Direct staff to draft real estate disclosure law requiring sellers to reveal property information
In Plain English
The city currently has no law requiring property sellers to disclose potential problems to buyers. Staff will present a proposed policy that could require sellers to reveal issues like structural damage, environmental hazards, or zoning restrictions. If approved, buyers would receive more information before purchasing homes in the city.
