regarding location; i went to a friend of a friend’s “house” it was really a slightly destroyed large mobile home with an addition on it. beat up like you wouldn’t even think to say “sorry” if you spilled a beer. But…it was ona mountain top in rural area with amazing views. hanging out there, of course, you think; man, who cares if my house is a mess. the dumpiest house on the right spot and it’s fine. it’s just a crappy house ina crappy spot that’s a bummer.

if the location speaks to you, the house doesnt matter at all..
