Mold & Real Estate: What Buyers, Sellers, and Agents Need to Know
Mold can make or break a real estate deal. Hidden growth behind walls, under flooring, or inside HVAC systems often goes unnoticed until it surfaces during inspection—or worse, after closing. A professional K9 mold inspection provides peace of mind for everyone involved in the transaction.
Why Mold Matters in Real Estate
Buyers: Hidden mold can lead to costly repairs, health issues, or even make a home unlivable.
Sellers: Undiscovered mold can derail a sale, reduce property value, and cause delays.
Agents: Mold concerns are one of the most common deal-breakers. Offering buyers and sellers a non-invasive inspection option builds trust and speeds up closings.
