Is the beam carrying the deck floor undersized?

We have found when we eat dinner out on our back yard deck we are grateful the sun is setting on the other side of the house.

The house needed all new HVAC, decks, siding, railings, flooring. 

Place will need the carpet pulled, back deck ripped out, a couple of windows, as well as some drywall and bathroom work.Thanks in advance!

And you're spot on -- central AC bids have been coming in very high because of the need to rent / operate heavy duty equipment (from what we've found researching so far, we'd need a diamond blade saw to get through the concrete floor). 

The ups and downs and the stages of each cycle are heavily followed in the commercial space (every big commercial brokerage has a PowerPoint slide in each of their decks about the stage of strip malls, apartments, office, hotel, etc.)Trying to time a market is crazy - but that is not what most people mean when they say they want to "time a market."

To damage it the tenants would pretty much have to burn it or take a razor blade to it to scrape off the picture of the wood (don't worry though, they will find a way) The rents range in the 800-1000 range and I would classify it as a B/C class building.

You can even find them decked out with moonroofs, leather, etc.
