Under the Nebraska Seller Property Condition Disclosure Act, all of the following statements about the disclosure requirement are correct EXCEPT:

Correct Answer

D) The buyer and seller may mutually agree in writing to waive the disclosure requirement

Under the Nebraska Seller Property Condition Disclosure Act (Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 76-2,120 to 76-2,130), the disclosure requirement cannot be waived by mutual agreement of the buyer and seller. This is a mandatory statutory requirement, and unlike some other states where disclosure can be waived by sophisticated parties, Nebraska law does not permit waiver of this obligation. The statement in option C is therefore incorrect — making it the answer to this EXCEPT question.

Answer Options
A
The seller must complete the disclosure statement personally based on the seller's actual knowledge
B
The disclosure requirement applies to residential properties with one to four dwelling units
C
The seller must provide the disclosure before or at the time the purchase agreement is signed
D
The buyer and seller may mutually agree in writing to waive the disclosure requirement
