the house with the missing gas furnace and AC was insured but with the butcher job of the removal and cut lines and ducts, I'm sure it could not be repaired for $5,000 but it was listed as insured.And other cases there have been relatively minor flaws, well less than $5,000 and the property is listed as uninsured.And then there is the third type of property, where I marvel how the property was financed FHA the first time as there are clear major defects that would be rejected by an FHA appraiser, so how did it become a HUD repo?
