    I agree, old homes have hella survivorship bias. But, you are playing roulette that nothing with fail immediately. The advantage of new construction is that you don’t have to worrru about any stupid retrofits and that you know nothing will break for at least a little bit.

      Has not been my experience. Yea the builder will usually fix it but I’ve seen them try to weasel out of that too.
