How Finding Mold Can Affect The Sale of Your Home

4/21/2022 (Permalink)

You've decided to sell your home and are ready to put it on the market. Your walls are touched up, you've removed the clutter and every surface is shining. As you prepare to put the for sale sign in the yard, don't overlook one important detail that could seriously hamper your efforts to sell: mold.

Mold exists all around us and is present everywhere indoors and out. Mold thrives and grows in areas where moisture can accumulate, such as bathrooms and basements where there may be undetected water leaks.  Because certain types of mold have the potential to cause health issues, potential homebuyers will be understandably cautious about purchasing a home where mold has developed. 

As you prepare your home for the market, carefully examine areas where mold may be growing. Pay attention to musty odors and address any sources of moisture that may be inviting mold to grow.

If you are concerned that your home may have a mold problem, call the restoration specialists at SERVPRO of Joliet at 815-436-5735. Our trained experts will inspect and assess your property. If mold is found, our technicians have the training, tools, and expertise to take care of your mold problem safely and efficiently.
