ROFL!!! Howie, definately!

Sincerely,

Kathleen

That's a nice one. I have seen whole basements like that. A shame that there are so many homes full of mold

Yuk!! Hate it when that happens.

Yuck -- I think that would scare away almost any buyer...forget the name.

Did you hold your breath? Hopefully you did not touch it.

HOWIE HAHAHAHA that is priceless.

That is scary icky . . . science project :)

I think I would have to taste it first to decide if it was a deal breaker...

ok...not! LOL!

Ron, buddy, friend, pal, send me you addy and I will send you a sample. just kidding

Larry- on the repo-s I usually take an allergy pill a half hour before touring and carry a dust mask just in case. Unlike Ron, I don't have to use all my five senses, although this did not have a noticeable smell (not that I got very close)

The picture doesn't show how thick that fuzzy stuff is- I am going to surf a bit tonight and see if I can find a write up on something similar (disclaimer, I am not a mold expert, I am not identifying this as mold, I am using the term mold in a generic sense)

The rest of you- what are you doing up so late looking at gross pictures on the web!!- be good cw

As this photo loaded, I could feel my chest tightening and I had---to----take-----shor--ter----breaths! WHEW!!!! This stuff scares me worse than bugs or snakes or other creepy crawly stuff!

Marantino- I wasn't scared, but then I run pretty fast for an old gal! (especially around the creepy crawly stuff) I normally don't do basements unless I know the client is making an offer. That's a job for the inspector types. cw

That looks nasty. I'm guessing this basement needs help.

JUL

That's gross!!!!! Where in the world did you find that! Did the inspector tell you what type of mold it is?

Kay- it did not get to an inspector, it killed the deal all on its own. Client made an offer on another property that met his needs.

JUL

Hmm, JUST WHAT do you mean by "Inspector Types" hmm? LOL

I think you should name that thing "The Blob That Ate My Commission".

Kevin, long time no see- FYI, I only get commission on properties that close, this one was a no go from the start- only thing to come out of it was a little eye candy and stories to tell the grand-kids of the time I........

ps, I have been running around like crazy and need to get back to writing about my wonderful industry.
