Sellers can be a little confused when they are asked to sign an asbestos disclaimer. Asbestos is a known carcinogen, and, when exposed, tiny particles can be released into the air making it possible for homeowners to breathe it.

Asbestos was a common insulator used in many homes. It was used in many applications including siding, tape wrapping for furnace air ducts and in some "popcorn" ceilings. There are several remedies that range from the simple to the complex.

When you are ready to sell, please give me a call, and I can dispel a lot of the myths about asbestos. It's a lot more common than you might think.
