Can you answer this?

Real Estate Agent with Exit Realty First Choice

 

If a seller puts No Representation down the line on a residential property disclosure because they do not live there, are they still responsible for reporting material facts?

 

I went to a house with my buyer and it looks like there was a roof leak. When I asked the agent if there had been a roof leak he said the seller didn't know because he claimed no representation.

 

Because a roof leak is a material fact, is the seller responsible to do his due dilligence and report this fact?

 

 

Thank you,
