The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act
The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act passed in 1992 requires the disclosure of any lead-based paint or chipped paint in any property built before 1978. Every buyer of any residential real property must be notified that such property may present exposure to lead from lead-based paint that may place young children at risk of developing lead poisoning. This federal law requires the sellers of residential real estate to complete a “ Lead Warning Statement ” to provide the potential buyer with any information on lead-based paint hazards from risk assessments or inspections in the seller’s possession and notify the buyer of any known lead-based paint hazards. Sellers must provide a 10-day period for buyers to conduct a paint inspection or risk assessment for lead-based paint or lead-based paint hazards. You can get a lead hazard inspection firm on this site. Why should you be honest in making disclosures about your North Carolina home? Disclosure laws are meant to protect both sides of the home-purchase transaction, putting the buyer on notice and preventing the seller from being held liable for future problems.
