HERTSMI-2 and mold testing prospective deals
Is anyone doing mold testing before purchasing a property? Specifically the HERTSMI-2 test? I have significant concerns about mold biotoxins and health. Lawsuits related to mold are increasing as are jury awards. I have no desire to get sick from a property and I would not want others to, either.
As an investor, I am primarily interested in commercial properties and due to the cost of this type of investment, I am planning to do mold testing on prospective deals.
Below is a link to Dr. Shoemaker's website. Dr. Shoemaker is the nations leading mold expert and he is credited by Dr. Dale Bredesen (Author of "The End of Alzheimer's") as the physician who made the link between mold biotoxins and increasing the chance of Alzheimer's disease.
