Reveal to new owners, your home was once robbed?

Anonymous
Are you obligated? Happened over 5 years ago.

No; especially if you are anywhere in DC or very close by.

Why?

Why on earth would you reveal that?

If you did take steps in response like installing security measures/an alarm system, it would be perfectly fine to point those out -- you don't need to say "it was because we were robbed."

If you live in dc it's normal to be robbed every year or so. It might be a selling point that your area is an anomaly and is on a 5 year robbing cycle.

Moron: this a question to be answered by your realtor and/or lawyer.

When we bought our house, between the security system and hundreds of keys for the crazy number of locks they had in the house, it was obvious. We removed most of the locks. FWIW, the rash of thefts (as we later learned from neighbors) had happened in the 70s.
