[@lz738]

This is the best flip you've done! Nothing seems cheap or like a flipper shortcut. It's just all massively improved. The neighbors must be very happy. That house was obviously a drug house hangout before. You guys should feel proud. Great job!

[@K78644]

why do you cook on gas??? that is so weird

[@shoshanachavab]

Gas is the only way to cook

[@theMr.K]

@@lz738 Except the couple who bought the house for flipping lost $28k . And whoever rennovated it defitinely OVERCHARGED them. 165k for fixing a 1553 sqft house is nuts, even for a full gut job. Poor Susan and Rob

[@TH3ROCKSTAR]

Nice home, too bad they didn’t make any money on it. $160,000 Renovation $60,000 holding cost Just to gross $20,000 minus realtor fee’s & taxes. Bad deal…

[@breauxlee8421]

but for a first flip - this wasn't bad at all.

[@rangerlovee3324]

yeah i was thinking that kind of sucks, but in the end its better to make a beat up and ugly home livable and beautiful again for someone to enjoy. thankfully they didn't lose ton of money instead

[@Saluteorshoot2]

Doing all the numbers on paper is like a house of cards- it all comes falling down once you start to tear down those walls.. 20k profit while you’re out the country… is a huge W.. if they can get 4 more in a year that’s 100k. Passively. A Profit always beats a loss in my book lol..l

[@tomtesting99]

@@rangerlovee3324 lol

[@sulliwrites5226]

I mean, that's what I thought at first but when you think about the fact that they weren't even there, didn't do any of the renovation work, and just had $20k land in their pocket after a few months, that's not so bad, I guess.

[@rosehughes599]

Can't understand how adding an extra bedroom, powder room and indoor laundry only netted $20k profit!

[@tyrelirwin]

I agree. Likely some market downturn to blame. Bought high, sold low.

[@makaylanicoler]

If they hadn’t had the $14,000 wiring cost the proxy would’ve been higher. This house required a lot more than just cosmetic fixes :(

[@Traci_Websinger]

​@@tyrelirwinyeah, I find it really hard to believe it cost 355k.

[@Jugio-pe3cq]

Cost of materials and labor.

[@JezebelleAzul]

Is this a ritzy area? Seems like a lot to pay for a rundown 2 bed 2 bath. Can't squeeze out a profit if you overpay to begin with.

[@MarcPhillips817]

"If these wall could talk they would need therapy" made me laugh out loud.

[@abbylx]

Investing 580,000 just to earn 20,000 is a bit painful. That to me is too risky. Finding the extra space was lucky, if not they would have lost money on this one. Also, imagine that the home inspection did not catch the rat chewed electrical. Wow!

[@mthorpe5673]

I agree with Lincoln, this is one of the best renovations you've done. Everything fits together perfectly and the decor is so nice. Love this house! GREAT job!!

[@AustinFlipsters]

Thank you!

[@EqualsThreeable]

I think they overpaid for the house, obviously the rat eaten wire rewire ate into the profit, also the holding and financing cost seemed high.

[@ChanProB]

I agree, and the profit was quite low after selling the house

[@grayonthewater]

Y’all did great BUT next time please put a door on the bathroom 🤦🏽‍♀️ the moisture from taking a shower is now going straight to your clothes with no barrier. Plus now you can’t access the closet if someone is on the toilet.

[@thekirksiffs5285]

My thought exactly! If I were to live in that house, that would have to be done before I could move in, especially since there is only a barn door on the closet. Barn doors are not very private.

[@Tiredgigi]

I finally found a flipped house that has the same issues as our current home, now ik what I want to do with our home and show this to my husband definitely opened up his eyes to what I wanted to do. 🤩 love how this house came out! ❤❤❤

[@txborn668]

I think this is my favorite too. I just can't understand why the original layout had that HUGE unused space. The only thing I would have done differently is make a knee wall in the place where the second bedroom was so it would be open to the stairs and living room. It would make the little room feel even bigger.

[@AustinFlipsters]

We planned to do that originally and you can see it in our 3D rendering. But unfortunately that wall is structural so we couldn’t take it to half height.

