Depending on your interest in maintaining your own boat, wood and ferro cement would be good to avoid. Steel and aluminum require a very competent surveyor. Not bad materials to build a boat out of, but proper maintenance is essential for a long life.

Avoid any that have been flooded or sunk. They may look fully squared away, but can have all sorts of problems down the road.
