28. This is why we bought a block house built on a slab in FL with metal studs.
But even that doesn't guarantee against mold or improper drainage, etc.

We have friends in a nearby neighborhood who had mold develop in their house--they had dealt with migraines for over a year before discovering it. They had to rent another home and have most of the drywall, flooring, etc. ripped out and re-done. It was a HUGE nightmare.

IMO nothing down here should be made out of wood, NOTHING.
