**** Concerning Square Footage, Buyers/Tenants Should Consider the Following: 1. Be aware that different builders, appraisers and landlords may apply the rules for measurement of a property differently. Never represent that a particular measurement is necessarily accurate. Instead, always qualify any statement about size with terms such as estimated, approximate, appraiser opinion, builder opinion, landlord opinion or assessor opinion. 2. To avoid any and all potential misunderstanding on square footages, we prefer not to quote square footage. However, we understand that a discussion of square footage may play an important role in our day to day business, and many buyers may ask for this figure. With this in mind, when providing appraisal, builder plans or courthouse information as a source for square footage data, any buyers who present an offer must sign an acknowledgment before the offer is accepted by the sellers, such as the following: I (we) acknowledge that information provided to me from other sources, including, but not limited to, square footage estimates from prior appraisals, builder plans, landlord plans or courthouse tax records may be materially inaccurate due to various causes such as alterations to the property or errors in the methods used to calculate the information given. Square footage information provided is for the purpose of marketing, may not be exact and is NOT suitable for loan application, valuation or any other purpose. I (we) acknowledge that the lease being made to lease ______[property address] is based on our personal viewing and opinion of the property and does not rely upon any information except as specifically contained in the Lease Agreement. I (we) acknowledge that the both the Listing and Selling Brokers and/or Associates involved in the transaction do not warrant or make any representation concerning the accuracy of any information from third parties and I/we acknowledge receipt of this information disclosure.
