Thinking of fixing the broken pipe but it involves taking up the laminate wood flooring.

The problem is with modern homes a lot of times you want to use wood or metal and those materials cost more then stucco and siding.

Imagine moving into a home where you have no way to have privacy on your first evening there.I am a big proponent of the wide slat faux wood horizontal blinds.  

Push gutter up so water isnt dripping and rotting wood on bottom-Garage (unused) needs a foundational support beam.

Close to downtown area, historic structure (wood floors, old built in cabinets), neighborhood is a mix of SF and multis, B class.

Run 1x1 wood strips along the perimeter and wrap the vapor barrier over them a few times.
