Hello,Our property located in Fort Worth,TX had a foundation repair after which it was recommended maintaining a constant level of moisture in the soil near and under the house (by placing a soaker hose on each side of the foundation no farther than 12'' from the edge of foundation to water DAILY during hot and dry months).Our property management company wrote a letter to our tenant explaining this, however I can not guarantee tenant complies.

That means he will likely have plausible deniability for the damage, as he can just claim that his contractors did the make-ready and never informed him of any mold/moisture issues.

I'm not familiar with Allure flooring, but if it's practically water proof as noted by @Edward Mccracken, then, as he indicated, the moisture is likely collecting from below the sub-flooring (be it a crawl space, basement or sleepers on a slab) and building up underneath the Allure (e.g., waterproof = impermeable).There doesn't need to be visible standing water for this to happen either.

Mold appears to be limited to drywall in a couple areas (wall behind a shower that was leaking and has been repaired, wall behind the washing machine).If remediation is $5k for a small job (pulling that out of the air), I doubt seasoned flippers routinely have this professionally remediated, especially when simply tearing out drywall/replacing/wiping down with bleach after correcting the moisture problem is sufficient to correct it.
