### Seller's Property Disclosure – Residential
**Notice to Licensee and Seller:** Only the Seller should fill out this form.
**Notice to Seller:** Florida law¹ requires a **Seller** of a home to disclose to the **Buyer** all known facts that materially affect the value of the property being sold and that are not readily observable or known by the **Buyer**. This disclosure form is designed to help you comply with the law. However, this disclosure form may not address every significant issue that is unique to the Property. You should think about what you would want to know if you were buying the Property today; and if you need more space for additional information, comments, or explanations, check the Paragraph 12 checkbox and attach an addendum.
**Notice to Buyer:** The following representations are made by **Seller** and **not** by any real

The user wants me to transcribe all visible text on this page as clean markdown. I need to:
1. Transcribe ALL visible text
2. Output ONLY the transcribed text — no commentary, no analysis, no preamble
3. Use ### for sections, **bold** for labels, markdown tables for tabular data, - bullets for lists
4. Preserve all numbers, dates, and values exactly as shown
5. Start directly with the content
Let me analyze the page structure:
Headers at top right: Yes, No, Don't Know
Section 4: Plumbing
- (a) What is your drinking water source? public, private, well, other
- (b) Have you ever had a problem...
- (c) Do you have a water treatment system? If yes, owned/leased?
- (d) Do you have a sewer or septic system?
- (e) Are any septic tanks...
- (f) Are there or have there been any defects...
- (g) Have there been any plumbing leaks...
- (h) Are any polybutylene pipes...
- (i) If any answer to questions... please explain
Section 5: Roof and Roof-Related Items
- (a) To your knowledge, is the roof structurally sound...
- (b) The age of the roof is... years OR date installed
- (c) Has the roof ever leaked...
- (d) To your knowledge, has there been any repair...
- (e) Are you aware of any defects...
Section 6: Pools; Hot Tubs; Spas
Note about Florida law
- (a) If the Property has a swimming pool... indicate existing safety features
- (b) Has an in-ground pool... been demolished...
Section 7: Sinkholes
Note about insurance claims
- (a) Does past or present settling...
- (b) Has any insurance claim... If yes, was the claim paid? If the claim was paid, were all the proceeds used...
- (c) If any answer... please explain

I need to format this with the Yes/No/Don't Know columns as a table. Actually, looking at the layout, the Yes/No/Don't Know headers are at the top right, and the checkboxes align with the questions. Some questions don't have these checkboxes.
Let me structure this properly:
The header row "Yes No Don't Know" should be a table header.
Then the questions with checkboxes should be in table rows.
But some items like (a), (d) have checkboxes within the question text itself.
And (b) in section 5 is a fill-in blank.
Actually, looking more carefully:
- Section 4(a) has checkboxes: public, private, well, other (not Yes/No/Don't Know)
- Section 4(b)-(c), (e)-(h) have Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- Section 4(c) also has owned/leased checkboxes
- Section 4(d) has sewer/septic checkboxes
- Section 4(i) is a text field
- Section 5(a), (c), (d), (e) have Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- Section 5(b) is fill-in
- Section 5(d) and (e) have explanation text fields
- Section 6(a) has specific checkboxes for safety features
- Section 6(b) has Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- Section 7(a), (b) have Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- Section 7(b) also has sub-questions with yes/no checkboxes
- Section 7(c) is text field
The "Yes No Don't Know" header at the top right applies to the columns on the right side of the page.
Let me create a comprehensive markdown representation:
For the main table structure, I'll have the Yes/No/Don't Know header, then the questions. But some questions have internal checkboxes that need to be preserved.
Actually, I should transcribe exactly as shown, using tables where appropriate and maintaining the structure.
Let me write this out:
```
| | Yes | No | Don't Know |
|---|---|---|---|
```
Then the questions. But the questions are numbered 4, 5, 6, 7 with subparts.
Better approach: Use sections with ### and then format the content. For the Yes/No/Don't Know questions, I can use a table format or list them with the checkboxes indicated.
Actually, looking at standard property disclosure forms, the Yes/No/Don't Know are column headers aligned with the right side. The questions on the left have checkboxes in those columns.
I'll format it as:
### 4. Plumbing
**(a)** What is your drinking water source? ☐public ☐private ☐well ☐other
Then for the Yes/No/Don't Know questions:
| | Yes | No | Don't Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| **(b)** Have you ever had a problem with the quality, supply, or flow of potable water? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
But wait, the image shows the headers "Yes No Don't Know" at the very top right of the page, spanning across sections 4-7. So these are column headers for the entire page.
Let me try to capture this accurately. I'll use a table layout for the questions that have the Yes/No/Don't Know options.
