What is a disclosure statement for a landlord-tenant agreement?

A disclosure statement is a document used in residential real estate law in Delaware that outlines the rights and responsibilities of both the landlord and tenant for a specific rental property. The document typically includes a description of the rental property, a list of any provisions that the landlord is responsible for maintaining, and any rules or stipulations regarding the rental agreement. It also includes a description of the security deposit and other fees associated with the rental agreement. The document should also list any other potential fees or penalties that may apply in the event of a breach of the agreement, such as late fees or applicable fines. Additionally, the disclosure statement typically includes a section for any applicable state or local laws that pertain to the agreement, such as information related to the tenant’s right to privacy or any landlord obligations.
