In Florida, which party is responsible for providing the Seller's Disclosure of Property Condition?

• A. The Buyer
• B. The Seller
• C. The Licensee
• D. The Title Company

Answer: (B)

The party responsible for providing the Seller's Disclosure of Property Condition in Florida is the seller. The form is filled out by the seller to reveal known material defects or conditions that could affect the property's value or desirability. Because the seller has direct knowledge of the property, they are the one who must furnish this information to the buyer. The licensee’s role is to present the form, explain its purpose, and help ensure it’s completed and delivered, but they are not the source of the disclosure. The title company handles closing and title matters, not the disclosure of property condition. Remember, the disclosure is about known issues and is not a warranty, so buyers should still rely on inspections and evaluations as part of due diligence.
