I feel really bad for him and his family. He just closed on this place in early August, and was so excited to be lakeside.
If he tears it down they may not be able to ever rebuild if it's close to the water. Tell him to look into the requirements before doing anything. It may be a case where they "repair" it, then add a 2000 sq ft addition.
