I got the inspection report back stating roof was approximately 8 years old (supposed to be new), furnace approximlatey 15 years old, AC unit 10, soffits hanging down, rotted door threshold, bedroom door that doens't latch, front door that has gaps to the exterior, electrical ground cut, a/c condenser line broken, basement foundation cracked, counter tops lift off (not sealed to cabinet), toilet loose, driveway and walkway leading to front door cracked, iron sewer line leaking, bathroom sink has leak in pipe (in the line, under the sinkbowl) and a few other items.I know not everything on the inspection report is a big deal, and inspection reports always have items on there, but..................... what concerns me is the fact that the roof was marketed to me as being new and is not, its approximately 8 years old.... the HVAC was marketed to me as being under 5 years old and its not...... its over 5 years old (with issues), counter tops weren't sealed to cabinets,soffits were supposed to be repaired (according to the scope of work) , and the foundation is cracked (which could or could not be a big deal).  

Between the wood rot, hoodrats, bugs, mildew, MASSIVE BLACK MOLD, water leaks everywhere, dog poo, voodoo man, roof falling in, no HOA reserves, and she said they don't know how they are going to pay the water bill.  

I have been striking it dry with my MF searches local to me, so i have been expanding my thoughts and wanted to get your opinion.

I was worried that it was getting a bit dry.

Tile work is not just tile work, it is backer, leveling, different grout for different uses, tile saw and tools, sealer, and time to dry at east stage.

Obviously not as quick and dry as we would hope.

Is this another sign of the discount-level inventory drying up?

I really like the idea of owning this property because it is in a nice location, I can collaborate with my Dad's beach house in case any renter needed additional rooms or wants to rent out 2 houses next to each other (my Dad said he would rent his place out too) , decent sized lawn on the property, and the house needs to be fixed up on the interior (wood paneling/new dry wall, old carpets, out dated furniture, and older appliances).

Now, the seller's agent is simply not returning any correspondence, leaving me little option.Per the CAR contract - it's pretty cut-and-dry about pursuing small claims court, and without good faith reasons -they can be liable for treble (triple) damages as well as legal fees incurred on my end.It's not a huge sum of money, but given that it's mine, and that the seller will be liable for legal fees associated - I'd like to talk to a lawyer to make sure I'm proceeding correctly.

We put the stain in a small handheld paint sprayer,   And he put a coat of stain on the bricks while I followed behind with a dry towel, wiping any drips.