Actually, a simpler and cleaner approach for markdown:
- For 4(a): Show the checkboxes inline
- For 4(b), (c), (e)-(h): These align with the three columns
- For 4(c) follow-up "If yes, is it owned/leased": Show as indented with checkboxes
- For 4(d): Inline checkboxes
- For 4(i): Text field
Similarly for sections 5, 6, 7.
The challenge is representing the column alignment in markdown. I'll use a table for the items that have the Yes/No/Don't Know columns.
Let me draft this:
```
### 4. Plumbing
**(a)** What is your drinking water source? ☐public ☐private ☐well ☐other
**(b)** Have you ever had a problem with the quality, supply, or flow of potable water?
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
**(c)** Do you have a water treatment system?
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
If yes, is it ☐owned ☐leased?
**(d)** Do you have a ☐sewer or ☐septic system? If septic system, describe the location of each system: _______________________________________________________________
**(e)** Are any septic tanks, drain fields, or wells that are not currently being used located on the Property?
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
**(f)** Are there or have there been any defects to the water system, septic system, drain fields or wells?
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
**(g)** Have there been any plumbing leaks since you have owned the Property?
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
**(h)** Are any polybutylene pipes on the Property?
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
**(i)** If any answer to questions 4(b), 4(c), and 4(e) - 4(h) is yes, please explain:
_____________________________________________________________________________
```
Wait, looking at the image again, the "Yes", "No", "Don't Know" headers are printed once at the top right of the page. But in markdown, I can repeat them or align them properly.
Actually, the most accurate transcription would be to note that these are column headers. But since markdown tables need headers for each table, I'll create a layout that represents the page structure.
Looking more carefully: The checkboxes for Yes/No/Don't Know are in three distinct columns. The header "Yes No Don't Know" spans above these columns.
For a clean markdown transcription, I'll use a table format with columns for the question text and the three options.
Let me try a different approach - just transcribe the text and indicate the checkboxes:
```
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
```
Then for each question that has these options:
**(b)** Have you ever had a problem with the quality, supply, or flow of potable water? ☐ ☐ ☐
But this doesn't show the column alignment clearly.
Actually, looking at the image, the "Yes", "No", "Don't Know" headers are printed at the top. Then the questions are listed with checkboxes aligned under these headers.
I think the best markdown representation is:
For the header section at the top:
```
| | **Yes** | **No** | **Don't Know** |
```
But then I need to fit the questions into this table structure or create separate tables.
Actually, for readability and accuracy, I'll format it as:
### 4. Plumbing
**(a)** What is your drinking water source? ☐public ☐private ☐well ☐other
**(b)** Have you ever had a problem with the quality, supply, or flow of potable water?
☐ Yes ☐ No ☐ Don't Know
Wait, the image shows the checkboxes in columns. Let me look at the exact positioning:
Top right: "Yes", "No", "Don't Know" as column headers.
Then for 4(b), (c), (e), (f), (g), (h) there are three checkboxes aligned with these columns.
For a clean markdown, I should use a table:
| | Yes | No | Don't Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| **(b)** Have you ever had a problem with the quality, supply, or flow of potable water? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| **(c)** Do you have a water treatment system? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
But the text "(c) Do you have a water treatment system?" has follow-up text "If yes, is it owned/leased?" which complicates the table.
Let me look at the layout again:
- 4(c) has the Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- Below that (indented or on a new line): "If yes, is it ☐owned ☐leased?"
So in the table, I could put just the main question, then handle the follow-up separately.
Actually, looking at the form layout, the "Yes/No/Don't Know" columns are a structural element of the page. The questions are in section 4, 5, 6, 7.
Let me transcribe section by section:
**Section 4:**
- 4(a): Inline checkboxes for public/private/well/other - no Yes/No columns
- 4(b): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 4(c): Yes/No/Don't Know columns, plus owned/leased sub-question
- 4(d): Inline checkboxes for sewer/septic, plus text field
- 4(e): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 4(f): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 4(g): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 4(h): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 4(i): Text explanation field
**Section 5:**
- 5(a): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 5(b): Text field for age or date
- 5(c): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 5(d): Yes/No/Don't Know columns, plus explanation text
- 5(e): Yes/No/Don't Know columns, plus explanation text
**Section 6:**
- Note about Florida law
- 6(a): Multiple specific checkboxes for safety features
- 6(b): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
**Section 7:**
- Note about insurance claims
- 7(a): Yes/No/Don't Know columns
- 7(b): Yes/No/Don't Know columns, plus sub-questions with yes/no checkboxes
- 7(c): Text explanation field
The page footer has signature lines for Seller and Buyer.
Let me now write the clean markdown transcription:
I'll put the Yes/No/Don't Know header at the top since it appears at the top of the page.
Actually, looking at the page, the "Yes", "No", "Don't Know" are printed at the top right corner, serving as headers for the columns that run down the right side of the page.
