Hi Lizzy in many cases the insurance company is going to care - so the seller should work with you to some degree. that said you can likely get insurance even if they tell you you will need to replace to keep the policy. OR get a quote for insurance for you from owners current provider, as by definition they know the asset. or get a licensed residential builder contractor who does roofing to assess and see if you can get a 2-4 year bill of health on it. hope this helps
