We walked through a home for sale today in which the property inspection had showed moisture under the house...not surprising with all the rain we've had recently. It certainly warrants further inspection. These leaks may seem (or even be) minor right now, but when left unattended lead to expensive repairs down the road. Over the years we've seen this over and over. A $300 repair four years ago would have eliminated a $6,000 repair now.
When you find water in the house where there shouldn't be any, take care of it now while it's still a small repair. If you look at it as an investment, fixing small leaks early has an return on investment of a few thousand percent.
