vash98mm | Can you buy a house filled with mold? |
and does the city, state, or government do anything to prevent a house from being sold or rented if it has mold? |

Around here down south especially after a hurricane black mold is common. One has to tear out insulation and dry out the house then treat it with a strong bleach spray on solution which generally kills the mold. It is very common in air conditioning ducts of older systems and much more common than people think especially in very moist environments. It can make you very sick if it is not treated or removed. Be sure to change your air heating and cooling filters regularily and get good ones especially down south. |

You can but why would you? It's not going to be cheap to remediate the problem. No, it's not the governments responsibility. |

uumm i would hope that you would not buy a house filled with mold!this is not good for your health.not at all!!i know that in texas when someone goes to sell a house it is inspected by a city inspector and if it does not pass then it can not be sold until whatever problems they found are fixed.and as far as renting out a home with mold i would hope that no one would do this to someone but if they did they could be sued for any problems that were caused!! |

I would grab your agent and run away from a house with mold - the mold would have to be remediated as condition for sale. |

Of course you can but why would you want to? Are you planning to turn it into a mushroom farm?
Before I would even venture into buying a home with mold I would have an expert go in and test it and tell me what kind of mold it has and if it is going to kill me or make me grow a third ear and then tell me how much it is going to cost me to get rid of it. Government entities have the power to condemn such a house if the home is determined to be a health hazard not just to the occupant but to the surrounding neighbors. Oh yeah I almost forgot if it was built prior to 1978 it also has lead paint and that has the potential of killing babies and the elderly. Imagine a mold spore in a tank. |

Why would you want to? You may as well put all of your money in a pile and set fire to it.
If you can't get a C.O. because of the mold, you probably won't be able to sell it.
If the property can't be remediated, it needs to be demolished. |

Why would you want to? Mold can cause some serious problems with your health. If the house has been blacklisted by insurance companies, any buyer may only be able to get high-risk insurance offered by their state...which is about triple the price of typical homeowners insurance. That alone should discourage a buyer if the health risks don't. |

If a house has black mold sometimes, it has to be torn down. |

Isn't this something that the inspector of the house, BEFORE you bought it,should have told you? |
