Maddy summaryThis bill requires sellers to provide lead-based paint test reports to buyers before selling residential properties built before 1978. It directly affects home sellers, buyers, and real estate agents in New York for properties constructed prior to 1978, which are most likely to contain lead paint. The key mechanism mandates a one-time inspection and disclosure of test results before title transfer, with reports added to a state registry for future buyers. This complements existing laws by standardizing disclosure across all residential sales, not just rentals, ensuring buyers receive clear information about potential lead hazards. The law does not replace buyer due diligence or existing seller responsibilities.
