Buying or selling a property should be an exciting experience.

Wisconsin Real Estate Regulations

Wisconsin real estate law applies to residential, commercial, and agricultural properties, and these laws and regulations govern real estate transactions to promote clarity and fairness in property dealings. Any oversight during a transaction could result in costly consequences.

In Wisconsin, real estate transactions must be documented in writing under the state’s statute of frauds. Additionally, the law requires sellers to provide potential buyers with a Real Estate Condition Report that discloses any known defects or issues with the property. Failure to comply with these disclosure laws can expose sellers to future liability.

The state also employs strict zoning and land use laws for each municipality to regulate how properties can be used, modified, or developed, and how you can obtain the necessary permits or variances for development projects.

Furthermore, landlords and tenants are subject to specific provisions under the Wisconsin Administrative Code, including security deposit rules, eviction processes, and timely repair obligations. Understanding how these laws apply can help both landlords and tenants exercise their rights and manage real estate transactions or disputes more effectively.

At SB Law, our attorneys are well-versed in all aspects of Wisconsin real estate law and are dedicated to staying up-to-date with any changes or updates that may affect our clients. Whether you are exploring your options as a buyer, looking to sell a property, or require assistance managing an existing property, contact our firm today for experienced guidance.
