What to check on this one
- Get 4-point inspection + wind-mitigation report; 1941 home needs detailed roof/structural review.
- Verify flood zone via FEMA map; confirm elevation certificate requirement if in AE/VE.
- Check plumbing type (likely cast-iron or galvanized); budget for potential replacement.
- Request roof age/condition documentation; insurers balk at homes over 15-20 years.
- Inspect foundation for settling/cracks typical of 1941 construction; get structural engineer opinion if needed.
- Confirm workshop structure is permitted; verify septic/well functionality if applicable to property.
Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
