I have a verbal agreement to purchase a houseand just found out that the previous owner died in the home last year. In California you have to disclose deaths within the past 3 years when selling or renting. Death does...

Check the disclosures the seller gave you.

If so, they have sent out automatic highest and best disclosures to me in the past after we have signed a contract. 

Hi, Full disclosure: I am a newbie at all of this.I a rental property that needs some attention. 

On our state-required sellers' disclosure, questions like 2 and 3 ask about any boundary disputes?

Tenant in the basement told me they get water when it rains and it has mold - owner didn't put this on their disclosure.

If your plan is to sell after 3-4 years, why not gift your daughter and her partner up to the max of non-disclosure and have her hold the money in a savings account. 

there are carve outs for those that are not lenders but you still have to have in some of these like CA a broker handle the paper work and do the disclosures. 

They don't update listing statuses, we as buyer's agents still have to do some of the agency disclosure paperwork with the seller and estimated net sheets required by our RE commission - so frankly they're a pain in the rear. 

Hi @Jake Berwind, I'm not sure about Florida but in California you can hire a Transaction Coordinator fairly inexpensively and they will provide you with all the necessary contracts, disclosures, etc.
