I am definitely irritated that the Realtor almost without doubt concealed this information though.

., seller sues for damages for your failure to close and property value has declinedEnvironmental claims such as "Toxic mold"Loan defaults because you walk away from a bad propertyTenants hurt while working on the property for reduced rentWrongful eviction or discriminationProperty vacant for more than 30 days while doing rehab and someone is injuredAnimal damage to propertyZero bite rule because of "attack" dogThese are just some of the situations I have dealt with regarding clients who were not covered.

Federal Tax liens, toxic waste dumps, hazardous materials onsite.

No federal disclosures from a landlord whose job is to combat environmental concerns and toxic hazards.

Why is that not documented in some official, irritable capacity as of your closing date, and why is there no way transparently documenting any claims / liens against that title going forward, where we can establish ownership without involving attorneys and insurance companies?

but, most mold are non-toxic?

In the end, although $1500 extra cash in hand doesn't get you a down payment on another rental, if your BRRRR rental investment is earning 10% to 20% IRR, it's theoretically better to reinvest that $1500 in another house, than pay down the mortgage (where your IRR is more like the 4.75% APR)Good luck

This kind of sneaky schilling stuff just mostly irritates the majority of people on BP

Very little mold is actually toxic to most people, but there has been enough sensationalization of the topic that the public now thinks every mildewy shower is going to kill them. 

Even the dangerous types of mold typically irritate the lungs after lengthy exposure.
