Colorado REO Compliance Overview
Selling REO properties in Colorado involves specific legal and disclosure requirements. Key considerations for asset managers include:
- Commission-approved forms: Colorado transactions use contracts and disclosures approved by the Colorado Real Estate Commission, including the Seller’s Property Disclosure. Lender-sellers typically disclose only what they actually know about the property.
- AS-IS sales: Colorado REO properties are typically sold AS-IS, with buyers relying on their own inspections.
- Lead-Based Paint Disclosure: Federally required for properties built before 1978.
- Local ordinances: Some municipalities have additional inspection or disclosure requirements for REO sales. Our team is familiar with local requirements across all counties we serve.
Metrolink Realty handles all required disclosures and ensures transactions are fully compliant with Colorado and federal law.
