Also metal door frames may help. 

Typically there is a metal plate between concrete and raw wood to avoid the rot.

I read a couple of books, listen to podcast, YouTube video but so much information overwhelm me, I some time I just feel like taking a metal break.

We are renovating a home in the Catskills and stuck on what railing to install on our outdoor deck—cable or metal.  

A nice touch is to provide some nice metal shower curtain hanging rings already installed on the rod and a nice translucent milky colored shower curtain that fits, brand new sitting on top of the toilet tank waiting for them when they move in- so they can take a shower and not have water go all over the floor for the first few days.

The other thing I don't get is the concern over the metal frame?

It ended up costing us $50,000 in additional expenses across 25 windows because once we changed the windows, we had to bring the framing around the windows up to 2023 code - which required removing the already installed windows and reframing each window down to how the studs were strapped with metal straps down at the floor.  

I want to use my expertise for my father and stretch the dollars to make additional changes like new front door, adding metal awning, and generally improve the street appeal.
