New 2023 Residential Property Disclosure Document
New 2023 Residential Property Disclosure Document Required January 1, 2023
Louisiana REALTORS® has worked with the Louisiana Real Estate Commission (LREC) on changes to the Property Disclosure Document form (PDD) following passage of Act No. 581 of the 2022 Regular Legislative Session.
Act No. 581 made changes to La. R.S. 9:3198, the statute governing sellers’ disclosures about residential property and authorizing LREC to issue a form for sellers to make these disclosures. The changes to the law and PDD pertain to what has to be disclosed about homeowner association governing documents, adds a question about “common regimes of covenants and building restrictions”, and how potential purchasers can go about obtaining all of these documents.
The new law becomes effective January 1, 2023, and disclosures delivered after January 1, 2023, must include changes that comply with the newly adopted version of the law. However, the document can be used now.
