How grand, the windows and look at that porch! Around here houses are being flipped because the market is so good and sometimes they're stripping houses of their nice old woodwork and doors to replace for plain white everything. It's quite sad!
I also enjoy looking at houses for sale around the country, especially the older ones. I have no plans on moving anytime soon. I did see the one on Banks St. Unfortunately it is most likely going to be a money pit. Due to high labor rates and lack of qualified people it is cost prohibitive for most people to be able to properly restore and old house anymore. The one that Wesley is working that sold for $800 new only translates into $21,300 in 2024 dollars according to the inflation calculator.
