I would look into a fiber/cement fascia product similar to James Hardie, this product is incredibly durable but also can be difficult to install due to its weight and fragility - it is very brittle and requires a special blade to cut. 

I have a foundation issue with a house and a brick/cement porch that I want to possibly have redone.  

Why is the wiring in steel conduit; is the building cement block to withstand hurricanes (???)

Subsequently there have been others to cement and clarify the court's position.I agree that it wouldn't hold up to a constitutional challenge.

Because the house sits on cement blocks, not to mention the 1 bedroom addition is on 4x8 on edge, the center seam is showing plenty of water damage from leaks along, what I would guess, is nearly the entire center line.

An OOS investor that had a property in KC was saying on a bp thread about a month ago of a disgruntled maintenance worker of theirs poured cement down into the sewers of the property. 

I know it's different in other areas though.Also, obviously there are no inspections... so you don't know if there are appliances, whether the roof leaks, the AC works, they poured cement down the drains just to be a PITA, or what!  

Second question: Its a modular home on a brick foundation (I think on a cement slab) and is 1340 sf. 

With cement backed board and redgard underneath at a minimum. 

I am a dentist with an S-corp for my practice so I am hoping to utilize rental incomes to show a loss and bring down my taxable income.I chose the 10K/mo arbitrarily as a number that would pay for future mortgage payments on a home in the Bay.
