Damage Due to Mold
A property may be conveyed with mold if the mold was not caused by a surchargeable condition, including Mortgagee neglect, fire, flood, earthquake, hurricane, or for condominiums, by boiler explosion.
However, even if the mold was not caused by a surchargeable condition, the failure by the Mortgagee to take reasonable action to remediate the cause of the mold and complete any other required preservation and protection actions related to minimizing further mold damage prior to conveyance of the property, qualifies as Mortgagee neglect and, is surchargeable.
