[WSBARP] Disclosure of sex Offender in Neighborhood

[Kristina Driessen]

I think I found the answer in:


RCW 64.06.021<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=64.06.021>
Notice regarding sex offenders.
The notice regarding sex offenders under RCW 64.06.020<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=64.06.020> does not create any legal duty on the part of the seller, or on the part of any real estate licensee, to investigate or to provide the buyer with information regarding the actual presence, or lack thereof, of registered sex offenders in the area of any property, including but not limited to any property that is the subject of a disclosure or waiver of disclosure under this chapter, or that is exempt from disclosure under RCW 64.06.010<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=64.06.010>.

Good Morning:

I have a probate where the home is for sale. Against my directions the PR [who does not live in the home] filled out the Form 17 with answers rather than “ I don’t know”  The first buyer backed out because they did a neighborhood search and found a sex offender in close range.  The question is: Now that we know of the offender is he obligated to tell the next purchaser?
