Default Question about Old home repair

On 22 Apr 2004 12:48:34 -0700, (gaz) scribbled this
interesting note:

I just purchased a 3 Family home that is about 100 years old. The home
needs both inside and outside repair. Such as the Vinyl siding and
windows need replacing. The inside of the house is in decent shape the
only floor that needs to be touched is the 2nd. It will need to be
gutted and redone. My question is. Should I begin my work on the
inside of the house or the outside?

Thanks,
Gaz


Do any and all outside work that must be done. Anything that needs
attention that will cause damage if not attended to should take first
priority. The next thing to ask yourself is; "Where do I live? Inside
or outside?"

If it were me I'd fix what needs fixing outside and then move to the
inside, get it spruced up as fast as possible, then turn my attention
back to the exterior.
