Environmental Regulations Affecting Real Estate 

Environmental Regulations can deter and lengthen a real estate transaction. Environmental due

diligence in real estate transactions involves the assessment of known, potential, and contingent

environmental liabilities and obligations associated with a parcel of property to be acquired. The

presence of hazardous building materials, including asbestos, radon and lead-based paints, in

onsite structures. Known or potential soil or groundwater contamination beneath the property

from current and historic uses. A new property owner could run into costly environmental issues

if due diligence is not practiced while purchasing the property.

Mold and Real Estate Transactions

During the home inspection process often mold issues arise and the real estate agents need to know how to respond.
