Home Owner advice even a metal roof needs maintenance.
19 years ago I had metal roof installed on my home as part of an addition. A metal roof is a good investment and able to last 50, 75, or 100 years....if maintained. All those screws have nice rubber gaskets to seal out the water...ah but they don't last a fraction of those years. Hence the images of all those 19 year old screws.
During a recent project on my home I discovered that some screws and the gaskets had been failing for some time. So imagine if I had not undertaken the project? A few years longer and I could have faced having the metal roof removed and replacing roof decking on a roof the should outlast me.
So the new project...re-screwing the roof. Not on the project list while my nephew was down here to help me on other PLANNED projects. When it's finished the roof should be good for close to another 2 decades
As a Real Estate Broker, this is one more thing to consider as part of Buyer's due diligence when purchasing an existing home with a metal roof that is 10 to 15 years old with exposed screws.

So when people point to the stock market and is dismissed as if it only impacts the wealthy and those with 401K accounts. The graph below shows actual growth under the Biden Administration. Sorry but that is not a depression. The economy has consistently grown faster under the Biden economy than the economy. Those are measurable facts. Your feelings are nice but sorry, they are not facts.

I don't know what planet Trump is living on but the economy's in pretty good shape, all he can do is wreck it like he did the last time

Dear Women, you can vote but if you put in the White House and national ban will negate your vote!

You know people don't usually take kindly to the place they, or their families, are from is an "island of trash floating in the ocean".

Evidence of the backlash was immediate on Monday.

The numbers in these polls should not even be close when one candidate emulates and quotes dead N***s. He should lose more states than Hoover in 1932.

4 YEARS AGO: The DOW JONES AVERAGE was at 19,000. YESTERDAY it closed at 42,955!
4 YEARS AGO: unemployment was 9.2%. TODAY: 4.2%.
And SEPTEMBER 2024 INFLATION DOWN TO 2.4%
FACTS MATTER!
Don’t tell me you’re not better off now than you were in the middle of lockdown.

Hey, it's the thought that counts.
Gallows humour is better than none. We will get through this.

All those areas in red are potentially going to be under AT LEAST 9 feet of water. You are talking about some of the most expensive real estate in the Tampa Bay area, both major airports, our region's only Level 1 Trauma Center and other hospitals in the red, orange, and yellow areas.

November 5th is coming....
I really wish people would watch what Republicans DO and not their empty rhetoric. FEMA needed more money to cover the damage caused by Helene. Instead of addressing that, some Florida Congress members like Matt Gaetz (rumored to be thinking of a run for Governor) voted against what Americans need and then put up posts bitching about Ukraine aid AS IF ONE HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE OTHER.

Last night Vance was dancing around saying that the Trump Vance ticket didn't support an abortion ban, Trump was on Truth Social saying he would NOT veto an abortion ban. Then in an interview says he would veto a ban. Which is it DonOld?😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

OMG J.D. Vance is campaigning tomorrow in Pennsylvania with a "preacher" who claims Kamala Harris is a WITCH and practicing witchcraft.

As Helene is upgraded to a Cat 4, it might be a good time to remind everyone that Trumps Project 2025 intends to close the National Hurricane Center. So cool, more tax cuts.

SO THIS LITTLE PROPOSAL IS ON YOUR BALLOT THIS YEAR. NOT WHEN YOU EXPECT TO SEE CITY ISSUES ON THE BALLOT IF YOU LIVE IN THE CITY OF TAMPA. 👇

Amendment to Tampa Charter Section 6.01 Regarding Residency Requirements for City Officers Shall the amendment tosection6.01of the Tampa Charter, revising the residency requirements for the officers of the city who conduct the government to apply only to elected officers, as set out and proposed by City of Tampa Ordinance No.2024-59, be ratified and approved?

VOTE NO! 👎👎👎 IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE ON THE CITY PAYROLL THEN YOU NEED TO LIVE IN CITY LIMITS. NO TO HIRING DEPARMENT ADMINISTRATORS WHO LIVE OUTSIDE THE CITY. NO TO HIRING STAFF THAT DO NOT HAVE A VESTED INTEREST IN THE SUCCESS OF OUR CITY.

Our future President just gave an amazing speech to the Economic Club of Pittsburgh...compare it to the biggest loser's speech to the Economic Club of New York
