The more common
kinds of exposure are from dust in houses with lead paint, from water contaminated with lead (by passing through old pipes, which is what happened in Flint), or from toys, jewelry, tableware, or
home remedies that may be contaminated with lead.
Power
of sale is a different
kind of default
remedy: rather than taking title to your
home, your lender simply sells it from under you and uses the proceeds to pay off your debts: mortgages, property tax arrears, property liens.
