HashtagGirlboss posted:Also depending on the part of the country roofing is seasonal work and even if not right now people can be booked out six months so that’s going to seriously delay a deal Took me eight months from signing the contract to get a 7' x 24' tin porch roof replaced with rubber because the materials were in short supply compared to demand and also it gets cold here

euphronius posted:roofing is the worst job in the world far from it worst job in the US is probably security guard in a store where you cant sit down Bar Ran Dun posted:probably but that can get complicated here. they don’t want to know about it because then if the sale falls through they have to put it on the disclosure. and you won’t get the house over something like a roof if you want them to deal with it. in addition to all this you wanna have it done yourself bc you can make sure it gets done right and warranties are often non-transferrable

I've been a roofer and it sucked but it also paid way better than any job I had until post college so land of contrasts and all that. There's no way it's worse than poo poo like being a picker for Amazon or a million other jobs that are as bad or worse on your body but also have lovely hours and pay a third as much.

Roofing is one of the jobs most likely to kill or seriously injure you so I think it’s fair to call it one of the worst jobs.

When roofers were out at my house I left them a case of beer one day and they drank half it over lunch before going up on the roof. It was hot though.

I had the same experience when they bought my mortgage. I ended up telling them to gently caress off by refinancing, but that was back when that actually made sense to do.

Can't imagine why homes in a huge swath of desert where the outdoor shade temperature regularly exceeds 100 degrees and water has to be rationed for golf courses wouldn't be highly sought after by the generation with the least wealth since peasants before the french revolution. Also does this map imply that the rest of the US home prices have increased since peak?

I know it's good in any context at this point that "house price number go down" but I get furious at the breathless headlines about like 2% drops. motherfucker a 2% drop after a 80% rise isn't poo poo! gently caress you!

The open spaces are where you can live and comfortably piss in your yard without neighbors trying to catch a peek. And yet somehow half the county will know when you fart.
