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.

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.
