Keysha and all others interested,I had an inspector come out today to look at it, and he took samples of the outside for a baseline and also the interior of the unit to check if there is in fact a mold problem, but as far as the moisture goes, the issue he thinks is with the fact that the unit does not receive much sunlight and just the fact of it being a basement unit without vented HVAC causes air to stagnate and moisture to build.He's told me that for basement units in Georgia it is absolutely standard to have a dehumidifier in the unit and for it to run an hour or two a day.
