Checking Out A Mobile Home That Got Repossessed!

[@kma9292]

Some people really look down on people that live in mobile homes. I don't see anything wrong with living in a mobile home as long as it is anchored down with hurricane straps. If it is not anchored they always feel unstable to me. Sometimes a mobile home is all that someone can afford but that does not make them bad or trashy people. People should not judge others especially if they haven't walked in their shoes.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Say it louder so the people in the back can hear you

[@Sally-ih6ls]

And kept clean and maintained!

[@RitaRenay]

I was raised up living in a mobile home in the 70's, one called a 1970 "Parkette" mom didn't have the $ to have the tie-downs put on our trailer. The hurricanes would come & go, the house shook a little bit, but us 3 did just fine

[@annienewman8312]

knew a family who lived in one because one member had health and mobile issues. a mobile home was easier for them to get around and clean.

[@speyerboot]

this one kinda broke my heart, im assuming it was the prev owners trying to "upgrade" this unit, so it see the new add ons right next to the heavily molded walls just made me sad, some poor kid was playing in that room and now to think they're homeless :(

[@mybrotherdonnie]

They’re probably not homeless. Hopefully they traded it in on a new model, but you would think they would’ve cleaned it out a little better.

[@jackiec805]

@@mybrotherdonnieif you’re planning on trashing something, would you put the effort into cleaning it? That said, depending on the state, there may be a law requiring the storage for anything left inside.

[@reginawhitlock4227]

One of.my coworkers was buying a mobile home she fell behind on her payments and they were going to repo it she was up all night cleaning out of pride, you know it was so neat and clean and shiny the people didn't have the heart to take it and so they worked on a new payment plan where she could get caught up and keep her home

[@dianeferguson1074]

I feel for anyone who lost their home!!!

[@Ssjbgoku8673]

Some of the loans are set up so payments keep increasing and people can't pay so Repo people come. That's how my mom lost her home.

[@jaya.0069]

I did apartment maintenance and always hated the evictions. The stereo/tape player was interesting. Thanks for taking us along.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

You’re welcome thanks for going along

[@trishagail353]

30 years ago, when this mh was new, it was really nice, but years and probably multiple owners have taken a toll on the old gal. The mold in the playroom is horribly sad. I can't believe they left the cast iron fry pans!!!!! Thanks for respecting people's privacy and not videoing the photos. Great video!! On to the next...

[@mybrotherdonnie]

No reason to disrespect somebody

[@Jr.Ronnie]

Thanks for the video, guys 👊 Hope the subscribers and ya'll have a blessed day 🙏 This one definitely has the brain running. I hope the family is doing OK. It's pretty safe to assume this 💯 % was a repo, especially when you said "Don't point the camera there 📷. .🖼 wedding photos left behind 😔. 🙏

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yeah, I’m pretty sure it was a repo

[@prissilou]

Well, we came by on Saturday but we didn't see you boys out in the yard, just a white SUV, but no matter, we went on to the family reunion. Still enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for the videos. 🤗

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thank you for watching we wasn’t there Saturday

[@fu4383]

It’s cool that guy was respectful of that family.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

That’s how we was raised, not put people down

[@Nunya_Bidnez]

Good luck Donnie. Much love brothers.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

That

[@judymills2362]

With new plywood floors and the leaks fixed, I would much rather have this one.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Ok

[@angiebuell6121]

I love the kitchen lay out.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Layout was good

[@scottrogers2831]

Depressing. Keep ‘em coming. 😉

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks

[@kathrinekerns8398]

Sometimes people try things to help, but, it doesn't always work out that way. Like the windows. I think this one would need some different windows and attention to the floors.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yep I think you’re on the right track

[@nancyison7481]

Ya know Donnie and Ronnie we have our mobile home in northern Michigan on 20 acres and ours came out of a mobile home park where the people were behind on there lot rent. They were working on it new roof new paint and new windows double pane like those in this one done correctly. We paid 900.00$ for it and 900.00 to move it 200 miles. Updated the inside and it’s the best thing we ever done. We’ve had it since 1997 and it’s a 1977 Schultz

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Around here they charge 3 to 4000 just to move a single wide

[@nancyison7481]

We got a deal it was headed for the shredder. They reuse the frame and axles. They put a new mobile home where this one was in the park where this one sat.

