Under the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act (Title X), landlords are required to inform prospective tenants of any known lead-based paint or related hazards in a property before a lease or rental agreement is signed. Both the landlord and tenant must sign an EPA-approved disclosure form confirming that this information has been shared. Property owners are then required to retain this signed disclosure for a period of three years.
