In Tallahassee, a roof typically lasts about that long before they need total
replacement. Even though there may be no visible leaks causing ceiling stains
inside your home, an older roof likely has a few small leaks that can rot
plywood roof decking and truss supports. By the time leaks become visible they
have already been there for months.
If you want to sell your Tallahassee home, potential buyers look at an older
roof as a major repair expense, and may rule out your home as a buy. In
addition, buyers will have a difficult time obtaining financing or insurance for
a roof that has less than 3 years of life.
