Sellers don’t have to disclose if there is a ghost 👻 on the property 😳
Virginia is generally a “buyer beware” state, which means it’s important to do your own due diligence. Don’t assume every potential issue will be disclosed by the seller.
Virginia sellers are required to disclose certain property conditions—and what they need to disclose can depend on the property and the circumstances.
⚠️ Flood risks
⚠️ Certain code or zoning violations
⚠️ Certain environmental issues
⚠️ Septic & stormwater concerns
⚠️ Other property-specific disclosures
🔎 Before you buy:
• Get a thorough home inspection
• Review required seller disclosures
• Check flood risk and other property-specific concerns
• Ask questions about anything that raises a red flag
• Understand what you’re agreeing to before signing
💡 The right questions BEFORE you buy can save you from expensive surprises later.
