Mold Inspection? Seller doesn't want it.
I am in a rural area buying a cheap ~$25k property, 2bed 1bath and I am unsure if the seller denying a mold inspection contingency is normal.
Yes the property is cheap. The seller didn't want to include a mold inspection contingency because fixing it would cost more than the property is worth. I have been in the property and there are no obvious signs of mold, like a bad smell or something. It was inhabited at the time by a family member of the seller and kept pretty clean.

@Caleb Taylor with a property in that price range, the seller usually is selling it "as-is". Depending on what your strategy is for the property, it sounds like the seller doesn't want to have a bunch of contingencies on a property that is cheap anyways.
