Loved the first house, it has that old charm and with some renovations it has so much potential. I get that location wise it may not be the best move but I would pick this one over a suburban neighbourhood any day.
Sale is pending.
Same here. I would remove the loft thing and would have a living room with high ceiling/window.
UPDATE : first one sold for over 1 million on Feb 26,2024
@@stacypeters2856 yeah, they probably over-bid on these prices. 870 k for that? in Canada that's like a small 2-bdrm condo in Toronto
The first one was unbelievable!
And for the price?! Wow! Information on that one...please?
Yeah a cozy closet with no privacy. Bargain!
I like the first condo the most, it's playful and cozy with all little spaces and such. The third is a bit weird, like it too, and leaves you enough to renovate.
You should bring up HOA fee's, home owners insurance and taxes. While doing these videos on looking at places.
Yeah in LA for a condo in hollywood the HOA fees are probably insane.
@@PathwaysOfZen I live in Las Vegas and because of all the forest fires and floods in california . My home owners insurance in nevada when up!. Home owners insurance companies are also leaving california and raising home owners insurance. I would hate to see how much people in california are seeing their rates go up.
I was able to dump on home owners insurance company and go with one way cheaper. I don't think people in california can do that with companies leaving the state.
Agreed. Its not just high fees. Some COA rules are so bad, you should walk away.
@@PathwaysOfZenas an LA resident. HOA fees can range from 200 to 1000.
@@romans1227 to 1000? you must not be looking in the right places, I've seen over 2500 a month HOA for a studio - I didn't dare look up 3 bedroom HOA there
Love that first home! Didn't realize you could get really decent condo(s) for under a million in LA ☀
I'm home shopping for myself in LA and there are actually SFH's for 750k if you are willing to live in the SFV valley , Santa Clarita or far out like Glendora etc ... its still considered Los Angeles County but not walkable/more suburban
HOA easily minimum $500 on top of a mortgage on that one FYI
@@Someone-og1yy yeah, nobody actually considers that "LA"
First condo looks like it has good natural light. When a house is painted with lighter colors it gives the rooms appear that it has more light vs darker colors.
That first condo was so beautiful 😍 I don’t think it even needs many changes, it has such a classic look
the first one is amazing, i wouldn't miss that one
I’ve been in the building of no. 1. I would vote that unit for a 2 year stay and move on. Location in Hollywood is prime and will always be desired. Idk if that really matches with you though, just thinking investment wise for your first LA purchase.
Im glad you didnt put an offer on the last one, i was thinking "No!, dont do it! The lighting is a deal breaker and youll regret it!" 😊
That north facing one was so cool! It reminded me of Tara Michelle’s, before her reno, but with mid century vibes.
Your list of requirements is EXACTLY the same as mine. (I could maybeeee survive without the hot tub) maybe we'll be neighbors in the future lol
Shelby, I loved your reaction to the built in vacuum. Im so glad you didn't go for the place that was north facing. You and the sun are best buddies!!!
1st condo one is a steal but neighborhood has to be one that you could make your community. Coffee shops, small restaurants and businesses make a huge difference.
by the freeway?
My fiance and I bought a fixer upper in the last townhouse's area (I know exactly which unit this is for sale), so we have pretty much the exact same layout. We aren't flippers, just normal people slowly making this place our own. The previous owner made some small changes in 2009, but otherwise untouched since it was built in 1974. It has been CHALLENGING since we didn't buy it with a reno budget to make changes right away. It was definitely interesting listening to your comments about it as it's pretty much the same as my own home! I'm actually jealous that that owner kept so much wood intact. Our previous owner did the landlord special and slapped bad white paint over all of it, but we have been stripping/sanding to bring the 1970s midcentury charm back.
Shelby, you are a true inspiration. Grounded, transparent, logical. ❤❤❤
Shelby, the 1st Condo was perfect for lighting, high celings, added loft, storage, and views!
The 2nd Townhome had excellent lighting with the 2 car garage & pool! Ask Jamie if she knew about Feng Shui, when showing you places? Still I do love home tours! Onward to the next one. 🏖⛵️🏡
The first one was amazing! Such a good price for LA too
the first one was so unique ! loved it
Shelby the second townhouse would be the one that I would take because a two car garage in LA is very hard to find.
I really like the second one. The garage is awesome! Thanks for these tours.
So excited to see the whole process!
Hey Shelby, I went to high school with you! I don't think we ever talked but i found your channel and thought it was cool to see someone I went to school with is a successful UA-camr! Best of luck to you and great content~
The first one was absolutely brilliant! Hope you do more of these house tour videos until you buy the one you like.
