It's a good idea to though, because if you have a flat wall that has lead paint on it, and it's not cracked or peeling, it's legal to leave it in place.

It's got peel-and-stick 12" square vinyl tile right now, but I'm planning on taking that up soon.

I know they want the EPA of the face of the earth, not sure I want to wear a gas mask or need to buy water.

Once they start peeling back the metaphorical (and literal) layers you don't know what you're going to find.

I'll keep my eyes peeled for you and let you know if I come across anything that fits your criteria.

My local PHA uses the following list to prep landlords for the general expectation of the inspection: Windows and Doors The windows must not be damaged or missingAll ground floor windows must have locksAll doors leading outside must have locks and deadboltsFlooring, Ceilings and Walls The flooring, walls and ceilings must not have any serious defects such as serious bulging, sagging, large cracks, loose surface or other major damagesThe flooring must not have any serious damages and cracks that will cause someone to trip and fall (peeling/lifting linoleum is often what flunks on this point)The ceiling and roof must not leak.

Peel and stick the items. 5 stars!

Is it peeling or coming off the walls in any way?

@Jay Hinrichs great of you to peel back the curtain on behavior like this.

On the 2nd property, I used a 5% down owner occupied financing bc the house didnt qualify for FHA financing (1954 house with peeling paint, furnace didnt work and it didnt have a stove).
