I'd love to have the kitchen updated before I move in, but that isn't going to happen. Just have to do it a little at a time. The most important things are getting rid of the bamboo before it grows through the walls, the the two trees before the roots get into the foundation. Then there is stuff like leaky faucets (I'm asking that those things be repaired before closing, but they probably won't go for that), and the exterior window trim needs paint, just stuff like that. The trellis cover on the patio needs water seal, and probably some of the wood needs replaced. Just a lot of little fix-ups. The place is a loooong way from being a dump, just needs a little sprucing up.

Your picture of the house was really nice.

My girlfriend in Ill just redid her kitchen in her house that is 100 years old. Earlier last year they redid the windows. Now Sue has a new kitchen. They gutted the whole thing, new cabinets, new ceiling, new counter tops, amana cooktop and microwave, Fisher Payekl dishwasher, the reefer was already new... new flooring..I can't wait to see how she did it. She kept it " old fashioned" in keeping with the age of the house and the personality of it. That house has the original lights in the ceiling ( rewired of course) and it just has so much personality..

Your house will have your personality as soon as you are in. Oh you'll have to show us your flowers come spring...we are all so excited for you..
