Hi all, this is my first post. We have a park where there is an almost empty court of app 10 spaces, it is about 275 feet from one end to the other in a straight line. It runs right through the middle of the lots and is under the homes. The high point of sewer line starts at one end and runs straight to the street. There are currently only 2 homes the others are all out now. One home is at the beginning o the run and the other is just where the sewer line turns and goes downhill to the rest of the park.
Had a camera inspection and while there are no collapses it is a hodge podge of tile and plastic, missing risers and some issues that are not deal killers but may be a headache in the future.
My question to you all is would you go ahead and replace this line now while the area is open or make due with what is in place. Will a new sewer line have an effect on the appraised value of the park?
I have a contractor in the area that we have had great success with and would most likely pull my own permit, buy the materials, rent a small excavator and have them do the work (they are familiar with this type of work), so the cost may not be extravagant but will still be a few thousand dollars I would imagine. It sure seems like to me this would be the time to take the hit and do the work before moving in new homes?
I really appreciate any advice or comments, thank you very much!!
