Effective June 14, 2023, an Amended PCDS Must be Used by All Licensees

The PCDS has been amended to include language disclosing the presence of “indoor mold.” Some language was included in the “Environmental” section to include “indoor mold” and a new question 19-a was added to ask about “indoor mold” (see question below). 
 
19-a. HAS THE PROPERTY BEEN TESTED FOR INDOOR MOLD? YES NO UNKN (IF YES, ATTACH A COPY OF THE REPORT)

According to the memo accompanying the legislation, “Indoor mold has been referred to as "killer mold," this is because the health risks associated with certain types of mold are tremendous. Inhalation of a wide variety of fungi can lead to or exacerbate existing allergies. Mold has also been found to cause toxic effects or infections. The public needs to be aware that indoor mold is a threat and what to do to clean up indoor mold if found on their property. The history of mold must be disclosed in order to prevent further mold growth. Health risks are increased in a property where indoor mold is hidden or not identified as dangerous.”
