Landlords must tell tenants about known lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards before leases are signed.  In the case of verbal leases, landlords must do this before tenants agree to a verbal lease.

Leases must include a disclosure form about lead-based paint unless a certified inspector has checked the property and said in writing that it is lead-based paint free.

Sellers must tell buyers in writing about lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards before entering into a sales contract.

Sales contracts must include a disclosure form about lead-based paint in the building.

Sellers must offer buyers 10 days to check for lead hazards.

Renovators must give homeowners and occupants the "Lead Poisoning - How to Protect Iowa Families" pamphlet before they start work.  Landlords and property managers who perform renovations must also give this pamphlet to tenants before they start work.
