l know we all involved in real estate investing locally here in Toledo, Oh are tired of all the lead law talk, but I actually see opportunity in this new "lead safe" ordinance, and would like to know other investors on here take on the favorable and the unfavorable factors to consider with the new or ordinance?

I've been involved with the lead issue since the beginning attending and speaking out at all the city council meetings and town hall meetings. I've written about it on BP in details and recently discussed it with one of the Ohio Health Directors in Columbus.  The more I learn about it the more I find out how local politics plays a huge role in forcing such a law to get elected. Here is an excellent example of a failed city council and local politicians in the name of helping the poor!!!

The lead issue is the new trend for all local politicians to cash in these days to get elected. This is not just a Toledo issue but soon it will spread to the rest of NW Ohio. The problem is that every city will have it's own ordinance to follow.  As a matter of fact, the Toledo ordinance doesn't follow the state law testing lead. So the state can't certify inspectors until the city council finishes the details of the new ordinance.  

This whole lead thing is a big joke mate

F@#%ing politics

Never for the people's benefit and always hidden agenda's
