Are there any specific "gotchas" for that area that I should be aware of besides age of roof and age of HVAC? Is the "grey plastic pipe" issue something I need to specifically check for? Are there specific repair permits I or the home inspector should be checking for?

Thanks all!

So many folk with "newly built" homes have continual complaints. Between 466- 466A are the best and well built. Ours 2005 still has a great roof, despite all the replacements arounds. But hey its your choice, new and flimsy, older and sturdy. Sounds like people too !!!!
