[quote=Anonymous]You do know on the sale of any home built before 1978 you have to give that standard Absestos warning any how.

My 1955 old house only had absestos tile in my small basement and some absesto white insulation in crawlspace under house. My basement had wall to wall carpet. How is that worth any money off house.

Funny part is after 12 years my house got flooded in Hurricane sandy. My wall to wall basement carpet was under four fee of salt water over night and I only got water drained a few days later. The salt water disolved the glue. on the tiles and myself and BIL was cutting carpet to throw out we tossed the tiles and EPA clean up was picking up stuff anyhow. Same for white insulation in crawl space. And then to get my FEMA funds after restoration they came back and check whole house absestos and found zero.

Guess what when I sold house in 2019 I still had to do Absestos disclosure. Does not matter there is none.

And by the way my 1955 house had zero absetos when built. Someone renovated basement in the 1960s and put down tile and heating oil company put up insulation on hot water pipes in crawl space since it was not heated in crawl space. Not every house built had absestos.       [/quote]
