Shin'enKan

I'll be docenting Sat and Sun. Hopefully I'll still have time to see most of the houses.

This afternoon I saw an inspector on the roof of the house. Am I correct in assuming that when developers buy a house to tear down they don't spend money on an inspection? I'm hoping this is a good sign.

Of course this also explains the carpenters on the roof Sunday morning

Well, I went by the house. It is set back further than the adjacent houses because of the carport, I couldn't say for sure but it's at least 50'. I'm sure the brick wall would help with the traffic noise but without being inside the house it's very hard to say one way or the other. At our house on Richmond the traffic didn't bother me until we had our son. But of course the house was much quieter with the double-paned, low-e, laminated glass. Also, a BUNCH of noise came through the old front door so once we had it replaced with a solid core door that also improved the sound reduction. And since we spent very little time in the formal living and dining rooms that kept things quiet too. For reference, the house was set back 25' from Richmond, which has three lanes of traffic each way.

I hope that answers your questions.

You don't want to live there, unless you like pounding traffic noise at all times of the day. Needs to be closer to that $200k mark if they want to sell it. $250k is just too much for an AS-IS, where-is, property.

I agree, the Memorial Drive location should bring that price down, but what an awesome house!
