Thanks! I truly appreciate that!

I'd add "new builds." The quality of new builds in many places these days is abysmal at best. Poor craftmanship, (if you want to call it that), along with home builders that are not quick to honor any warranty is enough for me to stay away

Definitely! Of course there are some great builders out there, but most are in the business of getting homes built quickly. I see more problems on inspections of homes less than 5 years old, than I do on most others.

I'd add to this, houses in a flood zone.

Really nice video, especially considering your subscriber count and total channel view count. Honestly it was great. If i can give one piece of unsolicited advise, the constant cuts are really distracting and jarring to the eyes. It might take more time to do the script a couple times and not need those jumps, but really makes viewing much more enjoyable. Anyway, this is the first video of yours I watched and it earned a subscribe. I will look through your older videos as well. Keep up the good work!

My #1 deal killer: H(orrific) O(ffensive) A(uthority) on the deed. If I could get it for free with the catch that I had to live with an HOA for a decade, I would pass.

Old house? Total gut rehab…and I mean TOTAL! No BS.

Yeah, with many of these 100+ year houses, you need to go down to the studs to ensure you are doing it right!

@@georgemyrealtor unless the homeowner actually took care of it? My house is 65 years old. I have lived here 24 years. I budgeted a minimum of 10k per year in repair/remodels.

@@e-spymine was built in 1911! We adore it and it's been a ton of work, but we knew that going in. I think the average homebuyer is usually unprepared for the maintenance and upkeep needed.

@@georgemyrealtor ain't that the truth! But there is nothing like knowing you are giving your kids a home they can count on. Expensive as it is, that is what I am happiest about. They knew where home was, they knew they were safe here.

@e-spy my house is 45 years old, we have spent $10k/ year the past 13 years and we have about $50k to go. Oh well
