Do houses not last long in Florida?
Hey guys,
I saw few houses in Florida that are for sale but it says that this house wont qualify for financing because it was old, or something like that.
Does it mean that houses in Florida not so durable?
Thank you

My house in Tampa, about a mile from the water, is a wood frame home and was built in 1890. Obviously some updating has been done, and I've have to do some additional maintenance on the wood frame, (tenting for termites every few years) but its still standing 130 years later.
