Hmmm,

Not one response on the mould issue, how interesting.  Do I take it that the remainder of this forum is of a mind to simply hire some poor joe to fix their mess?

Come on now, someone must have some experience with mould...! Spill tha beans wouldya?

I contacted three mould specialists and they each quoted 30-50k, (if the roof doesnt have to come off,)  to gut and treat a 1500 sq ft max 1 1/2 storey place like queen mary.  One company actually suggested getting a crew of guys off the street and giving them a dumpster and dust masks as being the best option!!!  I'm afraid my sense of proprietry is beyond that shit. (WSIB would crucify me too!)

So can one presume that if the savvy owner doesn't like the price it fetches at auction he just redeems?  Makes sense to me when sometimes the bid gets up closer to market value or at least assessed value.

Anyone know how they managed that as all the tenders were opened?  Would love to know the story behind it...

soo...

What were they thinking?

I went there, I walked the town, I looked at similar MLS listings, I found out the price they were asking for that old restaurant and I didn't even bother with a bid.

6 inch of mildew crawling up the windows of the addition...!  Eeeew, must be that big hole in the roof.

So, anyone had experience cleaning up serious mould issues?  My first thought is gut, treat, maybe paint and then refinish.  As for soggy additions, I don't see much choice but to tear them off altogether.

I'm curious as to what they went for also. The restaurant didn't look to be in such bad shape but the layout sucked

Thanks Dave,

I appreciate your input.

I wonder though, has anyone heard of a case where someone has actually been given grief for building a wee place to play in?

Happy hunting...

Im here to have fun and make some money so as i'm new and will want some help i'm sure i'll get the ball rolling by giving a little.

Quinte West has lain abandoned for many years.  At some point someone has broken the glass in the front door and gained entry.  I didn't see much harm in looking inside. The house has a pond at least three feet deep in the basement (Broken walls?) and the house is FULL of Mould.  (Yuk..!)  The ceilings have all fallen down due to the roof leaking.  The floors are covered with vermiculite insulation which has fallen from the attic.  Vermiculite is touchy stuff, two brands were readily available.  One of these contains asbestos.  Not cool stuff.

The house might be fixed but more likely it's knock the walls down time and push it into the hole.  Cleaning up the insulation might be expensive.  Typically removing from an intact attic is 15k.

Anyone have a clue as to lot values there?

Happy hunting guys....

Hi Guys,

I'm new here and am happy to see that there are people in here willing to talk and share ideas even though we are all basically in competition with each other.

I'm grateful to those of you who are happy to share, thank you.

If I might interpose in this current subject briefly a question has come up for me.  Namely, if a person were to build a cabin/bunky/hunt camp/cottage or what have you on a piece of property without permits what might be the repercussions.  What would be the likely repercussions?

Glad to meet you all and hope to enjoy some good stuff while we beat each other up...!

Best regards and happy hunting......

Good day fellow bargain hunters,

I've decided to come out of the woodwork and join the fray.

Happy hunting and thanks for all the good bad and indifferent advice...!
