A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 5114 AS INTRODUCED 11-9-99


The bill would create a new act to require that an inspection of the septic system be conducted prior to the transfer of residential property. Under the bill, "transfer" would mean a transfer of any interest in real estate that was subject to the Seller Disclosure Act (MCL 565.966 to 565.966). A written copy of the inspection would have to be provided by the seller not later than the time prescribed for providing the written disclosure statement under the Seller Disclosure Act.
