Water service has lead pipes and they should be replaced. Plumbing is 80 years old. The house needs to be treated for mold because of floods. Sump pump does not work. The wooden frame around the windows and doors is rotten. Air conditioning is not working. The house is bug infestated and it also needs deratization. Roof above the additions is leaking as well as chimney flashing. The house needs to have majority of drywall replaced, electricity fixed. Plumbing redone. It needs a lot of updating. The addition in the back needs a lot of attention. All windows are old and should be replaced. The house has newer roof and driveway but the garage is structurally in poor condition.
