5. Statutory Real Estate Process Disclaimers

By inquiring about properties, users acknowledge that formal compliance requirements exist outside of this website:

5.1. Residential Real Property Disclosure Act (RRPDA)

The content on this website does not constitute the formal disclosure report required under the Illinois Residential Real Property Disclosure Act (765 ILCS 77/1 et seq.). The seller is obligated to provide the prospective buyer with a separate, statutorily mandated report concerning the seller's actual knowledge of material defects in the residential property prior to contract acceptance.

5.2. Owner and Beneficiary Disclosure (Lease Options)

If the transaction is structured as a Lease-Option Agreement, the Seller is required by Illinois law (44 Ill. Admin. Code § 4.4025) to provide a full written disclosure of the identity of every owner and beneficiary having any interest in the premises. This disclosure must be subscribed and sworn or otherwise affirmed on oath by an authorized party. The responsibility for preparing and delivering this sworn legal affidavit rests with the Seller and is separate from this general website disclaimer.

6. Governing Law

This Disclaimer is governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, United States. Any legal disputes arising under this Disclaimer will be exclusively resolved in the courts of Illinois.
