$20,000 over the asking price!!! The big lesson, after she made structural and appliance upgrades, is finding and placing furniture that fits an open floor-plan. She basically closed off the space with too much old and un-matching furniture and shoes. It looked like a garage sale in there.
Simone is so cute and so clueless it is endearing! So glad she got your help. Sometimes things are just overwhelming and I think that is exactly what Simone was experiencing. She just needed someone to give her perspective in a way she could understand. GREAT job!
It astounds me that most people can’t see the potential in houses. I didn’t see much wrong with the house to start with (not the colour I would’ve chosen but that’s an easy fix). But in saying that, we bought a house that wasn’t officially on the market yet because the owners hadn’t had the chance to tidy up and get it ready for photos. The agent just knew it was what we were looking for and asked the owners if they were ok with us going through. They were but apologised for the mess (kids stuff everywhere, but we have kids so we get it 😂). We were able to look past the clutter and see its potential. We haven’t settled yet, but I’m so pumped to get in and paint it, replace carpets, etc.
Simone saying its not my style...that doesnt matter because she is selling the house and what she should be interested in is what buyers want not what she wants...she can do her style in the next house...having said that what is her style because currently the house she owns has no style whatsoever! When selling a house you have to think of the house you own as not being your home anymore it will be someone else's home and you have to discard the house from your mind all while dressing it to sell!
All those shoes lol 🤣 boxes of them , nice renovation surprised no one cut the weeds out of the front bed & filled flowers into the one oval bed 🙃. Guess the new buyers can do that 😉
I won't lie, this homeowner seems a bit difficult to work with. Complaining about how she can't afford her house, but seems to drag her feet on things. Questioning the designers, complaining that things aren't her taste. Even how she says "Oh. Ok."
@@Xombertto be fair those shoes looked kinda cheap. She probably had a lot of them from before buying the house. And they definitely cost less then materials and labour for built in shelves and generally remodeling a house.
she put in that badly thought out washroom eating up the footstep in the front room. She not only has no sense of "style"...she has no business sense either.
you can tell she put in the washroom and instead of utilizing the dead space under the stairs...she ate up the limited space in the front room. She's one of those "first thought" and go type people instead of thinking what works best.
The former dining room became the front sitting room. The bathroom is to the left of the floor lamp in the newly staged front sitting room. The new dining room is the room that had the five sofas.
Perhaps if she bought less shoes she would have had money for paintings and vases. I'm sure there was a Goodwill in her city where you can get some good things cheap. She also seemed surprised that 5 sofa's in that tiny space was excessive. She didn't like the house with the country furniture because it was not her style. I'm not sure what her "style" is based on the stuff she owned. It's a good thing she finally sold the home. I bet her condo won't look any better.
This place was screaming lack of storage with those shoes everywhere. I don't mind "granny" linens, I like it, but not shoes everywhere. Pictures and flowers (alive) make wonders.
while this is all good and well, why does it matter how the house is furnished/decorated? Don't you as the buyer bring/buy your own stuff and rearrange everything to your liking?
