When reviewing a newly received offer to purchase with a seller, it’s a good idea to take the time to also review the Seller’s Property Disclosure Statement to ensure that nothing needs to be updated before responding to the buyer’s offer. A statement that is no longer accurate might be considered out of compliance with the statutory requirement that the seller “complete” the Statement.
