The Kansas Real Estate Commission forms index checked for this page does not list a general consumer residential purchase-agreement blank. If a Kansas real estate licensee is involved, use the brokerage’s current authorized purchase agreement and addenda, and confirm whom each licensee represents. If you are buying or selling without a licensee, have a Kansas real-estate attorney prepare or review the written agreement before anyone signs. Every residential sales contract must include Kansas’s statutory offender-registry and radon language. Choose your situation:
Ask which party each licensee represents, then obtain the current purchase agreement and addenda authorized by the responsible brokerage. Confirm the residential contract includes the required offender-registry and radon language, the brokerage-relationship disclosures under K.S.A. 58-30,110, and any special-assessment or federal lead materials that apply.
See the licensee-assisted stepsThe KREC forms index checked for this page does not list a general FSBO purchase-agreement blank. Have a Kansas real-estate attorney prepare or review the written agreement before either party signs. Residential sales contracts still must include the statutory offender-registry and radon language, and sellers must disclose known elevated radon information. Kansas does not impose one statewide full owner property-condition form on every sale, but inaccurate or incomplete statements and silence about known material latent defects can still create legal risk.
See the FSBO document stepsUnder K.S.A. 58-3078 and 58-3078a, each contract for the sale of residential real estate must contain specified statutory language about offender registration information and indoor radon. Sellers must also disclose information known to them showing elevated radon concentrations. When licensees are involved, K.S.A. 58-30,110 also requires brokerage-relationship disclosures and brochure acknowledgments in the contract path. KREC publishes a free Required Statutory Disclosures Addendum that can help capture required notices—it is an addendum, not a purchase agreement. Confirm your contract uses the current statutory text.

PublicLegal provides independent self-help guidance and links to official Kansas sources. We do not sell a Kansas purchase agreement or provide legal advice.
Do not assume you can cancel after signing. The Kansas statutes summarized on this page do not create a general cancel-for-any-reason period for an ordinary home purchase. Put inspection, financing, appraisal, title, association-document, earnest-money, and cancellation rights in the signed purchase agreement itself. For most housing built before 1978, federal lead disclosures and the buyer’s inspection opportunity must be handled before the buyer signs. If the property is subject to a qualifying special assessment or improvement district, K.S.A. 12-6a20 requires seller disclosure, a good-faith estimate when the amount is unknown, and the buyer’s written acknowledgment.
Editorial summary based on K.S.A. 58-3078 (required residential sales-contract language regarding registration of persons convicted of certain crimes); K.S.A. 58-3078a (required radon notice language in residential sales contracts and seller disclosure of known elevated radon information); K.S.A. 58-30,106 (BRRETA minimum duties of a seller’s or landlord’s agent, including disclosure to customers of adverse material facts actually known); K.S.A. 33-106 (writing requirement for land-sale contracts); Kansas Real Estate Commission public forms including the Required Statutory Disclosures Addendum and brokerage-relationships brochure; Kansas REALTORS® member forms access; and EPA lead materials. Confirm the current statute text before use. PublicLegal does not sell a Kansas purchase-agreement substitute on this page.
The purchase agreement sets price, deposit, financing, inspection, title, closing, possession, default, and cancellation obligations. Statutory contract notices about offender registration and radon are required text inside residential sales contracts. BRRETA governs licensee duties. The deed conveys title later at closing. None of these documents replaces the others.
KREC publishes free statutory-disclosure and brokerage-relationship materials. It does not currently list a general consumer residential purchase-agreement blank. Brokered deals use agreements the brokerage is authorized to provide. FSBO parties should use Kansas counsel for contract preparation or review.
There is no single statewide full seller property-condition report statute identified for every owner-seller. Industry seller-disclosure addenda used by many brokerages are not free public government purchase blanks.
The Kansas Real Estate Commission forms index checked for this page includes BRRETA and agency-relationship forms, a brokerage-relationships disclosure brochure, and a Required Statutory Disclosures Addendum. It does not list a general consumer residential purchase-agreement blank. Obtain the current purchase agreement and addenda the responsible brokerage is authorized to use. Kansas REALTORS® and local-board purchase forms are typically accessed through member or vendor platforms—not free public government blanks. PublicLegal does not host, sell, or adapt those association forms.
Under K.S.A. 58-30,110, when licensees are involved the contract path must address brokerage-relationship disclosures and brochure-receipt acknowledgments. Seller’s agents, buyer’s agents, and transaction brokers have different duties under K.S.A. 58-30,106, 58-30,107, and 58-30,113. A seller’s agent must disclose to any customer all adverse material facts actually known, including environmental hazards required by law to be disclosed, the physical condition of the property, material defects in the property or title, and any material limitation on the client’s ability to perform under the contract. Licensees generally have no duty to conduct an independent inspection for a customer, but they must not ignore known contradictions or omissions in third-party reports.
Confirm the residential contract includes the K.S.A. 58-3078 offender-registry language and the K.S.A. 58-3078a radon notice, and calendar special-assessment, association, and federal lead tracks that apply. PublicLegal does not sell a Kansas association lookalike.
