      Even if that is true, it also makes it harder for everyone else to afford living there. Housing prices are high enough as it is. This just contributes to the problem so many people are facing, affordable housing.

    This is the best restoration and improvement of a home I've seen since I used to watch "This Old House" on PBS. I am extremely impressed with the skill and care taken with this restoration. I can't imagine what sort of squatters were living in this house prior to its restore. The exterior and especially the interior of the home were literally ghastly, as if no human could ever hope to live in such utter filth as was left behind. I'd say whatever asking price for the restored home is worth it because the before and after condition proves this home's restored value.

      I was always taught that as well , I was taught to use cement board , Purdy etc then seal it with a waterproof membrane. I recently remodeled 2 bathrooms in a 50 yr old home , the 2 bathrooms / shower were roughly 30 years old so I was expecting mold and rot . The contractors had used green board so I was dreading the demolition day . To my surprise not 1 single stud had mold or rot , the green board had just started to have a small area of mold. But considering the age and the heavy use I was expecting much more, the mold was in the same spot where water drips from a shower curtain edges.

    Some of the points I could share with this renovation....
    1. Would be far better to put ceiling insulation before installing ceiling drywalls.
    2. It would be far easier to install the flooring before installing all the interior doors.
    3. It would be much easier to paint the entire house before installing floors.
    4. Some say it's crucial to paint the tub walls with redguard to prevent water leaking behind tile. But I've heard some states don't require it based on building codes.
    Other than that it's a great job.

      ... or they know where to cut corners. Often the problem with house flipping is they use the cheapest materials that do not have durability. One thing I noticed was they were skimping on screws. Those drywall and cement boards only had nails on the edges and nothing in the center. You can see they put tape on the edges but no hole screws were visible in the center. This will mean the walls will have movement and for the tiles, that can mean cracking in the grout. I also wouldn't call that house high-end with RTA kitchen cabinets. I would say that the house most likely fits the neighborhood.
      All said, it still looked like a good house flip (minus what I mentioned about the drywall).

      These guys did a great job on this place. I know it happens, but I personally just can’t fathom people ‘living’ in one big garbage dump.
      Years ago my brother and his girlfriend each sold their houses and bought a house in a very nice neighborhood. They pooled what money they had they got a house that had almost as much garbage as this one. He took video footage of the way the place had looked to prove what it had looked like & how much work they had had to do. The previous owners had even let their dog(s?) defecate in the house. [Or perhaps they weren’t let out or walked and had to go somewhere.] The garage was full of stuff - unopened bottles of booze, huge bottles of pills, examination supplies and equipment. Evidently the guy had been a gynecologist…turned used car salesman. Yikes!
      The two of them worked like people obsessed to turn the place around. This was on top of their jobs. I wonder how they even had time to sleep. They got through it really fast. Oh, my brother is a perfectionist too. They ended up with a beautiful home.

      'I would have doubled the room sizes ...' and lose the target market. That is a family home in a what looks like a working class neighbourhood and not some big house in a sprawling sub-division.

    They basically stripped it down to the studs, which was pretty much necessary due to all of the junk/neglect. Looks like they didn’t replace the batt insulation for some reason.

    Nicely done guys. Only one problem... same one I have. My mother lives in a 2500 sq ft home that used to belong to her mother. It has a 2500 sq ft completely finished basement in it that my mom used to live in. When her mom passed my mom moved upstairs into the house and virtually abandoned the basement intact, food still in the working fridge, dishes still in the cupboards, etc. All she uses it for now is junk storage and (even worse) her cats! My wife and I are thinking about selling our home when I retire next year and moving there to take care of her. We will have money to renovate but here is the rub... you spend a lot to renovate a house but if the neighborhood is crap you will never make back your money! Still not sure if I want to do that or just buy another house...

  • @smiler0616

      Floors are right out of the 80's. I had to go see the date of this video because I figured it was from years ago. Surprised these are the finishes they chose.

    Beyond incredible. Meticulous job. My only question is why solar wasn’t installed on the rooftop? That would be an additional sales attractant and make “running” the place much cheaper.

    • @kyyuhl

      Could be from squatters or animal infestation. I'm renovating a house that looked almost as bad as this on the inside. Nobody has lived in it since the early 90s. Racoons and squirrels had gotten inside and collapsed all the ceilings and chewed up the wiring. And birds stuffed all sorts of trash everywhere in the walls to make nests out of. It was a chore for sure.

    I'm a NZer and I envy people in Canada and the States for their basements!
    Basements are almost unheard of over here. Not sure why. Could be due to earthquake building codes, high water-tables, dampness in winter (our winters are cold and wet, and many homes have dampness problems).

    • @Debbie-y8h
      @Debbie-y8h 6 місяців тому

      I understand we live the southern part of the US. We do not have basements either. Our reason in the state of Alabama is that we are sitting on a bed of limestone, plus high humidity levels, creating mold in the basement. We lived in the state of Colorado and had a basement. We loved it. But, it is very low humidity in the Rocky Mountains.
