Mold remediation. Joists in crawl space
Hey everyone.
Has anyone ever had to remediate mold on floor joists in a crawl space? I know where the moisture is coming from and how much it will be to fix that, but I'm trying to put an offer in on this tomorrow and I can't get anyone to come out for a few days.
I'm curious if anyone has had to deal with before and how they took care of it. Of course, I could put in a contingency offer with the plan to work it out after I have a contract, however, the REO market in Nashville is crazy I know someone is gonna come by without doing their due diligence and buy without looking in the crawl.
Just curious if anyone can tell me realistically how cheaply I can take care of this. I certainly understand mold is serious but I don't buy into the hype and scare about mold and know that the house does not need to be bulldozed and the rubble set on fire. Essentially, I need it to pass inspection when I turn around to sell in a few months.
Thanks!
