What is a Property Disclosure Statement (PDS) in BC?
The seller's declaration every buyer should read carefully
The Property Disclosure Statement is the seller's written declaration about the property's known condition. Here's what it covers and its legal weight.
The PDS is the seller's best-knowledge disclosure. It is NOT a warranty and it does NOT replace a professional home inspection.
'Do not know' answers
A seller may answer 'Do not know'. In law, 'Do not know' is a valid response — but a seller who knowingly conceals a material latent defect is exposed to civil liability regardless of the PDS.
The PDS is typically attached to the accepted contract
Most BC accepted contracts include the PDS as a schedule. If the seller declines to complete a PDS, the contract typically notes that fact — a red flag worth investigating.
Estate/probate sales frequently have no PDS
Executors selling on behalf of an estate typically do not have first-hand knowledge and often decline to complete the PDS. That's normal in probate — the buyer's inspection matters more.
