I'm just waiting on the final offer paperwork to start lending process.Half my units have come from off market sources and half have come from MLS; however, my MLS purchases have been for the most part aging listings which little competition. 

The age of the shingle roof is 20 years ++ and it might last another year or two depending how bad the weather gets.The contractor (sellers contractor) says they will issue a letter that the roof have atleast 5 years life remaining. 

I haven't seen any updates for over 3 years on this site.Any info please reply,Thanks and Blessings
