I just watched the movie again and yes, it's lovely. Buuuut I'm seeing a sort of plot hole that bothers me:
How did Mary afford to purchase that house? Sure, it's a broken down wreck that no one lives in. But it would still cost money. George and Mary are broke, even using their honeymoon money to keep the Savings & Loan open. Did someone chip in to help Mary purchase that behind George's back? Because no hint of that is ever given.
Just being picky, but I may as well ask.

It could have been a gift from both their families. Some families gift a down payment. And seeing that it was a crap shack when they got it, it was probably a steal .

Unfortunately I can't find the alternate ending to It's a Wonderful Life that Saturday Night Live did otherwise I would post it. I legitimately thought that this was going to be a question about what happened to Mr. Potter when the town found out about his part in George Bailey's financial troubles. (Although they probably didn't, but I like to imagine that they did and gave him a beat down like in the SNL skit.)
