If this became a Netflix show I’ll totally watch it. Who’s with me?
Right? She’s so good at it. It looks so nice!!
Yes
Oh ya
Nah guys, unless she was able to continue working on her own and not get her ideas polluted by bigwigs who think they know best.
Def agree on this!!!!
The fact that you said: "I hope that one day I can make it up to you guys"
I mean, you literally spends thousands of dollars just to entertain us every week. You flip houses, you buy clothes that are worth more than my entire wardrobe. You make us viewers happy with just being your enthousiastic self and I honestly think you don't owe us anything!! The reason we watch your videos is because we love you and the content you make. Every time when I get a notification that you uploaded a video, I instantly get excited, because I've loved every video you've made for the past years! So if anything, I want to say thank you to YOU and I feel like I owe you something, because you do so much just to get us entertained ❤❤
Anne, thank you for writing such an eloquent note that represents (at least right now) the roughly 800 people that feel the same way !!! You couldnt have said it better !! 💙 💜 💙 💜 💙 💜 💙 💜
EXACTLY🙌🏼❤️
Exactly! I don’t even care about brand name/fancy clothes or makeup but I watch because Mia and family are a breath of fresh air!
I agree!
Mia's videos are always so wonderful!
Exactly!! I think we owe her thanks for entertaining us and for being authentic and let’s face it just “nice” and beyond in this present world where everyone always changes at the top and things everywhere are filled with hate and drama. It’s nice to tune in to something drama free with people who love each other and laugh and are still humble. Truly a breath of fresh air. We need more like her and the whole family.
I understand finances are personal but I wish you broke down the costs and talked more about the business side of the reno!! Maybe do another video with your mom explaining this?
If you understand why are you asking? If you are interested do some research on your own.
@@lauralanthalasa7 do you need a nap
@@tourmii she needs more than a nap lol a nap cant fix this
same!!!!!
@@lauralanthalasa7 yea I agree
Ok, but can we talk about the cherry sweater? The. Freaking. Cherry. Sweater.
I NEED THIS SWEATER!! Anyone know where she got it??
@@lumie444 its by lirika matoshi, you can find her on Instagram or just by typing her name in google
Yeah and its 270 dollars if you are in that deep
It’s gorgeous but expensive lol
AND THE BANGS
"every single door in my life that is open has been open because of you guys." NO I AM ALREADY CRYING MIA WHATS THIS
for reall, I literally went "🥺" that whole part. Mia's such a wholesome bean.
🥺
Yes 😭
🥺🥺🥺
Too cheesy 😢
Just when you thought the maples family couldn't get any better
Ahahahah family goals
Agreed!
Yah really 😝
when you are the person that can change the amount of likes from 1.7k to 1.8k...
Agree!
Turning that “dead” space in the upstairs bathroom into proper storage was brilliant. That’s what we did in our guest house, it has the same A frame structure. Good job!! I’d love to start flipping homes as well. ✨🌻
MIA WHY WAS THIS NOT A SERIES! THIS TURNED OUT SOOO FREAKING GOOD.
Next Netflix series you see will be called “Maples Renovations” and you bet that I’ll be binging it.
“Chip ‘n’ Flip Productions” 😄
This is a great idea
Omg can this actually be a thing cause I love it
Maple Makeovers
“Maples Makeovers”
i actually kinda like your staging rather than the professionals. yours looks more homey and living.
Omg i thought the same thing. 😱🤭🤭😂
And more modern! The staging was a bit fussy for me.
yah looks like an actual house that someone would live in over a magazine shoot
Mia, you're my favorite UA-camr because you always thank your fans and show gratitude. Not many UA-camrs acknowledge that their fans play a big role in their success and it's just so refreshing to hear you thank your fans and acknowledge us. Of course you are very talented and deserve everything that comes your way, but I also like that you are still humble. Please, never ever change that about you! 💕
Love how honest you were! House-flipping is presented as such a get-rich quick thing on youtube and tv nowadays and that's definitely not always how it is...love the finished product!
I could never flip a house, because afterwords I would just want to move on in...😂
Facts!!
Yeah 😂 I’d just flip my own house, live in it, then sell it later lol
Same
I’m surprised this video is so short... I was expecting it to be like when they redid her grandparents place. I would’ve loved to see the whole process of choosing each rooms carpets and accents and everything
yess, that would've been fun, but of course because it was over 2 years it would've been tricky to do so. It's only about 25 min because it's just tips and the before and after as the title states :)
I was literally prepared to watch an hour long video and I got so sad when I saw it's only 25 minutes (considering it took 2 years to make this video, I think this deserved more camera work). I would have really liked to see the whole process, expecially the flip itself but the idea of sharing the experience of flipping a house and making money from it is good as well. still, I hope we will get another video or she will do a more flip based one.