@VampireNavari I'm guessing it's related to the "bargain asking price of $419k". Inspections may have looked past the poor room flow and unappealing presentation if, say, it had been listed at $380k. But buyers, like the two ladies towards the end, stepped inside with expectations at $419k - and her house fell short. This was an interesting show - to see a first home buyer, and how she did not fully understand her own needs and lifestyle when buying a home.
The shoes need tidying up - having them all over the place makes it look like there isn't any storage space for them. Why that many sofas and chairs? The table in the kitchen is in the way.
"That's not my style" is so rude. You're not there to be critical of other peoples style - especially when you have none yourself. I'm glad Sophie stood up to her being so opinionated.
Nice wooden floor I sell next year started 0 De clutter garage then cleaned it fresh, new room, flat, garage Going to get loft cleared and cleaned by specialist to do same again potential for a room, officf
Too funny that she couldn’t see how granny like her house was. The furniture was too ugly for words. Sophie likes big red poppies just like her sister Kirstie on love it or list it U. K.
The seller's style always needs to evaporate in favor of the buying public's style. You're trying to get someone else interested in the place you want to leave.
Ill tell ya what builds n defines our arms...having n loading our wood stove..lol She n her crew are ausome!!! Actually you are very kooth.. quite tackful n elegant with you choices of wardrobe..GODblz Bsav LivnluvinCHRIST love p.h.
Simone didn't want a house 🏠. She only brought that house 🏠 out of jealousy, because her friends brought a house 🏠. Simone is the type that will buy a new car, If the neighbor buys a new car.
I don't think so, it's wise to buy before 30. Most mortgages are 30 year terms and most people retire at 60-65. If you're close to retirement banks won't give you a mortgage unless you have a massive down payment.
I don't understand why this was even put out. It's just a little bit of a regular show. Part of the interest for me is to see what renovations are suggested, why and how it is completed. I'm glad she sold her home. I also wanted to know how much it cost to fix up her home to become sellable. Did they buy new furniture or just rearrange it? If so, how much was the total for the renovation? Again, I didn't see a real purpose in putting this video out. Sorry...
@@barbrn The portion of the show that was in my list was only about 12 minutes long. I guess there was another one that showed the whole process and I did not see that one.
Why couldn't this property sell, even after 100 viewings?! 🏠
Yeah look past the awful furniture
Those 100 viewers had no vision. You are buying a property and not other people's decorating choices.
@@victorialine5984 Right. With some vision you can even lower the price a bit.
I loved Simon saying its not my style. She didn't have any style. She's hilarious.
"Nothing says buy me like dead foliage." Brutal, witty, and sarcastic, all in one!
"Not my Style"....😂😂😂 when there is no style 🙈🤣
The shabby house next door would be my first turn-off. Her half had great curb appeal. What you did for the interior was outstanding.
Really cool to know the house sold in 5 days and over the asking price. Thanks!
$20,000 over the asking price!!! The big lesson, after she made structural and appliance upgrades, is finding and placing furniture that fits an open floor-plan. She basically closed off the space with too much old and un-matching furniture and shoes. It looked like a garage sale in there.
When she finally got out of her own way she was able to sell it. This was a nice job.
One of he best transformations of this series!

