What Hershey’s Mill Sellers Need to Disclose in 2026

Dated: March 11 2026

In the current Pennsylvania real estate market, transparency is your best protection. Because Hershey’s Mill homes were built between 1972 and 2004, there are specific "age-related" items that frequently come up during inspections.

Being proactive about these can save your deal:

  • Stucco & Siding: Even if the HOA maintains the exterior, any known interior moisture issues must be disclosed.

  • HVAC Ages: With the high-efficiency standards of 2026, buyers are looking closely at the age of your heat pump or furnace.

  • Village-Specific Rules: Each of the 25 villages has slightly different rules regarding pets, parking, and rentals.

Providing a "Pre-Listing Package" with these details makes your home much more attractive to cash buyers and serious investors who want a smooth transaction without the drama.
