Summary

The bill requires sellers (unit owners) to give buyers a detailed resale certificate before a sale closes, and it gives buyers a right to cancel the contract if the certificate is missing or delayed. It sets a default three‑day cancellation window when the contract doesn’t specify a period, and protects sellers from liability for certificate errors. This aims to give purchasers clearer protection and certainty in condo and cooperative transactions.
