Depending on where you are in Europe, you may have been supposed to declare that. Basically, since people feel a bit icky about buying or renting a suicide house there is an obligation to disclose it, because anything which you are aware of which may effect the value you have a duty to disclose. It is to stop people paying more than they would have been prepared to if they knew that fact. That and ghosts, no one should be on the hook for a Ghostbusters call out fee.

Ghosts? Come on, I know it's Halloween tonight but... seriously?
I'd be way more worried about toxic chemicals, asbetos, radiation and infectious diseases. Those are contagious causes of death; ghosts are not.

Dumbass.

???

do you like actually believe in ghosts, little anon?

I live in California and death disclosure laws exist here as well: not only are you required to disclose if a person died in a house, but also how they died (natural causes, homicide, suicide; I currently own and reside in a house in which a natural cause death happened). And since there are many groups and cultures of folks living here who do believe in ghosts or spirits, as well as the notion that how a person dies can effect whether or not they can journey into the afterlife happy or not, this seriously effects the housing market.

sa

Recently a house in San Francisco sold for nearly 2 million dollars, the house had been occupied by a woman who was a hoarder and suffered from mental illness. She died in the house and wasn't discovered for at least five years. She apparently died of natural causes, but again, there were many people who were put off by the notion of a mummified body in the house for years (and the mess from hoarding), plus her spirit may not have gone so gently into the night.

Any house that's old enough probably had someone die in it, though, because more people used to die at home rather than in places like hospitals, nursing homes, and hospices. There are probably a lot of houses for which this information has been lost, so while the owners can say they aren't aware of anyone having died there, they have no way to know if no one really did.

Nope: since Reed vs. King, a seller/landlord only has to disclose an unnatural death if it happened within the past 3 years...OR if the prospective buyer or tenant asks.

I work in a building with no thirteenth floor. Enough people take this nonsense seriously.

...does it not occur to them that the fourteenth floor is really the thirteenth?

On the other hand, in the US most states (Texas, Virginia, New York and California are the exceptions) have laws stating that a landlord or seller is not obliged to disclose a non-material stigma. If people feel icky about buying or renting a suicide house, the onus is on them to ask the landlord or seller if an event like that has occurred in the house.

I suspect that most people who ~feel icky just want an excuse to knock the price down, and that's shitty.
