How old are your rental properties?

Do age of the rental properties play and role in your decision to purchase them? Assuming the foundation is still sound. I am looking at SFH in several neighborhoods. Ages range from 50-100 years old. Personally I don't see any problem with the older homes as long as they are still structurally sound but I wanted to get other people's take. Maybe some notice it more difficult to rent in older neighborhoods?

Age does not enter into my decision in any way.  I have seen 100 year old homes in better condition than 30 year old homes.
