Miami-Dade landlords and sellers of pre-1978 housing must follow federal Title X lead-paint disclosure rules, and the Florida Department of Health Miami-Dade office responds to elevated child blood-lead cases with home assessments.
Federal Title X (42 U.S.C. §4852d) and EPA Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) rules apply to all pre-1978 housing in Miami-Dade. Landlords and sellers must give buyers and tenants the EPA pamphlet, a lead-paint disclosure form, and any known reports before lease or sale. Renovators disturbing painted surfaces in pre-1978 housing must be EPA-certified and use lead-safe work practices. The Florida Department of Health Miami-Dade County office investigates elevated child blood-lead cases, performs home assessments, and refers landlords to the Building Department for code orders when lead hazards are found.
Skipping required disclosures, hiring uncertified renovators, or ignoring health-department orders can lead to federal civil penalties up to several thousand dollars per violation plus county code-enforcement liens.