K.S.A. 33-106 generally provides that no action shall be brought on a contract for the sale of lands, tenements, or hereditaments, or any interest in or concerning them, unless the agreement or a memorandum is in writing and signed by the party to be charged, or by a person lawfully authorized in writing. It does not prescribe a particular government form. Have a Kansas real-estate attorney prepare or review a fully executed written agreement before anyone signs—counsel is strongly recommended, not described here as a universal closing mandate.
Selling without a broker does not remove K.S.A. 58-3078 or 58-3078a. Residential sales contracts still must contain the required offender-registry and radon language, and sellers must disclose known elevated radon information. BRRETA’s customer-disclosure duties apply to licensees. Kansas does not appear to require one statewide full property-condition form from every owner-seller, but inaccurate or incomplete statements and silence about known material latent defects outside the buyer’s reasonable reach can still create legal risk.
A title or settlement provider may handle closing logistics but is not automatically either party’s personal lawyer. PublicLegal does not sell a Kansas purchase-agreement substitute on this page.
K.S.A. 58-3078 requires that, on and after July 1, 2008, each contract for the sale of residential real estate contain specified language notifying buyers that Kansas law requires persons convicted of certain crimes, including certain sexually violent crimes, to register with the sheriff of the county in which they reside, and directing buyers who want registrant information to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation website or the local sheriff’s office.
K.S.A. 58-3078a requires that, on and after July 1, 2009, each contract for the sale of residential real property contain the statutory radon notice language. That notice states that the property may present exposure to dangerous concentrations of indoor radon gas, that radon is a class-A human carcinogen and a leading cause of lung cancer, that Kansas law requires sellers to disclose any information known to the seller that shows elevated concentrations of radon gas, and that the Kansas Department of Health and Environment recommends indoor radon testing by a radon measurement technician before purchase or occupancy.
Separately, under K.S.A. 58-30,106, a seller’s or landlord’s agent must disclose to any customer all adverse material facts actually known by the licensee, including environmental hazards required by law to be disclosed, the physical condition of the property, material defects in the property, material defects in the title, and any material limitation on the client’s ability to perform under the contract. That BRRETA duty is a licensee obligation based on actual knowledge—it is not the same as a universal FSBO full property-condition form statute.
KREC’s free Required Statutory Disclosures Addendum can help collect required contract notices and brokerage-relationship acknowledgments when licensees are involved. It is an addendum—not a purchase agreement. Confirm your contract uses the current statutory text. Federal lead disclosures still apply to most housing built before 1978. Industry seller-condition addenda are not warranties and are not substitutes for inspections.
Key points to keep straight:
Coverage and timing questions turn on the exact statute text and your facts. When in doubt, ask Kansas counsel.
We do not sell a Kansas purchase-contract substitute. When you need a related PublicLegal product, these are optional and stage-specific—not replacements for the purchase agreement.
Use this as a practical sequence—not a substitute for advice on your facts.
Depending on the property and transaction, parties may also need to address:
Local practices differ across Kansas markets. Use professionals and primary sources for your address.
The purchase agreement creates the sale obligations. The deed transfers title at closing and recording. Do not treat a deed form as a substitute for the purchase contract or required statutory notices.
This page does not claim that a Kansas attorney must personally conduct every ordinary residential closing. Title companies commonly handle Kansas residential closings. Unrepresented parties should obtain legal advice before signing the purchase agreement, especially where seller financing, title defects, estates, trusts, boundaries, or association disputes are involved.
PublicLegal maintains a live Kansas deeds hub plus warranty and quitclaim product pages. Choose the deed type that matches the title warranties the parties agreed to convey. A warranty deed is a common arm’s-length sale option when full warranties are intended; a quitclaim deed is for limited-purpose transfers—not a substitute for the purchase agreement or the ordinary negotiated sale default.
Independently verify wire instructions. Real-estate wire fraud is common.
That keeps this page honest: orientation and primary-source links, not a substitute for authorized brokerage forms or Kansas legal advice.
KREC’s public forms inventory reviewed for this page does not list a general consumer residential purchase agreement. It does publish BRRETA materials and a Required Statutory Disclosures Addendum. PublicLegal does not sell a Kansas REALTORS® lookalike.

Residential contracts must include offender-registry and radon language, and sellers must disclose known elevated radon information.
No. Kansas REALTORS® forms are member materials accessed through authorized platforms. Do not treat random internet blanks as authorized public forms.
Under K.S.A. 58-3078a, the contract must contain the statutory radon notice language, and sellers must disclose any information known to them that shows elevated radon concentrations. KDHE recommends professional testing.
No. Kansas does not provide a general cooling-off period for an ordinary residential purchase from the statutes summarized on this page. Put cancellation and contingency rights in the signed contract.
This page does not claim a statewide statute requires an attorney at every ordinary residential closing. Title companies commonly handle closings. Unrepresented parties and complex deals should still use Kansas counsel for the purchase agreement.
No. The purchase agreement creates the obligation to buy and sell. Title typically transfers later by deed at closing. Start from the Kansas deeds hub and use the warranty deed product for an ordinary sale conveyance path.
