Ended up putting a offer in a place in Walnut grove. Went for a house inspection and they had a pipe burst in the ceiling while the inspector was testing the water in the bathroom ( turning on taps). He also noticed the pressure in the house is 90 psi which is way to high. Seems the pressure regulator that was added in wasn't working.
Talked to the neighbor and it seems to be a big problem on this street. High pressure from the street and middling quality fittings. Some of the houses had every single fitting replaced. Some had to do that to get insurance ( this is hear say but we are looking into it)
So now we are at a point of are we able to ascertain if this house is going to need a major plumbing overhaul or if it was just the high pressure issue on this one fitting. Not too sure what the best move is ( we are planning to get a plumber that is exp with builds in to advise) .
Anyone have any other advice?
