Age of the roof yes, but insurability?
How is a new buyer from outside the area supposed to anticipate a problem that is just now beginning to affect those who have lived here for decades?
It has never occurred to me to call insurance companies to inquire about a new policy for a home that I was only considering. I wonder how a company would react to that, would they send someone right out or would they suggest I move towards purchasing the home before asking them to spend time on it?
