Settling and Sagging House
I am looking into buying a frame, 3-family house which is 100 years old. The building is sagging and settling quite a bit (in my opinion) The roof leans a lot. I have yet to get an inspector because I feel he will pull the "only what I can see" card. Who could give me some reliable info? How can I make sure this thing will last?

Uneven House
I have come across a 3 family which I am interested in but it is very uneven and has settled quite a bit. I am going to bring an engineer to check it but what are the chances of it being ok?
