What to check on this one

  • Verify exact flood zone designation and obtain elevation certificate for lake-adjacent property
  • Confirm roof age and get 4-point inspection; 1997 home may need wind-mitigation cert for insurance
  • Review HOA covenants for waterfront restrictions, dock use rules, and rental limitations
  • Inspect plumbing for polybutylene (pre-1995 risk); verify Rinnai tankless water heater warranty status
  • Confirm sunroom addition has permits and is included in square footage calculation

Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
