- In this video, I start back in 2012 when I buy a very distressed house, renovate it and then eventually sell it. I also tell some stories, show some videos and pictures along the way. Then I briefly describe some plans for future builds

Watched this a 2nd time Jesse. You, your dad, wife, children and extended family do interesting and inspiring work. Keep delivering as long as possible.
Probably bittersweet, saying goodbye to the home you put together and raised your then very young family in, Jesse! On to the new space and the memories you'll build there!
it is a little weird but we havent lived there in a while and it was for the better.
nice music. Super video. there's a lot of love , guts and work at that address. i used to build homes with my dad. we would live in and build in the flips
sometimes too
well done

What an amazing story. You should feel proud of everything you did for your family.
Boy oh boy Jesse, what a beautiful custom transformation!
As an old forester who knows trees and wood those are the most beautiful spalted maple cabinet fronts I have seen. I am sure you have your eye out for another dead and down maple tree for your ICF kitchen. I made kitchen cabinet doors, raised panel, and drawer fronts out of Black Walnut trees from the farm 40 years ago. Love your channel!!
We llike your use of gray colors, really a nice change from over used beiges and off-whites.
I am glad you and your wife's hard work has paid off
Jesse.. I tend to watch your videos mostly to see your ability to fix equipment…. Your mindset of anything is possible impresses me the most. That said, this video of you sharing a bit of your life story is very helpful to understand who you are and where you’ve been. Often, some of the other channels stay away from showing the private stuff… Unwilling to share and open up. You will do great things in life, you have a beautiful family and the opportunities will come!
Thank you
Hi, Jesse! I knew you in Andrew Camaratta container castle vídeos...since there I follow your vídeos and I admire your work and ingenuity...God bless you and family!
Congratulations from Brasil!
Excellent work.
The kitchen is Pretty,
The wood is so unique 😍
WUAO JESSE I ADMIRE YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR PROGRESS, YOU DESERVED ALL BECAUSE YOU ARE A HARD WORKING MAN. NICE TO SEE YOUR STORY. WE ALL LEARN EVERYTHING WE KNOW BY LIVING IT. SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME. I HAD TO LEARN A LOT OF THING TO BE A SURVIVOR IN THIS LIFE. GOD MAY CONTINUES TO BLESS YOU ALL. YOUR KIDS MUST BE PROUD OF YOU. G.B.Y.A. I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Loved the video and the story. You did great work on this home, the pride in your work shines through.
Happy for you that you have sold the house. Now, next project.
Great work, Jesse! I’m thankful for the entertainment you provide to me and so many others! I’m super proud of you and your family, getting ahead with hard work!
Very nice job. The kitchen cabinets are beautiful.
Very impressive Jesse, not many people would be able to start a family, renovate a house, grow a business, and work on as many other projects as you have in 10 years. Keep up the awesome work ethic.
I did get very emotional watching this. It amazes me how much effort you put, not only in your work, but in your family and life. My best hopes for your next project and for the family that will have this amazing house to call a home.
Jesse has really outdone himself on this video. Fascinating story and one I can sort of relate to. We fixed up an old house ourselves 32 years ago. But just not as extensively. The one here turned out much better.
Great job! Most people would not put in the work to take a house from dilapidated to beautiful.
The single biggest idea that is transmitted from this video is just how proud you are of the results of the effort
and design that you put into this house. I believe you should be as the results speak for themselves. Best to you
Jess.
Excellent. The ICF house is just a stepping stone, you will be onto bigger and better in no time.
It good to see someone save an old house and add on like that. I like your work. You always get more for the money with hard work elbow grease. I think remodel old houses is a worth wile venture. Your family looks at all you work and it rubs off in that alone it is worth the hardship. Congratulations on your successful venture. I would remodel houses to flip
With desire and ability you can develop any skill you need. Probably the best built house around. The new owners are very fortunate. Love your content, keep it coming.
I have been a subscriber since Andrew introduced you and you were starting on your workshop at the ICF property. Everything I have seen you do has been top notch. Made me feel real good to hear how it has been paying off for you as you have honed your skills and grown your family. Can't wait to see what comes in the future.
Bittersweet! Gotta love a good fixer upper story! Hoping to watch some auctions this spring & find something of this caliber. Look forward to seeing the new place after the ICF fortress is finished!
