The problems are with the inexperienced under capitalized people studying wholesaling strategies as put forth by a variety of guru/mentors and the temptation these people feel when they smell a profit.   

Per inspection the HVAC was from 2009. worried if the place is hiding a smell of some sort because there were several plug ins in the home as well.

They’re getting smarter about it too—trying to clean up any residue so there’s no visible evidence, though the smell still lingers.I currently have a $350 fine for smoking inside, including weed.

(Everyone complains that they can smell each other's food and smoke and  in each other's apartments ) The building is in Northern Jersey where I believe the building is responsible to provide ventilation by law. 

If yours does, you might be able to get help this way without needing a full legal battle.

The smell of mildew is strong.I know the repairs part...but the mildew smell and such will be a new challenge.Besides replacing the damaged areas, I was recommended to shellac the entire floors and spray a mildew solution everywhere.

I'm not sure battling them legally will get the results I need, only possibly delay it. 

That’s half the battle won.I love that mindset of caring for those who care for you. 🫡 Mentorship makes a world of difference, and having someone in your corner to sharpen your ideas and keep you on track will definitely help you hit those goals faster.Looking forward to seeing you win, Christian!

The few that I looked at but didn't buy would have had to have all of the wood removed and anything else that smelled of smoke.

I was able to get free hand and get the spray on him....and apply some low end not so nice blows my dad taught me to use when battling a stronger opponent ....then I called the cops.
