06/2021 - Updated Forms: Hold Harmless & Release Forms Regarding COVID-19
- Buyers'/Tenants' Hold Harmless & Release Regarding COVID-19
- Sellers'/Landlords' Hold Harmless & Release Regarding COVID-19
- Broker Open House Hold Harmless & Release Regarding COVID-19
The Hold Harmless and Release Regarding COVID-19 forms for Sellers and Landlords, as well as for Buyers and Tenants, each have been combined and there now is one form for Buyers/Tenants and one form for Sellers/Landlords. These forms have been streamlined and are more user friendly. For example, the new Seller/Landlord form only has to be signed once by the Seller/Landlord for their listed property rather than them having to sign a new form every time a new Buyer or Tenant visits the property.
The same holds true for the Buyers'/Tenants' Hold Harmless. A Broker only will have to have one form signed by the Buyer or Tenant and that form will cover all the "properties" that the Buyer or Tenant will visit rather than having a new form signed for each property.
The Broker Open House Hold Harmless and Release has also been updated and streamlined to cover multiple open houses that a Broker may hold for a Seller and that a Buyer's Agent may attend for the property.
It is recommended that the COVID-19 Hold Harmless forms be used for the foreseeable future since people still are carrying and can catch COVID-19. The form therefore continues to protect real estate licensees, buyers and sellers, as well as tenants and landlords, from a claim about having caught COVID-19 during a showing.
The date on the bottom of the new forms is 6/2021.
01/2021 - New Form: NJ REALTORS® Open Public Records Act Notice to Buyers
- New Jersey REALTORS® Open Public Records Act Notice To Buyers, explains to buyers that they can obtain documents relating to a property under OPRA. It also includes examples of documents that a buyer may want to request, such as open and closed permits, documents about variances, code citations, inspections, certificate of occupancy, a list of off-site conditions that may affect the value of the property and ordinances indicating if the property is in an air safety zone.
- Buyers' agents must be aware that there is potential Consumer Fraud Act ("CFA") liability for buyers' agents who obtain information on behalf of buyers that proves to be false or misleading. This would include responses to a request for documents about a property under the New Jersey Open Public Records Act ("OPRA") that a buyers' agent provides to buyers that turns out to include incorrect information. It is best to have the buyer obtain such documents but, if you obtain any information on behalf of a buyer, be very careful to ensure that it is accurate.
