Wisconsin Lead-Based Paint Disclosure
This Lead-Based Paint Disclosure is built with Wisconsin as the governing state. These are the Wisconsin landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.
Wisconsin rules at a glance
| Lead-based paint | Federal warning and known-hazard disclosure for housing built before 1978 (42 U.S.C. §4852d). |
|---|---|
| Landlord entry | At least 12 hours’ advance notice, unless the tenant agrees to lessATCP 134.09(2) |
Landlord entry & access
By statute, a Wisconsin landlord may enter on advance notice and at reasonable times to inspect, make repairs, or show the unit to prospective tenants or buyers; if the tenant is absent and the landlord reasonably believes entry is necessary to protect the premises, no notice is required (Wis. Stat. §704.05(2)).
ATCP 134.09(2) defines “advance notice” as at least 12 hours, unless the tenant agrees to a shorter time after being told of the proposed entry. No notice is needed if the tenant requests or consents in advance to the entry, in a health or safety emergency, or when the tenant is absent and entry is necessary to protect the premises. On entering, the landlord must announce their presence and identify themselves on request.
Required disclosures in Wisconsin
- Domestic-abuse notice — Every residential rental agreement must include, in the lease or an addendum, the “Notice of Domestic Abuse Protections” in the exact statutory wording (Wis. Stat. §704.14). Leaving it out can void the whole lease if the lease also allows termination for criminal activity (Wis. Stat. §704.44(10)).
- Code violations — Before signing or accepting earnest money or a deposit, the landlord must disclose known uncorrected building or housing code violations that affect the unit or common areas and pose a significant threat to health or safety (ATCP 134.04(2)).
- Utility charges — If heat, water, or electricity isn’t included in rent, that must be disclosed in advance — along with the allocation method if units aren’t separately metered (ATCP 134.04(3)).
- Owner & manager — The name and address of the person managing the unit and of the owner or agent authorized to accept service of process, at an in-state address (ATCP 134.04(1)).
- Check-in rights — Written notice of the tenant’s 7-day right to report pre-existing damage and request the prior tenant’s damage list (ATCP 134.06(1)).
- Nonstandard rental provisions — Any deposit deduction beyond the standard categories must be on a separate document titled “NONSTANDARD RENTAL PROVISIONS” that the tenant signs or initials (Wis. Stat. §704.28(2)).
- Lead-based paint — Federal warning and known-hazard disclosure for housing built before 1978 (42 U.S.C. §4852d).
