Yup, still a whole lot of nothing from the bank on the offer. I didn't bother getting the roof bid, I decided I made the offer so I'm in no matter what it is so I might as well wait until I find out it was actually accepted rather than waste time I could be spending at the Bungalow.
I also decided I think it's timber framed. I can see boxed in corners in both outside walls in the dining room and one in the living room. Also, I remember the second floor joists were mortice and tenon into rather large beams, at least in the exposed dining room ceiling. I also have one photo of an "attic space" (along the side of the house) where it appears there's a timber along the base, then a knee wall built on top to create the rest of the outside wall and support the roof.
ALSO, it looks like the "exposed rafter tails" aren't really-next to each rafter (which clearly ends atop the top plate) are smaller 2x4ish sized boards which project outside. I imagine these are the "rafter tails" you see exposed on the overhangs. Which means they are probably that much easier to replace if rotted!
And lastly I realized that I didn't see any ductwork anywhere, despite the presence of a furnace in the basement. Just a minor oversight
Oh well. It probably would have needed replaced anyway.
how timely !
