So the house we are trying to buy has some mold in the basement. The inspectors opinion is that it is surface mold d/t moisture in the basement and the house (and basement) being closed up for a year (estate sale), it was on the furniture in the basement and is on the walls of the stairwell, appx 15 sq ft. It isn't black its a yellow orange color. Our realtor doesnt think its an issue either, however my parents are concerned about it being throughout the house. The seller doesn't want to pay to clean it up--wants to sell as is. To have someone come in and do an air quality test and clean it up would cost thousands ($2-3000 easily) which we aren't willing to do.
Would you buy it and clean the mold yourself and feel comfortable knowing it was just in the basement?
