Jennifer is selling her home in Edmond, Oklahoma through a licensed broker. The buyer submits an offer on Friday, but the broker realizes the Property Condition Disclosure Statement has not yet been delivered. The statement is delivered the following Tuesday, before the seller accepts. What is the compliant next step under the current RPCDA?

Correct Answer

B) The buyer should acknowledge receipt and confirm the offer in writing before the seller accepts

Under 60 O.S. §834, if a disclaimer or disclosure statement is delivered after an offer has been made, the offer may be accepted only after the purchaser acknowledges receipt and confirms the offer in writing. This replaces the prior unsupported five-business-day rescission framing in the old item.

Answer Options
A
The buyer may rescind within three business days after receiving the statement
B
The buyer should acknowledge receipt and confirm the offer in writing before the seller accepts
C
No delivery is needed because the offer was already submitted
D
The buyer may rescind within five calendar days after receiving the statement
