Hello,
We are about to buy a HUD home with mold in one room. We have experance with rehabing homes. But none with mold. Should we just take down the wall and clean the studs. The walls are the ancient plaster and lattis. That really sucks I know!!! The hold is in the center of the wall. In a few areas. I am guess it has grown up from the basement. We were also told there is mold in the basement. I know I can used bleach in the basement and all will be fine there.
Thanks
Yes I knew about the mold. I paid only 1500 for this home. We are both able to take down walls rebuild them. I just have no clue who to take care of this problem. Do I take the wall down then clean the mold out of the studs. What is best stuff to use. Someone has gotten to know steps to take care of this problem.
Thanks again
bama,
are they also in ohio? and can i question how terrible was your and what was your cost. if you don’t mind
If we are unable to take care of the problem then we will hire someone to do it. Money is not an issue for this problem. There is no siding. It is an 1800’s house and has the ancient plaster and lattics. We are thinking the mold is from the basement and went up into the lving room. It is only in two remote areas. There is one small area in the basement. Yes I know it can be larger. Also this is not blackmold. It is green in color.
Megan,
You are telling me to rip the wall down right. And replace the studs??? I was already planing on doing this. But how do I take care of the mold in the basement and areas I can’t take down.
this home has been vacant for over 9 months. Yes the home is distressed home. But hey I only got it for 1500 LOL… Mold does not bother me. We are all healthy people. I just want to get the problem take care of. There was a person who posted about the heat and ac not working. After you said that then it made more sence as to why there was mold in there. The home is very dry. No leaks based on HUD report and also inspection report.
Thanks again everyone is being so helpfull

Mold in my home please help ?
Tuesday, September 15th, 2009need help we’re buying a foreclosed home. issue: new main and other drain pipes is exposed in the bsmt .?
Friday, June 26th, 2009This home is perfect! or nearly perfect. Homes in the surrounding area or in the same subd are sold. Except for this one. The outside looks awesome. backyard is fantastic. Interior is fantastic. roof is newer. walls have no holes. no missing doors or broken glass.
issue 1. No fridge. 2. the previous owner installed a new main drain pipe – pvc pipe that collects dirty water from sink in the kitcken, tub, toilet… It's in one room in the bsmt. it's about 4 inches radius. vertical from ceiling to flooring. the walls behind it are drywalled and painted. in the ceiling is drywalled. but collector pipes from the sink, tub, toiled are also exposed. they grew out of the drywalled ceiling into the main drain pipe. the rest of the area are drywalled.
It nearly look like that the pipes are for decoration. they're painted black. walls behind them are painted red. looks like they were done professionally though. no leaks. the room is fully finished!
I told my realtor that I could get a used fridge just so appraiser will have no issue with that. But what should I do with the drain pipes that are coming out of the ceiling and a main drain pipe standing like a decor in one of corner of the room in the bsmt. oh also the sump pump pipe and hole is sitting in another finished room next door.
We reckon the previous owner was a hispanic family and had the bsmt separated into rooms so people can sleep in there.
please advice.
we still like the house. but we just want to make sure that we can still get FHA loan. we got pre-approved for a FHA loan in VA.
thanks