For the cleanest markdown representation, I'll use a table format for the questions that have these three checkboxes, showing the headers once at the top.
But since the sections are broken up, I'll either need to repeat the headers or use a format that shows the column alignment without strict table formatting.
I think the best approach is to transcribe exactly what appears, using markdown checkboxes (☐) and showing the column headers.
Actually, I'll do this:
```
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
```
Then for each applicable question, I'll list it with the checkboxes inline or in a table row.
But the user said "Use ### for sections, **bold** for labels, markdown tables for tabular data"
So I should identify what is tabular. The Yes/No/Don't Know structure is essentially a table with three columns.
Let me structure the response as follows:
1. The column headers "Yes", "No", "Don't Know" appear at the top. Since the questions are interspersed with text fields, I'll create tables for the sections that are tabular.
Actually, looking at standard form transcription, I can do:
### 4. Plumbing
**(a)** What is your drinking water source? ☐public ☐private ☐well ☐other
| | Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| **(b)** Have you ever had a problem with the quality, supply, or flow of potable water? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| **(c)** Do you have a water treatment system? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
If yes, is it ☐owned ☐leased?
**(d)** Do you have a ☐sewer or ☐septic system? If septic system, describe the location of each system: _______________________________________________________________
| | Yes | No | Don't Know |
|:---|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| **(e)** Are any septic tanks, drain fields, or wells that are not currently being used located on the Property? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| **(f)** Are there or have there been any defects to the water system, septic system, drain fields or wells? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| **(g)** Have there been any plumbing leaks since you have owned the Property? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
| **(h)** Are any polybutylene pipes on the Property? | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |
**(i)** If any answer to questions 4(b), 4(c), and 4(e) - 4(h) is yes, please explain:
_____________________________________________________________________________
This looks good. I need to check the exact wording of 4(e) - it says "affect the Property or adjacent properties?" Wait no, that's 7(a).
4(e): "Are any septic tanks, drain fields, or wells that are not currently being used located on the Property?"
4(f): "Are there or have there been any defects to the water system, septic system, drain fields or wells?"
4(g): "Have there been any plumbing leaks since you have owned the Property?"
4(h): "Are any polybutylene pipes on the Property?"
4(i): "If any answer to questions 4(b), 4(c), and 4(e) - 4(h) is yes, please explain:"
Section 5:
5(a): "To your knowledge, is the roof structurally sound and free of leaks?"
5(b): "The age of the roof is ______ years OR date installed _________________________"
5(c): "Has the roof ever leaked during your ownership?"
5(d): "To your knowledge, has there been any repair, restoration, replacement (indicate full or partial) or other work undertaken on the roof? If yes, please explain: ________________________________________________"
5(e): "Are you aware of any defects to the roof, fascia, soffits, flashings or any other component of the roof system? If yes, please explain: ________________________________"
Section 6:
Note: Florida law requires swimming pools, hot tubs, and spas that received a certificate of completion on or after October 1, 2000, to have at least one safety feature as specified by Section 515.27, Florida Statutes.
6(a): "If the Property has a swimming pool, hot tub, or spa that received a certificate of completion on or after October 1, 2000, indicate the existing safety feature(s):"
Then checkboxes: enclosure, approved safety pool cover, required door and window exit alarms, required door locks, none
6(b): "Has an in-ground pool on the Property been demolished and/or filled?"
Section 7:
Note: When an insurance claim for sinkhole damage has been made by the seller and paid by the insurer, Section 627.7073(2)(c), Florida Statutes, requires the seller to disclose to the buyer that a claim was paid and whether or not the full amount paid was used to repair the sinkhole damage.
7(a): "Does past or present settling, soil movement, or sinkhole(s) affect the Property or adjacent properties?"
7(b): "Has any insurance claim for sinkhole damage been made? If yes, was the claim paid? ☐ yes ☐ no If the claim was paid, were all the proceeds used to repair the damage? ☐ yes ☐ no"
7(c): "If any answer to questions 7(a) - 7(b) is yes, please explain:"
Footer: "Seller (____) (____) and Buyer (____) (____) acknowledge receipt of a copy of this page, which is Page 2 of 4"
"SPDR-4x Rev 3/25"
"©2025 Florida REALTORS®"
Now I need to format this with proper markdown.
For section 6(a), the checkboxes are:
☐enclosure that meets the pool barrier requirements
☐approved safety pool cover
☐required door and window exit alarms
☐required door locks
☐none
Let me format everything now.
Wait, I need to check the exact capitalization and punctuation.
4(a): "What is your drinking water source? ☐public ☐private ☐well ☐other"
4(b): "Have you ever had a problem with the quality, supply, or flow of potable water?"
4(c): "Do you have a water treatment system?" then "If yes, is it ☐owned ☐leased?"
4(d): "Do you have a
