Possible Black Mold Between 1st And 2nd Floor

Got a question for you guys. Well I have a friend who we have a done a lot of exterior work for. My father a couple years back had fixed a leaky pipe between there floors about 2 years ago. Then they patched the drywall and everything. Well since then they have started having allergic reactions. well to make a long story short after they had allergic reactions and my dad having asthma attacks they have been to the doctor for allergen tests and it comes back to black mold. Well the house is 2000sqft bottom floor and 1800sqft upstairs. Well how complicated would it be and costly to remove the mold? Or would you seal up all the cracks and caulk the light fixtures and everything to keep from allowing the mold out and then sell the house and let someone with more money deal with it. Note this is in a neighborhood that the lowest house sells for $225,000. Resale is ok in the neighborhood but I could go in and do a lot of interior upgrades, painting, molding, lighting upgrades to help sell the house faster. Please let me know I have a feeling the mold remediation would be expensive even though I have not had tests to confirm that it is up there we would like to know how to estimate it before we tear into. Thanks guys could really use the help on this one!!!!
