What should I disclose about previous renovations or repairs?
For any renovation or repair completed in your home, disclose what work was done, who performed it, and whether permits were obtained. Undisclosed unpermitted work can become a liability during the buyer's inspection or when they resell. If you are unsure whether a past renovation had permits, check with your local building department before listing.
Why It Matters
Failure to disclose renovation details or permit issues can lead to legal liability and derail a sale during the due diligence period.
