No Mold...Still a pain in my rear.

So here's the verdict on the mold. It is exactly what we said it was and what our house inspector said it was. It is old, it is dead. There is no moisture problem. The air quality in the house and the attic is very good.

What's the problem then you say? The problem is that the buyer's agent is still saying that it needs to be taken care of. They brought in Trembley builders, THE MOST expensive people in the state of Maine and they said that all of the insulation needs to be removed, all of the wood needs to be cleaned, sealed and then primed and they gave a ROUGH estimate of 5,000. YEAH FRIGGIN' RIGHT is all I have to say to that.

My question is this....the mold expert lady said there WAS NO LIVE MOLD. She said the air quality was GOOD. So WHAT then, needs to be "taken care of"?

So we are getting a second estimate by people that are recommended as good at cleaning mold but are half way sane about their pricing and such. HOWEVER! Just because we are getting a second opinion (AT OUR EXPENSE BY THE WAY!) does not mean I think that we should or am willing to pay ONE CENT of that because there IS NO ISSUE and therefor no need to FIX a NON-ISSUE!

Can you tell I'm super thrilled about the whole situation and not angry at all!?
