This is fantastic! Thank you very much for creating this content. I actually have five houses that I bought for $25,000 or less. This is exactly the kind of stuff that I love doing and I live for.

So glad to see the Finklestein's on this show! Been following their IG account this past year, and some of those houses are soooo amazing! That's my future dream to restore old homes because they are so much more unique and beautiful.

Old neighborhoods have more character too. Mom & Pop corner stores, restaurants, and businesses, diverse architecture, and you can tell the neighborhoods grew organicly. Allies, attics, basements. Now all I see is housing tracks where wvery 4th house is the same house and strip malls between housing tracts. Thank got I didn't grow up in a place like that!

I love these older homes. The problem I find, at least in Florida, is the insurance cost on these older homes are outrageous. Especially if they are in historic neighborhoods.

Yup. Had one of my houses double insurance in one year. Appreciation can't even make that deal float. Now selling and moving to another market.

Great episode. I own an old home built in 1890, and I can relate to this. Even though I had the seller address some issues, I always plan/budget for extra.

This is Great. I think the best money is in making crappy houses less crappy. Also it's a huge need for some of these neighborhoods.

As builder I love old homes but there are many drawbacks that makes rehabbing them more expensive. If you start opening walls you will need to bring items up to code. You also have asbestos, lead paint, energy inefficiency issues. Electrical might not be able to handle our current way of life. Trades that specialize in bringing back old homes like those 100 yrs old is not cheap. You might buy cheap but total rehab cost might make the project not feasible.

To ME....OLD is anything earlier than 1900 or so. I love older Victorian homes....

Oh my God, did you know you can also buy an old used car for $10,000 in 2024?
