Q: Do I have to remove lead-based paint?

• <div><p>If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it.

You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.</p></div>

Q: Do home inspectors check for lead paint?

• <div><p>No, a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/whats-included-home-inspection-report.htm">standard home inspection includes</a> the basics and does not offer lead paint testing.

If the findings come back positive, you may be able to negotiate with the buyer to cover the cost of the removal.</p></div>
