FORM UC-36 (REV. 09-2026)UCDP MANDATE: 2026-11-02
UADCHECKPre-submission inspection of UAD 3.6 packages

UAD1197

FATAL

Official message text · Appendix H-1: UAD Compliance Rules — URAR, v1.5

The amount related to the transfer of ownership of real property (typically the sale price) must be greater than or equal to $0.

Fatal — a single unresolved Fatal makes the entire submission come back NOT SUCCESSFUL (UCDP Hard Stop 401).

What triggers UAD1197

The published rule logic, verbatim:

If OwnershipTransferTransactionAmount < 0 in a given instance of SALES_HISTORY

  • Checked for the Subject property.
  • Minimum allowed value: 0.
  • • Bound to MISMO data point OwnershipTransferTransactionAmount (%PV%) at ../VALUATION_ANALYSIS/PROPERTIES/PROPERTY/SALES_HISTORIES/SALES_HISTORY/

How to fix it

On the URAR, this lives at: Prior Sale and Transfer History → Subject Transfer History → Amount (%PV%). Complete or correct that field in your form software, regenerate the package, and re-check before submission.

Because this is a Fatal edit, do not submit until it is resolved — one Fatal bounces the whole package.

The free UADCheck inspection evaluates UAD1197 automatically — attach your package and see in seconds whether it fires.
