I bought a house built in 1932. It had asbestos, in-ground oil tank, old windows, old roof, old plumbing, fuses w/a 70amp electric service, s**g carpeting everywhere, terrible kitchen, refrigerator in the hallway and an inexperienced homeowner. Within a few years it was all gone. shiny like a new penny &
I know what’s behind my walls.

When someone buys a house to be their home that choice is a deeper investment far beyond money. It is an investment in life, family, friends & neighborhood. It is where you will create your memories & live which should be done in rooms & spaces fostering strength, rejuvenation & relaxation helping you fight another day.

Everyone needs shelter from the storm. Buying a house in need of renovation & demanding & then building quality into every aspect of renovation, even where it can’t be seen - which I believe is most important, certainly more expensive to repair or replace than the visual – adds a level of satisfaction & many more nights of better sleep than a house by someone else for anyone.

I am not saying that choice is bad or wrong only that spending 10 or 20 or more years, probably sooner rather than later you will find out what’s inside your walls.

Many house owners, like people w/health, do just enough to breakdown less…doing what it takes to be healthy & sustain for the long haul is different.

When you renovate your home w/quality your weekly, monthly, seasonal, & annual maintenance will be easier for the time you are there…

& one thing that cannot be renovated or built into a house is its location…that can only be bought up front.

Set standards rather than goals.
