Got Mold? Better check the attic

One of the areas we check during a home inspection is the attic. We're looking for the basics, like insulation, damage to the framing, water leaks, etc, but we're also looking for mold issues. A combination of things can cause mold in the attic. Lack of insulation, humidity, water leaks, condensation to name a few. In this video we encounter painted surfaces in the attic. No one paints the attic for the heck of it. Usually it's a treatment or cover up for fire damage or mold. Here we see mold spots bleeding through the paint. Obviously not professionally cleaned and treated. If you're buying a home, make sure you get a professional home inspection to help detect issues like these.
