Do I have to disclose lead paint when selling a home in Folly Beach or Goose Creek?

Federal law requires disclosing known lead-based paint hazards when selling any home built before 1978, which covers older properties in both Folly Beach and Goose Creek regardless of South Carolina's own disclosure rules. Sellers must provide a lead paint disclosure form and any records of testing or abatement they have. Brian Beatty confirms a home's construction date early so this federal requirement is handled correctly from the start.