[@Cricket28000]

I absolutely LOVE YALLS VIDEOS 📹 KEEP EM COMING IT gives so many ideas ❤

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks for watching.

[@dm7600]

I would say the walk-in closet in the master bathroom, was originally a garden tub. If you look at the trim on the ceiling in the master bedroom (7:56), looks like that is where the closet was at

[@mybrotherdonnie]

You’re probably right

[@carllivengood395]

I'd love to have those cast iron pans on the floor in the kitchen 😍

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yep

[@THEM-BONES-1]

I miss seeing you work on your vehicles. Any plans for you to do that in the future? Hi Ronnie!

[@mybrotherdonnie]

KZbin screws us up every time we put one out it screws up the whole. rhythm.

[@naytch2003]

The monitor could do with a recap and you should definitely replace the flyback Donnie..oh and Power supply Power supply Power supply!!..apart from that it aint that bad 😉

[@mybrotherdonnie]

I thank the power supply is good

[@naytch2003]

@@mybrotherdonnie Yes it does..Maybe Joe ought to come on one of your mobile home visits..say one Sunday when the shop is closed? 😉

[@prissilou]

Did notice that a metal roof was added, they put that on with about 3 inches of foam insulation, so that's a plus, we had that done on ours back in the day.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

That is a plus

[@josephleonaitis2422]

BLACK MOLD FORMS VERY EASILY IN MOBILE HOMES. IT IS COMMON AROUND WINDOW AIR CONDITIONERS OR SITTING IN A LOT AND PARTIALLY OPENED. AS WELL AS, FLOOR AND DRYWALL DETERIORATION. IT TAKES A LOT OF EFFORT TO CLEAN OUT THE MOLD. FINIS PAX

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Ain’t no problem

[@pawnjawatkins5925]

i had a 96 peach state doublewide and it had the same panel board in the kitchen that was in that master closet

[@mybrotherdonnie]

That’s cool thanks for sharing

[@stevecampion4883]

I enjoy your videos a lot. Did you ever want to try making a house out of the steel shipping containers? Seems like they would hold up better in an area that gets hurricanes on a regular basis.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

They might, but I’ve always heard. They was a pain to get to cool off I heard to have three times more air conditioner than what you needed.

[@RitaRenay]

😮Mine was just like that one, inside & out except it was the natural finish...white wash, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, w/carpet. Kept it for about 25 yrs.

[@RitaRenay]

Look under the cabinets & you could see the ground, floors messed up, front door messed up, storm door fell off yrs. ago. Inside the front door looking like sawdust all on the floor😮🤷😞. Rebuild NC company gave me a new one...the one called Glory w/3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kind of small, but blessed to have it.😊❤

[@RitaRenay]

Miss my Ceiling fan 😢

[@mybrotherdonnie]

25 years must had a good run

[@RosemaryBlantonCrosslin]

I have lived in and owned 4 trailers/ mobile homes and loved them. I have own 2 houses and loved them too but I would love to live in a mobile home again. I love it but it needs a lot of work especially with mold that comes from water ?

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yeah, I’m probably not gonna pick this one

[@debradavis768]

This one needs some TLC. I know y'all could patch it up. (maybe a little more than just a patch job, lol) For the right price, who knows.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

For the right price everything is doable

[@andreabyrge5524]

All the ones you look at you should get this you can make great

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Ok

[@carllivengood395]

Nice layout.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks

[@deronhanson5454]

Can always be worse-my freshman year in high school, my parents bought a repo single wide-paid $1000.00 for it, including move & setup-had to be completely rewired from the breaker box out, totally re plumbed, as it 90% of the plumbing was gone, & had to put a floor back in it, as the floor, from front bedroom all the way back to the end of the trailer was gone

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Craziness

[@purpI_3]

that house would have been really nice when it was new

[@jockoharpo2622]

Ronnie and Donnie. They repoed it yanked up the straps and drug them plum to Darlington. You probably could have traced it's origination before the clay dirt clods washed off the road.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yep lol

[@sewndebisdream6953]

The Good and the Bad and the Ugly on this one😂

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yep

[@charliemartin-k7m]

I'm working on a house from the 70s and I oddly would want the kitchen cabinets out of it.

