Water damage and moisture issues can be anything from a pipe leak to a foundation issue. However, if not taken care of promptly, it can lead to mold growth and cause further structural damage.

If the home inspection report finds water damage or moisture issues, it’s not usually a deal breaker. Once the homeowner hires a water mitigation company to address the damage and prevent further problems, the issue is usually resolved. The cost of water damage varies significantly based on the extent of it. Even if it’s a hefty price tag, it’s worth paying for if it means your health is at risk and circumventing your real estate transaction.