What a amazing job! How can I not mention how adorable the kids are!
thank you
You put a lot of work into it and came out looking like a brand new house.
Props for all the attention to detail. That is something people appreciate.
One of the best channels on YT. Thanks for keeping it real Jesse.
Awesome job brother. Thanks for sharing. Truly appreciate your insight, talent, and genius. Have a great one and please continue to post and share your brilliance.
JESSE,, you really do good work and i would buy anything that you built , i been following u for 2 yrs now and u should be proud of all that u have done..
Thanks for taking us on your journey down memory lane. Truly a labor of love, you never get cash value out of such custom work but the experience is unmeasurable Jesse! Will continue to follow your future journeys!
No words to describe your hustle. The struggle is real when you trying to make every penny count. You did well. At the end it all feels good when the job gets done.
Thank you for this lovely video. The story of this home was heartwarming, and I'm sure it will be sad to let it go. You put your heart and soul into every inch of this house. Now, it's time to move on, and your new home will be every bit as awesome as this one. Your attention to detail is simply amazing.
Exactly his family and business outgrew that house but it was a great stepping stone for both
Awesome job mate, you’re truly talented with a loveliness supportive family behind you. Love all your work and enjoy watching your videos 👍
thanks
This video clearly demonstrates how hard work always pays off. Great video, Jesse!!
Well done, Jess. Its been a pleasure taking this journey with you and your family.
Well Done Jesse !!!! Enjoyed listening to and watching all about your life so far. Can't wait to see what the next 10 years will bring.
Been watching your videos for 4 years and I would never have been able to recognize you till this video. Thought I had the wrong video at first
3:04 - Angels. Cherish it. It goes by fast. God bless you and your family Jesse, Great videos. Thank you
Great life story! Hard work pays off.
Terrific. I remodeled while living in a house. Swore I'd never do that again so had a new one built. Swore I'd never do that again so went back to remodeling my own. You can take a great deal of pride in your work that way. You make awesome projects come to life. Congrats
Jesse, this is truly amazing!!! Thank you again for letting us share the ride on another epic adventure. Lots of love to you and the fam. Stay safe my friend.
You did very well with this project, Grasshopper. You've come a long way with your knowledge and skills.
What a wonderful video. Thanks for sharing this slice of your life. You are a truly gifted. I am a detail person and I only saw perfection in every craft. I look forward to all your videos because you do so many different things.
Yes Jesse we took that path back in the 80 brought our first £11,000 house and renovated that and 3 others we now live in a £600,000 home I am in many ways like you although I started out as a Plumber and gained all the other skill needed to repair and new build our homes it is the most rewarding experience a man can have knowing he can provide food and shelter for his family !
Great Job Jesse 3:51 I got that same crane for Christmas like 10 years ago. Maybe thats what started my addiction lol.
I never miss one of your videos, Jesse. Keep up the great work in both building and videography!
Hi Jesse my name is Todd I just subscribed to your Channel I really enjoy how patient you are working on many of your projects I have recently watched especially when you repair Old equipment such as your telehandler and your other assorted purchases I'm from Madison Wisconsin and very interested in all the work you do and have done
Thank you
Fantastic Jesse you did great with this house! Hard work’s payoff 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great job you have done the last 10 years. Thanks for sharing it. 🙂
After reading just a few comments first, I am aware of how many people have taken notice of how hard you worked for this dream. I am a long time follower and feel that every minute spent watching your channel is a learning experience well spent time. Great video Jesse
This is how we built our house in 1960. Every paycheck was going to part of the project. Somehow, times passes and now our house is considered old but I wouldn't part with it for anything. After your fixed your other house, surprised you sold it. You sure have the work in it.
The work you have done on this house is beautiful. I'm so excited to see your new house completed!
Jesse, hard work pays off. Congratulations on your success history. I love the ICF house, it resembles 90% of the houses here in Puerto Rico that have to be built in concrete, thanks to hurricanes.
Damn Jesse, you do amazing work! You've got an attention to detail that has become bery rare these days. You should be very proud of yourself, and the work you do!
Every young person buying a first home should be required to watch this video.
Just as an FYI on not being lazy.
It’s more work to renovate and rebuild a house or garage than to build a new garage or house because you demo and build back when a new construction home is just built! No demo! I renovate old houses in Wayne County Michigan for 30 plus years and work a full time job 100 hours every 8th day! The work will after 40 years break you down so be safe and always have two extra hands for extra safety!
