Real Estate Condition Report PDF Details

For individuals looking to buy or sell property in Wisconsin, understanding the Real Estate Condition Report (RECR) form is a critical step in the process. Created by the Wisconsin REALTORS® Association, this document plays a pivotal role by disclosing the condition of a property located within the state, as stipulated under Section 709.02 of the Wisconsin Statutes. It serves not as a warranty, but as a transparent communication from the seller to the prospective buyer about the property's state, including any known defects or issues. Defining a "defect" as a condition that significantly impacts the property's value or could potentially harm future occupants' health and safety, the form demands honesty and thoroughness from the seller. Through a series of detailed prompts, the RECR requires sellers to report on a wide range of subjects including, but not limited to, the structural integrity, presence of hazardous materials such as asbestos or lead, and any issues with critical systems like plumbing, electrical, heating, and air conditioning. Additionally, it touches on external factors that might affect the property, such as boundary disputes, zoning regulations, and environmental conditions like flooding. Sellers must certify the accuracy of their disclosures, emphasizing the importance of truthful representation. Prospective buyers are encouraged to seek professional advice or inspections to evaluate the property themselves, promising a level of diligence and security in real estate transactions within Wisconsin.
