Home with Asbestos

I've been checking out a few homes in Cleveland I'm finding that Asbestos is a common thing that tends to be in the homes. Does anyone here find that to be common in these homes and if so, how are you moving forward with the process of making an offer or disqualifying? Thank you all of your help in advance.

Pretty much any house built from the 20s through 50s has asbestos. It's not that big a deal. 90% of it can easily be encapsulated or covered over, eg laying a new floor over top of asbestos flooring. Asbestos siding actually holds up real well over time and doesnt need to be replaced. Only in small percentages does asbestos remediation need to take place.
