A hair dryer works to thaw frozen pipes, NEVER use a blow torch or any flame source. 

Please share your experience in detail and provide a solution (if applicable).Hmmm, I've made my fair share of mistakes. i'd say the biggest was not moving forward and continuing looking for deals when i had the momentum. what i'd do is go shopping, spend the money after each wholesale, then have to go do another deal after the pipeline dried up.That and not having a system i followed religiously.

It's unlikely that 2 weeks of damp drywall created anything more than moldy, mildewy drywall and if you tear it out and dry everything out that's likely the end of the story.

My wife refused to come to the closing on my first sfr because she said it conflicted with her hair appt.

Here is drying up also.

We hired a pro water remediation company and asked them to remove dry wall, base boards, carpet, and drop fans, dehumidifier equipment, as well as apply any anti-microbial disinfectant, etc.

Your not wrong but yeowzers, you threw out the lube, wrapped it in 60 grit and just dry pounded that like a gorilla.

Now, with this, if new, I wouldn't know how or where to engage, and it's so dry with the drill down into things, I would have played for a few minutes, maybe came back a  couple times, then thrown it aside to never come back again. 

So if that did happen I would get my money back and not left out to dry?

One of them was my "cat piss" house, another was an estate sale where one bedroom and bathroom had been turned into a hair salon.
