Hello, I noticed the following on my house today (6 years old). Is this mold? Does it need to be removed?

That looks catastrophic!
The question shouldn’t be “Does the mold need to be removed” but rather “Does the house need to be torn down?”

I wouldn’t feel safe going back there, but to each their own.
For me, it’s okay! Our summer house in Serbia is a disaster. But my wife is giving me a hard time right now! She says, “Ivo, in Serbia it’s fine! But in Germany, those 3cm (1.2 inches) corners at the entrance just won’t do.”

Maybe you should listen to your wife more often.
