Most California Sellers Get This Disclosure Wrong (Don’t Be One of Them)

Описание: Most California home sellers don’t realize how strict real estate disclosure laws really are, and one small mistake can lead to serious legal problems after the sale. In this video, I break down what California sellers are legally required to disclose, including the TDS, SPQ, natural hazard disclosures, and more. You’ll learn why disclosures matter, what buyers look for, and how honesty actually protects you during and after escrow. If you’re selling a home in California, this is information you can’t afford to ignore.

Whether you’re selling in Los Angeles County, Santa Clarita Valley, or anywhere in California, understanding disclosures can save you stress, delays, and potential lawsuits. I explain common seller mistakes, what to do if you don’t know an answer, and how proper disclosures build buyer trust and stronger offers. This video is designed to help California homeowners sell with confidence and avoid costly surprises down the road. Watch before you list your home so you can protect yourself and your sale.
