In theory a cedar roof should last longer than an older tar shingle roof and its easy to repair/replace in sections rather than total replacement.
I just got the photos from the seller on all the repairs and it looks brand new. I could understand why they wouldnt write a policy if the home inspection showed the roof was totally fucked and had no documented repairs in its life, but that's the same for a tar shingle roof, too.
It just seems weird to me that it's a total non-starter for some companies, but I guess insurers dont like what they dont understand or can't spread the risk out on.
