Plumbing- corroded cast iron drain lines, corroded copper piping that leaks, sink trap leaks, sink popup ups that are non-functional.

The existing system is pretty old cast iron except some ABS pipe towards the front of the property before going into the street.

I felt better, and he's a member of the iron workers union.

Ironically from my observation it’s the same clueless people who believe anonymity is somehow going to provide asset protection that are most reckless in their business.

What you are looking for is:1. what is the line made of - PVC preferred (newer), cast iron solid, clay would be a major concern2. are there trees in the front yard with roots growing into the line.

Just keep in mind that if it is an older house with cast iron pipes and you lift the foundation, those pipes are likely to break and need replacing - partial or a complete repipe. 

I may never buy a building with iron pipes again Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I have several irons in the fire and do own/operate a property management company.

I also hate 100 year old cast iron stacks.
