What's involved in selling FSBO?
Besides finding myself a real estate attorney, what should I do if I want to list my place as a FSBO?
Run credit checks?
What information should I ask the prospective buyer for, and what do I need to be able to provide?
Or will a real estate lawyer be able to guide me through all this and all I need to to is advertise and babysit the open house?

Trex decking
I've heard all sorts of things on this forum regarding decking materilas for rooftops, but from what I understand, wooden roof decks can only cover 20-33% of the roof.
If I used Trex, is this considered non-flammable? Could I got wall to wall? Is Trex signaficantly heavier than Ipe, for instance?
deck for courtyard
our coop has a big concrete courtyard that I would like to fill in with Trex decking. I was planning on just laying down some strips of the Trex as the undercarriage. But to avoid having the deck rise up too high and get interfere with door swings, etc.. I am thinking of just laying the undercarriage strips flat-side down. This would mean there would be about an inch of space under the deck. Is this okay in terms of ventilation?

I hope it turns out well.
Hard to tell from the renderings, but will this facility be overlooking the cherry esplanade? I hope not. It's nice to sit on the grass and be surrounded by nature instead of looking into a glass lobby.

this definitely wouldn't help with the leaky interior, but I think the only hope for the exterior is to cover the whole addition with ivy and get a bunch of plantings on the roof to disguise the fence railing.

thanks 2:26,
But I thought this was a forum where people ask questions about things they don't have a clue about.
And yes, I am cheap.

almost anything would be a welcome addition to the food scene on Washington Avenue.