Omg, haven't seen Shelby in 4 years, so glad she popped up on my feed. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I just want to say that your hair is so so so beautiful in this video! Love the cool tone!
Loved looking around the houses you showed us existed too see what you show next and what you pick.👍🥰
Hooray to the coming of RENO VLOGS!!! 🎉🎉
I brought when prices and interest rate were both down, it can happen. More likely interest rate goes down and prices stay the same so payment will be lower. fixer upper means lower property taxes even after the renovation if you don't add bathrooms or bedrooms. you could add a hot tub in the backyard if buying a single family home.
So exciting to watch! Good luck 🤞 🎉
I loved that first house! I totally could see myself living there lol. Sunny with a California feel to it. I loved the doors. I even loved the kitchen countertop. And the price seemed pretty good.
I loved it the 1st one! So unique!
The vibes in the first house were sooooo good!!
I really liked the first one. Honestly with some changes it seemed perfect for you. ❤
OMG first condo looked amazing! But I believe you will not go for that one as you already showed us the location and basically the building lol. Can’t wait to see the one you selected!!
I am loving that you are taking us along for the tours! ❤ The first one really captured my heart. The views, lighting and layout are amazing and the price point has room to update it to become spectacular. I can appreciate a good fixer-upper, but the third one would be a big no for me too. You can't improve the terrible lighting, small outdated windows, and poor views with new surfaces. It also felt far too expensive for what it is compared to the first two.
Very interesting video. Brings back memories to 1996 when we were in process of finding and buying home in the San Francisco Bay Area. We started out looking in an area 10 miles from San Francisco. Based on home prices, we needed to confine home search to condos and town houses. During our tour of properties we soon discovered a down side of attached housing. We would be touring a property and hear music, foot steps, talking, televisions, etc. from attached units. We 0:02 considered ourself lucky in that we became aware of this issue. We ended up moving our search 10 miles further out and were able to buy a detached house.
Noticed during your video you would see a washer and dryer and would comment that it was nice unit came with washer and dryer. During the time we bought our house, we were made aware that unless otherwise stated, the refrigerator, washer and dryer did not stay with the house. You might check with your agent and confirm that this is still the case.
Great job on your video. Look forward to seeing you tour more properties!
Happy Birthday Shelby. I wish everyone the best of birthday's and also, I believe that no matter what age we turn in 2024 that everyone should celebrate it in any way that they can and do it the best that they want to with friends and family. It should be celebrated in an awesome way.
nice video, keep the house tours coming !
The first condo was amazing!!
Loved the second home.
The first one has so much character! With a few updates, that place would be so stellar!
I prefer townhomes over condos. Condos feel too much like an apartment. A garage is a plus.
I love the first one. Curious to know what the condo fees are.
I would be interested to know what the condo fees/HOA’s on all of these are, maybe Shelby will include that info. on future video’s?
I can’t get over that first place. An absolute dream!!!
Your realtor doesn’t seem to know much about homes. She kinda just agrees with whatever you say. I would find someone older and more familiar with the different housing areas and homes. Great video!
I don't think you can reasonably make that assessment from a fairly short and heavily edited video. For one, I think Shelby probably understands that viewers are most interested in her personal perspective on the homes, so she's gonna edit it to include more of her own comments and opinions.
You’re not seeing the entire conversation. Shelby herself said her realtor was great so I don’t doubt that she knows about homes, condos, and townhomes.
I really enjoy the apartment/house hunting videos
The 2nd one was great!! Good luck!!
Artists will love that "North Light" condo for a home studio, as its the best to work in.
Enjoyed the tour, you’ll find the perfect place with just enough of a fixer to put your touches on it!
I can’t believe the prices for in LA! Wow! Thanks for sharing! ❤
Such a fun video!
That third house definitely has some stories! 😅 Thanks for sharing, enjoyed this!
I liked the first one a lottt
I can't believe the amount of money some young people have. Good on ya, youtube treating people well
I love the first one! Such a cool one!
Loved the first one so much!
What are the HOA dues for these units? Do the buildings have reserves? So many potential issues with condo ownership, but sadly that’s all that’s (somewhat) affordable in LA.
the first one is actually perfect
Love the 2nd one!
Loved condo #2 super nice!
Its going to be so much fun following how you fix a house up!
I'd keep looking. Try Culver City. If you do go with one of these, I'd choose 2. If you're dead-set on buying in the urban Los Angeles area, secured private parking where you control entry is critical.
She probably wants to stay north of the 10
It's incredible. I'm moving to GA and looking for a comfy house with an open floorplan and a huge kitchen with a lot of counter space, and yet, every house I see has NO counter space. And yet here in that townhouse (the 2nd property), the counter space is a dream. Wow!
Looking forward to more hours tours!!!
