INDIANA SALES DISCLOSURE FORM INSTRUCTIONS
Page 1
INSTRUCTIONS
Indiana law requires a sales disclosure form (SDF) to be reviewed for completeness by the county assessor before being forwarded to the county
auditor and must be completed whenever a conveyance document (see definition below) is filed. The county auditor may not accept a conveyance if
(1) the sales disclosure form is not included with the conveyance document; or (2) the sales disclosure form is incomplete and/or is not stamped by
the county assessor. A separate SDF is required for each parcel conveyed, regardless of whether more than one (1) parcel is conveyed under a
single conveyance document. However, only one (1) SDF is required if there is a single conveyance document that conveys two (2) or more
contiguous parcels located entirely within a single taxing district. A person filing a sales disclosure form marked only with sales conditions subject
to a disclosure filing fee shall pay a fee of ten dollars ($10.00) to the county auditor.
Definitions
Conveyance Document ‐ means any transfer of a real property interest for valuable consideration to include any document, deed, contract of sale,
agreement, judgment, lease that includes the fee simple estate and is for a period in excess of ninety (90) years, quitclaim deed serving as a source
of title, document presented for recording that purports to transfer a real property interest for valuable consideration. Filers are required to
disclose, but are not subject to a fee when filing the following: documents for compulsory transactions as a result of foreclosure or express threat of
foreclosure, divorce, court order, judgment, condemnation, or probate; documents involving the partition of land between tenants in common, joint
tenants, or tenants by the entirety; transfer to a charity, not‐for‐profit organization, or government; or easements or right‐of‐way grants. Filers
should note that the following items do NOT require a sales disclosure form be prepared: security interest documents such as mortgages or trust
deeds; leases less than 90 years; agreements and other documents for mergers, consolidations, and incorporations involving solely non‐listed stock;
quitclaim deeds not serving as a source of title. Additionally a sales disclosure form is not required for a transfer for no consideration or a gift, or
when rerecording to correct prior recorded document.
Personal property – means items that are not attached (built‐in or affixed) to the real estate (land and buildings). This might include items such as
washers, dryers, window treatments, stoves and refrigerators. Other items considered personal property are boats and other vehicles, inventories
(livestock, goods in process or for trade, or agricultural commodities) and machinery used in farming or manufacturing.

deduction.

the date they first lose their eligibility. Failure to do so may result in substantial financial penalties, including the repayment of up to
three years of unpaid taxes and a 10% penalty on taxes owed.

on file at the county auditor. The buyer(s) must identify all that apply to the property included on the sales disclosure. In addition, these deductions

Would you like to receive tax statements for this property via e‐mail? Under HEA 1344‐2009, a county may elect to offer taxpayers the option
to receive property tax bills electronically. In these counties a property owner may file with either the county treasurer or county auditor to
receive electronic statements. If a taxpayer elects to receive electronic statements, the choice remains in effect until the taxpayer changes e‐
mail addresses, or requests otherwise. Only one electronic statement can be sent per property; therefore, the person or entity exercising the
option must designate a single individual to receive the statement. If an individual requests electronic statements in a county that does not
offer them, the e‐mail address will be held until such time as the county chooses to adopt the option. If a taxpayer chooses to change this
preference, State Form 53954 (Authorization for Receipt of Electronic Property Tax Statements) must be filed.
You may also be eligible for other credits or deductions for which separate application may be required.
The buyer/grantee, seller/grantor or their representatives must sign one (1) sales disclosure form, or if the parties do not agree on the information
to be included on the completed form, each party must sign and file a separate form. For conveyance transactions that involve more than two (2)
parties, it is sufficient for one (1) transferor and one (1) transferee to sign the SDF. If anyone other than the buyer/seller or an attorney of the
buyer/seller is signing the form, a properly executed Power of Attorney must be completed and attached. A person who knowingly and
intentionally falsifies value of transferred real property, or omits or falsifies any information required to be provided in the sales disclosure form
commits a Class C felony.
PART 2 – COUNTY ASSESSOR

assessor is responsible for verifying the following information specific to each parcel included in the sales disclosure form:

assessor verify each sale within 30 days of receipt of the SDF, as the assessor may find that the buyer and/or seller may not be located at the
address provided on the form.
Sales disclosure forms provided in response to public records requests may not include telephone numbers.
