What must sellers disclose about properties built before 1978?

  1. The precise construction date

  2. The presence of asbestos

  3. The presence of lead paint, if known

  4. The names of all previous owners

The correct answer is: The presence of lead paint, if known

Properties built before 1978 are subject to the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act, which requires sellers to disclose any known presence of lead paint in the property. This is important information for potential buyers to have as exposure to lead can be harmful, especially to children. Option A is incorrect because it is not necessary for sellers to disclose the precise construction date. Option B is incorrect because while the presence of asbestos is also important to know, it is not required to be disclosed specifically for properties built before 1978. Option D is incorrect because it is not necessary for sellers to disclose the names of all previous owners, unless they have lived in the property themselves and may have information about the presence of lead paint.
