Short filmTranscript
00:01I think it's one of the worst houses we'll probably ever encounter in our
00:05entire career. This house excites the crap out of me. I'm Kamalai Kalama, right?
00:11Yeah! And I'm Tristan Kalama. I put on extra deodorant for this.
00:17Oh my god. We buy and renovate homes in the most challenging place in the country,
00:23Hawaii. The shipping is more than the actual material cost. Wow. We want to
00:28restore homes for our local families. The real estate here is crazy expensive.
00:35So to make this work, we have to take on some of the most rundown homes on the
00:38island. Can you hear us? No! Disgusting. How do we do it? Our giant family. I have 87
00:47first cousins. Yo, what's up cuz? More than anything, we want our children to be good
00:53human beings. Exactly. Can't have little ass walking around. Little ass walking around.
01:10I'm calling it now. Biggie's going in. I was just gonna say the same thing. I can just see it
01:15happening.
01:15Yeah. I'm gonna. Oh. Hello? Hey, man. How's it going? Good. How are you? I'm good, bro. I'll probably have
01:27a property right up your alley.
01:28You're telling me you got a lead for me. Yeah, man. So, Matt owns a local junk removal
01:34company here on Oahu, and not only do we use him for our junk removal, but he's also a good
01:41source for leads.
01:42Dude, check out these photos. It's on a huge lot in Aiea. Oh my gosh. This is definitely a house
01:50we would buy.
01:51Bro, you gotta get over here ASAP. They're about to list the property and we're almost done. That was junk,
01:58man. They just did a clean out of a house.
02:00Oh my gosh. I was like, um, this is a house that we would buy. That we would buy. Yeah.
02:06He says they're about to list.
02:08So we have to check it out first thing tomorrow. Okay. Yep. I love referrals from Jung Fan. I know.
02:14I would like to see you do one of these kicks from your son. Me? Oh my gosh, no. Look
02:19at your mother-in-law.
02:21He's teaching you the wrong. Mom, you're gonna tear something.
02:32Today, we're on our way to check out a tip about a house on the west side of Aiea,
02:37which is a diverse suburban neighborhood on Oahu. This area has everything from beautiful hiking trails
02:44to the Pearl Ridge Shopping Center, which is the largest indoor mall in Hawaii. Because of all it has
02:51to offer, the average home goes for right around a million dollars.
02:56Yo. What's up, guys? What's up, my man?
02:58Hey, man. I'm getting out of here. We just finished the last couple loads.
03:02Um, but you're gonna need these. Oh my gosh.
03:05It's one of the worst places I've ever seen. No way.
03:08Are you serious? Thank you for the lead, though. I'm scared.
03:10I appreciate it. No problem. See you guys. Bye.
03:14This is not good. If Matt has this mask, what does that mean? Where are you taking me?
03:20Bro. Look at that beauty. Oh my crap.
03:27Makes sense why Matt called us. At least it has a huge carport.
03:32Yes, it's a very big carport. Look at where we are. We're at the end of a cul-de-sac.
03:37I agree. I agree. So I looked it up. It's like 2,200 square feet. Two levels.
03:44This looks like a house we would buy. Right off the bat. Ferns growing out of the gutters.
03:49The roof hasn't been changed in 30 years. Ever. Just ever.
03:54This property ends on that back wall. We could do something super cool with this huge backyard.
04:01Is that a chicken coop? That is a chicken coop. I mean, this one is definitely bad.
04:06Do you smell that? It smells like money. It smells like cat .
04:13And we're kind of in a busy area. Like, we're tucked back here, but I can hear the cars.
04:18I'm terrified. Okay. I'm excited. Let's go look at it.
04:23After you. Well, what is this little space here?
04:28I mean, this is weird. It's super low. I can like barely fit, but we have a toilet. Next to
04:37a fridge.
04:39Okay. And then I'm walking into. Okay. So it gets taller in here. This is good. I think that this
04:46was some kind of a open patio. Is this on tax records? This is on tax records.
04:51Now that toilet over there, I don't know. I'm grabbing my mask. Another entrance on the ground
04:59floor. You're not going to like the smell in here. That's what I'm smelling already.
05:05Okay. There's three bedrooms and a bath down here.
05:10How are you not wearing a mask right now? This is the grossest smelling house I've ever been in.
05:16Oh my gosh, babe. There's water damage here. Look at the duct tape on the ceiling.
05:21There is duct tape on the ceiling everywhere. I'm so worried on what this is concealing.