[@MollyMA13]

For the wasted bedroom space.. The only thing I can imagine is that the builders ran out of money?? It seems like such a loss! Amazing outcome in the reno though!

[@GamaunVideo]

A high ceiling is a blessing! Nothing weighs on your head, nothing suppresses you, this is air and freedom!

[@bigd7386]

I think it would have been worth reconfiguring the kitchen so that the entrance was coming from the living room, it’s just seems weird to have walk towards the front door to go into the kitchen. But besides that… WOW! From exterior to interior, this one is pretty amazing! So many windows and great light! Moving legos to make that powder room appear out of nowhere and then for everything to flow so well around it is mind blowing! And the extra space upstairs 🤦🏾‍♂️… like how does that happen? Best find in house flipping history! Lol. Thought the profit would be more, but I guess it’s better than no profit at all.

[@rosehughes599]

The great thing about this house is that ANYTHING, even complete demolition, would be an improvement

[@AustinFlipsters]

We considered that

[@innavecherkina8631]

In the beginning I wasn’t sure how y’all where gonna upgrade this house! But you definitely made this house pop. This house is my favorite renovation you have done 🎉

[@AustinFlipsters]

Thank you!

Ryan's Shed Plans is awesome, because it makes shed building fun and easy. You can have your own shed in no time. cool

[@TheQuestionIsWhy]

TBH this is one of the best renovations i've seen u've been doing on your channel

[@AustinFlipsters]

🙏🏼

[@eravau]

That powder room is one of the best things I've seen from you guys. All of this one looks nice though!

[@dustinkoop]

Fantastic work on the property, definetly the best renovation yet. Also id like to mention that the production for this episode was excellent.

[@AustinFlipsters]

Thank you!

[@TheAfezio]

With you, HATE all kinds of flooring mixed together! Those are TV holders like you used to see in sports bars in the 80's. Place looks great as always!

[@AustinFlipsters]

♥️♥️♥️

[@kara5958]

Really great job guys, love everything. The only thing I don’t care for is the pop up outlets on counter. We did this six years ago and I hated them so much, they would stop working and we had to replace them twice. I also realized I hated seeing cords all over my counters. I redid my slabs and removed them. I changed it out to hidden outlet strip underneath island where barstools are.

[@AustinFlipsters]

Oooh. Interesting

[@carlychevalier6526]

Agreed. Not a fan of this.

[@jennylhenry78]

19:37 the door should open the other way to block the toilet. Or the toilet and sink should have been swapped. You always want the door to be a block to the person on the toilet if they ever get walked in on.

[@marquiswillis5569]

This is the second flip they have done where I think they bought to high and netted too low 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

[@vivitv6425]

This is one of my favourite flip. I'm still so confused by the wasted bedroom space upstairs like who would do that lol 😂

[@user-jl7eb5wm2p]

Wow! What a transformation! From discovering an extra bedroom to the complete makeover, the renovation journey was fascinating. The before-and-after shots showcased the hard work and creativity that went into turning a house into a dream home.

[@BreannaMae]

OMG the light switch cover you show at 2:10 in the video is identical to the light switch covers we had in the Victorian I grew up in! Wow that really unlocked some memories!

[@SallyDavis-wm3fg]

This video is like a rollercoaster of home transformation - from outdated to absolutely stunning! The way they discovered an extra bedroom is mind-blowing, and it's super exciting to see the entire journey unfold. It's not just a flip; it's a dose of home improvement inspiration that keeps you hooked from start to finish!

[@denvernow7294]

All of that work for only 20k? Lol that's a joke.

[@stefawn4042]

Not all renovations will earn you big profits. 20k is still decent.

[@denvernow7294]

@@stefawn4042 no, it's not. Your capital is wrapped up in the project and could be better leveraged elsewhere for that length of time. 20k is 20k but you'd make more putting that capital in another project for the same amount of time.

[@PeterAlfonso]

Without that extra space they found they would have lost like 80k, yikes.

[@denvernow7294]

[@kellibuck]

That flex space with bedroom would be great for an in law suite type situation!

[@thebabscat]

A ground floor shower with a huge window in it. Nope.

