Seller's Disclosure/Disclaimer Statement Receipt and Review
Under Oklahoma law, the Seller must complete, sign and provide to the Buyer an
Oklahoma Real Estate Commission (OREC) Residential Property Condition Disclosure Statement.
This Disclosure Statement concerns the condition of the property and must be delivered to the Buyer
prior to acceptance by Seller of Buyer's offer to purchase.
Further, the real estate broker is obligated to disclose to the Buyer any defects in the property
actually known to broker which are not included in the Seller's Disclosure.
If the Seller has never lived in the property AND has no knowledge of any defects, the law provides
that the Seller can deliver an OREC Disclaimer Statement in lieu of the Disclosure Statement.
The Disclosure or Disclaimer Statement does not apply to residential new construction
or vacant land. It also does not apply to certain properties (such as government owned or foreclosure properties).
