Inexpensive Kitchen Updates for Low End Homes - Home Staging Minneapolis MN - 11/19/11 04:33 PM

The explanation Jay gives is clear and comprehendable. Recently homes I have sold required mold remediation in the attic - cost for a smaller home has been in the range of $1200. Better & cheaper to ventilate! Via Jay Markanich - Northern VA Home Inspector (Jay Markanich Real Estate Inspections, LLC): For attics that are not intentionally built not to ventilate, attic venting is extremely important.
