Requires the disclosure of lead-based paint test reports in real estate transactions
This bill, titled the Lead-Based Paint Right to Know Act, requires real estate agents in New York to disclose lead-based paint test reports during residential property transactions. It mandates that sellers or their agents provide inspection results for homes built before 1978, ensuring buyers have access to information about potential lead hazards before purchasing. The legislation also requires these specific inspection reports to be added to a state health registry, making lead data available to future renters and buyers. By standardizing this disclosure process, the bill aims to prevent lead poisoning and protect public health without altering existing responsibilities for property condition or liability.
