Old homes have way more style and class. I don't want no damn cookie cutter home. shyt is bland and boring

I would NEVER buy a new home today unless I built it.

I would also never buy a flip.

Nowadays your best move financially and long term reliability is an older home (30+ years) that you can upgrade/rehab.

Modern construction is garbage.

I hate renovating homes with casted iron pipes.
Late 70s n 80s homes usually have pvc.

Another topic is piere and beam..or concrete slab.

Newer wooden homes are trash , the newer hurricane proof homes in Florida are ok because they are built with blocks

New - if it's a custom build. Otherwise it's a crapshoot.

Old houses have sturdier foundations like others already said, but if it's never been updated or previous owner did a quick flip reno on it...if you ever seen 'The Money Pit' with Tom Hanks, good luck.

New build in a subdivision - a lot of em they throw that shyt up so fast with the cheapest materials out there that you'll probably start having to replace things after a few years. Check the builder's rep tho cause you can tell which ones have bad track records in your area.

yea, that’s a beautiful house. Some of that construction can’t be matched.

new construction is ok but depends on who is building the house. A lot of shytty new construction out there. My house is brand new. I don’t think I’ll go through this shyt again.

damn.

 

[bnew]

I’m gonna be buying within 12 months and I don’t wanna even look at something under 30 years old

 

[UberEatsDriver]

Poorly built I see

 

[Mike Nasty]

That's fukked up.

I remember looking at houses and closing random doors to see if they would shut flush/properly. You know if they didn't give a fuk about that, then who knows what else they didn't give a shyt about.

 

[JLova]

that shyt is terrible. Is there any protection for the buyer? I’d cry man....because you know a whole bunch of other shyt you can’t see is fukked up too.
