Mold in the home

Here is a link to a recent debate about buyer agency and mold in a home when there is a purchase contract. There are two lessons to be learned here. One is that it really is best for the buyers in a home purchase transaction to have their own representation. The seller's agent has an obligation to treat buyers fairly but whenever an agent is wearing "two hats" in a transaction there is always a greater potential for conflict. The second lesson is that if you are looking at a home and see mold, the a little red flag should go up in your head. Mold in itself is not necessarily a dangerous issue but if it is present in a home, then you need to be aware that the lender usually is going to have problems with it if the problem is not remediated before settlement.

Sweet home in Capitol View Park



Hi all,






I just put this home on the market in Captiol View Park. It is one of the nicest listings that I have had over the years. I really do love the older ones.
