Made a video just like this of my 500 sqft nyc studio apt!

Great job for the house layout is great and I like everything and parking is great

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Chevy Chase! I work Amazon Flex and deliver packages and groceries. When I get the Chevy Chase route, I get so EXCITED!! It’s quiet and beautiful! I rolled up on a block party in one for neighborhood. They had the street blocked. I squeezed by a little to as close I could to the house. I greeted everyone, they greeted me. Once I delivered l, they offered me some food. Super kind people. I got some desserts and those brownies were so GOOD!! 😂😂 They are always nice when I deliver through there!!! 😀

This could be a nice luxury apartment. This property got a lot of potential and I appreciate these young brothers working together to build generational wealth. I wish them great success and hope their dreams come true.

Interesting

I actually really like this property....it has a lot of character. Spacious for the amount of units.

I grew up about 5 blocks away on Barrington road, this houses we thought were black Hollywood, the talented tenth lived there...amazing walk through...

I really love your videos. Like this one showcasing these brothers on their goals and I am sending positive vibes that they're successful! I would love to see "The After." But I really need for you to establish a pattern as I have mentioned many times before. Right to left or left to right. That way you won't miss any rooms and avoid going back n forth...

Definitely want to see it when its renovated

The cost of clearing the property looks ( I’m just a layman) to be the amount quoted for the over all Reno. Considering the location of the building, it seems as the investors would also hire an architect for design input. As you stated at the outset, the building has the appearance (presently) of an old church. For the property to bring a righteous return………those fellows are looking at a couple of million to me. As I said, I have a layman’s opinion but structurally the place has been neglected so long it will take more than just a “dream” to bring it back to its original intent. To be utilized as a rental, the appeal would have to be outstanding ! The young men sound intelligent but didn’t talk much about design, etc. Perhaps their insight is swinging toward an area that is not necessarily homestead.❤

Please Johnathan post it again after renovation.

Congratulations on Terrell and his friend on buying that building. Realistically I could see the renovation cost being double of their expectations. I sincerely hope they will be successful in completing the reno and look forward to Johnathan showing the results. The only other issue I can see besides the renovation is the busy traffic. Johnathan you're almost up there to 10k. I remember being a follower when you were at 3k and I hope that your numbers go to 100k. 😊😁😉

It definitely has potential! Would love to see the finish results though....smart move to open the kitchen up...J.M...I couldn't say right now...I wish you could go back after the renovation and then give us tour...but I like the size,and this is definitely a good investment property 👍and i hope those 2 young men are successful in the renovations✌️

It looks like an old mortuary.

I wrote a comment and forgot to save! I believe that's an art deco pendant light in the foyer. Beautiful house. Please show it again when it's fixed up.

I don't know Jonathan. That looks more alike, two hundred and fifty thousand dollar renovation to me. But I wish them young men the best..

Are these young men contractors and if so are they going to do the work themselves? They will need a lot of help and money. Good luck to all involved.

It is impressive to see the young investors. Great location and the structure looks good. Kudos and much success 🙌🏽 in the project.

This will be really nice when it’s done. Also, how many yeah’s did you guys count?😂😂😂

This house was one grand house when it was owned by my great aunt.

Good luck young men❤

I'd buy it

They're going to put a cosmetic band-aid on it and try and rent it to a "one born every minute," type.

I don't want a rental property, therefore I wouldn't purchase it, but I'm happy for the investors. A bit of unsolicited advice for the investors; $100/$150 thousand is not a lot of money, and with a project that size, there is going to be cost overrun. Know who you are hiring as your contractors, because having to constantly switch out contractors can eat into your funds, and quickly kill your project. Wishing you guys the best.

