Are they wood or cement?

Would love to get some thoughts from anyone out there with property parcel & tax experience.We're about to close on a duplex in Harper Woods, MI and we learned late in the process that the duplex actually sits on two parcels of land, so our purchase agreement was updated to reflect this.

I have three homes in the Alamo Heights area and surrounding area (78209) and in my experience garage conversions are more popular in this neck of the woods.

How bad does the basement flood, and when (ask the renters).Plus the example you provided has paint peeling off, splitting dry wood, and siding in need of repairs.And is that a paint color you want to rent.It looks like it might be a "Matchy Matchy" block with similar roof line houses.Look at the home to the right of it, soft colors with a white trim, looks much more "CLEAN" to me like it would draw a better renter, and a few dollars more a month.If it's a "matchy matchy" look for the most visually appealing home that matches and base new color choices on that.Dose the rest of the neighborhood have "Jail doors" on the front?

Wood is 8X as much as it was 3 years ago.

Old appearing stains and/or minor deterioration to wood was observed around one or more plumbing pipes in the crawlspace.5.
