At 71 years old and having much experience buying and fixing up homes,, There is one thing you apsolutly need when buying any of these properties , A SH#T LOAD OF CASH,, don't even kid yourself that you will buy a home like this an fix it up slowly over time with extra cash. If you work full time, have a family and figure you will work on them part time, forget it, it will brake your marriage and rob all your free time. These types of homes look pretty but in essence they are black holes, very exspencive to operate, very exspencive to upgrade and require huge amounts of time after they are fixed up just doing general maintenance

I have a house that is about 150 years old. It's a money pit. We are always doing something. I owned it for over 20 years and we are still fixing. We have spent all our money on this house. But we love it and have been very happy here. Sometimes, I think it does not like us because there is something always needing attention.

These houses are cheap for a reason, & it’s the same problems I’ve run into with the historic home I currently live in. 1. Electrical & plumbings systems that don’t meet current codes. 2. Not energy efficient. Insulation wasn’t a thing when they were built. 3. Large rooms with tiny closets. 4. No central HVAC, with ballon framing that makes it next to impossible to add. 5. Lead paint & asbestos. 6. Damp basement 7. Outdated fixtures that need constant repair/complete replacement. 8. Trees & shrubs planted in all of the wrong places.

@rapmeister1000 Жыл бұрын
@@yveefresh3397 kill joy? No, I’m a realist. For starters, just what is a $150,00 investment? What code? If there’s one thing I know, it’s construction and home renovations. Why? Maybe because I did it for 2 decades. And take a guess what my specialty was? Historical restorations. That’s why I’ve been able to keep my own historic home standing for 32 yrs. And since I own a historic home, I might just know a little of what I’m talking about, since I’ve been through every issue I spoke of.
@yveefresh3397 Жыл бұрын
@@rapmeister1000Um, I believe I was agreeing with you...the point I was making is at $150,000 price point be prepared to put cash into your investment. I also own a home that is 102 years old and no it's NOT a 'historical home' but it's built on an island in the pacific with an expensive cost of living. So, when a property did come available for $150,000- as is-the young optimistic- I see potential me- jumped at the opportunity only to realize what a kill joy it had become after getting it to code ( which you asked about). For example, the electrical was still knot &tube, there was structural rot, cracks, shifting which led to mold, (OH and the permits&inspections $$$$before and after)plumbing repairs that needed to be done AFTER I replaced the interior and exterior lead paint, pipes and installation of an RMS. Insulation removal& replacement, new roof and windows that were more efficient than island-style jalousies so that I could get a modern AC unit. The floor was sinking in the bathroom due to shifting so which led to a remodel and new appliances. So...my $150,000 home in a historical town on an island in the pacific was not $150,000 because, after all of this, I believe I came out of pocket over a 2-year renovation of roughly $110,000 bringing it to $295,000 in 1999. And though that number sounds low, it is literally what homes were already on the market for. This is what I meant about my post. It's really not what it is once you consider how much you may have to pour into an investment home.

It's a "gotcha" video using a fake title for views. I've searched high and low for TWO years and there are NO houses or even apartments in Texas that are "affordable". Texas is one of the worst places in America to buy a home. I don't know why so many Californians fleeing their broken, corrupt state think it's cheap. The worst part is I'm always outbidded by these blue state refugees. If I try to put an offer for a house, someone from a blue state says "That's cheap, I'll pay an extra $25k for that." I still cannot find a house. The average house I come across has fugly popcorn ceiling broken in a billion places ancient kitchen that will cost thousands and thousands to bring to modern times an a/c that is about to die NO garage (I don't know why a state that's always hotter than hell has no garage to protect your car), less than 20% of the houses that looked "near my budget" cost a heart wrenching $250,000 is nowhere near 1,000 sq ft of interior space And the worst part: if it's a 2 bedroom, it always costs over $250,000 no matter what it lacks. Saw my parents former house put on the market last year 50% more than its original price. Uh uh, it was an ancient, crap box that felt cheap as hell and had a lawn that couldn't be repaired short of ripping out all the grass and topsoil and replacing it completely.

It doesn't matter how cheap the house is, you will still get buried in annual taxes! I looked at a house that originally had an estimated value of $500k but it was on the market for $155k.

Property taxes should be based on current market value. When I bought my current house, the value was set to my purchase price. Unless the house is a distressed sale (owner forced to sell, on the market for a short period of time), the market value should be equal to the purchase price. Before purchasing any home like this, I would contact the appraisal/taxing entity to confirm tax implications
