AI Summary

This bill, known as the Oklahoma Homeowner Repair Contract Protection Act, establishes new protections for homeowners entering into home repair contracts. It defines a "home solicitation contract" as one where a contractor or their representative personally solicits the sale of home repair services at the buyer's residence, and the buyer agrees to the terms there, excluding pre-existing contracts or sales initiated at a contractor's established business location. Crucially, the act grants homeowners a five-day period, until midnight of the fifth calendar day after signing, during which they can cancel a home solicitation contract. To cancel, the homeowner must provide written notice via certified mail to the contractor, and this cancellation is considered effective when the notice is properly mailed. The bill also clarifies that this right to cancel does not prevent homeowners from advertising, responding to their own initiated contact with a contractor, or having services performed when they directly contact the property owner. This new law will take effect on November 1, 2026.
