that's because it's in Iowa and I notice they do not show you the bathrooms. So she likely needs a lot of work. Not to mention the hazmat situation--anything older than 1980 has asbestos and lead paint. victorians might even have arsenic if they have original wallpaper anywhere.
As a popular saying goes, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" – what one person thinks is nice, another person might find peculiar.
People have different ideas about what makes a home special. Some like classic designs that remind them of the past, while others want to try new and different things. This can lead to homes with unusual shapes or colors that start conversations.

A few less avocado toasts per month and we could all afford one of these places, no problem! I mean all us pandas, put together, could afford one of these places.

Feels like, to me, the majority of these homes are not at all worth what they are priced at. More than half are absolutely heinous, and “historical” doesn’t mean it should be overly expensive. It just means lead paint, asbestos, faulty wiring and plumbing. Meh.
Suzy Creamcheese 1 year ago (edited)
Some of them are outrageously expensive because they're located in parts of the country where, for some inexplicable reason, everyone seems to want to live. What would be a $150K house where I live would cost ten times that in LA. And chill with the asbestos/lead paint paranoia, people. Most of these places have probably been remodeled at least once, and in any case, lead paint won't hurt you if you don't eat it, and asbestos duct insulation is perfectly safe. It's the loose fibers that are a problem.

F**k all of that nonsense. give me four walls and a roof that don't leak that's all I need.
Will Cable 1 year ago
Sometimes I check out homes online that are on the more expensive side and I am often surprised how poor the room lay outs are. Things like having to walk through 2 bedrooms to get to a kitchen or bathrooms with such an awkward design that even though the room itself is big the usability of it is poor.

A lot of these looked very dated. Do people with money never renovate?

I look at all the open plan, massive ceiling space ones, especially in the colder areas, and think my god the heating bills would be a good percentage of GDP

Most of these aren't homes. They're just ways for rich people to flaunt their wealth.

Anyone who thinks these bizarre has a seriously limited life experience.
LonelyLittleLeafSheep 1 year ago
Aside from the Frank Lloyd Wright homes, most of these are obscene examples of too much money. No one, I mean NO ONE, needs these kinds of houses.

Considering the high cost of buying even a modest home these things are mixing salt with alcohol and injecting it into a wound with a hypodermic syringe.