[@nicklesueur1893]

Love the videos, progress and both of your energy! Keep it up!!!

[@SmileCentral]

Well done. I like most of the changes, but I wouldn't have put the cooktop on the counter between the LR and the Kitchen - that makes it feel like a hibachi grill. The big window in the kitchen caused could have neen a bank of windows there instead, above a counter, with the sink and dishwasher there. I would move the stove on the side of the kitchen where the sink was. That way the counter between the K and LR could be a buffet or eating bar. Love the new powder room, and primary bathroom, and the upstairs, kids will love the family room space between the bedroms to play. Or, the new one bedroom could have been bigger, insead of the big bonus space. It could have been a larger hallway, with built in linen storage. Brainstorming options 😁

[@elizabethadams5818]

Totally agree about the kitchen. The big window wall was devoid of cabinets and countertop. Not enough cabinetry in that kitchen for me. So glad they bumped the ceiling up and widened the opening to the LR!

[@thekirksiffs5285]

Yes! I am aways so disappointed to see a lovely island or peninsula surface interrupted by a cooktop or a sink. Also, if the range hood is on an outside wall, it can vent directly to the outdoors.

[@Sitiazwa]

The house turned out bea-u-ti-ful!! Love the blue and gold theme going on. Glad they added the powder room and found the extra room, only if they gained more profit from it. That being said my eyes cant go pass the middle tile at the fireplace being slightly smaller then the side ones and the penny tiles in the master bath not being perfectly aligned... huhh i am sorry (Anyone else saw it too?)

[@Amanda-jd8xs]

Thankyou thankyou thankyou for saying 'orient' ourselves not orientate! Bless your grammatically correct heart ❤

[@amymontondo8127]

Love the renovation. The wallpaper was a nice touch. I like the fireplace, too. Shocked there wasn't more profit on this.

[@Level10Crossfit]

Really fun renovation. What great luck on that hidden space, but moving the plumbing and still not adding a second shower head is rough!

[@MariahWyattBraxton]

This is my favorite renovation you all have done so far!!!

[@nightbender9250]

Ta;; shelves & corner ledge was probably for cats. It would be a super highway so the cats could travel the room without touching the floor.

This house looks great, I think it's one of the best as well. Great job!

[@MamaBear-mg1ux]

Gorgeous! Good job!!!

[@teresacoffman5529]

I think the reason the wall in the great room was padded was for sound dampening. As you noted, the room felt cavernous. Large rooms tend to echo. This is why I have hung quilts to decorate some walls in our current home. They absorb sound.

[@lomiju]

Great job guys 😊 This is my fav reno from you guys, I love it ❤

[@zoeashcroft3898]

[@NatashkaEmbroidery]

It's an amazing job of how you could change this place for the best!❤ But I have some questions to the original plan-maker! The ceiling is to high,to create the second floor could be the perfect match with a big family room and 3 bedrooms upstairs. Anyway you created a very nice variant, but the profit is low for all that efforts.

[@Whimsey6]

I think this one is my favorite!

[@thriftedbygrace910]

[@christinapeterman1898]

This was a great remodel!

[@clairecowart1052]

Amazing job ! What challenge!

[@Jules1280]

Suggestion: The shared bathroom upstairs you could have gone with a floating cabinet which would have given the room the illusion of being bigger and roomier. Was there a linen closet upstairs? Where are they going to put all their linen? Couldn't you have taken some space from somewhere to expand that upstairs bath a little and include some storage? For such a large home it really lacked storage. Cheers!

[@user-gd1nl5ez8i]

Great house flip! I believe is important for the people to also keep in mind that the numbers, are more complex. There certainly was a deal between Susan and Rob(their partners) and Austin Flipsters. Great Video!

[@curtiswall9245]

$20,000 profit? Like what? That didnt look like it included closing costs. So they lost money on this one? WOW

[@Stressless2023]

Unless they passed the closing costs on to the buyer - Which at that low of a net profit I damn sure would have. But then again I wouldn't have paid 350 large for this dump in the first place with a predicted $200k+ for the reno/holding costs and top comps only in the high 5's.
