by Elizabeth Finkelstein I know I say this every week, but I truly believe this round-up of 10 houses under $50,000 takes the cake. I found so many incredible houses this week that I thought of bumping it up to 15, or even 20. What's going on?!? And more importantly, how have any of these spectacular homes been on the market for longer than a minute? I always have so much fun pulling this post together,...

To round out the mix, we've got an early Vermont colonial and an old school country store! Everyone: Get out your Christmas lists, and join me as we sit back, relax and see the potential in this...
I suppose I love a millionaire's den as much as the next person, but I'll be honest: Perfect, expensive houses can get a little boring. What do I really love? Houses with POTENTIAL. Fixer-uppers! Hidden charm. Something I could pour my heart into. Something undiscovered. Something to lure me to unchartered territory, to toss away my life as I know it, to invest all of my time and energy into a labor...
