TREC 61-0

The seller's disclosure, researched line by line.

A Texas seller's disclosure notice asks about the water supply and what the seller knows about wells on the property. SiteReport gathers the public evidence behind those lines and marks each for what it is. It does not fill the form in.

What the research pack gathers.

Included in every Water Due Diligence Report.

  • Known wells on or near the parcel

    Every well on public record inside the parcel boundary and within the search radius, with distance, depth, and the date it was filed.

  • Well record identifiers

    The state's record number for each well, so the seller, the title company or a driller can look up the same filing.

  • Groundwater district context

    Which district the property sits in, and the questions its rules raise: spacing, permits, production.

  • Public records that may relate to groundwater rights

    Where the record carries a sign of a severed right, a lease or an agreement, the report names the record and marks the line for title review. It draws no conclusion.

  • Shared-well indicators

    A well on record near a boundary, or filed under a neighbour's address, is flagged as a possible shared supply when the evidence supports the question. Only when it does.

  • Unknowns and unresolved questions

    Everything the record cannot answer, listed as questions for the seller and for title, rather than left out.

How each line is marked.

The status is always printed. Colour is secondary.

  • Verified

    A public record states this.

  • Inferred

    Estimated from the records around the property, with its uncertainty stated.

  • Not found

    The sources consulted hold no record of this.

  • Confirmation required

    Only the seller can confirm this.

  • Title or legal review

    A title company or attorney should confirm this.

  • Insufficient evidence

    The record is too thin to say.

What it will not do.

A research aid for the disclosure workflow, and nothing more.

  • Sign or complete a disclosure

    The notice is the seller's document. The pack sits beside it.

  • State the seller's knowledge

    What a seller knows is marked as a question for the seller, never as a fact.

  • Decide ownership or severance of rights

    Without authoritative legal evidence, a rights question is marked for title or legal review and left there.

  • Give legal advice

    A report organises public records. An attorney advises.

Questions about the notice.

Does this complete the TREC 61-0 notice?
No. The notice is the seller's statement of what the seller knows, and no third party can make it on their behalf. The research pack sits beside the form: it gathers the public evidence behind the water questions, marks each line for what the record supports, and leaves the answering and the signing where they belong.
Is any of this legal advice?
No. A report organises public records and says which is which. Where the record touches ownership, severance of groundwater rights, a shared well or an easement, the line is marked for title or legal review and the report stops there rather than drawing the conclusion. An attorney advises; this does the reading first.
What does a line marked for the seller actually mean?
That the public record cannot answer it and only the seller can. Whether a well is still in use, how old it is, what condition the casing is in, what a previous owner was told: none of that is filed anywhere. Marking it is more useful than omitting it, because it turns a silence into a question you can put in writing before the option period runs out.
The property has a well, but the pack says none is on record. Which is right?
Both, and the report says so in those words. Not found means the sources consulted hold no filing, not that no well exists. Wells predating the filing requirement, and wells nobody filed, are common on Texas land. A well on the ground and nothing in the record is itself worth knowing, and it belongs in the conversation with the seller.
Can I send the pack to the title company?
Yes. Every report has a share link that opens without an account and can be revoked or set to expire, and a PDF for the file. Each line carries the record it came from and the date it was retrieved, so a title officer can pull the same filing rather than take the report's word for it.
Is the research pack sold on its own?
No, it comes inside every Water Due Diligence Report, $99 once or 1 credit on a plan. Separating it would suggest the disclosure lines can be researched apart from the wells, the aquifer and the district context they depend on, and they cannot.