Shelby, I loved the font you used in this video. More readable than any others you’ve used for a long time. I hope you make it a favorite going forward.
I don’t know if your editing program gives you this option, but in general on white lettering, if you could increase the dark outline or as a dark shadow behind the words, it would be even better. We watch UA-cam on our TV and it’s always really difficult to read white letters on light backgrounds. (On anyone’s videos, not just yours.)
HOA's, taxes, earthquake and wildfire inurance on top of the regular insurance. Basically equal to a second mortgage payment. That 3rd listing had the same kitchen/dining/living room set up as my friends detached single home in La Jolla. They bought a fixer upper on a beautiful hillside lot. They remodeled the inside to a gorgeous standard. Looking forward to what home you'll eventually pick.
The second one is beautiful. Feels like something you can live in for longer than 2 years if you decide to change your mind😊
#2 in West LA is great if you can get it for 1.1 million. You are most likely to make more money from this property than the first or last. The outdoor space is great and it looks like people have pride of ownership.
The SECOND one at 7:10 looks and feels So Much nicer than [any] of the other ones.. No comparison.
the first town house its AMAZING
Each house has such great potential. Curious to see what you would have done with that last house. The right home is out there for you!
Not me living vicariously through Shelby
One of the few places in the country where prices are still up . Very surprising, good luck.
Awesome video. I noticed however, that you said you were trying to avoid getting into the valley. Let me say- I totally understand why that’s become a common sentiment among people who move to LA. I was born and raised in LA and while I was in the valley originally, I’ve been all over and I finally decided to settle at a condo in Studio City. One major reason is the SUSHI among other things (e.g. adjacency to Hollywood/WEHO just over the hill). We have the highest concentration of sushi restaurants than anywhere in LA on Ventura Blvd. It would be amazing if you would consider visiting Studio City in some of your future videos.
hmm. condo's and townhouses don't really appreciate much from my experience. I think it's much more worth it to find a house that's in the same price range, even if it's further from the city. not to mention renovations are trickier with condo's and townhouses because of hoa
Love this video! Side question- where did you get that white zip-up sweater tank top from? So cute!
The second one is my dream house
First house for me! That to me has potential if it’s renovated
the second was awesome
Hello from Gatlinburg TN, Smoky Mountains...A $100k house here is prob worth $2 mil out there ...Come say hi 🌄🐻🏞️
But then you gotta live in TN 😂
@@AlbertoGutierrez-zv1lo look up Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park... you're welcome...😅
@@TheGatlinburgHusseybeen there many times. West coast best coast!
@@Socman86 ahh, i understand completely..lol. I'm originally from Newport RI...I do Vlogs Daily here in Gatlinburg..Come say hi..When were you last here for a visit?
@@AlbertoGutierrez-zv1lo
It just has to be one's natural Tennessee
All those places are nice!! I hope you find the ✨one✨ for you!
Definitely see u getting your license and doing more home videos
my bf and i just bought our first townhome in laguna. we were sad to leave LA (culver) but just couldn’t find anything within our budget after 2 years looking! thanks for this tour ❤
Interesting choices ...what of the HOA and rules on renovation? The one problem I have with Condo/Townhomes is the HOA is so high it sometimes doubles your mortgage. Also, such a limited area to search I am surprised you found 3.
Buy #1 plz
I’d love to see you redo it.
Just moved to Seattle btw
Great video!
This is so helpful for someone who is looking for a townhouse/house in LA! I wish the pricing was better but this is LA.
Gotta love the $999,000 FIXER Upper
LA is a possible destination for me. If I make it into grad school in LA, it's likely I might stay. Love seeing these real estate videos.
that coo but you should be mad shes making million dollar homes into like 1.5 + ones lol
It's Reno Shelby time! Wonderful. show us what you can do girl. And of course, its money-making time. It's time for Shelby to show us some of her magic. Love it all.
One thing that wasn’t mentioned is that #1 probably was priced to be a “hot home” that probably involved a bidding war. That happens a lot in LA. I sold my condo recently in Pasadena after getting multiple offers. I then purchased a new place and luckily my offer was accepted right away bc it was the only one and when we were under contract someone came along trying to offer more! I dodged the bidding war but it can get really frustrating from what I’ve heard
North facing usually is preferred for light because you don’t need awnings or shutters and no heat gain from sun
I love the first one.
I want this Cali fresh design ❤
I loved the first condo. But I liked the one with the garage better. I find that safer for a woman and safer for a car. I absolutely love California. And I wish you the best of luck on your search for a home.
love ur videos 😍🥰
The just love the second house.
You have to have good light for sure. Good luck with the house hunt.
The last townhouse you looked at that floor plan is all over the Marina area. Check there.
