Toxic Pollution Threats

Toxic dumps, landfills, leaking underground tanks and other environmental contamination sources can drastically reduce the values of homes, properties and businesses or restrict property use. Unsuspecting purchasers of polluted property can be held financially liable for hidden problems caused by previous owners or adjoining property owners. Cleaning up pollution hazards can be extremely expensive, technically difficult and time-consuming. Living on or near a contaminated site can endanger your health.
