[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't hate all new builds. Some are nice. However, much more often, they're built cheaply and not built to last. They are almost always built with lesser quality materials than older houses and often lack any charm and are unpleasing aesthetically. It has nothing to do with cost. We could have spent less on a new build than what it cost to buy, renovate and add on to our old house. But we love the charm and character of our house and wouldn't trade it for most of the new homes built these days. [/quote] You have a survivor bias. There were just as many shitty quality homes built at the time when your house was built. But only better-quality homes have survived until today. This leads you to believe that older homes=higher quality in general. That is not true. [/quote]
