Seller Property Condition Disclosure Statement (Nebraska) — Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-2,120 (Chapter 76, Real Property); official form promulgated by the Nebraska Real Estate Commission under Title 302, Chapter 1 of the Nebraska Administrative Code
Nebraska is NOT a pure caveat emptor state — it has a genuine statutory affirmative-disclosure regime layered on common-law fraud principles. Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-2,120 requires nearly every seller of residential real property with 1-4 dwelling units to give the buyer a written "Seller Property Condition Disclosure Statement" (form promulgated by the Nebraska Real Estate Commission, current version effective January 1, 2017) before the buyer becomes contractually bound to purchase. The duty is knowledge-based, not a warranty: sellers disclose known conditions as of the date they sign, may mark items "unknown," and are not liable for errors/omissions outside their personal knowledge. This is a real, moderate disclosure regime — more robust than near-total buyer-beware states like Georgia, but simpler than California's multi-form system. No amendments to § 76-2,120 itself were found for 2023-2026; the last substantive change located was Laws 2015, LB34, adding the carbon monoxide alarm disclosure line.
No amendments to Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-2,120 were identified in the 2023, 2024, 2025, or 2026 legislative sessions from available primary sources (Nebraska Legislature statute page; Justia's 2025 Nebraska Revised Statutes compilation). Documented amendment history: original enactment Laws 1994 LB642; amended by Laws 2002 LB863; Laws 2011 LB26; and Laws 2015 LB34 (added carbon monoxide alarm disclosure language). The current official form has been in effect since January 1, 2017 with no indication of a newer version. Given this multi-year gap, treat "no recent change" as the honest finding rather than assuming currency — a direct search of nebraskalegislature.gov's bill tracker for 2025-2026 session bills referencing "76-2,120" returned inconclusive (not definitively negative) results, so this should be spot-checked before being relied on as legal advice.
