The wrong assumption South Bay buyers make most often:
"The seller would have disclosed it if there was mold."
Sellers disclose what they know. They don't always know what's behind the walls, inside the crawl space, or growing in the HVAC system of a home they've lived in for years. Long-term exposure can make elevated mold conditions feel like baseline — something people stop noticing because it's always been there.
In San Jose, where the median home price makes every purchase a significant financial commitment, the standard of due diligence should match the stakes. A certified mold inspection before closing adds one more layer of certainty to a decision that most buyers are already stretching their finances to make.
