[WSBAPT] Seller Disclosure Form

Tue Aug 22 11:27:20 PDT 2017

A Personal Representative is exempt from completing a form 17 because RCW 64.06.010 specifically exempts Personal Representatives. A Trustee is not so exempt, but a form 17 can still be waived by agreement.

My general advice to Personal Representative clients is not to complete the form 17, but to disclose known issues (not suspected, or might have heard about, but Known) particularly ones that they may have worked to resolve.

What basis do you opine that the PR does not need to execute a Form 17?  Is there a case on point?  I'm getting ready to sell a home/land in Belfair, WA...

Listmates,

In the past, I have not had my PRs execute a Seller Disclosure form when selling real estate from a probate as is my understanding that the PR is not obligated to do so.

Question:  Is the successor trustee of a revocable living trust obligated to complete the form when selling from a revocable living trust where the trustor is deceased?
