We are on year 4 on our very old house in Tyler (mid 1800’s) but my hubby is a German blooded dude that can do it all.
Last weekend he had to belly crawl like an inch worm under the house to chip away at packed earth blocking his path to installing another pier in the kitchen area of the home. He was so whipped that after working at his job the following day he did not speak for 24 hours. He will be chipping away at the earth high spot for the next few weekends. Not for everyone!

About 20 years ago I got a big stack of National Trust for Historic Preservation magazines. Looked through them and used the info to tour some local neighborhoods near where I was living in Virginia.
One day I drove through Petersburg, VA. Even then the gay couples were buying up the old ghetto Victorians for cheap and rehabing them. This is not a new game these instagram millenials are playing.
