What Disclosures Are Required to Sell a Home in Massachusetts?
Massachusetts law requires sellers to provide specific disclosures before executing a purchase and sale agreement. While Massachusetts does not mandate a comprehensive state-issued seller disclosure form (unlike some other states), sellers are bound by the general duty to disclose known material defects and must comply with several specific state and federal requirements.
The most critical mandatory disclosures for Massachusetts FSBO sellers include the Lead Paint Disclosure (federal and state requirement for homes built before 1978), the Smoke Detector and Carbon Monoxide Compliance Certificate (issued by your local fire department), and — for homes with a private septic — a Title V Inspection Report.
Failing to disclose a known material defect can expose you to legal liability even after closing. Use the free resources above to ensure your sale is fully compliant with Massachusetts law.