05:28What is on this light bulb? Dead termites. These are all termites. Is it a spider web that caught all
05:34these? Babe. Let's move on. So you have a good sized room right here.
05:40This room is giving me dungeon vibes. It's just so dirty. Okay. This one's bigger.
05:48More duct tape on the ceiling. But look at just the dirt. Is this termite dropping? And it just keeps
05:55getting grosser. There's four windows in this room as well. I feel like it's the same size as the other
06:01one. We have a lot of the same, which is duct tape, disgustingness. Spider webs.
06:10Let's move on. I've never seen anything like that. Okay. Here's their one and only
06:14dungeon bathroom. It's because of all the brick. This is a good enough room where you could rework it
06:20and actually have... I don't want to stay in there. A couple. There's good space in there. Okay.
06:26Moving on. Now we get to see the upstairs. After you? No. After you.
06:33Up here, there's supposed to be three bedrooms and one bathroom. Ta-da. Ta-da.
06:41Okay. We have some natural light. A little less dungeon-y. Yeah. It looks like the ceilings feel a
06:46little taller in here. Okay. On tax records, this upstairs area is smaller. This is about 950 square feet up
06:55here.
06:56Oh my gosh. Holy crap. Okay. This is the grossest kitchen I've ever seen.
07:03This kitchen has not been used. Like, there's no freaking way. Let's move on. Um, okay. It's like,
07:11such a small... This is the bathroom. This is the one bathroom up here.
07:15Oh! Scrape you out of here. There's a live spider in the corner. Okay. Into the other less disgusting room.
07:23Look at the carpet, babe. This was the walking path, obviously. That's so crazy. I know.
07:31This is a issue. Major water damage right there, for sure. Like, this has been leaking for a long time.
07:38So then it looks like there's two more bedrooms over here. This is the cleanest room we've been in.
07:44It's also the darkest room. Okay. Last bedroom. Oh, I mean, this one's good size.
07:51Oh, it's the biggest. Sure. The biggest one so far.
07:55The chickens, man. It's also pitch black in here. These trees are just blocking out
08:00any kind of natural light. It's because of the trees and the massive amounts of dust.
08:07I need to go back outside. Let's go. Okay. I need some fresh air.
08:15You're all right? I'm like dizzy.
08:18It is very bad. But if you put that aside... I'm trying.
08:22The location is excellent on a super large lot. Right.
08:27And you have... It has technically two...
08:31Multi-generational living. This area is really known for that as well.
08:35A buyer could have a full house, basically, upstairs and also downstairs.
08:41Totally separate entrance. There's even an opportunity to turn into three units.
08:46It can be a multi-gen buyer. So somebody with a very large family and they all need to live
08:51in one
08:52location. It could be a first-time home buyer that's going to live in one portion, rent out the others,
09:00to offset the mortgage. We would have to buy it for right around $800. So $100,000 less than it's
09:07listed.
09:07And based on recent comps in the area, we sell this thing. We can sell it for $1.45.
09:15Chicken. Holding, selling, money costs are going to be about $200,000.
09:20Rentals like $275,000. That leaves us $175,000 in profit.
09:27That's good because I just feel like we're going to need all the contingency, margin, and assurance
09:33that we can on this property because this market sucks. This is a huge job. It smells like they let
09:40every cat in the neighborhood pee right here as their litter box and lacking creativity at the moment.
09:47Well, luckily, that's not my job. Oh, great. So you can go and figure that out. Put your offering.
09:54I am just buying good freaking deals. Well, we'll see. See what they say. And call Matt and tell him
10:00thank you. Definitely calling Matt. Thank you for sending me the ugliest house. I'm going to tell Matt
10:16you're at $800,000. But the seller came back with $850,000. After some back and forth,
10:22we settled on $825,000. The renovation should take right around 16 weeks. So we'll need to have
10:30the crew ready to go. So once we get this house, we can start.
10:38All right. So this one that I'm signing now is closing on Tuesday. Yeah, that one is already
10:44at the paperwork. Everything's good. So I'm going to go drop that off to escrow. Okay. Hold on,
10:50babe. I'm getting a call from the IEA house agent. Hello? Hi, Kamal. Hi. Honestly, this has never
10:58happened in my career. And I can't, um, I can't apologize enough, but we had two offers on the
11:06property, yours and another one that was almost identical. Same price, but just had inspection
11:11contingencies. But I submitted the wrong offer to escrow. Um, and unfortunately it, they have
11:20actually opened escrow. Wait, so you, so we're, we don't have an exception. You had two offers that
11:27were similar and you thought you sent ours, but you sent someone else's. They've paid their EMDs. So
11:35they're legally in escrow. That's so crazy. How does that happen? We already had lined up all of our,
11:43our resources, our finances, crews scheduled to go out there to inspect the property. And you're telling
11:51me we don't have this house. What? This is insane. What's the recourse on this? This is a big deal.
