I know the feeling when you see the ink on the first deal gets dry.

In reality though, what happens in most cases is the wholesaler will cancel the contract and walk away from the purchase leaving the seller high and dry. 

I do expect things may dry up at my bank. 

I think Texas is one of the few states outpacing us right now but they have issues with weather on the coasts there and very high dry heat temps.

Raccoon's love dry dog food, it's a good bait and if you have a dog keep it's food inside the raccoon are probably eating more than the dog.  

Go get that steal of a deal on that 65 year old shack that some poor slob might rent to stay dry. 

Make sure it's not something out of your control (soft soils, sinkhole, etc) that will cause reaccuring problems. 

It is a very common problem in my area with our soils and the older houses that have block walls that were never reinforced.Steel I beams are common because if the wall isn't bowed bad, it saves a lot money compared to digging out the wall and either pushing it back and reinforcing it or laying a new one.

We all know the MLS is dry and most of the deals I have come across from "wholesalers" are just trying to move stuff that no one wanted from the MLS.

Assuming you've fixed the leak and dried it out... spray the walls with your choice of chemical like chlorox.