This property has great potential. *It’s a very ambitious project and it’s going to cost quite a bit of money. However, with careful planning and the right approach, it can become a valuable investment.* Shortcuts are not an option. They need to consult with reputable contractors who understand what it takes to properly repair this house. Prioritize fixing the major issues first. Some necessary repairs, like the roof, electrical system, plumbing, and railings, will be costly but essential, even if they aren't immediately noticeable. Not sure where they are in the process, but they need a very good inspector. If there’s a concern about termites, have a pest control company come out. Unless this is a “as is” sale, their agent should make sure that everything is disclosed, including latent (hidden) defects. Here are some practical tips: 1. *Budget Wisely*: Create a detailed budget that includes all potential expenses. Allocate funds for unexpected repairs that might arise during the renovation process. 2. *Get Multiple Quotes*: Don't settle for the first contractor you find. Get quotes from several contractors to ensure you're getting a fair price and quality work. 3. *Focus on Durability*: Choose durable materials that can withstand wear and tear. For example, opt for vinyl flooring instead of carpet, as it's easier to clean and lasts longer. 4. *Energy Efficiency*: Invest in energy-efficient appliances and insulation. This not only reduces utility bills but also makes the property more attractive to potential tenants. 5. *Permits and Inspections*: Ensure all work complies with local building codes and regulations. Obtain necessary permits and schedule inspections to avoid legal issues down the road. 6. *Plan for Maintenance*: Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs in the future. Create a maintenance schedule for HVAC systems, plumbing, and electrical components. Research the current rental rates in the area and consult with real estate agents to understand the market demand. Is it a good location? Is there a demand in this area? It's important to know the laws regarding multiple occupants and determine whether it would be more profitable to cater to families, students, professionals, or a certain demographic and attraction (businesses, colleges, a large event centers, transportation stations in the area etc). Talking to other investors in the area can provide valuable insights. Avoid being persuaded to include costly features that could affect the budget, such as saunas, expensive fixtures, or balconies. That will not increase the rent amount, but a good washer/dryer hook up, decent parking, and/or private entries could be a good option . Practical decisions are crucial for rental properties. If you choose carpets, be prepared to replace them every 5-7 years, especially if tenants have pets. Opt for a neutral paint color throughout the house to make it easier to repaint when tenants move out. Understand that this process will take time, but it will be worth the investment if the numbers add up. Here's some additional advice: 1. *Screen Tenants Thoroughly*: Implement a thorough tenant screening process to ensure reliable and responsible tenants. 2. *Consider Property Management*: If managing the property yourself seems overwhelming, consider hiring a property management company. They can handle tenant issues, maintenance, and rent collection. This also helps eliminate “friends” wanting to move in. 3. *Enhance Curb Appeal*: First impressions matter. Invest in landscaping and exterior improvements to make the property more attractive, but NOT excessive landscaping. A Neat and a well trimmed yard, with 2 large flower pots (or flower beds) is a great place to start AFTER major repairs are complete. 4. *Safety First*: Ensure the property meets all safety standards. Install smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and secure locks on doors and windows. By planning carefully, you'll increase the chances of a successful and profitable rental property investment. Please get good estimates before you sink a lot of money into this property. If you have to go with something a little smaller, it’s ok. Know your strengths and limitations. Stay patient and committed to the process, and you'll see great returns in the long run. Understand that it will take time.

Great investment property to me without knowing the area comps. Good luck young men and look forward to the finished remodel.

Is this Druid Hill Park in Baltimore?

Sir we better get an update when they finish

I would love to see the renovation once it is completed. Kudos to these young men.

I would keep that entryway floor~~a good clean and polish, it would look nice. I wonder if they couldn't also save some of the bathrooms' black and white flooring? I agree that with time, money, and great help, this could be a great investment. I'm sure the neighbors will appreciate them bringing this house back to its original beauty. Please, please make arrangements to see this home after they finish!! I wish these young men much success!!!

Yikes! A lot of work, but doable. Good luck!

Don't kill young peoples dream. They are young and have more energy. When you get older, you want a house already done or just don't want to move because you invested so much time and money. 21 years in, just put a new roof on a new heater and hot water heater.

It's a beautiful multi-family property that will require $$$$$ to remodel properly to produce a good return per unit and ultimately decent profit. Please get good, honest contractors and be your own project manager. Get expert advice about areas of construction you don't know, to understand and question contractors work, step by step. Otherwise results can fall way short of optimal.

I look forward to seeing this project when those young men have completed it. Wishing them much success ❤❤

This house is definitely custom, but beautifully custom! I agree the location is WRONG!

I pray that these young men achieve whatever they need to be successful and prosperous in their endeavors.

Congratulations guys and Jonathan please share the progress when they're done

That's a money pit 😬

Wow that's a major job $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ If done right go for it.

Love this old home, needs a lot of work, if I had the money I would restore it.

Thumbs down bruh👎🏾..I'd pass🤷🏾‍♂️

I’d like to see it after it is renovated.

Oh heck No Not one penny

Hello Mr. Montgomery! This house is charming. I especially love the floors. However, $2.9M is too high, given that the kitchen, living room, and all bathrooms need to be remodeled, the lighting throughout the house needs to be updated, and a few bedrooms need closets. Keep up the great work, I enjoy your channel.

Very interesting house, a no for me😮

$4.5M Ok, I was a little off🧐 Beautiful home, needs minor repairs. This is too much house. Thanks for sharing 👍🏾

Beautiful home

A really nice house!

This is one of the best homes you have displayed on your channel

I love kenwood and the home which appears turnkey.
