Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
There were mice in the attic at some point. Fresh traps, and one small set of turds. No other sign of them.
Not much insulation in the attic, and the windows are a bit old (still vinyl though)
House needs paint badly as well as new shutters.
One of the floor joists under the kitchen not sitting on the beam (cut short behind the staircase going down), should be an easy fix. Rotten floor right behind the sill of the front door (looks like a bit of water damage that never got fixed). Can't see it from below, but not too worried about it. Beam/sill looks/feels fine.
Furnace/burner is ancient, same with pressure tank for the well. Going to see about getting them to put in a propane furance and get a 500gal underground one put in or something (I don't know anything about heating systems). I'd rather go to propane and have a gas stove/dryer. But we'll see.
Septic is original, but hasn't seen much use so it's probably fine, but who knows. Home inspector checks that out (no Title V in NH).
Location is perfect. Cul-de-sac and set back quite a ways from the road.
Not going nuts over anything until I get more information, but we both like it. The big items are if the septic is ok, and if they want to do the furance/pressure tank.
