Reliability/Reputation of Butler Buildings (Canadian Winters?)

Good evening..

My partner and I are looking into investing in some business real estate, and have a line on a building that's a prefab design through Butler Buildings, at a cost of around 2.3m

We've had a roofing inspector have a look into the structure and he was hesitant to recommend them, especially in the harsh eastern winters - the roofs have a very slight incline, and as such, apparently the galvanized steel panels are prone to pooling water, that erodes over time, and then needs replacement (we've been quoted around $25/sq ft., bringing our estimate to around 250k)

I've been digging into some reviews on the buildings and their reputation, but there seems to be very little information on both the roofs in our climate as well as any sort of information at all on their reliability.. Hoping someone can either shed some light on these structures and/or point me in a different direction. Ty

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