@@xkatzz I’m not saying the title was misleading, I’m saying a 2 year project like this you would anticipate more content to be yielded from it. Also, just from her teasing this project for a while now I was expecting a larger reveal. I’m obviously a fan because I was excited for it, all I said was that I was surprised that it was only 24mins long.
@@ashleighspurgeon2819 I agree... I was honestly really surprised that Mia didn't make a whole series on this. It would have loved to see the whole process. Dont get me wrong..I love Mia & her content... but the way she was hyping it up I was expecting something more.. like a series or a really long video. Because they video was so short, it felt rushed. Maybe filming it would have been way to much work. 🤷🏼♀️
I was thinking the exact thing 🥺
My husband stages homes for a living and they have done studies that show when a house is staged it not only sells for more but sells SO much faster. Some homes will be on the market for months then his company stages them and they sell in about a week or two its crazy!
That's funny cause I've been looking looking at houses and I hate when they're staged. It's so much easier for me to imagine what I'd want to do with the house if it's empty!
@@tourmii right it’s weird to me too! I like to imagine my own stuff in an empty house! But I guess some people need more help to see a house as a home 😨
I think its good to stage smaller spaces with no storage built in so that you could see how you can add storage and how the home could function. It can give you an idea of what size sofa you could realistically fit or where to store clothes and bedding in an ottoman bed if there's no closets/wardrobes for example.
However for a larger home where that's not really an issue I like to see it practically empty with kitchens and bathrooms the only spaces that look almost done as the only thing you can add it small decor and a few appliances. They don't need much work. I like it too look clean and basic so white walls that are easy to paint any colour onto, no clutter or random furniture etc.
@@tourmii same
"I don't think you have to be an expert to TRY." That's it. That's it right there. That's an amazing statement and so true of so much more than just this project. Frame those words and hang them on a wall because those are some key words for life!
'The Maples House Flipping Show' Anyone?? I'm already hookeeeed
that literally sounds amazing and i could see it happening
yessss that sounds amaaaaaaaazing !!!!
She needs a show on hgtv
@@arianarose8068 and on TLC
Yassssss 💯 im gonna subs
if you were to ever do something like this again, i would love to see a series of the whole process😍❤️ love these videos!
Yess also Omg a name twin!!! So rare to find someone with the same spelling as me!!🥰🥰
Yesss. Mia, you should film these as you go along! One, we would love to see it, and two, you can get ad revenue as you go along!
Yes!!!
She does have a series of the whole process. You can see it here ua-cam.com/video/YUBBiUaU76g/v-deo.html
@@SolPaulino05 That is her own house, not the house she showed us in this video.
"You don't have to be an expert to try" - mia maples 💗
If you ever do this again I’d totally be interested in the entire process! Including house hunting and buying and all that!
The staging felt like it was out of a magazine, but your staging felt like it was actually LIVABLE. much easier to imagine living there.
Mia next time film the process and take us with you, so in the end if you don’t make money on the house you still made it profitable because of the videos :)
I agree! You could make it a series on your channel with multiple videos of that house reno (ex. showing the kitchen reno, shopping for supplies...etc) and if you decide to flip more than one house make seasons of that series!
“You don’t need to be an expert to try” amazing quote Mia
Shook that she said pro-cess then switched to American “process” like 10 seconds later
i saw that too i was like wtf xd
as a canadian i do the same lol
Sameee 😅
Same I was in shock 😂
See what happens after you listen to a lot of audio books. My accent is all over the map now 😂
Anyone else’s jaw hot the floor when seeing the afters?! Holy cow!!! 😱😳
At first I thought the original photo was the Reno and was like ah it’s okay then my jaw hit the floor when my high ass saw the real after photos !! She did great
the maples did so much work 😭❤️
Mia is literally the most hard-working and generous UA-camr that deserves all the love and support existed in the world I think we all agree that we love her to the moon and back❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love Mia’s staging so much more than the professional to be honest
Mia and her parents did such a beautiful job. It’s absolutely stunning.
