I agree. My last house was built in 1924 and did very well on the inspection and the HVAC was new.
One of the issues that does occur in older homes is there is no such thing as a simple project, once you start doing something the list of upgrades will get expensive A good way to look at these homes is to almost always figure pricing for a complete wiring and plumbing renovation. They can be a great adventure if you like doing home repairs.
