I find a good bathroom fan helps to cut down on moisture and mold problems. 

Especially because it is unaffected by moisture like laminate floors are.

Set up a sump pump with a way to measure moisture during storms.

Wood rots due to moisture.

Ceiling fan in bathroom looks like it needs to be changed looks like moisture from when he showers builds up and causes ceiling to peel the paint off and third he said his electric stove doesn’t work he said he has told the previous landlord multiple times about these problems and he never fixed them.

Moisture build up, rot-like you said-and termite damage are likely results.

After four days of dehumidifying, ServPro continued to read moisture throughout various rooms of the apartment and told me that removing flooring, walls, ceilings would be indicated.

I didn’t do the deal or other things that look like a deal but you can tell there is moisture in the walls that will increase the rehab by 50K and take a good deal to a waste of time or a big loss if under capitalized and not discovered in time.

High points of interest: roof, drywall moisture, foundation.

Moisture can make cat urine smells come out later in too....
