[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think of it as an older house (think 90-100 year old DC row houses)>>they are solid brick on four sides, I think they could withstand any natural disaster...so very good bones. But don't get started on the plumbing![/quote] Uh, masonry is terrible in an earthquake. http://www.iitk.ac.in/nicee/EQTips/EQTip12.pdf Just marketing speak, as if solid timber rather than fire resistant engineer lumber makes up for the lead paint, asbestos, inadequate plumbing, out of code electrical, and draft house. But bones are good: people we are buying a house not a med school skeleton. This should go in that MRID ridiculousness thread. [/quote] It was a good and reaonsalby inforamtive thread until you came along. But there are idiots everywhere. [/quote] Hi Realtor, nice comeback![/quote]
