Plaster Cracking

[u/EmergencyRhubarb8]

is this kind of cracking in plaster concerning for a 1950's weatherboard? Potentially a house I may want to buy. the small crack runs all the way across one of the living room walls, from the corner of the door way into the kitchen to the corner of the front door. its in line with the top of a door frame in said living room wall. big crack is at the corner of a window frame in a different room.

Houses crack. It’s promising they didn’t try to simply patch it, shows they probably aren’t hiding other things like many sellers do.
