If the seller will be putting on a new roof, there's no need to mention it in the public remarks. Possibly in the agent remarks.

Know I would not use my limited remarks to put what was needed for the property. That is what a personal and home inspection are for.

You did just what I would have done. I don't like to put much about needed repairs unless the seller is doing the repairs and it makes it a plus to do so.

I believe if you have material knowledge you have to reveal it according to licensing law.

I would mention it in the agents remarks. Not only to protect myself but so any agent showing the property can make their clients aware and what will be taking place to remedy. Disclosure can prevent a lot of side ways looks.

It will give a negative image about the houseif you write it in public remarks.. You can mention in agent remarks .

I agree with most. You can put in that the seller is replacing the roof, but I wouldn't go any further with it!

Ok... I think I will take it off the public remarks. The house is priced correctly with the new roof my client intends to put on at closing. The reason for the delay is that she doesen't have the money up front. The roof has always been in the sellers disclosure. I have had roofers out and it will never pass an appraisal.

Is the seller going to replace the roof BEFORE closing, or give credit for the roof?
If as you state, the seller will replace roof BEFORE closing, why not replace roof NOW?
Regarding your question, I would not put that in the public remarks OR Realtor remarks. In the disclosure the buyer who makes a offer will find, age of roof, HVAC and all the things the seller finds pertinent.
Be prepared to demonstrate the house is priced according to CONDITION and use your exceptional negotiating skill to get the best outcome for the party your represent. In this case, don't get into a double-sider.

My first question is: how do you know it needs a new roof? We as agents need to be careful about what we represent if we are not licensed inspectors/roofers. Of course, an argument can be made that if it doesn't leak, it's functioning for its intended purpose and if the disclosure indicates how old the roof is, a buyer can draw their own conclusions and negotiate what they want after an inspection.

I have it in the disclosure. I am thinking of taking it out. I wasn't sure if it would scare or reassure the buyer.

I wouldn't mention it in the public remarks. We also have a seller's property disclosure form in my state. I would make sure the sellers have it in there.

The question is whether it would make people relieved that we planned to fix the roof or scare them off?

We have a roofing broker that will do an inspection for free, and what I may recommend. Not being a professional roofer, would not give any professional opinion.
