Had a guy sell me a turn of the century house 20 yrs ago for $250. I thought I really made out. The plan was to demolish the house (you seem to be going to partially demolish the one you bought) and use the wood for building out buildings on our new farm. Never again. Tons of hard dirty work.

I wish you the best of luck but you are in for a long cold winter.....so to speak.
