Question 37

Property condition disclosure is completed by the seller.

The seller is responsible for completing the property condition disclosure, providing necessary information about the property's condition to potential buyers.

A) broker.

The broker does not complete the property condition disclosure; rather, the broker facilitates the transaction and provides guidance to the listing agent and the seller. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

B) listing agent on behalf of broker.

While the listing agent works under the broker, the listing agent is not the entity that completes the property condition disclosure. The agent may assist the seller in completing it, but the ultimate responsibility lies with the seller. Thus, this option is incorrect.

C) listing agent on behalf of seller.

Although the listing agent may help the seller with the disclosure process, the actual completion and signing of the property condition disclosure must be done by the seller themselves. Hence, this option is also incorrect.

D) seller.

The seller is the correct party responsible for completing the property condition disclosure. This document must accurately reflect the condition of the property as known to the seller, making this option correct.

Conclusion

The property condition disclosure must be completed by the seller, as they possess the firsthand knowledge of the property's condition. The other options incorrectly attribute this responsibility to agents or brokers, who assist but do not fulfill this legal requirement. Thus, D is the definitive answer to the question posed.
