    I am SO STOKED to finally be a homeowner and and I cannot WAIT to get started on making this house our HOME. Thank you all so much for supporting what I do and helping me follow my dreams every single day. This could not have been possible without YOU. 💕
    What project are you most excited to see come to life!? Let me know!

    Sam, I remember our first house. Oh it was an adventure. A few days into it, the line from the old oil tank for the furnace burst and flooded our unfinished basement. This was country living and the volunteer fire department suggested a tent to sleep in since furnace oil - STINKS. Fortunately the oil company came in and pumped out the basement. Sigh. However, it was still amazing to have your own home.
    On another note, can you cover how to spot a load bearing wall. That came up since you are tearing down a wall.
    Again, congrats. What a terrific thing it is to have a home. Now you can increase your Vans collection :)

    I really enjoy watching people work on their own spaces. The creativity is so different when it’s for ourselves. Also I really like the jumping off points. I’m excited to learn basic wood jointery and noodle through my next project.
    Thanks to all the creators out there who diy in a 20-30 minute video. I like watching these as I sand for the 14th time or whatever I eventually weeks later finish.

  • @averagejoesworkshop
    @averagejoesworkshop 3 роки тому +10

    I’m looking forward to following the renovation journey! For the shop walls, think osb or plywood for the second layer. It allows you to hang things wherever rather than being limited to stud locations.

    • @diyhuntress
      @diyhuntress  3 роки тому

    • @mrmyblessednest1722

  • @jerritanner275
    @jerritanner275 3 роки тому +4

    Congratulations!!! It’s an adorable house with so much potential. Your fist home is very special. You’ll be doing something very mundane, like loading the dishwasher, then realize it’s yours & your heart will swell with pride. 💖 25+ years & 4 larger, more expensive houses later & I’m still in love with my first home. 💖

    • @diyhuntress
      @diyhuntress  3 роки тому +1

      Thank you so much! I am so, so excited. Had that moment in there with my dad a few days ago when my brother called and he said, “I’m at Sam’s house”’ on the phone. It feels surreal. 😭

  • @stefanocalio9
    @stefanocalio9 3 роки тому +2

    Congratulations Sam! My girlfriend and I also bought out first house a few months ago and your videos have inspired me to take over one of the backyard sheds and make it a small woodworking shop. Can definitely confirm that it's the best of feelings, finally having your place and make it yours with things you build yourself 🙂
    Can't wait for new videos and new ideas from the new house!

  • @robw5088
    @robw5088 3 роки тому +2

    Congrats Sam!! I remember 4 years ago the struggle I went through trying to buy a home, lots of tears. Once I did there was so much work involved to take a 75 year old home and bring it in to the 2020's. Every moment was worth it! Cant wait to see all the videos you will put out over the next few years as you guys grow in your new place.

    Congratulations on the house. Even though the first house fell through, this house was meant to be yours and everything happens for a reason in life. The beauty of cape houses is that there’s so much you can do to them. Many of the homes on LI have been converted. The garage shop is awesome. Looking forward to the projects you have planned for the house and shop.

    Congrats guys! Great news! I see a Mr. Cool sponsorship in your future. Our house is from the same era and we wound up replacing all of the wiring due to aluminum wiring we didn’t like. With one floor and an unfinished basement it’s not too bad if you have to do it.

    • @diyhuntress

    My husband and got our commitment today, we would be excited but this is the third house that we’ve gone through this process with! We are also in Long Island. It’s been one hell of journey but both homes we’ve been in contract with could not get their tenants out and we had to pull out. This time around we got approved for a grant which has been a whole other difficult process. Praying it all works out and we will be in our home soon.

    My first reaction came after 2 minutes watching your video on my smartphone. I just "had to" to congratulate you very shortly that very moment, because typing something on a smartphone is for me typing three characters and making four mistakes in.it. But watching videos on it is OK. So after watching the video straight after my comment (and watching the video now partly again) i finally can write a "real" comment.
    I'm so happy for you both. You are busy with so many things at the moment. It's unbelievable. I'm looking forward to seeing all your home improvement projects.

    (Also look into canless led ceiling lights for your dark hallway without lights. We just put a couple in our low hallway ceilings that also didn’t have ceiling lights and they’re wonderful, and don’t need a ton of space either)
