Buying or selling a Midcourt Eichler

Radiant heatMost Eichlers were built with hot-water radiant heat in the slab. Ask whether the original system still runs, has been repaired or was replaced, and get a radiant-heat specialist to look before you remove contingencies.
The roofThe low-slope roofs and their insulation are a common upgrade. Ask for the roof’s age, material and any permits.
Glass and wallsOriginal single-pane glass and thin wall panels are typical. Many owners have upgraded; ask what was done and whether it was permitted.
Palo Alto rulesThe city’s Eichler design guidelines (2018) cover remodels and additions in Eichler neighborhoods. Check them, and any overlay on the parcel, with Palo Alto Planning before you plan changes.
Flood zoneThe City’s November 2017 flood map shows this tract outside the FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. Maps change, so confirm with a current City parcel report.
