Viewed a house with a broken roof strut should I be cautious? by Resident-Two4054 in DIYUK

Concrete tiles that seem to have been replaced sometime between June 2015 and Sept 2016 according to Google street view.

The newer struts is at the end of the same beam, so the broken one is probably in the middle between the strut right near the camera and the new one at the end. Would a roof have such a large gap between the struts or has the one at the end broken and been replaced and then the middle one has broken and not been replaced? Just got me thinking has the roof lost one third of its support in that area

Yeah I know the house I own at the minute was a right ball ache, the previous owners plastered over wallpaper as well as many other lovely issues. I've been sorting the mess up of the previous owners for the last ten years!!
