[quote=Anonymous]We bought a 1920s house and have been in it for two years. I despise it. Something is always wrong with it, from roof issues to HAVC to fireplaces to plumbing to mice to you-name-it.

We spent a bunch of money already fixing things/dealing with things we had to, now we don’t have enough left for the big changes we wanted to do that would have made the house much better.

It’s not unlivable by any means. We just don’t enjoy being in it and our visions for what it could have been are dashed. We’ve done little things like change a couple of toilets, updated the faucets, painted, sanded and repainted the floors, improved some of the lighting But the house still sucks. It just does. Any every day something else breaks or stops working that makes it suck more.

We can’t sell yet, we need to hold onto it longer so we don’t lose a bunch of $. If anyone else has gone through this, do you have advice?

Aside from don’t buy an old house unless you have the patience/stamina/money. This was our first purchase so we learned a big lesson. We aren’t old house people.
