I was thinking if I had  a mold remediation company gut the place, I might be able to get a new roof, drywall, and flooring,  and get it rentable.I'm wondering if anyone has ever taken on a totally moldy house,  and what their experience was.

Still, demand is high and supply remains low (except luxury rentals, which is in bubble territory right now).BTW, all units in this project sold last year for 2k less than asking across all 3 units and we were very fortunate to have all 3 go under contract right before the snow blitz began.After the sale, we did have to go back and remediate mold in the basement.  

If it's built in the 60's likely galvanized water pipes including a main running to the street, lead based paint remediation issues, electrical, code upgrades might be required for sprinkler systems, cast iron sewer that needs to be replaced etc. 

You can run into lead based paint EPA remediation guidelines which can be expensive and time consuming.

So lets just take some wild guesses here:Professional Mold remediation guesstimate 10KFully gut and replacement of kitchen (depending on size and quality level of upgrades) can average 10K - 35K.Bathroom full gut and replace 5K - 15K (depending on fit and finish)Central Heat and Air for a 2 Ton unit 10K depending on type, and if you need duct work add another 3K-8KInterior paint 2KExterior paint 2K-5KUsing reverse cost estimating for contingencies add another 7.5K - 10K So just guestimating your looking at 95K rehab costs.

Repairs- 100k (with buffer) Has an easement issue, spoke with attorney there are a couple ways to go about to re-mediate.

Find as small area to test remediation and remove a piece of the drywall to see what the damage is.
