Episode 059 – NYC Lead Paint Compliance – A Guide to Beat August 2025

Realty Speak

In this timely episode of Realty Speak, I’m joined by Guest Host Josh Blackman, CEO of Brownstone Property Group and Greg Krueger, SVP of LEW Environmental Services. Together, we dive headfirst into NYC’s lead paint regulations, cutting through the noise to give you the straight facts on what you need to know.
We cover everything from the looming August 9th, 2025 compliance deadline to how XRF lead paint testing is reshaping the way property owners approach lead paint compliance. What’s the real difference between lead-free and lead-safe – lead abatement and lead remediation? We’ve got you covered.
Whether you own, manage, or invest in properties, this episode is packed with actionable advice on avoiding penalties and protecting your building occupants.
