‘1930’s $300.00”
But, wonder how many folks would live in a 1930’s house? Or 40’s, 50’s even 60’s? Those houses were poorly built regarding insulation and many other factors that the value today would probably be closer in line with inflation from that time.
Lots of 1930’s houses did not have electricity or indoor plumbing. They tended to be smaller as well.
We lived in an old old stagecoach rooming house that had no insulation in the walls- the wind would move the curtains or posters on the wall lol. We stayed plenty warm though with a huge whole home wood furnace system.
The original part of my old house was built in 1924 and after many additions and improvements starting in 1950 by my husband’s parents and then carried on by us for 44 years, we had it pretty much how we wanted it but they were still deficits that you couldn’t fix because of the structure.
In May of 22 it burned down and we had to build a new home. We built it according to ADA guidelines and we built it to be very energy efficient. Even with the air conditioner on this summer we never had an electric bill over 138 dollars and this winter which has been pretty cold and the heater has only come on around 10 times and stayed on 10 minutes and shut down.
I was very sad when our house burned down but after being in this house for 9 months I’m so glad it did.
