Looks like a old patio or room addition that somebody was in the process of
tearing down. The buyer of the house wants to remove it completely. I need help with verbiage on how to write this up... David ![]() ![]()

I think there's an image of a face on the end of the raftertail in the last picture. Creepy!

I think I would say something like: Covered porch at rear of home is old and deteriorated, and is a safty hazard (from what I see in the pictures, steps at door, exposed seal plate bolts, etc.). An injury could occur if not corrected. Recommend a qulified building contractor inspect porch and repair or replace as needed. After that, I think it's a discussion between buyer and seller whether or not to tear it down.

David, My comment above is just a real quick blurb. I have to run out now but I'm sure others will chime in. Good luck!

David, are you looking for another word for Shrine? You should just describe it and call out hazards as Robert suggested. But it might be wise to suggest a call to National Enquirer, could be revenue property. John Kogel www.allsafehome.ca Last edited by jkogel; 7/29/08 at 2:24 AM.. |

Rafter tail, sub-fascia, fascia, fly rafter, whatever you want to call it.....It is creepy. Also looks like it is coming down the next time someone beathes on it.