I would have loved a financial breakdown as a separate video from costs to renovate, costs to professionally stage vs. costs to stage yourselves, contractor costs, how much you bought and sold for. I personally would have loved knowing this info! Love watching your videos and hope to see more house flips in the future! 💕
yesss i was thinking the same thing
Yes! Agreed
You repaying us?? Are you kidding me, I feel like I should be paying for this amazing content more than just watch a few 5 second commercials. We love you and you dont owe us anything, it is because of your commitment and talant that you have what you have and you deserve every bit of it! 💪🏼❤️
The upstairs bathroom cabinet idea was actually genius, I’m so impressed sheeesh
Did anyone else catch were she said she DID NOT MAKE A PROFIT
I was thinking as I was watching the video that they must have made a loss based on the fact that the house was in good condition originally and very big already so can't have been super cheap, and then the cost involved in adding in that many expensive bathrooms, redoing the kitchen, and making the basement liveable... And hiring the staging company as well. They must have spent a fortune!
In her advice, she should have added that you dont buy a huge house if you intend to flip it.
@@laurence9695 she mentioned she did want a small house originally and to be mindful of the size you’re taking on
Covid hit is the major factor. :/
Yes, I hope that means she broke even. If she did I’d count that as a win.
I wanna be Mia Maples when I grow up and she’s younger than me 😭
Same 😂
Yep
lol this. and same
Yes
Me too
I have a tip for the future: if you would have showed us before and after “blue prints” of the house it would be easier for us to understand all the changes!
Totally agree, it would be amazing if she maybe hired someone to make an animated 3D model of the rooms
Yeah or if she went level by level!
I think they don't show it on purpose because some creeps can go and find it.
@@angelhana2702 unfortunately, that makes sense
Yeah
We flipped a house, spent 3 years doing it, while living in the house. It was our first home and now we’re on to our dream home.
“For the sake of the flies, *and us*”
Literally wouldn’t hurt a fly lol
Mama Maples' laugh lives rent-free in my brain
😂😂😂
And in my heart ❤️
Yes
Yesss 😂
Beyond true! I read this an immediately heard it in my head😂
The fact she spent all that money on that house, spent 2 years of her life making it, and she didn’t even get a profit shows how pure and warm hearted she is 💕
it shows she was a first time flipper and didn't budget well, but that's how you learn. if you are able to break even, that's ideal, but most first timers lose at least 5k before getting the kinks straightened out. Mia is a quick learner and adaptive, so I'm hoping she has some more flip projects for us to watch!
@@TeenDream888 yes exactly
Hopefully she didn't incur a loss at least
@@mochi_and_me yeah
Luckily she will make money from this video 😍💕 so atleast the hard work and manual labour paid off 🙈
When she was saying how she could ever repay us I was like we should be repaying you!! You're content is incredibly amazing and you're so inspiring to watch xx You help me get through the day so it's we that should be repaying you! Xxxxx ♥️♥️
Can we just take a moment and address that Mia's interior designing is so gooddd!! I am dazzled!
I love her but to be honest it's pretty basic, instagram is full of her style.
@@lauralanthalasa7 I know, but sometimes It's really hard to understand what to put and where to put.
But, I can't say you're wrong... 👀
@@lauralanthalasa7 I agree with this. It looks nice, don’t get me wrong, but it’s always a very trendy Instagram page type of decor. I’d love to see her do a more moodier vibe instead of light neutrals with pops of color
Mia: “I don’t know how to repay you guys”
Me: *watching all of the ads in full to try to repay Mia for her constant amazing content*
I do the same thing!!!
Same, she’s literally the ONLY youtuber who’s ad i watch!
Same
Watching the ads fully does more?
I would love to watch you flip another house but more in detail like weekly updates/vlogs that way we can come along for the ride with you. You did a great job Mia
yes!! I would’ve loved to see everything more in detail because everything was so pretty but i didn’t get to see them very closely🥺
Totally agree! All that contracting work (tile, stairs, walls removed, wood work) love to see how to do those things!
Me too! I would love to follow the journey with you all! Seeing the things you struggle with, decisions you have to make, dilemmas, difficulties, fun moments and just like stupid normal things we can all relate to and learn from if we would renovate our self!
I love the idea of like monthly update vlogs or somethings, even if things don't quite "move" or seem special enough for a video. I would love to see how you did the stairs, the build in cabinets in the bathroom, the kitchen, floors, walls and tiles. That what I miss on the renovation tv programs, they always rush those parts and hurry into the reveal, but I love to see them. Not the fake drama but just the real things that can happen when you renovate.
Miaaaa how did you not turn this into a whole series?!?! It would’ve been so much more informative and fun to watch. My favorite kind of videos to watch ♥️ You did a great job!
mia's productivity and duality never ceases to amaze me wow
I've never enjoyed someone's content this much. Subscribing to this channel was literally one of the best decisions I've ever made. Appreciate all the effort and commitment!
This is mia’s audition to become a home redecorater show and honestly i’m hoooookeedd
I am SO impressed by your decorating skills!!
