They might require additional premium in order to insure over these issues (which the seller should pay, imo) or they may say "No" and either you would need to agree to accept the risk or the seller would need to fix the problems... because they essentially built over someone else's property -- 3 times!

So my wife and I found a off market house built in the 60s with about 1800 sf.

I'm planning to have a structural engineer to create architectural as-built floor plans for a 2 story mixed use building I own in California.

The kitchen cabinets had not been replaced (but were painted white) since it was built. 

I must have called a dozen local banks here around town without getting any response before finally settling on one.

Also if they are 100K properties and 60 years apart that is silly also (sure a fully rehabbed place is now worth 40K because it was built in 1950).

Equity built up from other means, such as appreciation and mortgage/principle contribution, is free money. 

My only constraint is I work out of towns on Tuesdays and often struggle to get back to OKC by 7pm.

HI Gurus   I encountered a multifamily apartment deal which was built in 1954.
