Noticed more friends bragging about their quirky, old houses? It’s not just a trend—Americans are snapping up older homes because there just aren’t enough new ones. Thanks to a construction slowdown since 2008, the average home bought is now 36 years old! The upside? These homes are usually 15% cheaper than the shiny new builds. So, if you’re house hunting, don’t be surprised if you end up with a little more character (and maybe a few creaky floors). #HomeBuying #RealEstate #MoneyHacks #OldHouseLove
