Yea, maybe just a lot of folks used to living in 100+ year old houses?

I’m not an expert by any means, but I would be concerned about that much water in a 1950s basement if it were my place.

Never head of conproco before…am I a new, or is more of a commercial/professional only product?

Buses hitting potholes make the best noises. The windows rattle.

Potholes to the left of me, bike lane to the right...

When I run past there I keep thinking "what if I untie it bit by bit..."

Of course the sideways boat is further up the river and has been there for years.

It looks like a organized version of 380 auction!

We have Iron Lung Depot in Cheswick tho...

If you buy this house I’d definitely get that post inspected. Older support posts are hallow steel posts and this one has obvious signs of rust which could lead to problems down the road.

Ideally you’d have a footing poured to raise the bottom of the replacement concrete-filled post off of the ground to avoid the replacement rusting.

B and H photo has been sending me parts quickly. Like 2-3 days from NJ warehouse. They're pretty decent for SSDs etc. Not today today but close.

Sidewalk chairs are for saving a spot for the parade. Parking chairs must be on the street. Those are not to be honored.

Might also see if the folks at https://pittsburghmodular.com/ have any recomendations?

I live in a home built in 1865 half of it is dirt and stone the other half is cinderblock. Lets just say my furnace, hot water tank, washer, and dryer all all sitting on blocks 6in off the ground

Why isn't the owner mentioned? This person's name should be on the chopping block, not our tax dollars. It just seems like the article goes out of its way to NOT mention the 1 person that is actually responsible.

At the very least, they should subject to the same taxes and fees imposed on hotels. Therefore, the community has some positive impact to offset lower property values, nuisance, and lack of affordable housing

Nah. I’m guessing ESL, because nobody talks like that, and the word itself doesn’t make any sense in that context.

Don't forget you can always ask the seller to fix things when you're making an offer. I wouldn't skimp on inspection either.

I assume that means they want to make sure if they go out of their way to pick one up from a library that it will actually be there to rent at that time.

I don't think that's impractical at all.

At one of my old jobs, I constantly dealt with short-term and long-term rental owners, and far too many of them lived not just outside the neighborhood, but outside the state. Those folks were doing a huge disservice to the renters and to the community at large. They had all but abdicated any responsibility that comes with homeownership, but still were allowed to profit from it and artificially shrinking the housing market, to boot.

That’s not a jack post. That’s the post put in place when the home was built to support a steel beam.

Jack posts are put in later to prop up a saggy beam or floor

Good stuff.

It every one is saying "it's not my problem". Someone can find the owner without a problem but no one wants to. Everyone put their finger on their nose and says "not it" until a court forces them to accept responsibility.

Hey, hey, hey. This is how I warsh my basement floors for Spring redding up.

hell yeah. i was just talking about them at my gym. i miss that chicken.

Premise is faulty.

Local media is very soft when dealing with all EMS and Fire services, to the point of not even reporting on things like Brentwood losing their EMS.

Local media is also very soft on new car dealers because of how much they pay for ads on the local market.

Local media is soft on local media... Bill Hillgrove slams his car into a grocery store at 2x the DUI limit, walks in to pick up a prescription and you have to dig for the article because the local media is busy talking about how he still calls games at 82. Don Cannon freaks out on air and no other stations covered it. (Little factoid, that nights show is the only one missing from the WTAE archive.)

Nobody else? Disagree.
