uh... my house is nearly 100 years old.... I tend to think in many ways old homes were built better. It's no longer possible to get the quality of wood that you find in old homes around here. The trees just aren't that big anymore... I will admit that you with some old homes you may find a lot of systems that require updating, but IMHO a well cared for older home is a treasure.
