New Pasadena No-Smoking Ordinance Disclosure Requirement

Starting January 1st, 2012 disclosure forms must be given to all buyers and tenants of multi-family properties in the City of Pasadena. “Multi-family” includes condos, townhomes, apartments, duplexes, and any other residence where there is more than one unit per lot. In other words, it must be given to all buyers and tenants except those buying or renting single family homes where there is only one home on the lot.

The disclosure is now mandatory for all purchase and rental/lease agreements entered into on and after January 1, 2012. If a property is already in escrow on January 1st, then the disclosure is not mandatory.

Government Affairs Director Laura Olhasso will be providing further explanation at the next caravan meeting, Wednesday, January 11th at the Elk’s Lodge. If you have questions or want to learn more please plan to attend.
