[quote=Anonymous]The older home might have been built better, but when it's 100 years old already, is it still more sturdy than a new build? Our DC rowhouse had crumbling bricks under the foundation of the sleeping porch (which we had to completely rebuild as the sleeping porches get turned into additions often enough, but were not built with that intention), and there are holes in the cinderblock walls if you pull down the plaster. The original wood beams had to have reinforcement added. [/quote]
