"This was a property built in the late 1940s by a guy who used to build barracks for the US Army. The home was sitting on metal I-beams and they were supported by large concrete piles. The home hasn't moved an inch since being built. Very interesting and impressive!"

#15. Who would spend any money on a kitchen renovation were the floor is out at least an inch in about 6 feet?!

Yeah 'Murica. The land of the free where everyone is allowed to built everything. That's why we germans have such things as a TÜV, a "Bauordnung", a "Baugenehmigung" and a "Bauamt".

We have those things, too. Shoddy craftsmanship should not be considered evidence of a lack of regulation.

Rolf, The home construction and remodeling industry is highly regulated and has very strict standards everywhere in the US so “everyone is not allowed to built everything” is a very ignorant comment. Deferred maintenance, weather, earthquakes, along with homeowner work done without a permit happens in every country. Try not to be an imbecile.

Why the poor build quality? My house is on a solid concrete raft on one wing & block and beam the other. No chance of rot, movement or worry!