American dream rags to riches. You are a very talented person Jess.👏👍
Stratford, NY baby! I have camped out up there at Stewarts Landing .... I recall drinking beer and eating venison in the road (for some reason) at Stewart's landing. Redneck paradise up there, lol.. love the project in the 429er land. I think people will really appreciate footage from there. Great walk though on the house remodel, great cabinets and shower tile.
I have been there when there was like 100 or more people there, I dont know if they still do that or not but sometimes even in the winter there is alot of people on the ice there
I did so many things exactly like you, first house was a dump, seller held the mortgage, renovated, made mistakes and renovated again,LOL great journey, and its all worth the effort, I stll miss that first house, 10 years of great memories, Life goes on, Two houses later ,,,Im writing this from the ICF house I built my family 10 years ago, and its for sale now, see what the next adventure brings.
sounds like your life is very similar
Hi Jesse. It was fun watching this video and seeing your family thru the years. Nice work!
Hi Jesse, You have a fabulous work ethic!!! I love the remodel and addition to your now old house that looks new. You're right the showers look terrific and I would definitely do again. You are a kind,caring, and knowledgeable contractor! I love your channel and long time subscriber from California. Also, for those who tuned out for the narrative part they missed out as you do it very well buddy 👍 God bless and take care you and your family prayers to all 🙏
Great work, Jesse. The work you have done on this house is beautiful. You've done an amazing job on everything Jesse. Keep up the great videos.
You knock it out of the park, well done Sir!👍
Wonderful video, all the awesome memories and lessons learned. All the best, you have come so far. Peace and good fortune and good health to you and your family. 😃
When we were young we went trough a few trials also. It made me learn a lot on how to build and the right way.
Great story of the house, maybe even priceless but you've outgrown it and time to move on. Story of this vid is put together like a tv series, one day it can be watched back as a memory of your life, family and career from almost nothing to wherever it's going. Hope the next project does that too 👍
12/3/22. 2day was compilation of your blessed & talented early married years..before kids..as you bought & totally renovated your 1890's 2story house. Wonderful video, lighting & narration showing we viewers both the development of the remodel & beautiful kids! Impressed with your honest & sincere conversation as you tell your story & play the video history. Absolutely a great video today! Congratulations on the sale of this house! Excellent detail information on foundation, framing, electrical, plumbing, roofing, insulation, kitchen, flooring, HWH, wood stove, bathrooms, basement, new addition...on & on. Great accomplishment & also great cooperation from your wife! Stay safe & carry on! 👍👍👍👍🍷😊
Good job, very nice.
Tremendous, Stupendous, Glorious, Amazingly Ambitious.
Jesse, enjoyed the video. Watched you build the addition and heating system in the basement. I’ve watched you, Andrew, your parents in the NY area for a long time, I guess back when AC was starting his castle. I was married in 66, money was short, lived payday to payday. Like you I learned as I went never paying anyone to do anything without trying it first. My cousin built a chimney on the back of our house, I had dug a basement by hand and then build a wood stove to heat house and domestic water. It was a hard life but we enjoyed it. I worked she reared the 2 children and later helped rear our one granddaughter. Today kids want everything but don’t think about the cost for interest. They don’t want wait until they can save the money or build as they get the money. I’m waiting each week for the video on your new house. I’m not able to do any of this work but I enjoy watching others do it. I’ll be commenting again take care, Stay Safe.
You can't beat that spalted maple for uniqueness.
Absolutely LOVE the spalted maple cabinets and that they came from a tree right there. 👍🏻
Congrats Jesse I've watched all the videos on this house it's how I found your channel that video was the addition concrete walls were just up again congrats
Jessie excellent video content, editing, and narration. 👍👍👍👍
Great video Jesse. Probably my favorite one so far! I enjoyed the story of how you turned this tax sale house into a home for your family. Those kitchen cabinets are off the chart with the home saw milled, spalted maple 🍁. You should be very proud of that project!
I am just month from buying brand new apaertment in EU. I lived in renting apartments for 12 years, not any more. Total squares: 180m2 including parking, garden and 3 bedrooms. Now I will pay housing loan for 25 years 🤣. I live in big city, houses are superexpensive.