12:02If anything happens with this deal and they don't make it through escrow, of course,
12:08I would come back to you before anything else. Um, well, okay, keep me posted. Bye.
12:17How does that even happen? I can tell from what she's telling me that no matter what,
12:25they're going to come back to us. If something happens, I'm going to try and negotiate the out of
12:29that price. I mean, an inspection on a house like that is going to have so many issues. The roof
12:36has
12:36to be replaced all of the plumbing, not to mention all the electrical systems. They're definitely falling
12:44out of escrow. That's an understatement.
12:54As it turns out, the buyers during their inspection found all kinds of issues and they backed out of the
13:01deal
13:01and fell out of escrow. And we were able to renegotiate for $25,000 less, which ups our potential
13:09profit to $175,000. This is by far the grossest disgusting house I think we've ever done.
13:18And we literally have 16 weeks to make it look nice. I love it.
13:24Well, make it livable. It's not livable. All right. Today's more of just exploratory demo.
13:31You guys go upstairs, demo the kitchen, and then we'll hang back downstairs and try and open up the
13:37ceiling and see what is going on. Okay.
13:49It just really stinks in here like this. Yeah. Why is there so much dirt in here?
13:55This hole, the kitchen is right here. Yeah.
14:00What the heck was that? That is so wild.
14:04What is that hole? Because this is not normal termite damage.
14:09Well, it's normally square. You guys see this too, right? That's from a rat.
14:14Oh, my God. Are you telling me there's rats in the ceiling?
14:19A rat's neck. Oh.
14:20Oh, my God. I don't know. There's evidence of your rat.
14:24Yeah. You can see all those teeth weren't.
14:26That's disgusting. If a rat falls out of the ceiling, you guys...
14:30I'm waiting for a rat. Oh, my God.
14:33This is officially the worst house we have ever bought. Like, it doesn't just stink. It's like,
14:39gross rat stink. Okay. On to the next.
14:51Termites. Oh, my God.
14:58Holy crap.
15:00You're literally covered in rat, both of you in rat and piss.
15:05Give her a hug. I know.
15:06You better not. I swear.
15:08Do Bubba's roundhouse kick.
15:11You guys drug me here. I don't feel good. Okay. So, what are the next steps?
15:15The next steps are taking a shower.
15:18I agree with that.
15:19The thing is, is like, you have to take off all your clothes to drive home.
15:23Because, like, and just throw them in the back of the truck.
15:26Yeah. You know you said that, like, four times.
15:28I'm just reiterating.
15:29You really want me to get naked on the drive home.
15:32Always.
15:35All right.
15:36Ah, geez.
15:37Are you really running away?
15:39Yeah.
15:40Love you.
15:51Now that the permits are approved for two weeks into our 16-week schedule,
15:55and already have the upstairs framed out,
15:57they're cutting openings for the new windows and doors.
16:00And downstairs, they're running electrical through the large living space.
16:04What's up, buddy?
16:05What's up, buddy?
16:06Is framing all done up here?
16:07Yeah, framing is 99%.
16:10Okay.
16:11Yeah.
16:11Nice.
16:12As far as the layouts, uh, it's...
16:14It feels good in here.
16:14Yeah.
16:15This is such a better layout.
16:17We've decided to make this property into three living spaces with a shared laundry room.
16:22On the top level, we're scraping the existing floor plan.
16:25So now you'll enter through a foyer.
16:27The right will be the bedroom and a shared bath.
16:30Then what used to be that gross galley kitchen on the left will be the second bedroom.
16:34You'll now have an open and airy kitchen and a large glass door that will have access to a
16:39staircase leading to the backyard.
16:40And the primary suite will be on the back right.
16:43Downstairs, we'll keep the same layout in our three bedroom one bath unit while adding some
16:48much needed storage.
16:49Finally, we'll separate that third unit with the weird exposed toilet into a proper laundry space and
16:55a rec room.
16:57Having a multi-gen space is going to add more value to it.
17:00It's going to attract way more buyers if we have the opportunity to have multiple family members
17:06pitch in to buy the house.
17:08So I would say 90% of the neighborhoods in Oahu, we go for multi-gen.
17:13This is the biggest change right here.
