I lived in a house that was built in the 40s and two of the three bedrooms had external doors with small, private porches. I was told that this would allow a woman whose husband was away at war to earn an income by renting out one or both of those rooms, while still maintaining her home and caring for her children.

Managed to pay off my debt by 2019 and currently have a house and 250k total in investments (combo of profit share, 401k and a brokerage account). I'm not very knowledgeable in investing, so I just have my investing currently in index funds mainly voo, but have been putting a lot into schd the past few months. I dunno if that's the optimal strategy, but psychologically it is very set it and forget it, and prevents me from obsessing over individual stock performance.

I noticed the video was posted in 2020 and I am very certain material prices are way much higher in 2022 which should offer more motivation to renovate older homes because by doing so you save bundles of money on the materials already in place such as the skeleton (frame) of the house. So long as the frame is not rotted or deteriorated by termites. Fantastic job guys.

Not only does the light blue on the porch ceiling help keep bugs away, the practice actually originates from Gullah folklore from the Lowcountry sea islands of South Carolina. The Gullah/Geechee people believe that painting the ceiling of your porch blue will help keep the Haints (evil spirits) from entering your home. The haints supposedly cannot cross over water and are fooled by the blue ceiling. This color blue is commonly referred to as “Haint Blue”, especially here in South Carolina and Georgia!

One thing I want to say about renting a house; if you take the depreciation you must depreciated it for 27 1/2 years to full depreciation of asset. If you sell before that period, there is a depreciation recapture that reduces the cost basis of the house and that is usually taxed at 25%. So, investors need to be aware of this before deciding to take the depreciation expense.

In spite of how everyone is frightened and calling the crash, there is already an excessive amount of demand waiting to absorb it, which is another reason it's less likely to happen that way. This forecast was not made in 2008, at least not by the general public, as I will explain below. The ownership rate peaked in 2004, according to the other statement. We reached a peak in the second quarter of 2020 and are currently at the median level. From 2008 to 2012, it fell by 3%, and in the second quarter of 2020, it dropped from 68 to 65.

For all the geniuses yapping about the foundation here's a primer for you. In Texas we get droughts regularly, 3 months of no rain at my house this summer is not even considered a drought...just normal. We have limestone and clay soil. When you have a concrete slab foundation and there's a drought guess what happens? The ground splits. You either spend a great deal of time and money (not to mention harming the environment) leaving a water hose running around the perimeter of your slab or in a few years you have a cracked, busted, heaving slab. I have seen beautiful, newer homes demolished because the slab was beyond repair. So the very intelligent builders a couple hundred years ago started using pier and beam which allows for shifting with no damage to the home. Those multiple stacks of "small tiles" are where a "foundation" leveler has gone in and jacked up the house incrementally. Those tiles are very easy to pull a few out or stick several in raising or lowering as needed. My current home is 98 years old and will need leveled within the next couple years, but it will cost me less than $1,000 and hasn't been done in almost 30 years. Just because you're not familiar with it doesn't make it wrong.

@kunya16 3 жыл бұрын

I live in Washington. My house is 100 years old with the same foundation. Most of the houses in my town are. We just had to level an addition. It's a totally valid foundation option. Some banks don't like it around here, but done right it's fine.

Cutaways and cat pictures aside, this video is the perfect house flipper story. There is no shortage of stories of off grid or fringe properties being constructed or renovated, but what I personally find more alluring are stories of unloved, lowly valued properties that exist within city or suburban limits, receive an overhaul and return to the world of homeowners and renters. Not only did Austin Flipsters take a neglected property within the limits of society and make it livable again, but they also described the process in such as a way that I felt emotionally invested. I wanted the house to be loved again. Even the expense report and the potential cash flow analysis add character to the property. Thankfully, the video does not end with a cliffhanger. Rather, the house will operate as a rental property for the foreseeable future. Either way, I hope there are more videos of neglected urban and suburban homes reborn.

Nice Job! Good luck with the flooring, I put the exact same stuff in my entire house and it didn’t even last a year. I purchased it because it was highly pushed as “life proof” and 100% guaranteed. When the edges started peeling and lifting I filed a claim with them but they denied it stating the warranty was null and void because in one area of my house there was a 1/4 inch grade variation over a six foot span. Buyer beware and don’t be fooled! Read the fine print and you will see that they have written it so they will never have to honor the warranty.

Yes, the color is called "haint blue" in Louisiana and some of the Gulf states. According to studies, gnats and mosquitos are less active and do not swarm when surrounded by haint blue. It actually does keep the bugs away at dusk, when they are typically most active. Doesn't do much the rest of the time and certainly nothing at night. It is only a gentle hint, however. I still recommend planting the porch with a shoo-fly plant and burning citronella candles.

Hey guys I love the house. You kept it simple yet classy.. I just bought a 2300 soft Church in Virginia on 1/4 acre for $60,000. I plan to make a house out of it. The Church is in excellent condition and hardwood floors are simply beautiful. And it has a kitchen with two bathrooms next to each other so not sure what to do.. move one bathroom to be between the two offices which could already be two bedrooms. I bought it because of how well maintained this old church has been through the years by the church members.. so would not be as much work as if a total renovation. Just needs a few walls added. The heating and cooling looks brand new and I can hardly wait to ring the steeple bell. I love to watch what you do to these flips, thank you.

Yeah and people should stop being so negative about them in the comments, it's their decision how they fix the house, and they are the ones actually doing the work so people should just let them make their own decisions without hating on them

Nice flip, only issue I can see is that a metal roof can interfere with cell or internet service. I do appreciate that you show that it doesn't have to be custom cabinets to be very nice.

a lot of modern houses have metal roofs, my house has a metal roof and i get full cellular signal and have wifi everywhere on my property.

You could totally fit a little cafe table with barstools in that kitchen. I think sometimes they're referred to as Dinettes. It might not be a grand dining room table, but it'd probably fit nice and look sensible.

That apple green in the kitchen was very popular in the 70's. I used it, lol. It was considered then "Bohemian." It was seen a lot of places. I cringe when people make fun of old houses.....lives were lived there. It mattered to someone. You did a fabulous job "rehabilitating" this house. More happy memories can be made there.....

That same color was in my older house when we moved in. I feel like “modern” white is going to eventually be made fun of like the green color is now lol

Bad taste is bad taste and painting you house blue, green, yellow or red on the inside or out, is really bad taste.

Ya'll that foundation is a no go. Very bad. Also, why so much expense on the windows? Leaving a door in a bedroom? Nah I will pass on this.

I think that door in the bedroom now leads to a tiny closet, when you look at the new mudroom you can see the back wall right in front of the door.

@@jonathangatto Good sir a foundation for a house is defined in a conventional sense as a steel reinforced concrete slab (for a ranch home) or a steel reinforced cinder-block basement wall sitting on top of the aforementioned reinforced concrete slab. That what you call a foundation for this house would not even be permitted to hold up a shed in New Jersey let alone any kind of livable space.
