of the property for the presence of lead based paint and/or lead based paint hazards at the purchasers

deficiencies and corrections needed, together with a copy of the inspection and/or risk assessment report.

prior to settlement. If seller will correct the condition, the seller shall furnish the purchaser with a certificate
from a risk assessor or inspector demonstrating that the condition has been remedied before the date of
settlement. If the seller does not elect to make repairs, or if the seller makes a counter offer, the purchaser
