Greetings to All.......

Another stunning day in Paradise! I hope you didn't lose $ on the Super Bowl!!!

Thanks so much in advance for your time!

Just back from Austin...got into contract and the inspection called out some issues. Real Estate is done very differently in Texas vs Austin.... hence my questions.

What is the life expectancy for a roof given the hail/climate? How much $ to replace with a good quality composition for an 1800 SF home?

The oven has no venting mechanism....Id want to vent through the attic rather than a recirculating model....what trades person does this and whaty can I expect to pay to remedy appropriately? Sounds like this is original from consturction 2008 but really hard to believe....

Illhave more questions and will be looking for various tradespeople once I close on the property but these are the immediate hurdles for now.

Again....thank you allever so much for any insight and advice....soooo soooo different here in California!!!

Have a good eveing All....Cheers Denice!
