Actually, what I said only applies to most states. It seems from a cursory reading about Florida, at least the real estate agent is protected from not having to disclose. The Florida agent is only allowed to disclose what the Buyer approves of, which is different than a lot of states, and there are things like deaths and suicides that the buyer has no obligation in Florida to disclose. I am not sure if a triple murder is covered though.
“... what I said [about disclosure of past incidents that could cause emotional distress] only applies in most states.”
I just checked the seller’s disclosure form for Georgia and there is no question in it about such things. It is the sort of thing that a buyer’s agent might know about, for those few buyers who have one, and he or she would then be compelled to disclose.
I’ve got my house on the market right now, here in Michigan, and there is nothing—absolutely nothing—on any of our disclosures that comes remotely close to an “emotionally-distressed property” declaration, or whatever the heck the nonsense is.
