    "Looks like they did a really quick remodel with cut corners. Honestly, this house would have more charm if they wouldโ€™ve left it how it was you can see bad angles, more pronounced now where they painted white to look more modern. Floors are crooked and leaning, and that wouldโ€™ve been OK with original flooring."
