Lead hazards aren’t just a concern for homeowners—they’re also a big deal for real estate professionals. If you're listing a home built before 1978 or guiding buyers through disclosures, understanding the risks of lead exposure isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. Federal laws require specific disclosures and safety measures and skipping them can lead to hefty fines and legal trouble.

This course helps you recognize where lead hazards lurk, stay on top of your legal responsibilities, and follow safe practices help protect you, your clients, and your transactions. But beyond compliance, having a strong grasp of lead safety makes you a trusted advisor. When clients see that you take their health and safety seriously, it strengthens your reputation and sets you apart as a knowledgeable, reliable real estate professional. Ultimately, keeping people safe, reducing risk, and staying compliant aren’t just obligations—they’re smart business moves supporting long-term success.

Course highlights include:

  • Common sources of lead in residential properties
  • Health risks of lead exposure
  • Community-based approaches to lead hazard prevention
  • Review of federal lead disclosure laws
  • Compliance with lead disclosure laws
  • Consequences of non-compliance with disclosure requirements
  • Mitigating lead hazards
  • Lead-safe work practices for renovations and repairs
  • EPA’s Renovation, Repair, and Painting Program
  • Preventing lead hazards long-term
