What disclosures do I need to make in New Jersey?

New Jersey requires sellers to complete a Seller's Property Condition Disclosure Statement covering known defects in the roof, basement, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and other systems. You must also disclose any lead-based paint for homes built before 1978 and any known environmental hazards.

Why It Matters

Failure to disclose known issues can lead to legal liability after the sale. Full disclosure protects both you and the buyer.
