Had an odd one...

A 1st floor condo on slab buyer wanting a Radon Inspection.

Makes perfect sense...

However, I warned them that if the numbers came back high, the seller might not be able to remediate the Radon as they don't own the foundation/slab/structure and it would be up to the Condo association to do that, and they might not want to open that can of worms....

How would you have explained/written the possible limitations of Radon in a Condo?

I would perform the test and report the result. If there is a concern, it would likely be a concern for the entire building. It would be up to the seller to take up with the association. The lawyers can sort out who would be responsible for remediation costs.
