Multiple disclosure and addendum forms required in MN - really??

[DuWayne Jones]

Today I contacted an attorney to ask for a review of a simple purchase agreement that I put together that I was planning to use. The attorney I spoke with said I need to include multiple disclosures and addendum forms that are required in Minnesota for real estate transactions. She gave me links to eight different forms.  None of these disclosures are referenced in any of the simple 1 to 4 page contract forms I've seen and used as my reference material - except for the typical realtor versions or the State Bar versions.  I want my contract to be legitimate, but not intimidating or full of unnecessary forms.  Does anyone have advice on this subject - or recommend a real estate attorney in MN that I could contact for a second opinion?