17:15Right.
17:16Is there was no access from upstairs, which is where people actually spend their time,
17:22to the backyard.
17:23Yeah.
17:23I mean, it's huge.
17:24Plus, this slider is going to let in a ton of natural light.
17:26Now you walk in and you actually get to enjoy what you have.
17:34We're four weeks into our 16-week schedule and upstairs, new windows are in, drywall is up,
17:40crew's working on the new roof, and our new exterior siding is getting painted.
17:44So while the crew works on the outside, Kabel Hai and I are going to talk through design.
17:48Do you smell that?
17:50It smells like cat .
17:53There's a lot of pieces to this house.
17:56And smells.
17:57So the design is sophisticated jungle book.
18:00Yeah.
18:00That's what I'm coining.
18:02I love it.
18:02We're in like a metro, like a bustling city.
18:06So like, it's unexpected to have that amount of jungle, like right by your house.
18:12So obviously green and bold color, like blues and coral.
18:17Bring that all together and make it still feel unique and elevated and I guess jungle.
18:23I'm just going to start right with the foyer when you walk in.
18:27When we bought the house, there was a checkered floor.
18:29I want to bring it back.
18:30Bring it back checkered.
18:32But like in a cool way, not in a very dated yellow way.
18:37So I wanted to do it in this and this, making the checker pattern light and dark.
18:42And it'll go from the front door till right here.
18:45That's awesome.
18:46So then starting in the bedrooms and running throughout is our Marcus Mackay poly notch cola.
18:55Sick.
18:56Now kitchen cabinets, we go bold with a black shaker, the two-tone where we do the taupe,
19:04the aroma clay with the black.
19:06Back.
19:07Moving on to the primary, we do the four by four green in all shower walls.
19:15And then do this brick four by four behind the vanity and the toilet wall.
19:22Love it.
19:23So now downstairs.
19:24Downstairs.
19:25There's the wet bar.
19:26So we literally mimic whatever we do up here, which is black shaker below.
19:31This aroma clay on the top, that's the same thing.
19:34Okay, next.
19:35So the rec room, we're just going to have a dry bar.
19:38Right.
19:39And it'll be this cabinet again, this black shaker with the same type of floating shelves.
19:45And then this is basically your backsplash is the wallpaper.
19:49That is cool.
19:49And it's a dry bar.
19:50So it's not like this is going to get wet or damaged.
19:53Right.
19:54I just love the design.
19:55Yeah.
19:56I think that's the point.
19:57We have a pillow like that at our house.
19:58I really, really like this.
20:00Let's get it ordered.
20:06While things are progressing on the inside of the house, we still haven't figured out what
20:10we're going to do with that huge backyard.
20:16Oh, that smell is giving litter box.
20:20This is actually a really big yard.
20:22Where'd that ladder come from?
20:24Somebody was picking coconuts.
20:26Oh, I think that's the neighbors.
20:27I guess it's everybody's or it's not ours.
20:30Oh my gosh.
20:31She's like picking coconuts.
20:33Unless there's something else up there.
20:35No, don't climb the bed.
20:37What are you doing?
20:41It's a tsunami warning.
20:44Didn't we just get one of these last week?
20:47Was there an earthquake somewhere?
20:50It says it was off of the coast of Russia.
20:52How big was it?
20:53It says it's an 8.8.
20:55That's huge.
20:56Are you sure, Josh?
20:58Not warning.
20:58Oh my God, my mom's calling.
21:00Hi.
21:01Did you get that?
21:03Are you hearing about the tsunami warning?
21:06Yeah.
21:07You think it's serious or what?
21:10We just had police come down the street telling everybody to keep the evacuation warning.
21:16That's not normal.
21:17I mean, that's never happened before.
21:19They've never come down your road and told people to leave.
21:24Dude, my parents are texting me.
21:26They're telling us like, oh wow.
21:27That's a first.
21:28We need to get the kids right now.
21:30I just want to...
21:30We'll call you back.
21:32Bye.
21:33Yeah.
21:34This is not normal.
21:35I've never in my 30 plus years of life had cops come down my parents' road telling those houses
21:45to evacuate.
21:46Never.
21:46And we have multiple tsunami warnings every year.
21:49We should literally go home, get the kids.
21:54Let's wrap.
21:56All right, guys, let's cut camera and pack up and go.
21:59Okay.
22:05We want to give you breaking news because Hawaii is under a tsunami warning.
22:11Get away from the beaches, get inland, and get upward.
22:14It is not a regular wave.
