Step 5 - Disclose, Disclose, Disclose . . .
There are too many disclosure forms and reports to properly address in this short paragraph. Most of these disclosure forms should be filled out and/or signed by you at the time of signing the Listing Agreement. The most important disclosure to mention here is the "TDS" or Transfer Disclosure Statement. This form basically requires you to disclose every material issue, which may effect a buyer's decision to purchase your property. This form is of particular importance for once a Buyer receives it, they have three days to cancel the contract for no reason. If you have a good real estate agent working for you, they will always insist on delivering this form to the buyer at the time you receive an offer or right when you have an accepted an offer!
