[quote=Anonymous]We bought a clean fixer-upper, and it took us several years to get through the list. I can’t imagine buying an icky house. There’s never any break. You both work all week. One person watches the kids on Saturday and cleans while the other fixes the house. Everything takes longer than planned. Three MINIMUM I’d require done before moving in are: Remove trash. Anything structural/leaking. Hazard cleanup. (Mold, etc.) Refinish or recarpet floors. Take everything to the studs.* *We once had the most nothing moisture problem. Something leaked on carpet. We did all the things you do. Took off moldings. Brought in professional fans. We later opened the wall for something else and found mold. **If your kids are small, you’d need to keep/replace drywall in their bedrooms and any room they play spend time in unattended. Even a second. [/quote]
