Homes could be tested for radon, mold, lead, toxic metals / dust, etc.

"If you’re buying a new build — at least in my area of the Northeast — the builder will install what's called a 'passive radon mitigation system.' It’s the framework for an active system, should you choose to install one. We didn’t know that they don’t actually test the new homes for radon, but we were required to test when we went to sell it. Turns out that our home had 50 times the safe limit of radon, even though it was only 5 years old. We spent $3500 installing the active system after the fact."
