Except that you slight your roots...

When I’m old I want my wealth to be as deeply rooted as possible.

Remember it is the “ *** LOVE***of money “ that is the root of all evil ... not the “ money “itself !

You can decide to open up the country and go cram yourself into an arena with 15K other screaming fans rooting for this or that team that you're not genetically-superior enough to have ever had a shot of joining.

If that's the case, you're going to go places that have lower than median households by a disproportionate amount, also likely higher crime, and steadily less accessibility.I think the root of your question should be what does my risk tolerance allow versus how cheap can I go?

I'd just ensure you find the root cause of the mold, just cleaning it or removing it isn't enough if there is a bigger water intrusion issue.  

I have roots in Pineville, but my family got out when the coal jobs just started drying up.

I have roots in Sandpoint. 

I'm a new investor and I am definitely rooting for ya!

I believe the tree roots are pushing against the wall, making it worse.
