Lead based paint

My addendum here says "Seller warrants that they have no knowledge of any lead based paint hazards on the property"

This is a required disclosure and it requires you to warrant that you don't know of any lead based paint on the property. What if the sellers know full well that there is lead based paint on the house? How are they supposed to sign that required form?

Read your first post.

"no knowledge of any lead based paint hazards on the property."

If the seller hasn't had it tested, and if a qualified LBP inspector hasn't found a hazard, Joe Homeowner has no knowledge.
