prayers up please. It’s kinda rundown bc that’s all I can afford so I’m scared there will be something really big that makes it unviable to purchase. My neighborhood is starting to gentrify but the current owner wants to sell to me because she has only gotten offers from developers who want to tear it down and build some featureless cube. It’s a really pretty old old brick house. I always wanted to live in a brick house and this might be my best chance.

    From my walkthrough it didn’t seem to be any water or foundation issues. The only big thing is its knob and tube electrical and had ancient plaster walls which the current owner took out but then couldn’t afford to replace. I can afford to get the electrical fixed and will slowly redo the walls over the next year.

    What I’m really worried about is a mold issue I didn’t detect in the hour or two I was looking at it originally…