Amazing cabinets!! 👏🏼👏🏼❤️ beautiful home, sounds like it’s gonna be a really warm winter too💕
Those cabinets I would never get tired of .Such beautiful character and well built I might add !
You might be the hardest working guy I have ever seen. Great job.
I love the huge amount of outlets he put in. I always get frustrated when there isnt an outlet nearby.
I built my house from the ground up, a cedar siding A frame. I’m actually thinking of buying another house to move off the hill, and I’m so torn about selling this one because of all the blood sweat and literal tears. I was like you, I got the land which was a briar patch for 400 a month til it was paid for and brought materials home from jobs til I finished it. Now my home values around 180,000$, but it’s worth so much more to me. Wish me luck lol
It can be lovely taking a walk down "memory lane" the good times and the not so good times. Thank you for sharing your journey Jesse.
Jesse, I got away from your vids, but now back. Truly amazing, down to Earth life. Much respect, Brother. I'm the same way.. .restoring a house in northern Maine right now.
Hello Jesse and family, thank you for sharing your life with us and for the many beautiful moments in your videos. 👍 I wish you all the best and a healthy peaceful family life. 💛 Until the next video and warm greetings from Berlin Germany, the Roadie ✌
Man, I loved hearing your story. Your drive and desire to do better for your family is inspiring! Love the videos…keep it up!
Some things touch and speak to me. Your struggles and achievements that you share are so real. I truely admire you. THANKS!
Anybody could feel confident that the repairs and remodeling to the house had been done right with you doing the work. Good luck in selling.
Man, I know the feeling like my daddy said you have to crawl first before you walk, and walk before you run. Thanks for sharing your story, Jesse
Good job. My first house was condemned and abandoned for 7 years when I bought it. I put everything I had in to buy it and was living off of my jar of coins and pay cheque to pay cheque for years while fixing it up. Totally worth the effort and really put me ahead long term.
Giving a tour of your house that you rebuild yourself and telling the story that goes along with it is a good video. Not my idea of a boring all talk video. By the way I find all your videos interesting and entertaining . I thank you for sharing your work your family and parts of your life with us . I hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas. May God bless you and your family.
The cabinets are beautiful! You can be so proud of yourself. Just found your channel!!❤❤
Awsome work done on your first house . I have been a cabinet maker as well as framer carpenter for both residential commercial construction most of my life . i am very impressed on all you have done . keep it up .God bless you and your family . Rock on
Thank you
Great renovation on the ole girl. Nice job
Hard work,determination,gets you ahead every time.A big shout out to your parents no doubt for pushing you forward,AND a good wife for standing behind you when things don't go as planned and times are tough.All good people.Really nice job!
My first house was a disaster, although my dad was able to help me buy it, and loan me some money for materials to beat it into shape. I had a completely different sort of full-time job as a scientist at a government lab, but every weekend and night, for years, I worked on the house, and learned carpentry, plumbing, wiring (thanks to a very tolerant building inspector, who recommended some books after he saw the mess I made on my first try!), concrete work, and a few other things. But then I got married, and my wife wanted to move to Silicon Valley, so we hired all the remaining jobs done, and then sold the house (giving my dad the profit, even though he wanted me to keep it, so he got a reasonable return on his loan). After that, my salary (and my hours at work) went up so much, we just hired everything done. Now I'm almost 70, retired, and instead of redoing a bathroom or pouring a patio, I watch videos of people doing those things. It's not as satisfying, but it's easier on my back...
Absolutely brilliant job Jesse and thanks for including your children . 👍👍🇬🇧
Great work on that house. That kitchen is really nice. What surprises me about houses in America in general is the lack of privacy or fencing. Your neighbors can just look in and see everything if they wanted. In Australia, especially Melbourne privacy is everything. Tall fences that don't have gaps separate every property. I wouldn't enjoy going into the backyard knowing that like 6 houses can see everything you do lol.
yea that is the main reason for us moving. not enough land, even though the lot was a double lot
I have had to struggle like your first startup when I first got married. Struggling just to make enough for the family!! And my First and Second house were the big learning curves for me as well!
It seems to be a great privilege to build a new home from the ground up in the same area as your Mom and Dad!! Super great to see you prioritizing Family as you have been!!! All the best from Surrey BC Canada.
Making our kitchen cabinets from rustic hickory we milled on our Wood Mizer sawmill. A great feeling to go from tree to final form.
Your spalted Maple looks awesome
