Fire Damage Roof Home Inspection

Hello BP community,

Had my first home inspection performed on a multi-unit property that I want to purchase. The home is located in CNY, was built in 1915 and has layered rocks as foundation. The property has 2 unites, around 1,600 sq ft and is going for $65k

Apparently the roof is less then 7 years old but upon inspection it was discovered the roof has fire damage. The roof was repaired but the chard/burnt framing was left and built over with plywood. The home inspection does not highlight this as red or critical which is surprising to me.

How should I move forward with this? Is this a big red flag? How should I proceed with negotiations?
