However, I do agree with the title of your article. Realtors should not be considered meth cops. The answer is simple - The seller of a home should be required to have professional meth contamination testing done on their home BEFORE they are allowed to sell it. Whether a seller is an individual or an institution doesn't matter. Whoever owns the property that is being sold should be required to have it professionally tested and cleaned by a professional cleanup company if necessary BEFORE selling it to anyone else. The onus for the problem MUST remain with the seller not the new buyer. Selling homes to uninformed buyers who don't know that the new home they're buying is considered a hazardous waste site that is according to the government "unfit for human use" is nothing less than criminal, in my opinion.

I can understand the frustration of those ending up buying a house and finding it contaminated. They look for any possible source to blame. They don't want to get stuck with a clean-up bill either. This is a tough topic and one that won't likely be resolved to everyones satisfaction. But, Realtors? That is ridiculous. Thanks for your comment.
