Lead Paint

Daniel H.

Posted

I am looking at purchasing a building built in 1920. I am assuming there is lead paint there. A visual inspection looks okay but there are no lead certs. There are children under 6 living in the building. Building was bought as part of a lot of foreclosed buildings. No leases.

Worried about the potential problems that could arise with lead paint in the building.

Has anyone bought a building with kids living there and you were not sure if there was lead paint or not? What did you do? My other building had lead certs when I bought it.
