Here is a link to a home I've been asked to evaluate:

http://www.northwood.com/property/property.asp?PRM_MLSNumber=522632&PRM_MlsName=Westpenn

I went and looked at it. Other than a small problem with wood boring bees, what things should I be worrying about?

It needs the wood treated. It needs some other work, but nothing that I feel would be a deal breaker.

What am I missing? Anything I should go back and look at again?

I would ask to see heating and cooling bills.

That will tell you more than anything else if you have crack and/or chinking problems.
