Does a home seller have to disclose the property’s condition in Oregon?

In Oregon, a seller of a home with one to four dwelling units, a condominium unit, a timeshare or a manufactured dwelling on the seller’s own land must complete, sign and deliver the statutory seller’s property disclosure statement to each buyer who makes a written offer, and unless the buyer has waived it in writing the buyer may revoke the offer within five business days after delivery and get all deposits back, or at any time before closing if the seller refuses to provide the statement. The buyer revokes by delivering a separate signed written statement disapproving the seller’s disclosure, and the right ends when the buyer closes. The statement becomes part of the offer and acceptance, and the act does not limit other remedies such as actions for fraud or negligence. The first sale of a never-occupied home, sales by financial institutions that acquired the property by foreclosure, sales by court-appointed fiduciaries and sales by government agencies are excluded. Federal law separately requires a lead-based paint disclosure when selling most homes built before 1978. This is ORS 105.464, 105.465, 105.470, 105.475.
