I was in the market to buy a home, so I approached Broker Jonathan Lief, who also happens to own the company Aventura Real Estate Inc. He showed me a house which i liked, it happened to be his listing too. Upon entering the property it smelled kinda moldy, he told me it was just the smell of new paint. So I proceeded to put an offer. The next day the offer was accepted. In the inspections which were carried out 3 days later, by Mr. Lief's designated inspector, i insisted to also perform a mold inspection, and Mr. Lief refused. He told me it would cost me extra money, he basically talked me out of it. After the closing I discovered the house had black mold, the estimate cost of repair to remove the black mold would cost anywhere between $15, 000-$20, 000. I am sure Mr. Lief had prior knowledge of the mold, and concealed that fact from me. No wonder he went out of his way to talk me out of doing a mold inspection.
