6 Forms You’ll Need
to Sell Your Home
- Property Disclosure Form.
This form requires you to reveal all known defects to
your property. Check with your state government to see
if there is a special form required in your state. Our
assigned agent will also be able to provide you the
same.
- Purchasers Access to Premises
Agreement. This agreement sets conditions for
permitting the buyer to enter your home for activities
such as measuring for draperies before you move.
- Sales Contract. The
agreement between you and the seller on terms and
conditions of sale. Again, check with your state real
estate department to see if there is a required form.
Our assigned agent will also be able to provide you the
same.
- Sales Contract Contingency
Clauses. In addition to the contract, you may need
to add one or more attachments to the contract to
address special contingencies—such as the buyer’s need
to sell a home before purchasing yours.
- Pre- and Post-Occupancy
Agreements. Unless you’re planning on moving out and
the buyer moving in on the day of closing, you’ll need
an agreement on the terms and costs of occupancy once
the sale closes.

If your home was built before 1978, you must provide the
pamphlet to all sellers. You also must have buyers sign
a statement indicating they received the pamphlet. The
Pamphlet can be found online at the EPA website at:
