Indiana Sellers Property Disclosure Statement

In Indiana, sellers of 1–4 unit residential properties are required under Indiana Code 32-21-5 to complete a Seller’s Residential Real Estate Sales Disclosure form, which explains the property’s known physical condition based on the seller’s current actual knowledge. This disclosure must be completed, signed, and delivered to the buyer before an offer is accepted . If a seller fails to provide the disclosure, the buyer may be able to void the contract prior to closing, and a seller who knowingly provides false or misleading information may be subject to legal liability for damages. Additionally, sellers must update the disclosure if the property’s condition materially changes before closing.
