One of our first orders of business is to get gutters, followed by an awning for the back area, and then solar panels. I want to be the house that has power after the natural disaster.
It boggles my mind that an area with so very, very much rain doesn't require gutters.
I told my sister I wouldn't look at a house built after 1966 and preferred earlier, just because it was pre air conditioning and therefore would have options for cross ventilation. The fact that it's more likely to have used more durable materials also helps.
