Mold
Hey guys.
I'm looking at a Fannie Mae Home Path property. The guy that used to own it stripped it and left. By talking to some of the neighbors I learned that the house was vacant (and no power) during hurricane Sandy. Looks like there was 2 feet of water sitting in the basement for a LOOOOOOONG time.
It was a finished basement.
My question is - can I demo, remove and dispose of all the moldy sheetrock myself or does a certified company have to do it? I talked to a guy from a restoration company and of COURSE he said you had to be certified....
If I have to pay a certified company it would probably put me over budget and make this deal, well...not a deal.
Thanks guys!
I had some pictures to share, but the site won't let me upload right now
