Once you've decided whether you need to restore or rehabilitate your historic house, the next step is deciding whether you want to DIY it or hire a professional. Taking on a restoration or rehabilitation project can be enjoyable if you like hands-on work, whereas hiring a professional can save you time. Or, you might want to do a little of both, where you work on the projects you’re passionate about and contract experts to finish the rest. Whatever approach you take, the decision involves knowing how much time and money you want to spend, what your interests are, and what skills you’re looking to hire someone for. This list of questions will help you explore different types of professionals who can help you, plus important things to consider before hiring them.

The preservation term rehabilitate can be defined as: "To repair a structure and make it usable again while preserving those portions or features of the property that are historically and culturally significant."

Once you’ve found your dream historic home (and learned how to finance it), how do you inspect it to make sure it’s in good condition? Obviously a professional inspection—which will cover many of these same areas, but with greater depth and accuracy—is necessary as you move from looking to buying, but knowing what to look for while you're shopping around can help you make your decision too.

One way preservationists can express their love for old buildings? Live in one. After all, older and historic homes bring with them craftsmanship, unique details, a sense of history, and (for the handy among us) an opportunity to restore a home to its former glory. But finding and buying a historic home can be daunting if you’re not familiar with real estate, financing, historic building and district regulations, and inspection procedures. While we have a variety of resources available on how to find, inspect, purchase, and rehabilitate your old-but-new-to-you property, let’s start at the very beginning: with how (and where) to find your historic dream home.

In the preservation world, the term “recent past” most commonly refers to historic places younger than 50 years old. Modernism, which is another term often associated with the recent past, is generally defined as a style that began to flourish in the United States in the 1930s. Both describe places and cultural resources that are among the most under-appreciated and vulnerable aspects of our nation’s heritage. You may already know about our country’s recent past story through architectural icons like the Farnsworth House or Glass House (both National Trust Historic Sites), designed landscapes like Lawrence Halprin’s Freeway Park, and nationally significant historic sites like Lorraine Motel, associated with the civil rights movement. But this story is also told in less prominent places that are equally important to local communities and reveal much about who we are and where we've come from—early fast-food restaurants, drive-through branch banks, post-war housing projects, and suburban developments. And, often, these lesser-known places are the ones at risk, perceived as expendable, unattractive, or unworthy of preservation. Here are 10 things you can do to help save a place from the recent past in your community:

When we make friends we like to learn about them—we ask them where they grew up, where they went to school, and when they were born. Our homes are a lot like that. We spend time with them, value them, and take care of them. So it makes sense that we want to know more about them—who lived there before, how it’s changed over time, and when it was built. If only walls could talk, right? Instead, here are 10 ways to uncover the story behind your older or historic home (or any other building you’re interested in).
