Explanation
Indoor air quality concerns in residential properties include radon (from soil), carbon monoxide (from fuel-burning appliances), VOCs (from paints, adhesives, carpets, and building materials), mold and biological pollutants, lead dust, asbestos fibers, and secondhand smoke. Proximity to a city park does not affect indoor air quality (and is generally considered a benefit). Illinois real estate professionals should be aware of common indoor environmental hazards.
