I had a house built in the 50’s that I sold when I built my new house 5 years ago.

Modern safety and structural requirements far outweigh the “heavier and better quality” older stuff. I’m not saying some cookie cutter mass produced homes don’t have questionable craftsmanship but let’s not pretend every old home is just build like a tank and trumps every modern home.

They weren't built like a tank. materials were different back then. So was craftsmanship

It's preposterous to act like everything isn't way better now. Starter homes now have tech in them that's better than nice homes 15 years ago.
