Know just what you're talking about being in love with the Victorian. I am living in my dream home.
My Victorian is about 150 years old and NOT redone. I've been busy since we moved in 6 years ago remodeling and redecorating. It's constant and I still have a long, long way to go and adding insulation along the way! I wish I had the money to restore it, not in the card though, especially now.
Yes, it sucks that the housing market appears to have gone soft again. I'm glad that you'll be able to take your time and hopefully make a profit on the sale at some point.