Mia is such a sweetheart, I look forward to each new video and rewatch the old ones often! Such a genuine, talented person! 💖
Am I the only one who thinks that she should do more of these and actually sell them to families and film it to UA-cam. This is amazing
It is! I loved this video 😍
She seriously needs her own show on HGTV!!
It is amazing and that idea is amazing. I know there’s people like me working my butt off full time trying to get myself my own place and it’s so incredibly hard. 600$ a month for one person to live, eat, entertain themselves, be able to keep in touch with family, travel, it’s nearly impossible. Something like this could help someone like me or someone who has it even worse. Like what if she flipped a van/motor home into a tiny home?!?! I seriously would sacrifice a leg for someone to help me flip a motor home into a tiny house 😭
@@hanamcclure2153 Omg yes! This has the potential to be an amazing series(s) and help so many people at the same time! I've been struggling to get out of poverty for a long time now; I'd kill for a studio apartment even, and my dream is to own a tiny home someday also!
This is an amazing idea, she could turn this into multiple series'! She could film the whole buying/flipping process, maybe even start a whole new channel just for her house flipping and decor videos. She could flip houses, tiny homes, vans, RVs, outdoor areas, etc.! She could also film the staging and selling process too. I could definitely see her with her own HGTV type of show and I think if she sold home decor at like home goods or something, it would be really successful! I also think if she did a series helping low income people get into some of these homes, like you suggested, she could possibly become really well known for it and be able to reach so many more people that she could help! Not to mention, when it's charity, it's a tax write off, so that's helpful for her to fund all this too!
Mia saying that she wasted more money than expected
Me: Watching every single ad to help her out❤️
She's literally a millionaire?????
@@bananasareblue5619 Are you serious? Of course she is. Even if the poorly researched net worth Google spits out is wrong, there is no way in hill she isn't worth over a million with her subscriber count and sponsorships etc. Don't be naive.
Yesss lol
same! didnt even skipping the 1min ads 😂
@@bananasareblue5619 She does have merch.... I genuinely can't believe you don't think she's a millionaire. A 5 second Google shows she is for one thing
OBSESSED
We need real-time DIY/house flipping Mia content!
I'm so proud of mia and her parents, I can't wait to see more room transformations and house flips!!
Mia you have so much talent, you could be an interior designer. Seriously.
I think if I’m not mistaken she’s stated before that she’s taken interior design classes online I think. Or maybe a whole course but she definitely has the eye and finger for it!
"You don't have to be an expert to try"
~Mia ,2021
this is gorgeous! i cant believe how well this came out! amazing work. definitely taking notes for when i design my new home. congrats mia!
i really love people like this. they're willing to tell you their tips and mistakes so it's easier for you your first time than to let you struggle because they had to struggle. like something about that really warms my heart ♡
One of the purest UA-camr..No drama,nothing....Mia is like a friend to her followers..Love you..
Honestly I would be down if for the next two years, she just posted room by room from start to finish of a Reno project 🥺❤️
So agree!!
You and your family really have a gift. My mind is blown!!
A series of your next house flip would be so amazing! I love how positive you are about your first time doing this all and willing to learn. It’s given me courage to really get into remodeling my home 💓
Don’t even mind watching these ads because Mia keeps showing how dedicated she is and we all know she deserves it 🥲
Yess that's what I'm doing too! 👏
Same
If you watch at least 30 seconds that is the biggest help or if its shorter the whole ad. Heard that from another UA-camr.
Damn it Mia, you are going to make me cry 😭 I think I speak for everyone when I say that you are a ray of sunshine every weekend and I love watching and supporting genuine, kind people like you. You put so much enthusiasm, love and care into to your content and that's why we keep coming back, so THANK YOU!
I'm so in love with this house! You have so many talents, it's been awesome growing with you and seeing you branch out!
Beautiful! I SUPER love how the house turned into! I am into interior decorating so I love these kind of videos and The Maple’s family could actually turn this into a family business 😍
Do you know what Mia, out of every UA-camr I watch, you literally deserve every door that’s opened for you! You really do. You’re such a kind human being, and you truly are grateful for everything you have. This is my favourite channel ✨
I’m baffled how this is only 24 minutes!? 😂
My thought exactly 😂
I thought it was going to be like 1 hour or something 😮😁
@@p43210 exactly like the house reno she did for her grandparents! 😊
Because it's not the actual transformation process, just tips and the before and after.. as the title states lmao. 💯
She should of made it a little series.
we're so proud of you mia!
