HB 1860 -- Energy Efficiency Ratings of Residential Homes

Sponsor:  Baker (25)

This bill requires a seller as part of a newly constructed
residential home sales transaction occurring on or after
August 28, 2008, to disclose its energy efficiency rating under
the energy star rating system to the purchasers at least one week
before completion of the sale.  If a seller fails to disclose the
rating on time, the purchaser may withhold $500 from the purchase
price; or if full payment has already been made, he or she may
pursue legal action for the $500 refund and other costs and
attorney fees.
