Now this is why you ask questions, what has been updated... etc. As for roof, l5 - 18 yrs your covered, but just know no matter how good the roof still is , the insurance company's want a new roof. Its your main protection. The sale of the homes, with roof, appliances, rugs, etc that are older than 10 yrs should reflect a lower price. Also, Bond... plenty of homes that have already had the BOND PAID OFF for pre owned.... then again alot of people are replacing appliances, roofs, just for selling purposes.... so let the sale's agent know... you want new roof, appliances, no bond.... all part of buying a home...

So basically saying make sure the owner spends 50 to 100K so it’s new house at old house prices. They sale news houses way down yonder. Never going fine house under those demands. O, you forgot new paint inside and out, new concrete sidewalks and driveway, and new landscaping. Hard enough to find house in area you prefer now let’s make it impossible.
