Buyer Notification Certificates

Buyer Notification Certificates

A Buyer Notification Certificate is required when there is an agreement of sale between two parties, unless the property is being sold from parent to child or from spouse to spouse, or is in a will, or if the property is scheduled for demolition with an active demolition permit.  It is required in order to prevent undue hardships and losses imposed on purchasers by owners who have failed to reveal the illegal use or condition of the property being conveyed or who have made misrepresentations. It also allows the City of Lebanon to collect any monies that are owed when a property is sold.