[@southmemphisbro27]

Keep up the good work

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks for watching

[@shirleyyoung1941]

Good day to you guys✋🖐 what makes those windows leak like that? Hope the water damage isnt to bad! You guys can fix anything its just how much???🤑🤑🤑🤑money pit!!!

[@mybrotherdonnie]

I think it’s the big brick molding they put around the windows

[@deborahmaehs7604]

I have to wonder if the way the new wood frame windows were installed eventually contributed to the leaks in the interior walls. It is heartbreaking to think that children lived here and played in those moldy rooms. There is definitely a story here if wedding photos were left behind.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

I was thinking the same thing

[@PATRICIAInmon-t5b]

The mold how do you ever get ride of it?Families that are rough and can't fix as it tears up these are gone no matter how expensive.

[@purpI_3]

model name?

[@deborahmaehs7604]

I am guessing you guys decided to pass on this one due to the mold damage.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

You would be guessing, right

[@theresaupton9370]

We put those type of house windows and doors in my moms. Looks like they just didn't have the experience on proper way to install.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@brianbloom1799]

I think You Fix the Leaks in that Trailer Get it cheap enough That would be Nice, with new Flooring and Pergo, If it wasn't for the OSB garbage used on the Floors they would all be a Easy fix

[@mybrotherdonnie]

That’s for sure

[@joannladybug2623]

Love these videos... Please share with me the contact info to inquire about purchasing a mobile home from this place...thanks so much in advance!

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Southern choice, homes, Darlington, South Carolina

[@Zepphd2]

I know you guys know your business, but I was wondering with Donnie and his kick a** crew, could you guys just build some small 2-3 bedroom houses yourselves? If new trailers are going for over $100,000 I figure they could build a house cheaper? Thanks for the video Guys!!

[@mybrotherdonnie]

If these prices stay like this coming soon

[@carvertmmy]

Where are your lots located? I’m needing to move.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Jefferson, South Carolina

[@Jordan-4-Him-NM]

Water damage and black mold. I don’t think it’s a good idea.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yeah, this might not be the one for us

[@brianbloom1799]

If You Guys are going to Keep Buying You Should invest In a Single axle Tractor, and someone with a class A License and Move them yourself. Down there I bet you could fine a short wheelbase single axle for 5000 or less

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Believe it or not, I’ve got a 65 Chevrolet C 60 single axle tractor and I have a CDL’s

[@WorldWideMediaGroup1]

looks like 96 or 99 model dad had one similar to this one

[@angelataylor3822]

That’s definitely water damage. They should have paid a dollar for that.I feel bad for the people who were buying that dumb they were being ripped off.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Nobody made them buy it

[@brianbloom1799]

Donnie I Believe, that's water Damage

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Just a little bit

[@jodyrayvictor]

The amount of mold in the play room makes me think that there's plumbing issues on top of a bad window install and all the windows are badly installed . My opinion, skip this one but also I've never remodeled or lived in a mobile home so y'all might know something I don't.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

We’re skipping this one

[@fu4383]

Don’t miss a payment on your $30,000 trailer folks..

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Trailers are not 30,000 anymore. This trailer New today would sell for around 100

[@jenniffer9034]

Has mold ....No way

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Has a little bit

[@steveosborne7901]

I'll never understand why they use particle board for the floor any Plumbing issues destroy the floors from the bottom up impossible to repair don't buy it

[@mybrotherdonnie]

If you have a problem, you have to replace the floor to

Who the hell gets a mobile home repoed!? Wow
