Gutted, DRYED, and treated chemically for mold before any work is done.

There are some chemicals you can inject that find the leak and seal it, but that has a 50/50 success ratio.

They don't have the equipment and want to use chemicals and dogs.  

Obviously its pure speculation but I bet there will be some tight markets compounded by the deep pockets of the companies who will need to get people into their refineries and chemical plants. 

An ozone machine won't help if there is carpet/pad that is soaked with pet urine.After using the ozone machine, it does leave a chemical sort of smell after a treatment.

Maybe that sounds harsh or mean.

Because that is often what you have to do when dealing with D class properties (sorry don't want to sound too harsh).

There are many ways to make this happen, partners, owner financing, syndication etc etc But not to sound harsh but commercial is much different than residential.

In my case, my employment is outside the real estate world...although, an interesting fact is most of the value of the company I work for, a 95 year old environmentally friendly chemical company, is in the real estate they have acquired over the years to house the business.On to my goals...2017 was a foundation forming year for me as a RE investor - I listened to 100's of hours of podcasts (mostly BP featuring many that are posting on this thread), read 1000's of pages (books, blogs, posts), analyzed many properties, and talked to several RE professionals.In 2018, I will 1) connect and form relationships with professionals that are in the business of finding deals - finding deals (and finding the time to do so) has been challenging. 2) deploy my knowledge and capital to build passive-ish income through buy-and-hold RE investments so that by 2022 my investment income will surpass my W-2 income. 3) give back to the BP community by openly sharing my knowledge, experience (albeit relatively shallow at this point), successes, and failures with others.

I was a bit harsh with my post, but I did file a complaint with the BBB, and was refunded my money.