22:15It will actually kill you.
22:17We expect significant damage along the coastlines.
22:20We pray that we won't lose any of our loved ones.
22:22That's why we have to be very safe.
22:29We got really lucky with only a few smaller surges of water.
22:33And after a few hours, the warning was lifted and everyone is safe.
22:37I can remember one time, I think I was like six years old, there was a tsunami.
22:43We had to evacuate and we drove up to...
22:47Up there.
22:48Yup.
22:49That road right up there.
22:49Right up on that road and I actually thought it was a fun
22:53extortion because we were like packing everything up and driving up there.
22:57But we sat up there and we looked out at the ocean and nothing happened.
23:03The last big tsunami was back in 1960.
23:08There was massive devastation.
23:11If you look at the island chain, the big island is the first island and it's the biggest.
23:16So when the tsunami is coming in, it's normally hitting the Hilo side of the big island.
23:22And the wave was like 35 feet.
23:25It was a scary tsunami.
23:27And like, it's better to take it seriously, right?
23:31And treat it with a level of severity because it's better to be safe than sorry.
23:36But the thing is where we live in Kailua, like basically the whole city is an evacuation zone.
23:42So like, Kailua itself got really hectic.
23:45But us, we just packed our stuff up and waited because we could just drive up the hill if we
23:50needed to.
23:58You're on us chickens, mom.
23:59We've had a ton of time to think about this landscaping plan.
24:04So today, I'm meeting with our landscaper, Reagan, to figure out what we're going to do.
24:10Okay, do you smell that?
24:12Yeah, I smell the cats you're talking about, right?
24:14Yeah.
24:15Just off the top of your head, is there anything we could do to try and help with that smell?
24:20Normally, what I do when it's cats is, first of all, we spray it, chop it down, and then we
24:25till it.
24:26And by turning the soil, it should air out the smell.
24:29Then the plants is where we try to help with the cats.
24:32Basically, we put like rosemary, lavender plants, and we can actually mix them in the landscape,
24:38which they don't like the smell of them.
24:40Oh, they don't like lavender.
24:41They don't like the smell.
24:42It's not going to hurt them, harmful, but it's just something they don't like,
24:45and they'll go somewhere else.
24:46Well, we already had $10,000 planned for our landscaping plants.
24:50We can swap out some of these for cat repellent ones.
24:54Let's go in the back.
24:55Okay.
24:55Look at this massive backyard.
24:57We have to make a real big impact.
25:00So we're really going to lean into our jungle theme.
25:02Obviously, we keep all the fruit trees.
25:05Okay, got it.
25:05But clean up all the other stuff.
25:07Make a big planter on this side.
25:09And then I'm going to come back with my buddy Nalu to install a pergola out here.
25:14So like if you have a multi-gen family and one family's living upstairs, one's downstairs,
25:19the pergola area can be a gathering spot for them to enjoy each other's company.
25:26And the backyard.
25:28Try and till this as much as we can.
25:31Like get all the rubbish out.
25:33Give it a couple days.
25:34A max three days, you know, would be everything.
25:36Okay.
25:37Sounds good.
25:46We're pushing ahead on our I am project.
25:49Upstairs flooring is going in.
25:50Downstairs we're caught up with drywall and starting to paint.
25:55With access to all three spaces, we've reframed the old toilet fridge area into a new laundry room.
26:16How are you guys working in this mud?
26:18Wow.
26:19I mean, we're doing our best.
26:21You wore your pretty shoes.
26:22I mean.
26:25Looking good.
26:26I mean, check it out.
26:27Looking like a pergola.
26:28It's going to be sick.
26:30We have it right here on the phone.
26:31The jungle vision is coming together.
26:34But the one thing I noticed when I hear more road now more than ever,
26:39because we got rid of a lot of the trees that were back here.
26:42Can we do anything about that?
26:46Well, there is actually a creek running back there.
26:50What if we brought the creek sound onto our property with a water feature?
26:57Helps drown out the noise.
26:59I'm down.
27:00I think it's leaning way into jungle.
27:03Well, I guess I have to go find a water feature now.
27:06Yeah, you do.
27:07I mean, but there is still one massive problem.
27:11What?
27:12It still smells like cat pee.
27:14You guys don't smell that?
27:16I got hit with it right in the front again.
27:20It doesn't matter how beautiful we make it back here.
27:23Water features, pergolas, fire pits, jungle book.
27:26If it smells like pee, no one's going to want to buy this house.
27:36All right.
27:36Well, what are you saying then?
