I’m so glad y’all had fun on your vacation!❤ The southern heat in the summer is horrible and the humidity in Florida is stifling 🔥. We were in the beginning process of buying our first home and then 2020 happened. It’s very disheartening! We have been in what was supposed to be our temporary home for 9 years!
I feel ya! We moved across the country in 2019 in the hopes of finally buying a house. We were in a good market, with good rates & good schools. I was being picky since this was going to be a long-term or even forever home. Then 2020 hit & destroyed that dream. Prices went up on the size of homes we were looking at & interest rates skyrocketed. People were even offering 50-100k over asking, so even if I did put in an offer, I was outbid every time. I ended up buying a condo within the complex we were renting in just so I could be on the owning side of things. We are doing upgrades here & hoping to take our equity & buy an actual home in 2 years. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Yes! We’re having that issue even now. People offering 30-40k over asking for homes?! We can’t do that lol or want too! We’ve considered just maybe doing an addition to our current home. We got quoted last year and it would still be cheaper than a mortgage on a new home!
Thank you! We’ve done so much here too. We’ve talked about building an addition and got quoted in the fall of last year for one, and it was cheaper than a new mortgage on a new home. For now we’re where we’re meant to be 🥰
So cute how Maddie is there helping mama clean! That cricut my turned ha and she makes a lot of nest stuff with it. Great video as always, Whitney always watch to the end. Happy framers day to Tim! And yeah when I went to FL Bocca it wasn’t the best time we went the 2nd to the last day is when weather was nice. So I feel that lol. Hope you guys have a wonderful week! 😊💜
It is a pain in the butt to clean lol! I totally understand because I have tile in all 4 of our washrooms . Absolutely love your videos! Thank you for the motivation today! Can I ask you where you bought your long cardigan from? It's beautiful! Totally understand the housing market thing... it is crazy out there. This is why we've chosen to stay where we are and just slowly renovate things we want to upgrade. And we love it where we are tbh. Awesome video!❤❤❤
I would definitely wait on the housing market to get better! I know it’s hard to wait but it’ll be worth it in the end. We bought our forever home in 2021 for $300,000 and I can sell my home now easily for over $400,000. The interest rates are ridiculous also.
Yes the rates are what gets us!! We refinanced in 2021 and have a 2.9% lol these 7% rates are WILD! We have a good bit of equity in our home but we would like to save some of it instead of using it all for a down payment. So we will see what the next few years holds
Hey Friend, Happy Sunday. I enjoy all of your videos and seeing you tackle your home. Happy Father’s Day to your husband I hope he has a good one! 😊 I agree the house and car market is crazy right now. I want to get me a new car soon but I want the car market to go down before I get one. My current car is a 2015 so it should be good for another couple of years until that time comes. 😊 In the next couple of years I want to get me another house when the house market comes down as well. The house doesn’t have to be anything huge just enough room for me and my future family. You should take your time with your new house until the market comes down some. 😊😊🥰
I think that’s our plan as well! We’ve even just considered adding an addition to our home! It would still be cheaper than a mortgage on a new house. It’s just crazy these prices for things 😓
This year Father's day falls on our daughter's birthday and she isn't exactly happy about sharing. Lol, just kidding. My dad had also planned on coming down this weekend but sadly something came up.
@@whitneypea it is summers are so bad now, not the rest of the year just summers. im gonna get a summer home in Georgia or tennessee this is so much :(
❤❤❤ my dad passed away 16yers ago. 😢 ,we having the best contact but he was my dad. I frome to Poland but I live in North Ireland (UK) the weather here is so bad, raining every day
I had that same type of shower in my apartment and it got absolutely disgusting and I had soap products on the floor also because of the tiny little space built in for them and it was tough to clean We just built our house a year or so ago and have a massive tile shower and tub built in and it is a lot easier to clean. I have one of those long scrubbing wands from Amazon and I can knock it out quickly. I clean my shower about once every two to four months (oops lol) and it always looks nice and have no issues with grout
@@whitneypea I’m not sure but we picked a light color which is great because if anything needs attention it’s obvious (I’m not someone who wants colors to hide grime I like to know so I can clean it lol) and unless you’re really neglecting shower maintenance it’s not all going to pop up pink and gross at once. The only way I could see tile being a horrible pain is if you had lots of small tile (we chose large tile) and if it was flooring in a kitchen or other large space.

Thanks for the motivation Whitney great video 💕
Thank you so much!
Maddie helping you dust was the cutest. 😊 I don't want a huge house either. I prefer smaller homes, but we definitely could use one more bedroom.
Yes we really just need one more bedroom and it would be fine! But our home is perfect for now 🥰
Love your daughter helping you clean
She’s the best 🖤

@@whitneypea sounds like that's the way to go for now.
Glad you had a great trip! Yes the week you were in Florida we had really hot temps. We finally got rain and it’s cooled down to 87-90 degrees!
Of course! As soon as we leave lol!
You did great, Whitney. I love it. Have a great weekend.❤
Thank you! You too!🖤
@@whitneypea ❤️
I understand wanting to move. But your home is absolutely beautiful and if you love the school, that’s hard to beat! Deff a tough situation!
Thank you! We’ve done so much here too. We’ve talked about building an addition and got quoted in the fall of last year for one, and it was cheaper than a new mortgage on a new home. For now we’re where we’re meant to be 🥰
You are so motivating.!

It was definitely brutal! I couldn’t live there lol 😂
@@whitneypea it is summers are so bad now, not the rest of the year just summers. im gonna get a summer home in Georgia or tennessee this is so much :(

That’s good to know!! Is your grout sealed? I feel like that’s the way to do it. And plus tile looks soo pretty 🥹
@@whitneypea I’m not sure but we picked a light color which is great because if anything needs attention it’s obvious (I’m not someone who wants colors to hide grime I like to know so I can clean it lol) and unless you’re really neglecting shower maintenance it’s not all going to pop up pink and gross at once.

Which size rug is that at your front door?
It’s a 3’6” by 5’6” so similar to a 4x6!! I love the size!
When you are dusting and vacuuming everything does that not make you 🤧 like crazy? Girl my allergies can't handle it anymore. Lol
Nope! I’m very fortunate to not have allergies although the rest of my family definitely suffers! So I have to be careful doing that around them lol
I hate cleaning the bathroom and shower!
The worst!!
Is this a home reset or a freaking commercial?
Looks like a home reset to me.. Great video as always Whitney! ❤️
