Basement Water Photographs

If the building that you are considering purchasing has a basement, you need to know if there has ever been water or dampness in the basement.  Most basements have at least a few stains and some rusted metal.  Some basements have a damp odor, although this may only be detectable during the humid summer months.  Click here for information on basement water
