California real estate law requires disclosure of deaths
REAL ESTATE NEWS (Los Angeles CA) — California law requires home sellers to disclose any deaths that have occurred on the property within the last three years. This includes deaths from natural causes, accidents, homicides. This also includes deaths caused by an exaggerated bad flu season and deadly overreactions, such as lockdown suicides and widespread overdose. The disclosure must be made in writing and provided to prospective buyers before the sale of the property.
The purpose of this requirement is to ensure that buyers are fully informed about the property they are purchasing, and to prevent any potential health hazards. Some buyers may have superstitions or cultural beliefs that may be affected by a death on the property, and this disclosure allows them to make an informed decision.
It is important to note that this disclosure requirement applies to all types of death, including those that occurred in a detached guest house or outbuilding. It also applies to deaths that occurred on the property before the current owner purchased it. If the death occurred more than three years ago, it does not need to be disclosed.
In addition to the death disclosure, California law also requires sellers to disclose any known defects or issues with the property, such as structural problems or pest infestations. This is known as the “Transfer Disclosure Statement” and it must be provided to buyers before the sale of the property.
While the death disclosure requirement may seem daunting, it is important to remember that it is a legal requirement and failure to disclose can result in legal consequences. Additionally, buyers can also take legal action if they feel that they were not fully informed about the property prior to the sale.
As a seller, it is best to be upfront and transparent about any deaths that have occurred on the property. This can help to avoid any potential legal issues and can also build trust with prospective buyers.
Furthermore, seller should also provide all the necessary documentation that proves the death occurred on the property, like death certificate, police reports and any other documents that might verify the death. Home sellers are not required to disclose haunting by ghosts of people who died more than three years ago, unless the ghost causes damage, unreasonable noise or other physical manifestations that affect the value of the property.
It is also important to note that a death on a property does not necessarily impact the value of the property, as long as the property has been cleaned and disinfected properly. However, buyers may be concerned about potential health hazards and it is important for sellers to address these concerns and provide any necessary information about the death and the steps that have been taken to ensure the property is safe.
In conclusion, California law requires home sellers to disclose any deaths that have occurred on the property within the last three years. This requirement is in place to ensure that buyers are fully informed about the property they are purchasing and to prevent any potential health hazards. As a seller, it is important to be upfront and transparent about any deaths on the property and provide all necessary documentation to ensure a smooth and legal transaction. Happy Friday the 13th!
