I'll answer this 1, before I call it a night. Answer: It isn't going anywhere for a long time. Interesting thing though, I provide my clients with this amazing thing called House fax property report, know before you buy (upfront - no additional charge, and no strings attached). I learned that from my good friend Dr. William Chandler. This particular residence is located within 5 miles from a fault line. Fault lines in Virginia, can you imagine that? Goodnight and Stay safe out there. I'm being extra cautious in these mountains, a lot of unpredictables out there. Black Bear and Coyote are overtaking this area. 07/19/2016 11:47 PM EDT     Subject: Re:Virginia Trusses Mike Casey General Joined: 06/28/2014 07:21 PM EDT Messages: 1245 Location: San Diego CA Offline Looks like purlins with struts to bearing wall.
