What Realtors Should Know About Mold

When most people think of mold or discover that they have mold they are generally going to ask one of two questions. They are either going to ask how is this going to affect my property value or how am I going to get rid of this? It is completely true that mold can drive down the value of your home, but that doesn’t mean it is recoverable. You don’t have to let mold ruin your chances of selling your home or crashing its value. In fact, you can take this moldy situation and turn it into a more profitable one.

Of course, this is only going to happen if you tackle the problem in the right manner within the right time frame. No one wants to deal with mold, but the truth of the matter is that the lack of knowledge makes the entire situation worse. This is why it is to enter into every situation as prepared as possible. Below, you are going to learn what the real estate market needs to know about mold.

Giving Your Client The Facts

Just because a home is infected with mold it doesn’t necessarily mean that the home in uninhabitable. In fact, there are many forms of mold that aren’t even dangerous until they are disturbed. All that aside, you as the realtor are responsible for letting your clients know this. Even if the mold is dangerous, you can still move into the home as long as the moisture source is eliminated. All mold is the cause of some untapped moisture exposure.

In fact, mold thrives in these areas where it is dark and damp. Not only this, but the attics and crawlspaces are without a doubt two of the less frequented places in any home.
