I did replace ALL the ancient dust coated hydronic baseboard heaters with new ones (got them 1/2 price).

@William MeroneThis day and age, checks of any kind are ancient and a waste.

I once had someone go through the roll-off and haul 3 dead water heaters out that had been in the basement, and an ancient dead central heating unit.

If ancient, maybe just roll with what was done and warn them for next time.

I have this image in my mind of ancient Rome and some dude knows a friend who needs to sell a feild fast...

I would rather see $150/door on a property with brand new mechanicals than $250/door on a property with ancient heating/electrical systems.

Who knows but if you are paying anything near a 6% commission, you are being fooled and lied to by an ancient model broker who doesn't adapt to marketing efficiencies.

(yup, I am)...the story is about how this guy discovers a guitar behind a waterfall in an ancient secret and abandoned cave.

If you're talking about Bozeman in the 90's, then that is just ancient history, before the town was "discovered" by REI's.

The theory behind brrrrrrrrr (new name, ancient concept) is that it's offset by you putting that money to work in some productive way that earns more money than you are paying to have access to that capital.
