South Dakota property sellers are generally required to disclose known defects when selling homes, but this bill carves out an exception for newly constructed houses that have never been occupied—sellers of these new homes no longer need to provide a full disclosure statement. However, sellers must still disclose any specific defects they know about or have reason to suspect in the new property.
