It did its job decades ago but so did flip phones.Architectural shingles look a million times better.Here the cost to source 3 tab is more than architectual.Nails should be long enough to penetrate the sheathing (unless in exposed finished areas)You have to account for sheathing 5/8"-3/4"Roofing 1/4" per layer minimumPlus any underlayment (ice and water + starter shingle)I would most likely use 1-3/4" nail for 2nd layer architectural.Most roofs old or new are vented somehow.

I grew up learning to be debt averse and it's been a struggle undoing that learning in favor of embracing good debt.Also, I know I should be more business minded as far as my investments are concerned, but tough to disassociate myself sometimes since I've had some for so long and tenants are all good and set.
