Letter: ‘Pristine’ Home Is A Lemon

My husband and I moved here from California six months ago to be closer to our daughter who is expecting our first grandchild. We purchased a home in Post Falls that appeared to be the perfect home in pristine condition. Little did we know what lurked inside this home. We paid top dollar for our home but shortly after we moved in we knew something was terribly wrong. Lo and behold, we find out the prior owners had allowed their dogs to urinate throughout the entire home and we do mean entire. The level of ammonia in the home was making us ill. Not only was it totally disgusting, it was a health hazard. Apparently these people had paid a professional to cover up the odor while it was up for sale. We love almost everything about Idaho except for the fact that their are no ramifications for people who do things like this/Barbara Maclsaac, Post Falls, letter to the Coeur d'Alene Press editor. More here.
