Sellers of residential real property in Hawaiʻi must disclose facts that would affect their property’s value to a reasonable person. But what if a buyer agrees to purchase a property "as is"?

Secrets and Lies is a special two-part series featuring Jason E. Korta, staff attorney for Hawaii REALTORS(R), and Christopher St. Sure, a partner at Goodsill Anderson Quinn & Stifel. It answers questions like, "What defects or conditions of a property in Hawaii can a buyer agree to accept without disclosure?" and "Can an as is agreement protect a seller from a claim that they misrepresented, concealed, or failed to disclose a material fact?".
