Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Residential Inspection Ordinance Act . Provides that any ordinance, local law, rule, or regulation calling or providing for the inspection of residential property, whether owned or leased, shall require the consent of the owner or the owner's agent or, if different than the owner, the occupant of the premises before the inspection occurs. Provides that no local ordinance, law, rule, or regulation may require a prospective buyer or prospective tenant to consent to future inspections of real property as a condition of owning or occupying that real property. Prohibits a municipality, county, or other local governmental body, or any official or officer thereof, from refusing to issue real estate transfer stamps in connection with the sale or conveyance of real property on the basis that an inspection of the real property required by ordinance has not been completed or that the issues or problems identified by an inspection have not been corrected or completed. Provides that a local or municipal inspection ordinance may provide that prior to a sale or lease of the real estate an escrow be established in an amount equal to the lower of a reasonable amount required by the municipality to effect the repairs or an amount indicated by a contractor in a proposal to complete the required repairs. Preempts home rule.
