Peeling paint on outbuilding

[Meandering]

I think the actual issue is whether the the home was built "before January 1, 1978." The point of the requirement is the concern about lead based paint, not whether or not "any" paint is peeling, scaling or chipping. If the paint was applied after January 1, 1978 then the above requirement would not apply.

CAN is correct. The requirement is not for when the paint was applied, it's for when the structure was built. Subsequent "newer" paint layers serve to encapsulate the older possible lead paint. It last year's paint is peeling, it still fails MPR because that paint is no longer encapsulating the alleged "bad" paint beneath it.

There is a secondary concern with paint issues. If there is no paint then it could be a soundness issue. Here in Oregon with all the rain a dwelling or building with no paint or 90% of the paint having peeled off would not last long...

It doesn't matter what anything means or what anyone thinks something might mean.

The protocol must be followed no matter what. There is no need to interpret or second guess. That's what makes FHA appraising so flipping easy.

Your recollection is NOT correct.
