The Alaska seller disclosure form, or Residential Real Property Transfer Disclosure Statement, is a 13-page document developed by the Alaska Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development. It’s designed to help you disclose any known issues or facts about your home that could affect its value or a buyer’s decision to move forward. Alaska law requires sellers to disclose all material facts — in other words, anything that could impact the buyer’s use or enjoyment of the property.
