Year of Construction in Chattanooga, Tennessee

Hey everyone,

Hoping to get some input on an "appropriate" age of houses in Chattanooga. There's the obvious tradeoff of newer construction vs. price, and I am trying to find the point I should rule out old houses. 

For example "If the house was built in 19XX or earlier, expect significant CapEx". Trying to preempt issues like knob and tube, lead paint, etc

Thanks in advance,

Cameron

By the way, a lot of the houses were re-deeded in 1930. Some say it was a records fire. Some say they annexed a lot during the depression. So a house with a 1930 deed could be much older .
