The "M" word everyone fearsI have no idea why this came out sideways, any way to fix it would be appreciated. It was fine when I imported it.No one wants to hear or see the word "Mold" in their home inspection, but it happens doesn't it?Mold remediation can be very expensive. Mold typically grows in dark damp places... like in this case, inside the wall. What you are actually seeing is what is coming through the wall, it is very likely once we open that wall we will see logs more mold than you see right here.You are caught between a rock and a hard place sometimes. If you don't be honest and call it on a renovation loan, you can be way out on a limb. Even though remediation is pretty expensive it may be necessary for the health and well being of the buyers.It isn't your job to hide this... 03/11/2017

Many years ago, I showed a condo that was listed in the MLS to a buyer.  The photos depicted the unit as it was when the seller lived there, before he began his "remodeling" project. The price shown in MLS was fair based on the condition shown in the photos.Upon opening the door, the first thing that we noticed was  .... nothing! There was absolutely nothing in the condo. No sheetrock, no interior doors, no HVAC system, nothing.  We found the seller's "price list" for add ons (add ons that the seller was going to complete himself):Property to be sold as is, where is, as any empty shell.Option #1: walls & doors & ceilings - additional $10,000Option #2: floors - additional $6,000Option #3: bathroom fixtures - additional $10,000Option #4: HVAC and ductwork - additional $10,000Option #5: re... 08/25/2016
