Has anyone ever seen the movie The Money Pit where the house the couple buys turns into a nightmare with all of the money they need to dump into it?
That's my house.

So far a complete new bathroom (new floors too since it was destoyed by the crappy tub leaking-stupid fibergalss whirpool tub POC-never buy a house with one or think of putting one in. They are not worth it when hairline cracks appear or the jets leak without you knowing it until it's too late.), new doors and windows, new light fixtures (and a ceiling fan in the living room), new stairs, new porch, new retaining wall, new roof and repair to the chimney, new furniture, and new carpeting.

All to make the house look like it's not one of those slated to be condemned.

The low purchase price will get you everytime.
