wow... so this is so upsetting. I'm a brand new, first time home buyer here and it looks like i've fallen into a potential mess. The building is fine to the naked eye, but after having read all of this i'm terribly concerned. Can anyone recommend someone that is truly knowledgeable on the subject? Any ideas on the cost of a thorough analysis? My inspector said it was fine, it just needs to be treated. So much for that. And of course the real estate agents didn't say a word about it. who can i trust?
