Tyra out that the brick layers had forgot to secure the angle iron above the garage properly resulting in a half inch wide crack at the corners of the garage doors.

Ironically neither I nor the seller realized it backed up on a small canal since we were both out of state.

I do run my business with an iron fist though :)

And, as i said, you can get the more expensive solution bars (Which can be quite lovely, honestly, if you shop around--igot some nice wrought iron designs for a historic home) that have the release, so the industry has a wide range to adapt to the laws of that municipality.

Hope to have a iron clad lease agreement by the time we close and get 'em rented!

The plumbing could have lead supply lines and galvanized supply lines, and the waste lines could be clay, "Orangeburg" (Black coal-tar impregnated fiber piping), and even cast iron waste can develop cracks especially if the lines go unused for long periods.

Sounds like it's just ironing out some of the challenges you mentioned above. 

In fact, that house is .7 miles away from very big attractions like Iron Hill brewery, Big Fish Grille, the kids museum,  trampoline park, baseball stadium, Kooma Sushi and many other riverfront attractions.

They had a designer flat iron for about 300.

That cast iron pre-1900 sewer pipe is past the end of its useful life so it's good to know if you are going to need to replace that right away or not.
