I’m a sucker for early 20th century, brick 2-3 story buildings in downtowns though!

Since then I have been a full time student (closing in on my bachelors in business marketing), I started my own handyman company that served several investors and am now a full time Realtor with Century 21 in Manteca.

That will filter out the part-timers and hobbyist agents.I'd call around to some of the larger brokerages - Keller Williams, Century 21, Coldwell Banker, etc and get a proposal from them. 

In my opinion, they have been building homes out of wood for centuries.

Right now, I am working on a mid century renovation near a river and beach with money from my self-directed IRA. 

I liked the layout of the house and thought with some small changes the mid-century with the vaulted ceilings could easily become more "modern".

Jacob Howell, with Century 21 is one of the best agents for investors.

@Brian Pulaski Don't worry those numbers are completely inaccurate...nobody can do a full permitted roof replacement with all materials and all labor by a licensed professional for a $150 a square...impossible unless you are getting the materials for free..240 a square would be like the deal of the century and 300 a square is the norm.

If the house is newer, then the need for a water heater, new roof, new driveway, new HVAC, windows, appliances, new plumbing, or new electrical systems would be markedly lower than that of a property built somewhere in the middle of the last century.
