maine real estate law: New Maine Lead Paint Law
- 06/19/07 09:46 AM
It seems like a new disclosure is added every few months or so up here in Maine: our one page lead based paint disclosure turned intoa more complicate 3 page form a couple of years back, then came the arsenic in well water and the arsenic in treated wood disclosures, then the energy disclosure for multi units.
