Why we’re different buyers

Had an inspection today of a property we may renovate.

The broker was reassuring me that the owner had partially re-piped the building with copper.

Unlike almost any other buyer, this does not matter at all to us.

Why?

Because we almost always repipe during our renovations (and do everything else).

In fact, very little about the physical condition of a building matters to us.

We’re always much more interested in what a building can become than in what it is now.
