Answer:
According to the New York Department of State, Division of Licensing Services, a property condition disclosure statement is to be provided to prosective purchasers of real estate. The contents of that statement are intended to provide the buyers with as much information as the Seller can provide about items that materially affect the property. Typically, sellers are not required to disclose things such as suicides as they may not be seen as affecting the functionality or construction of the home.
