As a residential rental landlord of pre-1978 built housing, one must be cognizant of some fundamental facts about lead and lead-based paint. First, lead (Pb) is virtually everywhere in civilized and industrial society. The reason for that is that lead has been mined and used by all major societies since at least 4,000 B.C. --- over 6,000 years. Further, lead lasts, and lasts, and lasts. It is a malleable, very utilitarian, heavy metal (Atomic Number 82) that does not dissolve in water, nor decay, nor dissipate, nor burn. It's here to stay.
Lead is in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food and drink compounds we ingest, dust, soil, cooking utensils, pipes and other plumbing fixtures, and many other products we use and/or consume.
The best defenses to rental property lead paint poisoning claims are good MAINTENANCE of the rental property, quick response to allegations of ILLNESSES by tenants, legally-compliant NOTICE to tenants, and complete DOCUMENTATION of the tenant and the rental property in tenant files [ "MIND"]. Lead is not going away anytime soon. Prepare for tenant complaints.
