Austin Flipsters Personally as an older rehabbed home, having to provide all window treatments & a shower enclosure is a pretty big expense for a potential buyers. I know window treatments are subjective so that makes sense but I’m sure the buyer took having to close the shower in as part of their negotiation.

[@allisonjae3152]

It was a cute house, but I thought the design to be a little boring.

[@AustinFlipsters]

Allison Jae Thanks for watching! It’s always a balance on a flip house to get the design to be interesting but not overly specific so that it will appeal to the broadest audience possible.

[@allisonjae3152]

@@AustinFlipsters I know. I'm a house flipper too. Best kitchen I ever did was black and red. The buyers loved, but other people who came to the house tour didn't. Me and my partner bought the house for $6300 and invested 50k and sold it for 85k.

2 things: painting stone or brick looks 3rd class. Stucco isn't that expensive, but would have added value. Likewise with shiplap. 2: Gray cabinets with brown wood floors: no, not the best look. A darker blue or a darker green: awesome with that lighter oak floor. They would complement the floors nicely. It could even be a grayish blue or a grayish green. Plain gray is so overused.

I'm with you on this. The stone fireplace looked great and should have been left alone! All renovators these days hate actual stone or brick fireplaces. They have to be painted, usually white, or encased in painted wood or tile. They also hate actual wood finishes and paint everything white.

[@meganelise277]

Subway TILE isn’t out, but basic white subway laid in an offset/brick pattern is. The more ripply/handmade surface is cool, herringbone and basketweave patterns are awesome, and white is still fine as long it’s a different pattern or texture. I also like a contrasting grout, either a medium-light gray or charcoal depending on the rest of the design.

Needed the barn door in the master. Having the sink visible in the master is so dated. And a glass door on the master shower. It looks like you just forgot something without it. Do like the painted fireplace rock.

[@AustinFlipsters]

Yeah! I agree Dewye!

[@virginiasoskin9082]

Barn doors are going to look SO dated in such a short period of time. OMGGGG!! Pocket door perhaps harder to install but much more classic. Remember those weird 1950's accordion doors made of some plastic fabric like woven-look vinyl? Those were super ugly.

[@kenhall2542]

[@TheMiguel1601]

I understand this was about budget friendly and all BUT this was barely a flip, all the best places where it could have made an impact they decided not to go with! I was over the moon when they were going with a barn style home and I thought what an amazing flip! I was super duper disappointed that they decided to go for the shiplap or the barn doors!

[@tonibauer2949]

I like the painted stone. In my last house I found an ugly drab gray stone fireplace that gave the entire living room an aura of sadness. I mixed up some latex paints to a shade with some white, brown, and golden tones diluted by water. Washed it on with a sponge. It actually still looked like natural rock, but was now a bright focal point that cheered up the room rather than bringing it down. If someone else decided they preferred to paint it white, that would be cool by me.

[@AustinFlipsters]

[@ladybugxxable]

Agree

[@charlesbochar8681]

I work at a flooring store and let me tell you --> SUBWAY TILE is VERY popular.

[@virginiasoskin9082]

LOVE the painted fireplace -- gives it a real whitewashed farmhouse look and cheaper than shiplap -- take that Fixer Uppers! I think shiplap would end up looking dated. Also love classic subway tile -- nice use of a herringbone pattern in the bathrooms. Love the flooring which gives the place a Scandinavian very clean cool vibe which is probably great in Austin which I suspect is as hot as FL is where I live -- anything making a house appear cooler is good. The odd feel to the master bath was caused by that odd ceiling configuration. Once you made the door opening a rectangle, the feel was much better; also doors opening toward the bedroom eliminated the door conundrum you were working through. I do not mind a vanity being open to the bedroom, it just depends how you paint it, what color cabinetry and counter you select, and the type of mirror and lighting. If things are stowed away like cosmetics, hair dryers, etc., it can look super nice with a faux plant or fake candle on a timer to use as a romantic night light. Those fake candles are cat-friendly so there ya go!

[@pat8112]

Wow, just read the comments down below, why do people have such opinionated rhetoric, I would understand if they were doing this stuff themselves, but just seems that everyone is a critic when they are behind a keyboard.

I also did the backyard which included a deck, pergola and outdoor kitchen. I think that I got lucky and doubled my initial investment on the resale.

I think it was a bit too white. I want to see more paint colors. Didnt like the white brick or at least should have been more washed out. Hated the open vanity in the master as it reminded me of an old apartment. I think with high ceilings, you need to hang pictures higher up to draw the eye up and accentuate the height.

[@dejonm1021]

The fireplace looks great, but and I will put a big but, white on a fireplace in the long run is a big hassle. I have had plenty of fireplaces in the past that have been white and had to change because they just get way too dirty and show all the soot and everything else you can throw at them. I’ve seen a German smear technique done on brick and always wondered if it would work on other types of masonry. My preference is that any house I get HAS to have glass doors on my tub or shower. I’m not a fan of having a mildewed shower curtain touching my body during my shower. Ewwww. That’s the first thing we put in when we bought our house and it was an added expense I’d rather spend on something else. Other than that the house looks awesome! You guys do amazing work. I’m moving to Texas soon and came across your channel not too long ago and all the videos I’ve seen so far have lightened my day and given me ideas for what I want when I get there. 🥰👍🏼

[@AustinFlipsters]

Thanks for watching Mr.A. Depends on the house. We do color sometimes, but white is the most neutral. The design on real house flips has to have the most broad appeal so it will sell.

[@TheBloodVodka]

@@AustinFlipsters Thanks! You guys are the best!

[@bevcrusher4177]

You can learn! I would advise very strongly against paying a designer, if you're not well acquainted with their work, and know them to be highly regarded by reputable architects. Obviously that means a very expensive designer, so if you're flipping houses for less than a million it's overkill. Far better to teach yourself a broad overview of 20thC architecture and design, and spend time really looking at what works in beautifully designed houses. It's FAR more about understanding space, light, textures, and colour, than it is about the cost of fittings and fixtures. It's possible to create a masterpiece for $10k by choosing houses with excellent bones and solid original kitchens and bathrooms. A bad flipper would gut everything and spend $100k replacing it, to achieve the same result ... or as is often the case, a worse result. You can do it. You just have to be interested.

10:20 I have those doors they are beautiful but the downside is they break so easy they always get caught and stuck..

Imagine the future buyers seeing this video and hearing him say “something stupid go here” and how much they would hate that. The jokes you try to make are in very bad taste and should definitely be more thought out in the future

Thanks For watching Delanie. This was more of a joke at our own expense meaning we would put something stupid there...not the buyers of the house.

Good job on the flip with the cat house, but too much white imho
