Property Condition Disclosure Statement

On March 20, 2024, a new law came into effect which significantly modifies the New York Property Condition Disclosure Statement (PCDS) which replaces and modifies a law that has been on the books since 2002. This law applies to sales of residential real estate, (residential real estate means a 1-4 family dwelling used or intended to be used as a residence; unimproved land, condos, coops and HOA sales are not covered.)

Several new questions related to flooding and mold issues were added to the typical structural and mechanical ones contained in the prior PCDS.

Previously, the PCDS could be exempted or basically ignored by a seller if the seller gave the buyer a credit of $500 in place of completing and delivering a PCDS. This provision has now been eliminated. That credit was basically a discharge of liability on the part of the seller. The elimination of the $500 credit could have legal implications for a home seller who intentionally deceives or provides false statements in the PCDS since the new law requires its delivery prior to the execution of the contract. The law is clear – A knowingly false or incomplete statement by the seller on this form may subject the seller to claims by the buyer prior to or after the transfer of title-. We can assume that lawyers representing buyers would like the PCDS to be added to the contract of sale. It is uncertain if the requirement can be waived.

It is very important to keep in mind that the PCDS is not a substitute for any professional inspections or tests that buyers should conduct prior to buying a house. It is also not a warranty of any kind by the seller or its agents. The PCDS is mandatory and cannot be avoided except in very limited situations.

We all have questions regarding how this law is going to impact the industry. It is too early to tell. The only suggestion we have for our selling clients is fill out the PCDS to the best of your knowledge. Include evidence of any improvements, repairs or claims pertaining to the property. If you owned and maintained your property with pride, chances are you have nothing to worry about.

GioHomes Real Estate, LLC. Will Start Listing
Properties for Sale for 3% Commission
Instead of the Standard 5 – 6%

The announcement comes as a result of the NAR's $418 million settlement on Friday, even thought the settlement is subject to a judge's approval.

WHITE PLAINS, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, March 19, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The National Association of Realtors (NAR) announced on Friday a settlement with groups of home-sellers agreeing to end a landmark antitrust lawsuit by paying $418 million in damages and eliminating rules on commissions, even though the settlement is subject to a judge’s approval. GioHomes Real Estate recognized the settlement as overdue. In their view, the elimination of rules on commission guidelines represents a decoupling of a commission system that was perceived as unfair by sellers.

Eastchester NY Real Estate and Homes for Sale

The town of Eastchester is located in southern Westchester County, and encompasses the villages of Bronxville and Tuckahoe.

A Brief History

Eastchester started out as a settlement for ten families who migrated from Fairfield, Connecticut during 1664. The town was established a year after, under an agreement known as the “Eastchester Covenant.” The town went through a lot of changes in the succeeding years and was a farming community at the beginning of the American Revolution.

Today, Eastchester is a community filledwith a wide variety of vibrant neighborhoods as well as a diverse mix of parks, restaurants, shopping hubs, good schools, and endless opportunities for recreation.

Shopping, Dining, and Recreation Options

Eastchester has many areas that are ideal for outdoor activities and all kinds of sports. There are parks of all sizes – from mini-parks perfect for picnics to sprawling areas such as Lake Isle Park, a terrific spot for swimming, golf or tennis. Tuckahoe residents can drop by the nearby Parkway Oval, a 14-acre park that features a basketball court and fields for baseball, softball, and soccer. The park also provides access to a jogging and bicycle path that is located alongside the Bronx River.

For those who enjoy shopping, there are a good number of shops and retail hubs around Eastchester, including Vernon Hills Shopping Center, an outdoor mall with popular tenants such as Lord & Taylor, Gap, and Banana Republic. You can also find many strip malls that include chains such as Old Navy and Eastern Mountain Sports.

Fantastic restaurants abound in Eastchester. These offer a wide variety of cuisines, and there are options for everything from a night out with your significant other or with the whole family. Try some Italian food at Burrata Wood Fired Pizza or Polpettina, sample French cuisine at Jackie’s Bistro Restaurant, or some mouthwatering burgers at Piper’s Kilt.
