Should have just built a new house.What's crazy is you see that work but that's probably a minority of the work. The pics don't show the full plumbing and hvac replacement or the electrical work done.
They don't show the floor (joists and all) being replaced and lifted 1.5-5 inches.

You know things are done right, that's for sure.Looks like he is replacing everything except the foundation.
I would put the extra effort into a house I planned to live in for a long time but probably not for one I was planning to sell.You know things are done right, that's for sure.

Morning, Trip. She’s doing better. Thanks for asking. They found out she had the bacteria e-coli in her system and they’re treating her with strong antibiotics. She’s really confused still and is doing a lot of random talking. I hate to leave her today. She keeps saying she’s going to die soon.Good morning. @oldngray must have hit snooze today. @Operational needs hows your mom?
Thanks OG!
So after all the money and work, do you still think you’ll turn a profit when you sell? I know you bought the house for a steal.Ton of money too. Lol

Could have but we've enjoyed this.Should have just built a new house.
I would hate to be your realtor......sounds like you're emotionally invested and won't be sensible about pricing.Could have but we've enjoyed this.
Plus it may be the oldest house in town still standing. It was one more worthless owner away from just rotting away to nothing. No inspections or anything here just buy it and start tearing into it or do nothing.
The goal all along has been to save and update this old house but to do it right.
My brother-in-law bought the 2nd oldest house in a very small town. It is about 150 years old. He did a ton of work on it but planned to continue to live there. He used to work for the electric company so is certified to do a lot of the work himself, and knows people who can do the rest. He is also the mayor (probably because nobody else wanted the job).Could have but we've enjoyed this.
