspects some condition which might lower the value of the property being sold or adversely affect Buyer's decision to buy the property, then Seller needs to disclose it. This statement will assist Buyer in evaluating the property being considered. Real estate brokers and agents involved in the sale do not inspect the property for defects, and they cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information in this form.
TO SELLER: Your truthful disclosure of the condition of your property gives you the best protection against future charges that you violated your legal obligation to Buyer by concealing a material defect(s), lead-based paint, use as a site for methamphetamine production or storage and/or any other disclosure required by law. Your knowledge of the property prior to your ownership may be relevant. In the case of a material defect, for example, if information that you possess indicates some persistent pattern of a problem not completely remedied, such information should be included in this disclosure in order to achieve full and honest disclosure. Your answers or the answers you fail to provide, either way, may have legal consequences, even after the closing of the sale. This questionnaire should help you meet your disclosure obligation, but it may not cover all aspects of your property. If you know of or suspect some condition which would substantially lower the value of the property, impair the health or safety of future occupants, or otherwise affect Buyer's decision to buy your property, then use the space at the end of this form to describe that condition.
TO BUYER: THIS INFORMATION IS A DISCLOSURE ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A PART OF ANY CONTRACT BETWEEN BUYER AND SELLER. If you sign a contract to purchase the property, that contract, and not this disclosure statement, will provide for what is to be included in the sale. So, if you expect certain items, appliances, or equipment included, you must specify them in the contract. Since these disclosures are based on the Seller's knowledge, you cannot be sure that there are, in fact, no problems with the property simply because the Seller is not aware of them The answers given by the Seller are not warranties of the condition of the property. Thus, you should condition your offer on a professional inspection of the property. You may also wish to obtain a home protection plan/warranty. Due to the variety of insurance, requirements, products, and arrangements Buyer should contact appropriate party to determine insurance coverage needed. Conditions of the property that you can see on a reasonable inspection should either be taken into account in the purchase price or you should make the correction of these conditions by the Seller a requirement of the sale contract.
