Was the “Protect Your Family From Lead In Your Home” pamphlet provided by the landlord/property manager/seller on or before the date the rental or sales contract became effective?
Check the box(es) below if the rental or sales contract included a warning statement about potential lead hazards that stated:
Did the rental or sales contract indicate information about lead-based paint found at the property existed?
Please provide any additional details (e.g., was the pamphlet not provided, was the warning statement absent or incomplete, was information shared about lead-based paint at the property incomplete, etc.)
