For the younger generation…don’t buy an old house unless you’re obsessed with DIY. It’s my definition of hell.

This is why I’m absolutely sure that a properly constructed new home should have a 25% premium above a decades old home.
It will still probably outlive something built today
Some serious levelling taking place!
I see a mining facility
Better than a million dollar cheaply built home where profit is put before quality without any land.

Yikes foundation issues?
Rising damp has corroded some of the stumps 💩
💀
Oof
😂
Mmmmmh depends but yeah I know what you mean
It does cost a fortune to build something that will last these days.
Are those pillars concrete?
Yes I’m swapping them for steel now 🫤
Well not with my own hands obviously 😬
Got it! was wondering. Makes sense to me now. Good luck with that I had a similar problem about a decade ago and steel pillars did the trick! It was shifting soil that was doing it. ☕👍💜
I hear that me either I had a crew do it. They brought in a crane and raised our foundation and slapped in the steel pillars it was nuts.
No questions if the new house is built right its a winner but these days fiat homes are built for 20 year outlooks where those old homes were built for multi generation
Good luck with the renovation! 👍
I just did it in the US and it was expensive. I built a nice little house for 300k that includes materials and tradesman costs. Cost doesn’t include land, a well or septic.
