State Laws
Buyer Beware – Alabama is a “buyer beware” or “caveat emptor” state, which means that the buyer agrees to take possession of the property on an “as-is” basis. There are no guarantees made by the seller.[1]
Buyer’s Questions – If the buyer asks a specific question about the property, the seller has an “obligation to disclose known facts.”[2][3]
Material Defects Affecting Health or Safety – If an agent, on behalf of the seller, has “knowledge of a material defect or condition that affects health or safety and the defect is not known to or readily observable by the buyer,” it must be disclosed.[4]
