• Idaho seller disclosure or exemption evidence. For covered residential transfers under Idaho Code 55-2504, including non-owner-occupied rental property, seller shall deliver a signed and dated completed 55-2508 form, or a compliant alternative with all 55-2506 information and 55-2507 mandatory statements, within ten days after acceptance of buyer’s offer. Buyer acknowledges by signing and dating a copy and delivering it back. Unknown/not-available answers remain available. The form is a knowledge disclosure, not a warranty or substitute for inspections. A specific 55-2505 exemption must be identified and documented; an as-is provision alone is not an exemption. The NavStreet receipt selection does not sign the separate statutory form.
• Idaho property-specific records and scope review. Provide a seller-signed scope and property-record review covering water/well and irrigation rights, septic permits and known problems, annexation/city-service notices, environmental hazards, access, existing leases and local transfer requirements. Identify applicable records or signed nonapplicability explanations. This is a NavStreet preparation packet, not a state-mandated omnibus form. NavStreet collects the applicable statutory condition disclosure or supported exemption before offers; the legal delivery deadline under Idaho Code 55-2509 is unchanged. New construction, subdivisions/developer sales, tribal trust/leasehold interests and assignment/wholesale transactions are outside this agreement.
• Idaho association records. Provide a seller-signed scope and property-record review covering water/well and irrigation rights, septic permits and known problems, annexation/city-service notices, environmental hazards, access, existing leases and local transfer requirements. Identify applicable records or signed nonapplicability explanations. This is a NavStreet preparation packet, not a state-mandated omnibus form. NavStreet collects the applicable statutory condition disclosure or supported exemption before offers; the legal delivery deadline under Idaho Code 55-2509 is unchanged.

Association governing documents, dues, transfer fees, special assessments and restrictions shall be provided by the negotiated document date or sufficiently before closing for review. No statewide association rescission period is created here. Condominium/developer sales require a separate workflow.
