Selling as-is in Illinois

An "as-is" sale means the seller is selling the home in its current condition and is not making repairs or improvements as part of the sale. A buyer who agrees to purchase as-is is generally accepting the property with whatever condition issues it has, rather than asking the seller to fix them first.

Illinois still has a residential property disclosure law, the Residential Real Property Disclosure Act (765 ILCS 77). Under that law, a seller of residential real estate is generally required to provide a written disclosure of known material defects — such as problems with the roof, foundation, plumbing, or other major systems. The law lists certain exemptions, and it does not require the seller to repair anything; it requires disclosure of what is known.

A cash buyer will typically conduct its own review of the property's condition before making an offer, and the offer is made with the property's condition already factored in. That is why an as-is cash sale can move quickly: the condition is priced in up front.

The Illinois disclosure requirement applies to most transfers of residential real estate by sale, exchange, or installment contract, with certain statutory exemptions. The disclosure is a written statement of the property's known condition, not a warranty — it does not require the seller to put the property into problem-free condition before selling.

The statute is designed to give a buyer notice of what the seller knows, not to force repairs. A seller who has owned a home for many years may not know every condition issue, and the disclosure reflects what the seller is actually aware of. A cash buyer accounts for unknown conditions in its offer.
