Property: land sales; seller disclosure statement; revise to reflect septic tank inspection. Amends sec. 7 of 1993 PA 92 (MCL 565.957).
This bill updates the Michigan Seller Disclosure Act to require sellers to disclose information about septic tank inspections when selling property. The change modifies existing laws to ensure that potential buyers receive accurate details regarding the condition of septic systems as part of the standard disclosure process. By revising Section 7 of the 1993 Property Act, the legislation aims to improve transparency in real estate transactions involving homes with septic systems. This adjustment directly affects home sellers and buyers who need to understand the status of on-site wastewater treatment facilities.
