Lead paint

Hi,

I bought this house built in 1948 and don't remember if the seller provided the lead paint disclosure. So I don't know if there is lead paint or not.

The house has tenant now what should I do now if tenant ask for lead paint disclosure?

Not much chance of it not having lead paint, unless it was properly removed, which is also not likely. Either way you need to provide the disclosure info based on what you do know ... When it was built. You can say that you don't know on the disclosure. I would not wait for them to ask, though I am not sure what the best way to handle it would be. Personally, I would ask my lawyer.
