Lead Safe Housing Registry

The Alameda County Lead-Safe Housing Listing is provided to inform the renting community of housing units that have been made safe from lead-based paint hazards.

Lead-based paint is primarily found on homes and apartments built before 1978. The older the building, the more likely it is to have lead-based paint. To find out more information or to receive a free copy of the ACLPPP Guide to Lead-Safe Housing for Tenants and First Time Home Buyers, please call the Information Line at (510) 567-8280.

The following units were determined to be lead-safe following their participation in the Alameda County "Affordable Lead-Safe Housing" Program funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control.

Important Advisories

"Lead-Safe" The units shown below were deemed lead-safe based on a lead evaluation in the month shown. "Lead-safe" means that there was no deteriorated lead-based paint, no lead-contaminated dust, and no exposed lead-contaminated soil identified at the time of the lead evaluation. This does not mean the property is "lead-free" as lead-based paint or lead in the soil may remain.

On-going lead safety requires the owner to safely maintain paint coatings and soil covering and to use lead-safe work practices in maintaining or repairing the unit. Prospective renters or buyers should check with the owner to see if these practices have been followed. For more information on lead-safe work practices see Lead Hazards-What To Do.
