I own rental property. Do I have to be in compliance with all components of the Law by November 1, 2005, including making my units safe from lead hazards?
The law requires you to take a three-hour Lead Hazard Awareness Class approved by the Housing Resources Commission before November 1, 2005. HOWEVER, as of November 1, 2005, your insurance carrier may ask for proof of compliance with the Law. Please contact your insurer or insurance agent directly for assistance. As of November 1, 2005 you will no longer be protected by the ?innocent owner? provision, which means that now property owners can be held responsible for any cases of lead poisoning that occur on their property.
