Under the Kentucky Seller Disclosure Act, which of the following properties is generally EXEMPT from the required seller's disclosure of property condition?

Correct Answer

B) A residential property transferred as a gift between family members

Under KRS 324.360, the Kentucky Seller Disclosure Act requires sellers of residential real property to complete a disclosure form regarding the property's condition. However, certain transfers are exempt, including transfers made as gifts or between family members without a sale transaction. Other common exemptions include transfers by court order, foreclosure sales, and transfers between co-owners. Standard arm's-length sales of single-family homes, condominiums, and new construction sold by builders to first buyers are generally subject to disclosure requirements.

A
A single-family home being sold by an owner-occupant
B
A residential property transferred as a gift between family members
C
A condominium unit listed with a licensed broker

A newly constructed home sold by a builder to the first occupant
