We have a short window of time before we have to put our house on the market. In that window, we have several projects to make it more attractive to a potential buyer, and/or to be able to get a better price for it. Many of these projects are either finishing things that a previous owner left unfinished, or getting rid of things in bad shape. This is an example of the latter. While we loved having shade for my car, this carport was in terrible shape. Both horizontal beams were sagging, and one part of the roof of it was completely rotted through. Several leaks made it not very useful at all for keeping rain off my car. We opted to tear it down & clean up the front of the house instead of rebuilding it - which would cost several thousand dollars. Our friend Kevin offered to tear it down for the price of whatever materials he could salvage, and we both thought we got a great deal. Here are four "from the street" view pictures throughout the process. It's not completely finished, although the carport IS completely gone.
