Changes in Illinois Home Seller Disclosure Requirements Are Now in Effect
It was a small item on the news the other day and you may have missed it, but Illinois Governor Quinn signed a law mandating some minor changes to two of the disclosure forms that most home-sellers are required to provide to buyers. These changes are effective immediately. They are as follows:
- Residential Real Property Disclosure Report. Item 23 has been added, requiring the seller to disclose any knowledge that the property was used for the manufacture of methamphetamine.
- Disclosure of Information on Radon Hazards. Article C of the seller’s disclosure has been expanded to require the seller to also disclose any knowledge of prior elevated radon concentrations that have been mitigated or remediated.
