Next time you get a chance, take the exterior pics during spring or early summer when the grass is green and all the trees have leaves.  

The older had records of trees cut down and a reputation unchallenged.

IE from the crook in the tree 3 chains to the blah blah blah.metal detector for the pins is excellent advice for late century plats@Mark Beekman Big question is existing housing stock selling for the same or less than you can replace a home for..

Account Closed, have you heard the Chinese proverb that begins: the best time to plant a tree...? 

I am just saying it's not my cup of tea.

We did one built in 1830The years of plumbing retrofits & the tree root infested sewer pipe was a nightmare !!!

Matt, purchase price is $170,000, All 3 units need carpet, paint, minor repairs, the foundation had a tree growing into it which broke and rotated a 2 foot section, outside needs painted and eventually siding replaced.

Im currently dealing with this now so this came from the plumber He is trying to fix a drain, not hot and cold supplies, there should be no supply connections to his drains.But the trenchless solution will only work between two points with no branch arms, if branches exist, they need to be hollowed out later and it's really tricky.Also, trenchless epoxy liner is not a good match for a tree root penetration issue, because for that to work optimumly you need to have the interior of the pipe rimmed round and jetted clean prior to applying the liner, or else the liner will assume the shape of whatever debris is inside the pipe, if it's a chunk of tree root, then your liner will take the shape of that tree root.

Along the lines of what Jon said, not real sure what grows in that area, but if you could do Christmas Trees or Pumpkins, those are a couple things that would be seasonal and pull in some good cash.

I wanted to keep the focus on the forest, not the trees, so to speak.To drive home the point on the availability of seller financing and to take a peak at a couple of the "trees" in the forest, I'm talking with an investor who his liquidating his portfolio.
