Also, some of the nice Victorians I saw in the city needed a lot of work and I wasn’t very comfortable with the types of tenants is on there.

@Anthony Wick some of those war zone properties photograph very well, gothic Victorians and well built craftsman’s.

Think about it - if you can buy a plot of land with a beat up 1890s Victorian that is falling apart for $300K, demolish and rebuild it over 8-12 months for $400K all in, and sell for $1M, you see a 30% profit margin.

It's a 1910 victorian style home with new HVACs in each unit, new windows & new floors.

., my husband and I looked at a really cute old Victorian house that needed a bunch of work, but we were young and loved the idea of fixing it up. 

I came across a 4-unit old Victorian home listed at $84,900.  

It was a really cool old Victorian style fairly small two story house with a yard that would need a lot of work, but we were excited - both of us loved old houses and weren't afraid of the work and loved the idea of bringing that cool old building back to life.But - when I got the title report, it contained multiple pages of easements - like you wouldn't believe.  

Victorian house converted to a triplex .

That little old Victorian house was nice and toasty inside after that. 

She even put in some wood kennels inside her old Victorian style house.
