brian kuhns: Of Radon and Witchcraft - 08/29/12 11:28 PM
 
 

 
      We've all seen them, those hideous Radon mitigation systems that run out the side of a house and extend up beyond the roof line. Whether you agree with the findings about Radon and it's harmful effects on humans who live in a house exposed to Radon is a matter of debate.
 
     I've had several buyer clients that have requested having Radon mitigation systems be installed after having testing done on the home they are under contract to purchase.  The response from sellers and even some Agents has been eye opening.
