Mastering Lead-Based Paint Compliance in Property Management With Monica Gilroy
Monica Gilroy is the Managing and Founding Member at The Gilroy Firm, a national real estate litigation and property management law firm. She has over 30 years of experience in real estate litigation, title insurance defense, foreclosure, bankruptcy, and fair housing matters. Monica is a Georgia Super Lawyer, a National Title Professional, and a frequent speaker at state and national industry conferences. She has also chaired the State Bar of Georgia's Real Property Law Section and serves on national committees for the American Land Title Association.
In this episode…Sometimes the biggest risks in real estate aren't the ones you can see, but the ones hiding in old walls and window frames. Lead-based paint has quietly resurfaced as a major compliance challenge for property managers and owners, fueled by shifting regulations and increasing enforcement. With rules quickly changing, how do you protect your business and your tenants?
According to Monica Gilroy, a nationally recognized real estate attorney, the danger comes from misunderstanding how much the landscape has shifted. She explains that two long-standing protections property managers relied on were removed without much warning, leaving companies exposed in ways they've never been before. Suddenly, managers are required to hold certifications even when they're not the ones doing the work, and they share full liability even if a certified contractor makes the mistake. Monica illustrates how simple oversights like missing initials or an unfamiliar brochure can balloon into tens of thousands of dollars in penalties. Her take is clear: awareness and proactive preparation aren't optional anymore; they're the only way to stay ahead of an aggressive enforcement environment.
In this episode of The Same Day Podcast, host Yoni Schmidt sits down with Monica Gilroy, Managing and Founding Member at The Gilroy Firm, to discuss the shifting responsibilities around lead-based paint compliance. You'll learn why the EPA's rule changes caught much of the industry off guard, how minor documentation errors can lead to major fines, and what types of repairs trigger mandatory lead-based paint safe practices.
