The Pacific Northwest is full of beautiful old homes in great neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Queen Anne, Madison Park and Mt. Baker.

Some are huge mansions, but it's possible to buy a cute Craftsman Bungalow, English Tudor or a Colonial style home too. Again, Seattle real estate is diverse, as the inner-city is over 100 years old. Our oldest homes were built in the late 1800's.

1 Dollar Homes For Sale in Massachusetts


The Robert Ware House dates to the 1700’s and can be yours for one dollar. No kidding.

You can buy the above home in Norfolk, Massachusetts for 1 dollar. What’s the catch? You have to move it. These historic homes are scheduled for demolitian. In order to save these old beauties, and save the owners the demolitian costs, the homes are sold for a buck. The homes are in good condition. There are currently three for sale, including the beauty above. Depending on the distance and size of the house, they can be moved for as little as $10-25,000. These sturdy houses can survive the move. The only exception: brick houses, which don’t travel well.

Bill Domineau, chairman of Norfolk’s historic commission explains the dollar giveaway:

In Norfolk, we have what’s called a ‘demolition delay’ bylaw. If a home is determined to have some historic value, we can require the owners to hold off on destroying it for at least six months. During that period, town and historic commission officials try to interest someone in moving the home to a new lot or, at the very least, dismantling historic details — from crown moldings to pine floor boards — for sale or use in other homes.

Who ya gonna call to move a house? Structural moving companies such as Northwest Structual Moving.
