I found an apartment in an area I targeted at a price I didn't expect to find. Only thing is that it's a much older building that isn't renovated. What kind of things should I look out for it? I've already put my application in and have been approved. I am pretty locked on taking it, but I have 72 hours to cancel. Figured I should ask what others have experienced and how to look out for lemons in this situation. The building was built in 1951.
The floors are kinda noises, but it isn't terrible. That's the only significant thing I noticed right off the bat.
Edit, this apartment is in California, Bay Area. Feels like they are serious with dangerous substances. Should that give me any assurances that there's no lead paint or asbestos?