27:38We got to do something like you go research.
27:40Yeah, no.
27:41Can we spray something?
27:42Can we till more?
27:43We, I remember in the beginning when we smelt it like so much.
27:47I talked to Reagan and Reagan said there are enzyme sprays that can help with the smell.
27:54I can go hunt them down and look for them.
27:57I need you to spray the crap.
27:59I'll go get the enzyme spray, spray the crap out of the yard, and we'll hopefully get a hold of
28:07it.
28:07It's a good plan.
28:08All right.
28:09Happy building.
28:11It's going to look good.
28:18So today I'm heading into Waimanalo to Big Rock to look for a water feature for our IAEA house.
28:28Okay.
28:29So we're starting to hear like a bunch of sound from like the road behind.
28:35So we think a water feature would help like drown that out.
28:40You've come to the right place.
28:42Yeah.
28:42Let's go.
28:42All right.
28:43Okay.
28:43Okay.
28:43Right this way.
28:45We have some unexpected expenses in the backyard, but we do have a contingency budget.
28:51Being able to create this oasis is going to add a ton of value.
28:56So we have a few different types of waterfall features.
28:59This one's my favorite because of the sound of the water.
29:03Like what are we talking about price-wise?
29:06So with our prefab waterfall features, price range starts at about $1,500 all the way up to $7,000.
29:12Okay.
29:13Yeah.
29:14So I like this one, but I do think this one's probably a little bit too big for the space.
29:19Okay.
29:20I did see one that was out in the front.
29:28So this is our eagle wazoo.
29:30I like it because it's not taking up a ton of real estate, but it's also taller.
29:35Yes.
29:35So it has like a lot of sound.
29:38What are we looking at price-wise?
29:40It's about $4,500 roughly.
29:42Okay.
29:43I feel like we do this one.
29:44You got it.
29:45Easy.
29:55Let's go.
29:56This is a fresh cut grass scent.
29:58I mean, this is what you said we got to do.
30:00With only a few weeks left, I have a solution for the cat stink problem.
30:07We are going to use the most powerful enzyme spray and put it everywhere.
30:14You got to get down up in there.
30:21In the second level unit, tile is going up in the hall bathroom and the primary shower.
30:27Upstairs in the foyer, Tris and I are laying out the large format checkered tile.
30:32Now, it's all hands on deck to finish the exterior.
30:36White stucco is going to make this house really pop from the street.
30:40And we're laying wood grain tile on the stairs to the second floor
30:44for a durable and modern entrance to the main living space.
30:49Inside, cabinets have arrived.
30:51And we're working to assemble and install in all three spaces and the laundry room.
31:03I mean, it looks good though.
31:05I mean, I love the tile and the stairs.
31:06I think this was like necessary.
31:09It's happening.
31:10It's random and they look good.
31:12Light fixtures are starting to go in.
31:14Yeah.
31:14No, they look really good.
31:16There's a lot going on.
31:18Well, there's three different units.
31:20This is the most complex design.
31:23We have three of everything to get into this house.
31:25Three sets of cabinets, four bathrooms, finishes everywhere.
31:29And we have four days to finish this house.
31:46I don't know how we did it, but we made it to staging day.
31:50All of the final pieces are coming together.
31:51But this is a three living space property, so there's still a lot to do.
31:56Do you have any fake plants that dangle down?
31:59I do.
32:00I think that would be cool there.
32:01That's what I think.
32:02Perfect.
32:13Oh my gosh, babe.
32:15What?
32:16My water falls here.
32:17Oh my gosh.
32:18Is that what that thing is speaking out?
32:20Yes.
32:21What did you buy?
32:23It's huge.
32:24You said waterfall in the backyard.
32:27Dude, we got a waterfall, baby.
32:30So rad.
32:31Right?
32:31Okay, I got something you can carry.
32:34Okay.
32:36No, it's not that heavy.
32:39I thought you just died.
32:45Straight back, straight back.
32:51Look at that!
32:52Woo!
32:53Let's go!
32:54Wow, babe.
32:55I'm impressed.
32:57Sick, right?
32:59Give Hummel High a round of applause.
33:11Cute.
33:12Looks good.
33:13I absolutely love it.
33:15This house is night and day from what it was.
33:18Top five worst houses.
33:21I'm very interested to hear what Sean thinks about it because there's definitely nothing like this
33:29that has ever sold within the last five years.
33:32So we're at the top of the market in this area.
33:37Speaking of Sean, he said he's coming down the street.
33:40Well, let's go outside.
33:42Yep.
