I recently heard that Pennsylvania does not require a seller or real estate agent to disclose if a home being sold was formerly used a meth lab. Since these fumes irreversibly leeches into the building materials itself (and often the cost of rehabilitation exceeds the value of the home), is there any way to find out if your potential new home was ever used as a clandestine meth lab? Are there listings from PA or Philly law enforcement agencies that have this info and are there any test kits available to personally test the air quality and surfaces within a structure for suspect chemicals?

Thanks

Just sniff the walls and ceilings. You should be able to tell.
