Buying a lead painted house

Hey all,

I am looking to purchase a triplex that looks promising, but there's a catch.

The seller disclosed that there are a lot of lead painted parts.

From reading online, the national average of lead removal is $10K.


I thought of chasing the deal, but renegotiating the price down to reflect this amount of work (there's also a need to re-roof).

What are your thoughts on that? Do you have past experience with lead? 

Thanks for any help!