33:43Oh, wow.
33:44Look at this.
33:45Did it again.
33:46What's up, bud?
33:47How are you?
33:47How are you?
33:48Check it out.
33:49What a nice pop.
33:51The visual with the blue, white, and the wood comes together with the green.
33:55It's just a good combo.
33:57Agreed.
33:57Honestly, I feel like the biggest transformation that we've had all year.
34:03There was rats in here.
34:05Oh.
34:05It was...
34:06This house is literally rats to riches.
34:08Like, it was not rags, rats to riches.
34:12Yeah, you did a great job.
34:13You took the worst house in the street and transformed it to probably the best house in the whole neighborhood
34:18now.
34:19Sean, do you smell anything?
34:22I don't smell anything now.
34:23No.
34:23Yeah.
34:24Good.
34:24Yeah.
34:24It's gone now.
34:26Not only did it look bad, but the second you stepped onto the driveway, you smelled like cat pee.
34:32It was like they were using the yard as their litter box.
34:37I think we start downstairs.
34:39The door you see right there.
34:41And we're gonna...
34:42Are you ready?
34:42Let's see the inside.
34:43Let's go.
34:43It's a build-up.
34:43It's a crescendo.
34:44Yeah.
34:45We gotta take you through all the others to lead you to the main event.
34:48Let's go.
34:49Door number one.
34:51Ready?
34:53Ta-da!
34:55Hey, look at the details.
34:56This felt like a dungeon.
35:00And you utilized so many different colors, but they all come together.
35:02As you can see in here, we didn't hold anything back.
35:06Like, where are you gonna find custom two-tone cabs like this?
35:11In a secondary living space.
35:12It's unassuming when you're coming downstairs, usually you don't get anything good with the lower ceilings and whatnot.
35:17But yeah, I think they'll be pleasantly surprised that, wow, this is like an extension of the main.
35:23Before, I didn't even want to be in here.
35:25And right here is where rat snows were falling from the ceiling.
35:30Everything was gutted and everything is brand new.
35:33You have three bedrooms down that hallway.
35:37Wow, you fit three.
35:38They feel really good size for a downstairs bedroom and a beautiful, perfect-sized bathroom.
35:44Packed in a lot in this space.
35:46Yeah.
35:46Really well done.
35:48It's its own unit.
35:49It's its own living space.
35:51It still feels very elevated.
35:53This is just the beginning.
35:54Are you ready?
35:55Let's go.
35:57Right here.
35:58This is the designated laundry room.
36:03How'd you fit this one in?
36:04What was here before?
36:05It was like a pass through to the next place we're gonna take you.
36:09This is a single family house but with multiple living spaces.
36:13We wanted a designated laundry that everybody could have access to.
36:19Location's perfect for it.
36:21It's pretty convenient.
36:22Let's move on.
36:23So this one's cool because you can't even tell it's here from driving up to the house.
36:30Wow.
36:32Obviously, it's kind of staged like a lounge.
36:34The easy vibe.
36:46Oh, I love it.
36:47It's so cool.
36:49Yeah, I love the pop of color with the wallpaper.
36:51It's bold but still cohesive to the other spaces.
36:53You gotta have the dry bar so they can see that it's usable.
36:59Exactly.
36:59You know what I mean?
37:00Like it's giving kitchen without having a kitchen.
37:03It's like sophisticated jungle book.
37:05Yeah.
37:05That's what I'm coining it.
37:07I love it.
37:07That's it.
37:08This is your studio.
37:09This is your studio.
37:10We got one more.
37:11I will call it the main space.
37:13Let's go check it out.
37:14It's up there.
37:16Main event.
37:18There goes it.
37:19Door number four.
37:21Wow.
37:24Door number four.
37:26This is amazing.
37:28This tile welcomes you.
37:30And that's that same tile that ties everything in but you got both tones.
37:33So good.
37:34It's a small area but it's a big impact when you walk in.
37:37We have two bedrooms.
37:39One off the right, one off the left.
37:40Bedroom one.
37:41Wow.
37:42Stage as an office.
37:43And then you have second bedroom here.
37:46Now this originally was the kitchen.
37:49Wow.
37:49It was bad.
37:51It was small and gross.
37:52Turning that into this.
37:55Crazy.
37:57Transformations amazing.
37:58It's wild.
37:59And then back on this side, you have the hall bath.
38:02Wow.
38:03So blue and cabinetry.
38:04Another color.
38:04Is this a different color than the floor?
38:06Okay.
38:07Uh-huh.
