What must be provided to buyers according to Title X before the purchase of target housing?

Before the purchase of target housing, it is required that buyers receive a "Protect Your Family from Lead" pamphlet as mandated by Title X. This regulation, often associated with the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act, aims to educate prospective buyers on the dangers of lead exposure, particularly in homes built before 1978, when the use of lead-based paint in residential properties was banned.

Providing this pamphlet is essential because it contains important information about lead poisoning, the sources and hazards of lead in the home, and ways to minimize or eliminate lead exposure. This proactive measure ensures that buyers are fully informed about the potential risks associated with lead-based paint in such homes, allowing them to make an educated decision regarding their purchase.

Other materials or documents, such as lists of available inspections, outlines of potential costs, or inspection reports, while potentially useful, do not meet the specific requirement set by Title X for pre-purchase disclosures. The primary focus of the legislation is on awareness and education, making the pamphlet a critical component in protecting public health.
