An asbestos addendum is a form added to a real estate purchase agreement to establish terms regarding asbestos on the property. It requires the seller to disclose whether they’re aware of any asbestos and, if they are, to let the buyer know where it can be found on the property. The addendum may also obligate the seller to take specific actions to make sure the property is safe and habitable, such as performing inspections and having the asbestos professionally removed or sealed before the buyer takes ownership.
