I recently looked at a 10 year old house with a wood foundation. How do wood foundations compare to cement block and poured foundations? Should I be consider buying this house or pass it up to keep looking?

I'm not a fan of a wood foundation. I know that in the right climate and with good soil conditions it's perfectly acceptable but I prefer the solidity and permanence of a concrete foundation.
