It has a metal roof, but I need to see what the date is that they changed it to that.

The Phase I exposed that long ago the property had been used as a metal foundry (early 1900's) as well as records of underground fuel tanks, which the seller either didn't know about or decided not to tell us about.

When doing a virtual drive by, some things you may want to be on the lookout for are chain link / metal fences around every home, trash / broken furniture out in the streets, stray dogs running around, uncut overgrown grass, broken down cars in people's drive-ways and lawns, bars on the windows of the homes, etc.

So the house is just wood, metal and  stone.BUY IT and rent it to God fearing Christ followers Cause demons won't bother them without Gods permission.Imho

Basically, if you have 2 homes on the neighborhood that get investigated several times of the year for illegal dumping, abandoned vehicles, vacant board orders, or high weeds/grass... it's probably a more distressed area.I also walk the street on Google Earth to ensure that I'm not across the street from a metal recycling facility, railroad tracks, waste water treatment center, landfill, trucking warehouse, etc.Another interesting look is to use Google Maps to find all of the Starbucks in town.

Ok, just returned back from rental, the A/C is running but the technician did some diagnostics and said I have to replace evaporator coil and there may be a leak I have to address, net repair charges is $2500, or the new unit is around ~6k (for 4 ton)(:, Didn't expect this is in month-2 of my journey, I am seriously thinking of taking a home warranty and crossing fingers for a month to go by before I call them And since I am planning to keep this rental for a long time, paying $2500 for repair somehow does not make sense Also I did a rookie mistake, I don't have any clause in my tenancy contract for tenant to Pay service fee, I guess it's a lesson learnt for future

You screw in two metal brackets and click it in.
