asbestos flooring in a basement

polishqueen

My daughter and her husband are looking to buy a house and have looked at one with old asbestos tile in the basement that got wet when a steam heat pipe broke years ago. It is in pieces in some spots and looks bad. Would they pull it all up or would it be better to just cover it with wood and carpet. I am concerned with the water damage and the fact it is broken. The realtor said it passed inspection, but they have a two year old and she has allergies already. It is a very large basement and it would be costly to have it all removed. HELP!!!
