AI Summary

  • Amends Michigan's Seller Disclosure Act to update the required disclosure form by changing language from "shall" to "must" in multiple instances for consistency in legal terminology.

  • Adds new question 11 requiring sellers to disclose whether the property is located in an inundation zone and, if yes, whether the seller provided the buyer with a map showing the property's location in that zone.

  • Renumbers subsequent disclosure questions (flood insurance becomes question 12, mineral rights becomes question 13) and updates "Other Items" section formatting.

  • Makes minor grammatical and stylistic edits throughout the disclosure form including capitalization changes (e.g., "Range/Oven" to "Range/oven," "City Water System" to "City water system").

  • Clarifies that a form printed before January 1, 2006 that was compliant at that time may continue to be used and is considered compliant until April 1, 2006.
