Lead in property 101
Hello, my name is Tinah, from MA and I am a newbie. I am in need of direction in dealing with possible lead in an old property. During inspection I found an infant of about 6 months in the apartment (have yet to see the lease agreements). Seller has disclosed that they are unaware of what the lead status is in the premises.
The law states "Children under 6 can not live in apartment without a deleading certificate. Landlord can delead or "control" exposure within 90 days with expectation to delead in 2 years.
May I draw on everyone's wisdom by asking - "What would you do if a.) you have the funds to remedy the problem and b.) you are short on funds?"
Thank you.
Tinah
