If the condensation was heavy, the existing drywall can be saturated with moisture and that takes time to dry out.

Lots of moisture in basement and from roof area.

Larger master baths Ill do in satin, semi-gloss on the rest for greater moisture resistance.If there is color on the walls I like flat white ceiling as the flat reduces shadowing which highlights imperfections, and flat white "lifts" the ceiling while darker colors "lower" it.

Small aquariums haven't been a problem for us, but the large ones give off too much moisture and have the potential to cause more water damage.

One of the properties is a 1 Br/1Ba that needs some improvement, there may be a moisture problem, it has a noticeable bug problem, last year there was a plumbing problem, yea...it needs some work.I am not sure about the classifications nor the current living environment of the other property, but my guess is it's 50/50 on similarity.The owner is offering my friend both properties for $150k with $5k down.

We have gas FA in our primary residence and electric FA in our family vacation property.I absolutely prefer gas forced air heat - natural gas is a good value in our area and forced air movement keeps moisture down thus reducing problems with mold.

That included gutting to the studs, joists, re-plumbing everything (tub and toilet were re-located), re-wiring, insulation, moisture-resistant drywall, new window, new basic tub, subfloor, underlayment, fairly cheap tile on floor and tub surround, sink/vanity from lowes, basic toilet, paint, etc.

I look for pictures (my San Antonio inspector actually runs a fiber optic camera down the vents to look for breaks that may cause trouble by dumping heat or moisture between walls or in other places that I don’t want) and descriptions.

I concur,get a dehumidifier.we have those run all day long up here when its 20 below,,,its called a furnace,,burns moisture out of the air like mad.

-make sure all your a/c vents are propery sealed. this helps reduce drafts, moisture, dust, pollen, and noise.
