THANK YOU. That was fun to watch! I live in New England, so I'm blessed to drive beautiful old homes ALL the time. I used to live in a three-story Victorian Circa 1817 but although my husband lived there 14 years before I did and kept it up very well, it was a constant project. Nearing retirement, and the neighborhood getting worse as it was near a city, we decided to go out to a quieter more rural area and live in a sprawling Ranch where everything is on one floor and we brought all our antiques with us, LOL. We've been able to make a new home look quirky and Old Fashioned with our decor and have enjoyed it so much. Very convenient for retired folks with worn out knees and backs, and wanting to do more with grandchildren and people we care about and Christian Ministry than working on house projects. Every house needs maintenance, but this new one needs so much less. I do miss the charm and the back staircase that was curvy, and the grand entrance with the big staircase, and the wrapping front porch, but I don't miss the inconveniences of having the laundry in the dank basement or having neighbors so close together. There's also no mold or muskiness in the new house which helps a chronic migraine patient immensely. The Victorian was very close to the water and we are more inland now which helps my health issues. It's only a half hour drive from the beach, but the climate is less humidity. Didn't need to go into so much detail, but for anyone who was interested in "listening", I decided to expound on my experiences and I do have a love for the old homes and do wish we were younger and could completely restore a home in the country that was older. But I don't think it's for us. God bless those who can do it because I'm so glad there are many that will. These old homes need to be kept going and restored! They're part of our country's history! They're works of art, not only dwellings. But when you live in them they just feel so much like "home" and they've been home to others and their history is really really special. We are making our own history in the new house and very happy! Home sweet home to everyone!

They were some beautiful homes but I noticed that nearly all of them had baseboard heat and that is the most expensive heat you can have in an apt. or a home. I rented a two bedroom duplex once with baseboard heat and during the winter my electric bill was out of this world. Many years later my niece rented a small one bedroom apartment that had baseboard heat and she said that during the winter her electric bill was running over a hundred dollars a month for a 500 square ft. apartment. We both learned a lesson, stay away from baseboard heat.

I've been following Circa on Facebook for about a year now, but I just learned about your KZbin channel. I love the way this is all integrated (And of course I also love old houses).

[@barbaraconnelly7744]

Have been following your lovely channel for over 2years now, & love these beautiful historic houses. Would be over Ina flash if only I could sell my 4 house property here in Zimbabwe.

[@happycamper5529]

Thanks for finding these wonderful homes! I like that you go through them quickly, I can always pause to see them longer.. but the title said 7 homes, and I saw only 3, must be a glitch.. Keep them coming :)

[@SmallApple33]

I wish you didn't click so fast!! I know you said you put the house listings in the description for us to look at, but clicking through so quickly doesn't promote the house you're showing very well.

There is a red schoolhouse in Montgomery Center, VT for sale. in great shape too

[@wethumahlangu9407]

I am soooo inlove with this site, discovered it a few days ago and will definately purchase these homes

[@Jasongy827]

What song is that in the beginning

[@damegayle1]

How much was the last house in Callas(?), Maine? You never said.

[@chantellecobenais2416]

2:26-What if my dog wants to look outside?

[@shelraysam6366]

You have any in the 2017 and beyond that is cheaper?

[@klattalexis]

Does the land come with them?

[@stefanaharris8770]

I love the house in Waterbury..My late husbands hometown.

[@celestialdragon3989]

Beautiful homes! I agree with @Patte ( below/ above my post?) I’d have liked tours not fast clicks on a computer

[@lesleyallinson8738]

I love the first house

[@dennischannells5683]

I am in Australia and am very surprised how cheap houses are in the United States,or is this only in certain places?

[@moviemakerwannabe]

These are not normal prices. I'm not sure why they are so inexpensive.

[@carmay3600]

Dennis these homes are usually in places with lower populations and lower job opportunities. In today's economy people are going where the jobs are so that they can feed their families or even be able to afford to start a family. My husband and I look for houses based on quality school systems, as do most parents of school aged kids, so those homes cost more because they are in higher demand. Virginia school systems are rated around 6th in the U.S. ! The average 3-4 bedroom 2.5 bathroom is close to $325-450,000.

[@carmay3600]

Dennis Also at closer inspection a lot of these homes need massive updates: Floors, hvac,plumbing,electrical, windows, the ROOF...which could easily add up to over $175,000 and that doesn't even include appliances.

[@bobby-ry1ze]

and insurance?

[@GNeis7345]

Very Nice, !

[@socalgal714]

This is the first time I've ever given a thumbs down. I would love to see the pic's of these old houses - but you're clicking through so fast that your eyes don't even have time to focus! Gave me a headache. :-(

[@user-mj8nf2vp7q]

Saw the converted barn house on HGTV--house hunters.

[@denisesevera7613]

Love the beautiful old homes but what I've noticed is that they don't have fences around, at least, the back yards why is this?

[@AuntieM78]

Would you Please slow down when showing the different rooms. Some of us don't process pictures as fast as you do.

[@alienfac32]

i dont know why this came by. but these are propertys right? not that u need to move the house? becasue thats just rediculous cheap ._. i wish i could find a places like those here.

[@michellehaber1943]

Derptato I

[@elizabethfrederick2434]

slow down when showing the photos and tell us what each house cost. You do some but not all. The houses are stunning.

[@CheapOldHouses]

The prices change so we usually put the price in the description, and always check the listing page for the actual price. Thanks for your feedback on slowing the photos down, we listened and have been doing it in the latest videos.

[@bluebearbank247]

Waterbury, CT is such a bad area... that gorgeous Victorian house would be $550k if it was in West Hartford, CT where only 30mins away... Unfortunately, the neighborhood is a part of equation in the price of the house... very unfortunate and upsetting how those old gorgeous house neighborhood became run down crime area.

[@wendydenney8864]

Please, find me one like this in Oregon!

[@rebeccaoreilly9461]

ok taxes, heat and lights..............

[@theutopianoutopioan464]

Here's the catch, if you buy one of these houses you have to put up with progressive ideologies and the astronomical property taxes !

[@rhondaroberts2223]

LOVE the old houses but the constant "yammering" is unbearable!

[@jesseheflin4316]

Rhonda Roberts Sounds like a bagful of irritated cats.
