No Kevin, you DON’T paint brick. Unless you want brick that won’t dry after it rains, which eventually turns your bricks and mortar to mush and you get to replace the entire mess. Bricks need air contact to dry and breathe. Former home inspector here.

@GJ_DM4 жыл бұрын
On top of these very utilitarian reasons, painting brick is just an architectural crime. You want materials to speak for themselves and not pretend to be something they're not, and painting brick is doing just the opposite. Brick is brick. It's not green or black or any paint color, it's the color of the clay that it's sourced from.
@Meyer_Nick4 жыл бұрын
does that really make a difference if you only paint the inside of the house side of the brick?
@GJ_DM4 жыл бұрын
@@Meyer_Nick Probably not, the reason he is citing not to paint has to do with the fact that brick in modern brick veneer construction acts as a somewhat porous, moisture-wicking hard barrier that protects the wall assembly from sun and flying debris, it's main job isn't keeping water out of the building, there's a moisture barrier and an air gap behind the wythe of brick that does that job. I can see painting the exterior getting in the way of moisture evaporating out of the air gap behind the brick, but if you're painting the inside of a brick fire place for instance, it wouldn't have any negative effects. It might in fact be helpful in the same manner that people seal the inside of their basement walls with a liquid applied vapor barrier.

I've been using that flooring for a while. It has a paper fiber core, which means that it can swell with moisture. That problem is all but eliminated by giving it a couple of layers of Mop & Glo or something similar right after being laid down. The wax soaks into the ends and seals them, so even if tenants don't keep up the wax the floor is still significantly moisture resistant. It really stands the test of time and looks great.

The water got between the wall & the paint, so mold. As soon as I closed on the house, I used a box cutter to cut 60 years worth of paint away so I could see the damage and keep it aired out so it doesn't get worse. The top of the mold wall may have damage to the top sill. I knew this ahead of time as it had been leaking for quite a while, no one has been able to locate the actual source of the leak. The house was built in 1959 and will be awesome when I finish it. If I could only get started... And yes, I got a smoking deal on it. Replace the roof while you can.

Don't buy a huge bucket! Get a small quart container. You can buy them on Amazon for cheap. You could also paint on top of it with something else to blend in certain colors to give it Taps and then seal it with a sealer

Seems like most of your properties have neighbors with campers. Do neighborhoods with campers relate to places you want to buy in? Or does everyone like to camp in their driveways in SoCal?

The reason the roof felt like a spring board is because you were standing in the valley where there is metal... shimmying like that around 15:00 is a great way to create leaks fyi

The beige tile is beautiful. But also subway tile wasn’t popularized until like 2014 and it will go out of stile within 10 years aswell. You should Always design for the current year not the unpredictable future

Carpet in a rental property, no good. Tenants let their dogs pee on the carpet, they spill red wine on the carpet, etc. Waterproof flooring is what I am looking for in my new rental properties.

In Ventura, your not required to have some kind of cooling system? I believe in Orange County you are require to have both heating and cooling, but the cooling can be in the form of ceiling fans. I could be wrong, but I believe that's the case here.

The large tub tile would look less dated if you had gone a step above and had a decorative 'inset' separating the top from the bottom. My biggest peeve with the subway tile look is that much more grout and that grout becomes a harbinger for mold to grow. With that said, I doubt a tenant would even notice it. Unless of course there was *mold* growing in the grout that is.
