Well, the house is 125 yrs old, so it's always gonna need something.

But we fixed up the kitchen a bit, we're putting in a whole new bathroom, and hope to have time to paint the entire inside, maybe the outside too. It already has a newer roof and gutters, newer windows, garage doors and fence.

We're still going to price it low so it sells, we don't have illusions - as some people seem to - that their place is still worth what it was a few years ago. And at least it's paid off, so if we really have to move in on the other property, we can. We won't be making two payments.
