A statement required by law, in which sellers of particular kinds of property, or under certain circumstances, must reveal specified information to potential buyers. Many sellers of investment interests in real estate are required to disclose their own interest and even the profit potential; home sellers may disclose defects, even though they have been corrected. Failing to provide adequate disclosure may give the buyer grounds for a lawsuit.
