A Delaware property disclosure statement is a form that a home seller provides to prospective buyers to disclose their property’s material defects. Prior to signing a listing agreement, the seller must complete this disclosure to report whether the property suffers from structural damage, pest infestations, plumbing-related concerns, zoning issues, and to otherwise describe the condition of the home. While the seller is legally responsible for the report’s correctness, buyers are still encouraged to assess the property with the help of a professional home inspector.

Unless the property transfer is exempt from disclosure under § 2577, sellers are required to divulge material defects if the property being transferred contains one (1) to four (4) dwelling units.

Laws – § 2572
