Found a House

However, it needs a shit ton of work. A lot!!! It's also full of lead based paint. I really like this house, but is it really worth putting a lot of time and money into it? Anyone know about lead based paint?

Every house built before whenever in the '70's is full of lead based paint.

Don't sweat the lead based paint.

Help what? It's better left alone. I've owned 2 houses - 1 built in 1910, 1 in 1927. Both full of lead based paint.

Oh sure. Just no reason to try to remove the old paint. Then you just sand and release all that lead based stuff.

Hell - what do I know.

Depends on how much you are paying for the house.
