Disclosures & Environmental
Under federal law, a seller of a home built in 1975 must provide the buyer with:
- a.A lead-based paint disclosure and an EPA-approved information pamphlet✓
- b.A radon mitigation certificate
- c.An asbestos removal warranty
- d.No environmental disclosure of any kind
The federal Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act requires sellers of housing built before 1978 to disclose known lead-based paint hazards and give buyers the EPA pamphlet plus a 10-day period to test. The 1975 build date triggers this requirement. It applies nationwide to most pre-1978 residential sales.
