Want this as a personal plan?
Send this estimate to Rudy and he will follow up with a personalized version, no pressure.
This is an estimate for planning. It is not a quote, an appraisal, a loan offer, or tax or legal advice, and Rudy is a real estate agent, not a lender or tax professional.
Where the lifespans come from
The typical lives are taken from InterNACHI's published life-expectancy chart for home components, which assumes regular maintenance. Climate, installation quality and use change them, so a home inspection and local contractors give the real picture for your house.
