      I've always said if I had the resources, I would purchase a lot of broken down homes, higher some of the homeless to help fix them up, bc I KNOW they have SKILLS. It's just somewhere down the line things went south for them. And some times when they have no actual address, people DON'T hire them BC they are homeless. 😳🥺 But I would like to hire them to fix them up, and help them save some money that they make to purchase one of the homes. Show them someone DOES care. There would be stipulations of the WHOLE situation.

    Just sort of rabbit-holed my way here (UA-cam!), but am now fascinated with these empty home tours. Such a comment on the excesses of our consumer society that even HOUSES are essentially tossed away. I know that’s not really the case, and much of this phenomenon has to do with the real estate madness that dominates housing in general, but still…it’s so weird to see often perfectly liveable homes sit empty and rotting. And you’re right, it’s really NOT up to private owners to solve the homelessness issue: governments of all levels have to get together, get creative, and start building social housing, co-ops, family-oriented purpose built housing. Unfortunately, the ‘market’ has failed to solve the housing problem. Here in Vancouver where I live, the majority of new builds are sold off-shore and sit empty while the homeless live in tents on the street outside those newly built empty condos!
    Anyway, I’m enjoying this particular rabbit hole. Thanks for your content.

      I know everyone is entitled to an opinion, and that's okay. But I just want to give you my perspective. I've never been 'lazy,' a day in my life. I've previously faced homelessness, and due to the cost of living, if it weren't for my boyfriend's family -- I'd currently be homeless, and yes, I work!! We never need to look at any homeless person as lesser than, look down on them, nor see them as your enemy. We're all on the same planet and we're all equal. Homelessness is an epidemic and it's only getting worse, due to GREED, plain and simple. People need to stop assuming that every poor and/or homeless person is that way 'by choice,' because they're 'lazy.' Try getting a job while homeless, then we'll talk. Furthermore, there are plenty of people who work, some even work 2 and 3 jobs and struggle just to survive, because of what the cost of living is. Take a look around. No the wealthy aren't obligated to house homeless people, but they're the ones who can afford to do so, especially considering the fact that by and large, our government (US) doesn't seem to give a f*** how many people are homeless. There are entities on a smaller scale that try to help combat the issue, and some towns who have tried to help solve the problem, at least in their own community, but we have plenty of homeless people everywhere, not necessarily by their own choice/doing, nor 'because they're lazy,' but simply because rent and mortages have skyrocketed, some are 2-3x what the same places would have previously cost, just since COVID-19. Groceries still cost double what it cost, prior to COVID-19. I can go on and on. There are plenty of people who work, but can't afford rent, etc (then, once they become homeless, it makes it difficult to impossible to keep their job, eat, etc. it's a slippery slope). Wages haven't went up, overall, but the cost of living continues to increase. THAT is what the problem is. We need to learn to love other human beings. When you're fortunate enough to do so, have a longer table, not a taller fence. You are very privileged to be able to do what you do for a living. Ethan probably makes more $ than I do, as a UA-camr, and I am college educated.

    Realtor here 🙋🏼‍♀️ if the house has been winterized, they're leaving all those cabinets open in the wet spaces to allow the heat to get to the pipes. Even if the waters off they can still have pipes bust. It also helps them look quickly when they're winterizing to make sure nothing's left in the cabinets. Maybe when y'all are done go back and open them back up the person who had to open them up for their job.

Did developers approach them first to buy? I find it interesting, but unfortunate that developers would snatch up the houses first before a prospective buyer could have a chance. But I don’t know how all that works.

    I remember watching your first visit to these homes. It was during a cold winter day, and there was a light coat of snow of the ground. Ended up binge watching many explorations on your channel that day. I want to say that the 3rd house was visited first in that video because I really loved the staircase in the 3rd house the best. I could actually see myself falling thru on the stairs in the first house from a misplacec step on my part 😅. It is a shame they left that picture behind in the 3rd house. I really liked it.
    As a homeowner of a house that is well over 70 years old and could use a kitchen upgrade, it breaks my heart to see what would look new in my old house can be so easily discarded and eventually destroyed. Poor people problems. Rich peoples waste. I absolutely loved those brown kitchen cabinets in the first house. They would look perfect in the kitchen in my earth tones decorated home. 😭
    I do feel some of these empty dwellings could be converted into single room Apts. I don't know how it is in Canada, but here in the US, we do have a lot of homeless vets suffering from PTSD. It may be insensitive for me to say this, but I feel that ONLY our Vets should be given priority for short-term room and board to help them get back on their feet.

