Imagine buying the home of your dreams, you find it was used for a meth lab and the house is not habitable because it was contaminated and Red Tagged.

Something to do for dust contamination... buy a lot of sil (Maybe 2mm or so) and turn the area into a giant plastic bag.

Partnerships have a high chance of failure.When you involve family they have a REALLY HIGH chance of failure.The reason is many can't separate family time and business time.It seeps over and contaminates other aspects of your lives.When a family partnership goes bad it doesn't end there.It lingers on for years or even decades with hurt feelings.If the partnership is 50/50 who will make the decisions??

The water can be fine and then run out and you have to dig much further down or do a new hole all together.Also many make the mistake of only occasionally testing the well water.You need to test very frequently.The water can go from good to contaminated very quickly.I have seen it make people sick permanently.If you are going to sell to an FHA buyer or hold for a long time I would connect at the street.JMHO

Sounds to me like someone is saying an "as is" contract releases them of disclosure requirements which is not true, but even if there is lead, asbestos, radon, under sized wiring, contaminated water, broken sewer lines, leaky roof and no working mechanicals, you bought the place!

Your well water can be contaminated.

The chemicals mix with the water in the Ocean to make Potassium Chloride or something similar(can't remember the scientist jargon they were saying).Anyway when the compounds hit the Ocean they cancel each other out and dispurse.Right now the levels are not ultra dangerous but they have abandoned one reactor because of the levels there.The radiation does pose a risk to the immediate area and surrounding areas depending on which way the wind blows and velocity.What helps is with Cherynoble containment was weak.Today buildings are built stronger making leaks and explosions not travel high into the air.It was the high air travel before that caused wide spread contamination by the winds.The design of todays buildings helps containment.Still dangerous but not approaching Cherynoble proportions.I will pray for them.

Then the health department comes in and says that the walls are contaminated and you'll have to gut that unit and the common walls with two other units!

I was told by the building department that they thought the tank was removed at one house, but the neighbor said it was not, he was right it was still there and the ground contaminated.

I don't want to have 2-3 passive investments that are contaminated by a single "active" investment later on such that they all are subject to UBIT (UBTI?)
