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. Dust is so thick it is more like dirt. 4 legged critters have used it for the toilet more times than you would emagine. No insulation, wiring shot, wood rotten, holes in roof. I wish you the best of luck but you are in for a long cold winter.....so to speak. Just gotta make your mind up to it, take it one step at a time, do not get overwhelmed by the task at hand; pride yourself in what you are able to get accomplished. Then, if your wits, money, and helper (mine was wife and 4 kids) is still around.......enjoy. Best of luck, Mark
