The humidity is high and carpets are not going to dry out.

I am highly concerned that the previous owner just slapped some paint on the walls to cover issues and while it's not hot and humid now, summer time could prove to be a disaster if I have an underlying problem.So thoughts, opinions, ideas?

AWESOME out door adventures and lifestyle.. no humidity and price points that work for owner occ plex's.. 

Cons:Needs good surface prep (flat smooth clean)Needs to be rolled with a 100lb roller at least ($20 rental at hd)Not waterproof over woodWill curl in hot/humid/direct sunlight sunrooms etc without being glued down.Applications we have done with success:Floor leveler over existing tile bathroom then peel/stick vinyl tileOver level wood floors (plywood) Over existing linoleum Over concreteOver damaged and stained oak hardwoods (when you pull it up it does not leave a residue)

& the belief we only have 2 seasons SNOW & HUMIDITY is a myth :)

As my Prof would say "Such a 'natural system' will tend towards equilibrium for areas of higher or lower relative humidity" & you definitely have a serious case of moisture diffusion.The relative humidity within the concrete slab is very different than that of the air in the basement room.

One of my previous homes had exposed duct work and the only time I had a "sweating" issue was with one duct vent specifically and only when the humidity went past 90% which in the Austin area does not happen that frequently. 

I agreed to lock-in the price and sign the contract now because it's bird-in-hand.While the buyer is renting my house which they will be buying, they are finding things wrong with it -- carpet is heavily stained and worn (it is, my last tenants were awful), there's dings in the drywall (again, bad previous tenants), the mirrors and light fixtures are rusting (Hawaii is humid, things rust fast), and there's bugs, possibly termites.What, if any of this, am I responsible for?

Heating a home is killer and in the midwest it's crazy humid in the summer so your gas and energy costs are always high.

Laminate floors don't do well in our humid climate.
