What Kansas Requires in a Purchase Contract
These are the contract and disclosure requirements our research identified for Kansas residential transactions, with statute citations. Requirements change; always confirm the current rule before closing.
No general statutory seller property disclosure form
K.S.A. 58-30,106 (BRRETA)
Kansas has no statute mandating a seller property condition disclosure form; BRRETA requires licensees (not sellers) to disclose all adverse material facts actually known, including environmental hazards and physical defects. Standard KAR/local board forms are used by custom.
Applies to: all residential (licensee duty only)
Contract for Deed Act requirements (if using installment contracts)
K.S.A. 58-5201 et seq. (2024 HB 2562, ch. 63, eff. July 1, 2024)
For 1-4 unit owner-occupied contract-for-deed sales (5+ payments): seller must hold title and keep it unencumbered (with disclosed-mortgage exceptions), contracts/affidavits of equitable interest are recordable, buyer gets statutory notice-and-cure before forfeiture (30/90 days); violations are KCPA deceptive acts.
Applies to: contract-for-deed sales of residential 1-4 occupied as buyer's principal residence
