Like Dan, we have a standardized paint (white clay by Behr in eggshell, but SW will mix it NP) Thank you for the suggestions Marcus.

I'm advising folks to keep a close eye on Clay, Cicero, North Syracuse, the neighborhoods including and surrounding Eastwood, and the neighborhoods by the university.

No, you can jet and cut even with clay tiles as long as your plumber knows what s/he's doing.

Nobody ever tests for lead-based paint in homes built before 1978, because once you test you have to disclose.

Take up the floor from inside the house and excavate the clay and replace it with something sandier that percolates better.

Looking for any guidance on any equity based lenders out there?

I never choose anything based on price.

Fix gutters, extend  gutters at least 10 ft haul in dirt around foundation if needed the best soil for a foundation is a heavy clay type  , cut back trees if needed .

From what I’m seeing, it looks like (and should continue to look like) the clay, Cicero, and Liverpool areas are expected to get some of the higher appreciation in the coming years due to close proximity to Micron (Zip Codes 13039, 13041, 13088, 13090).
