Animal urine

I have looked at a few houses to flip and they are decent deals. That is at least until you go there and open up the house and the entire home reeks of urine. Have any of you purchased homes like this? What was the outcome? Or costs to remove the smells? What extents did you have to go to in order to remove the smells? Lastly was it worth the hassles? Thank you in advance!

Replied

I have been working on a rehab and we removed all the carpet and padding in the house. We also replaced the plywood in several spots where the pet urine had saturated the floor. this has really helped.
