[quote=Anonymous]You will have lead paint. If the house is freshly painted and you keep it clean, you shouldn't have many issues. If you use a cleaning lady, have her wipe the window sills and around the doorways with a damp cloth when she goes through the house. You almost certainly won't have asbestos. Regarding the owner being cheap with repairs, its possible. But repairing is different than renovating. Unless you're asking for complete lead paint abatement (which the landlord won't and shouldn't agree to do), I don't know what kind of massive repair you'd end up disagreeing over.[/quote]
