Under Tennessee law, which of the following is NOT a valid exemption from the Tennessee Residential Property Condition Disclosure requirement when transferring residential property?

Correct Answer

D) A transfer where the buyer waives the disclosure in writing after negotiation

Under the Tennessee Residential Property Condition Disclosure Act (Tenn. Code Ann. § 66-5-201 et seq.), there is NO provision allowing a buyer to waive the disclosure requirement through written negotiation. The disclosure requirement is a statutory mandate, and the exemptions are specifically enumerated in the statute. A buyer's written waiver is NOT one of the recognized exemptions. The seller must provide the disclosure form for all covered transactions unless a specific statutory exemption applies.

Answer Options
A
A transfer of property through a foreclosure sale
B
A transfer of new construction covered by a builder's warranty
C
A transfer between co-owners of the property
D
A transfer where the buyer waives the disclosure in writing after negotiation
