Has anyone taken a chance on a home with uneven floors. (Property is 115 years old)? 

Any issues arise?

@Barshay Graves I bought a rental with uneven floors.

I crawled underneath and examined things. I was able to identify the problem areas and knew a few cement pads and wedges would take care of the issue. And that was the case.

I'm a civil engineer with lots of bridge construction experience.

So that's my point - get an engineer to crawl it.
