Found mold in the crawlspace

Buying a house, just did the inspection. They found 'white fuzzy growth' in the crawlspace. The seller says it’s just mildew from the rain. Should I run away from this deal or is it easy to clean up? I have kids with asthma.

Lindy, the easiest way to have this resolved is by having a proper mold inspection. A certified inspector will be able to tell you if the discovery is indeed mold. Keith Jean-Pierre Managing Principal The Dapper Agents Operations In: NY, NJ, FL & CA