This was a hugely missed opportunity Mia! Should of taken us on this journey with you for the past two years. Please document the next flip. We need it 🙏🏻
The house is stunning. You guys did a fantastic job. Your renovation/DIY content is my favourite. 💕
Okay Mias content lately has been top notch “chefs kiss”
Omg I accidentally edited this comment and lost my heart from mia😢pls help me get it back
May you get it back soon❤

@@Justdoit-co9yd i hope u get it back pretty quick fingers crossed 🤞
LOOK AT HER FREAKING SMILE THE WHOLE TIME. You can tell this is what she LOVES. That passion is so unique.
The house is stunning! Love the tips even just for doing up my own house! The decor and reno you guys did is so beautiful and timeless. The kitchen felt very studio mcgee 😍😍😍
Mia we love you❣️you just being you is paying us back xox
Mia is amazing. she's probably the only youtuber i've been coming back to for years. Her videos are so well done and fun to watch, and her 'energy' is so nice
The flies come up through the drains when they haven’t been used in a while I believe they’re even called drain flies. You can pour a mixture of salt vinegar and baking soda in the drains if you ever see them again 💕
Woah! Never knew that!
Yeah, i had issues with house flies in my basement last winter. They come into houses in the colder seasons so i had my AC at 18C for a few days and they started dropping dead.
Wow Mia! Y’all did an amazing job! I could never!
I love the reconfiguration of the kitchen and using the slanted ceiling as an opportunity bathroom storage. That's thinking outside the box. Great job Mia and family!
I actually really liked your staging more than the professionals! They did good obviously but yours just felt more warm and welcoming to me.
Turning that downstairs bathroom into a laundry room was brilliant!
I agree, her staging just felt more cozy and how you could actually use the space and ikr!
The “after” house looks amazing, the staged by you “after” i liked more. I think you didn’t make money cause the initial house was not a dump, it was already an ok house, it just lacked personality and finishing touches. As a fellow reno shows watcher I noticed they always start with a derelict/very dated house😁 The end result was amazing though, I’d 100% watch you flipping houses
You did an amazing job. It’s absolutely gorgeous. I love what you opted for in the bathroom with the slanted ceiling. The cabinetry was an excellent choice in there. You inspire me so much. I hope you had fun doing it as much as I did watching!
Just wow! Dream home you've made. Love love love! ♡
Why is Mia talking about repaying us when she makes our Fridays and Sundays so much better with her content? She treats her fans like her friends!! ❤❤❤
Now all the stuff she just had laying around her house like the tile closet in the bathroom makeover video and all the room flipping videos in general all year make sense
This is AMAZING🙌🏻 absolutely love, great job Mia!
Beautiful renovation Mia!👏👏👏🏆🎉Love it!
"it's not about always making money.." Mia is definitely my favourite UA-camr
I honestly was shook with the outcome! The house is so beautiful! I like the neutrals with some pop of colors, it makes it so charmingly colorful without being too much. I also like the placement of the furnitures and the paintings. I especially LOVE the kitchen, it is so up my alley. Everything is so well thought and just so nicely done! Great job Maples family you guys should feel very proud of your selves ♡
i am absolutely obsessed with the house. i love it so much
I’m OBSESSED with the outcome, gorgeous😍 you guys did an amazing job!
I'm still trying to get over the dead flies lol
OMG same!!! Amityville 😂
Yes we need an explanation on where they came from 😂😂
those flies tipically come from the dried out tubes of the toilet or tub, when they don't fill them up with water for a while, these harmless little creatures appear, they will disappear again after letting some water flow😄 I hope I was helpful
I’m obsessed with that cherry sweater 😩
Same! It’s so pricey though :(
@@caripao2001 can try DIY-ing one? Haha it might look wonky but every cherry is It’s own cherry. They will have character 😂
That’s actually an excellent idea! #cherrieswithcharacter 🍒
These Reno videos are my absolute favorite.
It's such an amazing transformation, I honestly am shocked at the before and after changes. I can definitely see this being a goner in no time. I love it!!! 😍😍
From DIY crafts to DIY house??? THE BAR IS GETTING HIGH. You should be the DIY queen now. 😂
UA-cam isn’t a sure career for the whole life, but I can clearly see Mia in some kind of a house business 😁😁
Beautiful reno - wow!!! Love watching these videos!!
The kitchen and stairs both came out so so good!!!
Mia: posts
Me:clicks faster than the speed of light.
Literally me
yup
Same
Me to
That cherry sweater is everything! ❤️✨
This house is absolutely stunning. I have cold shivers. Between the kitchens and the bathrooms to how you made the rooms flow!! Rooms were an awkward shape but you did amazing!!
I'm in love with the new look of the house 🥰
