What's behind that door, in the garage, how's the mechanicals look, is their water stains anywhere on the ceiling, etc. 

The Condensation drain line was plugged up and managed to leak through the ceiling onto the second floor on the home. 

My advice is follow the formula and always have a set purchase amount ceiling, never go over it and never get sucked into the hype and continue to bid.

These buildings typically have large rooms, wide corridors and high ceilings, making them ideal for an ALF. 

I've recently been getting ceiling paints that go on pink and dry white to make it easier to see what spots were missed.

Now, everytime we turnover a downstairs unit, we tear out the lathe and plaster bathroom ceiling and screw up pvc panels for the ceiling to ensure quick and easy access for when we do have and plumbing issues.

They could be looking at the space to check legal egress, ceiling heights, window location and size, fire separation between units/hazardous areas (like boiler rooms, etc.) or a whole host of other things.

Still one of the tallest-ceiling, lightest and brightest Seattle basements I've ever been in!

We added value by re-doing the whole house, installed vinyl floorings, rebuilt 2 and a half bathrooms, re-painted the whole house, replaced all the hardware in the house, installed new lighting, ceiling fans, re-painted the kitchen, and completely remodeled the upstairs.
