Summary
This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - The Transfer Disclosure Statement (TDS) is the seller's duty to disclose all KNOWN material facts for residential 1-4 unit properties. - An agent's duty to conduct a diligent visual inspection is separate and independent from the seller's disclosure duties. - Agents must disclose all material facts and 'red flags' they observe in reasonably accessible areas of the property. - Even if a seller is exempt from providing a TDS (e.g., in a foreclosure), the agent is NEVER exempt from their visual inspection duty. - The standard of care is what a reasonably prudent licensee would observe and disclose, not that of a home inspector.
