Lead paint disclosure requirements apply to residential properties built before what year in Nevada?
A1978✓ Correct
B1980
C1988
D1970
Explanation
Federal law (and by extension Nevada) requires sellers and landlords of residential properties built before 1978 to provide buyers and tenants with the EPA lead paint disclosure (Protect Your Family from Lead in Your Home pamphlet) and any known information about lead-based paint on the property. Buyers of pre-1978 homes have a 10-day window to conduct lead paint inspections. This federal requirement applies in all states including Nevada and is tested on both the national and state portions of the real estate exam.
