Wondering if you should get a Mold Inspection /Assessment?

Wondering if you should get a Mold Inspection / Mold Assessment before buying a home is a common question in our industry. 

The short answer is yes. While every home-buying situation is different, we strongly recommend getting certified mold testing before buying a home. The reason for this is because mold can create significant structural damage to a home if not treated. And before you think this is just another excuse to fork over money before making a large investment, mold inspection is actually becoming a common practice in real estate transactions. And the benefits are worth it.  Everyone responds to mold differently. There is a spectrum between those people who are very sensitive to mold vs. others who are not and those in between. The highest risk populations to mold exposure include infants and children, pregnant women, the elderly, people who are already sick or have existing health conditions and those who have respirator conditions like asthma.

What will warrant a Mold Assessment / Inspection
