Buying An Older Home?

Charm, character, and attention to detail are all reasons to buy an older home.

From original hardwood floors to unique facades, there are many reasons these homes are desirable! 🏡

However, before you make a move to buy an older home, I want you to make the most informed decision possible.

That’s why it’s essential you look at these aspects –

🔳 The results of a home inspection

Wiring, plumbing, roofing, and more can all be costly repairs you don’t want to be surprised by.

🔳 The cost & time of maintaining the home

Make sure that you budget both money and energy for the upkeep of an older home, including maintenance and any necessary upgrades.

🔳 The state of the neighborhood

If you love the home, make sure you love the area as well! This is one aspect you can’t change down the road.

🔳 The functionality for your life

Does the layout work for your living needs? Smaller rooms and retro floorplans need to be considered for you and your belongings.

No matter the age of the home you buy, if you do your homework, you’ll be happier in the long run! 📌 I’d be happy to discuss the “pros and cons” of buying an older home in our area with you and share homes I think you’ll love!
