Correct?

If I had a million dollars, I would buy a house tomorrow.

Is this sentence above correct?


if I just say, ‘if I had a million dollars, I would buy a house’, does this sentence mean I would buy a house right now with out the time indicator like ‘today’ or ‘tomorrow’?

The first sentence is fine; the absence of a time indicator in the second sentence does not imply that the action (the buying of the house) would necessarily happen immediately (right now).
