I just stumbled upon Prudential Properties free environmental profile page. Its free, and it lets you enter an address, and it will show you a map of any environmental hazards within 1/3 mile of the property. It will show you surrounding Leaking Storage Tanks, EPA Superfund Sites, EPA Proposed Superfund Sites, State Hazardous Waste Sites and Drug Lab Sites.
The data is supplied by EDR, Environmental Data Resouces Inc., and you can get a complete inspection from the company for a property for $99.
Probaly not a bad idea to plug in your address and give it a try. Even better if you are planning on buying a place to take a look. Did anyone find anything bad they didn’t know about by thier house? Let me know in the comments.