I thought she was one of the most irritating people you’ve had on this show!
Whaaaaaaat??! How can this woman say "not my style" when visiting the other house - in her house there is granny style combined with zero style!! 🥺
Even my late, great granny at age 96 had an incredible sense of style. 🤣
You did a wonderful job on changing the house to a beautiful livable space!!❤️
this is one of the most spectacular changes I've seen on 'Unsellables' so far. heartfelt Congratulations!
Ohhhh what a difference your decorating makes!
Yay! So happy for Simone! Great job ya’ll

Anthony Sayers sp ? is the sweetest, greatest at all he does !!!
The shoes are escaping from the cupboard 😂 😂😂

Even how she says "Oh. Ok."
and can't afford pictures or up-to-date décor, but clearly can afford loads of pairs of shoes
@@Xombert should could have at least bought a shoe rack for all those shoes!
Yeah, that is the life of a Realtor...lol! I love my job, but we definitely earn our money!
@@Xombertto be fair those shoes looked kinda cheap. She probably had a lot of them from before buying the house. And they definitely cost less then materials and labour for built in shelves and generally remodeling a house.
The homeowner has such a great personality! She makes this episode!
It's still a terrible place for a first floor bathroom! 😂
I like both ladies. I think the host of the show is old time Hollywood beauty. I like the seller of house as well
Great episode! I loved the transformation it looked fantastic!
It's beautiful now!!!
I'd like to know what Simone did with the $70,000 in renovations.
Bought shoes!
she put in that badly thought out washroom eating up the footstep in the front room. She not only has no sense of "style"...she has no business sense either.
Well clearly all the kitchen appliances are new. From one of the opening shops it looks like she had a new roof put on.
Welcome to the worlds tiniest living room in a rather good size home! Good luck getting to the bathroom with furniture in the way, lol!
The dining room light fixture isn’t even over the table, lol, and the postage stamp sized rug is laughable!!
I was wondering about that bathroom, too. What an impractical place to put it, no matter what the function of the room.
Great job. Homeowners don't be afraid to go to second hand stores or good will for items as well. To save money. FYI
Impressive 👌
you can tell she put in the washroom and instead of utilizing the dead space under the stairs...she ate up the limited space in the front room. She's one of those "first thought" and go type people instead of thinking what works best.
seen. OH DEAR.......... the house of shoes! Good job.
Shoes are Marching out 😆
What happened to the bathroom in the dining room. They moved the door of the closet but what about the bathroom.....????
Looked to me like it was still there.
The former dining room became the front sitting room. The bathroom is to the left of the floor lamp in the newly staged front sitting room. The new dining room is the room that had the five sofas.
They should have just eliminated the closet and made it a walk-through to the bathroom.
@@gurubhaikhalsa9337 Great idea but maybe the toilet was against the wall of the closet.
Perhaps if she bought less shoes she would have had money for paintings and vases. I'm sure there was a Goodwill in her city where you can get some good things cheap.

The dining set in her living room was old-fashioned. lol
Oh Lord I am hooked love it
"Not my style" says the woman who decorates only with mountains of shoes.

Wow that’s a lot
Not your style?? You don’t have style 🤦♀️
"That's not my style" is so rude. You're not there to be critical of other peoples style - especially when you have none yourself. I'm glad Sophie stood up to her being so opinionated.
I wonder where Simone is now and where she lives.
these crazy people don't understand that they need to declutter, and then they take all their crap to the next home
That’s a good thing sticker on oven
Nice wooden floor I sell next year started 0
De clutter garage then cleaned it fresh, new room, flat, garage
Going to get loft cleared and cleaned by specialist to do same again potential for a room, officf
Front room more inviting with only one couch
Too funny that she couldn’t see how granny like her house was. The furniture was too ugly for words. Sophie likes big red poppies just like her sister Kirstie on love it or list it U. K.
This is a rerun. The owner is really clueless.
How do I hire Anthony?
This is a VERY old video.
The seller's style always needs to evaporate in favor of the buying public's style. You're trying to get someone else interested in the place you want to leave.
Who pays for the changes?
Must be a millipede. Only reason to need so many pairs of shoes . Probably could have made a few mortgage payments with what they cost.
Why are they painting without a tarp covering the wood floors? You can see the floors are speckled with paint. Yikes!
All i need is just some chairs i can't afford them in my rented room
Ill tell ya what builds n defines our arms...having n loading our wood stove..lol She n her crew are ausome!!! Actually you are very kooth.. quite tackful n elegant with you choices of wardrobe..GODblz Bsav LivnluvinCHRIST love p.h.
She won’t want to move after 😆
Where is this? For 469K????
That’s all the clutter. We all have our little quirks
I like Simone but not the way her home was at the beginning.
The neighbors house is a huge issue.
She says " NOT MY STYLE " When
she definitely " HAS NO STYLE "
Christ brown curtains again!!!
I am not a fan of the final decor. No No No.
I don’t see why you have to change things? Whoever is buying the house is buying the house 🏡 they can change it after they buy it. Geez
Have you sold a house?
Lordy she is arrogant and demanding.
She’s 30 but can’t be without her friends? Strange

She talks about all that she couldn't afford yet she has ALL those shoes. Guess where she likes to spend her money.
Do these peole ever consider turning their home into a rental property?
That comparable house was awful...UGLY....ESPECIALLY the kitchen. I don't blame her for not liking it. Brown, red & green? 🤢
It's all very old fashioned this must be a very very old video 😒
Difficult and stubborn girl
The presenter... Never seen such a bossy woman
You must not get out much.

It said in the video the renovation cost was $4023
This is the show. It’s a 1/2 hour program. This is the concept of the show. They always state how much was spent.
Are you sure you watched the whole video?
