Here we have plumbing ventilation that was not properly supported, causing it to drop well below the 6 inches above the roof that is required and the rubber boot to become inverted. Water was beginning to leak into the attic around pipe.

Had an inspection the other day where someone screwed wood into the open soffit leaving these screws penetrating upwards through the shingles all around the edge. Makes getting on the roof interesting to say the least, lol.

Old and New Growth Trees and Wood Products - HullWorks 03/01/2024

Home Buyer: I want a house built after 1980.
Me: Actually, you don't.
Let me explain.
Newer isn't always better, and this picture sums it up pretty well. The quality of modern lumber is simply far inferior to the quality of lumber they were using to build homes in the early and mid-20th century. Wood quality began dropping on a serious scale in the 1980s due to old-growth timber being almost completely depleted. Most wood used today is grown very fast - not only can you visibly see the difference in quality, but the newer lumber is more prone to rotting due to a lack of heartwood. Slow growth wood yields much more heartwood, which is the longest lasting part of the tree, whereas sap wood (new growth wood) will rot very quickly. Modern lumber is also a lot more prone to termite damage as it is softer and easier to consume whereas old lumber is extremely resinous and naturally termite resistant. A good rule - as long as the plumbing and electric has been updated, a well-built home from the mid-20th century is a better investment and will likely outlast a newer build. For more info on old growth wood versus modern lumber please read this great article:

Old and New Growth Trees and Wood Products - HullWorks The difference between old growth wood and new growth wood and the products they make is like the difference between granite and paper.
