I'm in Massachusetts and just flipped an 1890's Victorian in Dedham for a nice profit, and I'm now working on an 1850's Victorian in Canton.  

Plus a nice large Victorian historic home that is technically a liability, but I love and am happy to pay for.

One thing we did for years was move those great Victorians from lots, and move them to dollar ville, and then moved old mobiles onto the lots for rental income until it was time to sell.

The only pace where it may be worth it to deviate from a one color interior in a house is if you have distinictive features or  cabinets in a particular color that don't go well with your standard colorColleen:When we did a deep reno on one of our old (read: Victorian) duplexes, we deviated a little.  

@Aditya SomaSide-by-side / side-by-each / townhouse duplexes and triplexes lend themselves to fewer noise (footfall) complaints than over-under / stacked  properties as Christian pointed out.Another point to consider is that side-by-side, common wall properties are more likely to have been purpose built as a multifamily property in contrast to over-under units which are frequently the result of conversions - which has been the fate of many grand old Second Empire, Queen Anne, and Victorian houses down here on the East Coast.Purpose-built duplexes and triplexes are apt to have better sound and fire barriers between units (taking the age of the building into consideration) than some conversion done 75-yrs ago before there were any *real* building codes.

Saw the second largest building in the world, (behind Pentagon) which was built by Ceausesceu known as the Parliament.

We have a couple of Victorian / Edwardian vintage house which have been divided into multiple units.  

The person who sold us our house bought it before the crash at 460k, and we bought it in 2011 for $300k, a five bedroom huge Queen Ann Victorian with a legal rental on the back.  

There are a bunch of 100 year old Victorians near me that have duplex-like floorplans, but on paper and as they appraise, are SFRs.

I would love to meet wholesalers that focus on the “Villages” (Victorian, Italian, German) and Olde Towne East or individuals that would like meet and potentially go for an opportunity together.