38:07It all ties in.
38:08That's really good.
38:09And believe it or not, this side was actually the living room before.
38:13It's not a huge space and we needed to fit the three bedrooms, two bathrooms in it.
38:17But the only way to do that was to get rid of everything.
38:21But just scrap it and start all over.
38:24Now it's the main living space.
38:26So you have living and kitchen.
38:28This is my favorite space of all the different doors.
38:31It was the main event, right?
38:32Check it all out.
38:34And this is the same piano tile.
38:36It's downstairs.
38:37Kind of like a fluted, but a different tone.
38:39It's so soothing and subtle and jungly and fun.
38:43It works.
38:44The fixtures, everything ties in all the units so nicely.
38:46But super custom still.
38:48To be able to fit everything in, I think you did really well.
38:52Well, you ready to go see the primary?
38:53Let's go.
38:54Yeah, we fit a primary in here.
38:57Oh, geez.
38:58This is...
38:59It's a good size.
38:59This is a good size.
39:00Yeah.
39:01Well, everything kind of flows, checks every box.
39:03And then it has its own ensuite.
39:04You can see how we tied all the colors together.
39:08Oh, that's cool.
39:09So I wanted to tie in the coral to the wallpaper downstairs
39:14and go more fun with color, you know?
39:16Because it's still in the neutral family.
39:18And then you have, like, the deepest shower.
39:20Look at this shower.
39:21This is a good size shower.
39:22I don't know how you fit everything in.
39:24I don't know how we did either.
39:26Amazing.
39:27This is only the inside of the house.
39:30We did some special things to the backyard.
39:33Yeah, well, we can go through that door, which means
39:35what, door number five.
39:37Five.
39:37Five or six.
39:38Door number five.
39:39Yeah.
39:40What?
39:42Are you kidding me?
39:43You got a full jungle here.
39:45I had no idea.
39:47This was not a yard before that you even wanted to be in.
39:52This was a glitter bomb.
39:53So now it's a place where you can actually see your kids playing, you can enjoy, experience
40:00the jungle versus having it be overwhelming and overbearing on you.
40:04Beautiful.
40:05This is so rare because we're right in the pit of, like, busyness.
40:08This is the hub.
40:09And to have this, like, it's such an offset.
40:12You do not tell for a minute that you're in a huge metro.
40:16It feels so private and secluded.
40:20So many buyers would kind of request that, but it's not always possible to find the perfect match.
40:24You're walking on brand new steps that never existed.
40:26I know.
40:27It was really smart to tie it into the yard so you don't have to go through the front door.
40:30Right?
40:30Right.
40:31The water feature, pergola.
40:33Are you kidding me?
40:33Yeah.
40:34We really wanted this backyard to feel like a private oasis to tie into this beautiful jungle
40:41right behind your house.
40:43You nailed it.
40:44I mean, you can't pay for something like this.
40:46So good.
40:47It's good.
40:47Yeah.
40:47Unbelievable.
40:48Good, good, good.
40:49Yeah.
40:50This one was tough.
40:51It was a tough house to actually renovate because of the condition, but it was also hard to figure
40:59out numbers on it.
41:00I'm interested to hear what you think.
41:02We were actually around 1-4 possibly plus before I walked it.
41:08Yeah.
41:08And before I knew there was a third unit.
41:10Right.
41:11So once I heard about that and we're thinking we're closer to the 1-4-5 and possibly close
41:17to five actually, which is uncharacteristic in this neighborhood to find this price point.
41:22But what you've done is not the typical, right?
41:25Right.
41:25I am happy to hear that you have landed around that area.
41:30I would feel comfortable at like 1-4-9-0.
41:35Mm-hmm.
41:35Yeah.
41:35Let's let the market do its sink.
41:37Let's go.
41:37Rats to riches.
41:39Yep.
41:39Rats to riches.
41:47Hello everybody.
41:48We have an opportunity to bless this holly.
42:08We have an opportunity to bless this holly.
42:15We have an opportunity to bless this holly.
42:20Warning, it's a miracle we got through it.
42:23So we listed the property at 1.49 million.
42:27Oh wow.
42:28It's so private back here.
42:30I like that they all have entrance with easy access.
42:34Yeah.
42:35We got awesome feedback at the open house.
42:37We had multiple offers right away and we decided to go with an offer at 1.475 to a family
42:46that was
42:46looking for a multi-gen space.
42:48And if we close on this property, we'll make a profit of $200,000.
42:54That's huge.
42:55We made another great home for a deserving family.
