Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the real property law, in relation to requiring the disclosure of lead-based paint test reports in real estate transactions
AI Summary
This bill requires the disclosure of lead-based paint test reports in real estate transactions. Specifically, it amends the Real Property Law to mandate that sellers of residential real property provide buyers with a certificate indicating the property has been tested for lead-based paint, and the report of such test, prior to signing a binding contract of sale. The bill also requires landlords to provide tenants with copies of any lead-based paint test reports for the rental property. The purpose of the bill is to increase awareness of potential lead hazards and prevent lead poisoning, especially in older homes where lead-based paint is more likely to be present.
