The Perks of Buying a Historic Home
Unique charm
Newer homes come with some perks, but there's nothing quite like marveling at the fabled charm of a historic home here in the Triangle. Our area has countless notable neighborhoods from which to choose, and older properties often come with original features like hardwood flooring, stained glass windows, built-ins, and so much more.
Higher property values
Historic properties—especially if they're well-preserved—can sell for even more than a brand-new home. So long as you keep your older home in good condition over time, you can expect to see an impressive return on investment within a few years.
Endless potential
Many buyers believe that historic homes come with countless expenses. Depending on a home's condition, this could be true—but if you're interested in a fixer-upper, buying a historic home at a lower price and restoring it will give you the customization you crave. And best of all, it doesn't have to be expensive if you choose a place with good bones!
Tax incentives
Believe it or not, some historic homes qualify for state and local tax exemptions offered by the government. You might also be eligible for a lower interest loan if you plan on restoring a home or maintaining it.