I get too much anxiety looking at such beautiful houses that should be sold being destroyed to rebuild Why do we waste things that shouldn’t be because wanting to build something else. Certainly selling three mansions would make enough money to build townhomes somewhere else. Ignorant waste of gorgeousness. Who chose to do that. Why is electricity still on and are these left open for the ungrateful to destroy. Bless you I just can’t see more. It’s too much waste of beauty. Too sad. Too much not able to comprehend.

      but it isn’t our problem. they have as much opportunity to walk into mcdonald’s and apply for a part time job as you or i do. but instead the greater majority of homeless depend on handouts from either the government or the taxpaying individual like you and i. it makes zero sense why anyone would even think about handing 3 large homes such as these out to these people. after they’re trashed drug dens in a week or less, who’s gonna pay for maintenance? who’s gonna pay for the utilities? not them, but us… i guess it’s a cold thing to say, but it’s reality. it’s not our job or responsibility to take care of these people.

    When developer's buy houses to sit for months is annoying in my opinion at least rent them out on short term leases ,kinda stepping stones for people moving or starting fresh , also gives developer's income too ,

    Hi Ethan I agree with you about the destruction i don’t understand the reasoning behind it. This house is beautiful I liked the big fireplace in the first room you went into, the kitchen was humongous I’d love it if my kitchen was that big. I live in a modular home and the kitchen is the size of a walkin closet. Great adventure and I love watching you, along with many other explorers I watch anything that has to do with abandoned buildings. Such a shame this mansion is abandoned. Great job and keep them coming. BJ from Baraboo, wI

    Happy New Year Ethan I'm looking forward to see what 2023 brings you.. I was Thinking for the abandoned house that your considering getting did you ever think to yourself about getting certain things from other abandoned places to put into the new place because there is soo many items that could be Salvaged in alot of other abandoned houses and you can put your own spin on your place.. I Think that would be amazing..

      Does somebody buy the houses if they're gonna be demolished or why are they abandoned. I agree that some of the things could be reused that are good and not full of mold or anything rather than just crush them all down.

I feel the same way, but it’s going to happen more times and it doesn’t and the people that are doing it or not in your audience. I just hate to see the content be mostly complaining about the disrespectful people who damage property and not focused on the beauty of the home …

    I was grossed out by the eating of the potato chips, BUT had the nerve to say it was disgusting that someone drank the water out the bottle. At least, the bottle was unopened unlike the bag of chips that no one knows what could have crawled over the exposed ones on the counter. Ugh 😢😮

    Speaking of homeless people being housed there,imagine these houses being sold to care facilities (for the elderly,group home for youth,treatment for addiction ,assisted living for Veterans that come home and need help🤯😩😵‍💫)that need buildings that are in great condition….and being sold for the price of being torn down. I’m just saying.🤷🏽‍♀️Those houses could help a lot of suffering people and the owners still get to walk away from them but with some demolition 💰💰💵 in their pocket.

    The fixtures, shelves, and all metal things can be reused in habitat for humanity homes, also, all cabinets can be reused in homes for homeless people. Putting homeless people in abandoned homes starts to help them with their mental health, it will give them a start toward healing. Then the mental health services will have an easier time helping these people.

    The kitchen in the last house was my favorite. The layout of the first seems like a maze. I know the first and last had the same layout but there’s subtle differences that makes the last make way more sense. I also love the staircase in the last one.

Obviously it would be just like a drive-by of it, but I would love to see what the area looks like once the house is gone.

    Happy New Year Ethan its just too depressing that these 3 jewels are going to be knocked down for personal gain and profit. We cant stop progression some mansions get knocked down to be replaced by larger ones now i disagree with that but its their money and in this cases townhouses interesting its possible the land was rezoned like in the video game Simcity where low density residential can be change to medium density.

    Good afternoon Ethan 🤗 thank you for showing and sharing this video again, these homes are absolutely gorgeous homes definitely my dream homes that I’ll never see in my lifetime but at the same time I hope they repurpose a lot of the stuff that are in these homes like the countertops, the stairwells, the mini blinds because they could be repurposed somewhere else and donated and that way they could write it off on their taxes if need be, but I hope they will do that even the doors but people are gonna do what they’re gonna do and there are individuals out there that are so disrespectful and hateful people that all they can do is destroy not only themselves but other peoples belongings as well. 😢. But anyways, you take care stay safe🤠
