c.1900 Four Bedroom Iowa Fixer Upper With Unpainted Woodwork $33K

OHU50K Notes $33,000

Iowa fixer upper with unpainted woodwork. These cheap old houses with untouched, original elements are getting harder to find since HGTV has brainwashed flippers into thinking laminate flooring and barn doors are the way to go.  This old home still has unpainted woodwork, hardwood floors, colonnades, pocket doors, and 5-panel doors still intact. Let’s hope it stays that way with a new buyer with an appreciation for the craftsmanship of old homes. Trouble is, the cheaper the home, it seems the cheaper the materials go into it as “improvements.”
