Hoping someone here can help me out. Just bought this house and it has a bunch of huge gorgeous maple trees. They all look real good, other then this one. I know nothing about trees but this one looks weird. Would it be sick? If so is there anything to do? It's in southern Wisconsin.

Diseased? No (Aside from leaf tar spots which are harmless). Getting old? Yes. You might want to get an arborists assessment of this one, once this species gets into old age they can decline and loose a lot of their strength, similar to how people get more fragile. With how this particular tree is put together, that could be a potential issue so you should monitor it.
