These homes are new construction located in a dry area of Houston, TX that was not affected by Hurricane Harvey. 

I know most of BP audience was not around prior to 08 so they are not up to speed what happened..When lending dried up in 08 it not only dried up it STOPPEd and it stopped for many years.. you simply could not get an investor loan unless you were one really high earning W 2 type professional.. and or the loan product simply did not exist.

So I'd check with city code book and see what's required,, all that humidity has to go somewhere,, and inside isn't where it belongs.Even if it was a private home,, the amount of moisture staying inside is bad for your house structure,, mold issues, paint peeling, rot, over time it will become a bigger problem

Yea, it sucks getting 1% or less on your money but having that dry powder to deploy when you find a deal can pay off huge in the end.

Seller backed out of the deal last minute leaving me high and dry after several hundreds of dollars and time invested.

I don't like being near storage facilities or dry cleaners because who knows what hazardous materials have leaked into the ground and spread. 3.

The crawl space needs to be clean, dry and clear of debris that could attract pests.

The building is currently "the worst building in a nicer neighborhood" -- You can't see it, but there's a significant amount of wood rot, etc.

Imagine if 90% of Burger King's sales were Quarter Pounders, and demand for Quarter Pounders dried up overnight.

The tenant had two friends in town and it seems they had partied that night, so they were all there in the condo when the flooding occurred, but were not aware of the flooding until much too late.Although things dried out, the bamboo flooring is bowed in the bedroom, kitchen and living/dining area.
