Exploring the Upstairs and Other Unseen Parts of my Property After 7 Years

[@investfourmore]

Here is the first video of the property kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWfTZJyNbMxpbcksi=h5N6-L-cNrKS-Ou5

[@shelleyzaragoza2195]

1832 was the first invention of the cinder blocks. In 1832 were the first solid cinder blocks. The first hollow cinder blocks dates backs 1890.

[@investfourmore]

thank you

[@graybryan9521]

This could be the most valuable property yet if you market it by the number of murder rooms available all in one property.

[@investfourmore]

😂😂😂😂

[@raygunsforronnie847]

I'm getting a Sweeney Todd vibe. Upstairs barber, ground floor restaurant, basement "processing." Mark could name it "Worst Pies in Greeley." 🤣

[@kimthompson6029]

Omg ,I watch all your videos but this is my favorite one!! Every room was a mystery!! How very cool! Thanks for taking us along!!

[@davidbandler]

Smoke alarms chirp when the power is off too - wired alarms retain enough charge in a capacitor to alert you of the power failure. The hole in the basement could lead to a space under the sidewalk. Buildings built pre-1940s commonly had a room under the front sidewalk in many places across the USA.

[@janh5199]

The black thing you said was a bag that is on the table with the conveyor buckets looks like the inner tube for a large tire. The folding attic ladder needs the springs reattached to help with the lowering and lifting.

[@artieb997]

The moment phone entered the upper attic space, the sound glitched perfectly, just straight horror movie stuff😱

[@justinc.2656]

I have that Ladder. It's very convenient, but be careful when collapsing it back down. Forcing it to go faster can break it, Trust me

[@investfourmore]

thank you for the tip

[@philipwiseman9750]

The vise'es probably for furniture repair and under the stairs could be thermometer and humidity meter. In the front basement behind the furnace might be for a bathroom. Lots of room in that place for sure.

Old buildings are just so cool and interesting.

[@investfourmore]

yes!

[@byrn]

You might drop by your local historical society. They'll likely have old photos that might show your buildings, and it's always interesting to see what trades were prominent in the area. And research the steam pressure gauges in the basement, I'm betting it probably powered the original grain lift mechanism.

[@investfourmore]

I have, the Greeley Museum has many online photos and they look up other pictures for me

[@ralphadams4478]

Those 2 brass gages were probably for mositure air congent for feed storage

[@jaynecobb1]

No. They are gauges from a steam heating system.

[@investfourmore]

interesting

[@WalkingBlueKittens-nu5br]

It would be AMAZING if you filmed all your rehabs of your purchases, so we can watch that too ❤ Love your channel, love your commentary, love your down to earth personality. 👍👍

[@investfourmore]

My contractors do not like being filmed. I film progress but not the work

[@tomray3418]

Why not .good advertising for them.

[@investfourmore]

​@@tomray3418they don't need to advertise working for me

[@iamwinter7060]

Hi from Nevada, that building would make a decent auto shop . roll up doors would be a must have. I like it. Thanks for showing us.

[@investfourmore]

No real place to put the doors though

[@SegoMan]

Wood floors...

[@philipallard8026]

Routt County coal is some of best bituminous coal in Colorado. There is higher grade coal near Glen Wood Springs but I don’t think you can get from where you are to there on on the Moffet line.

[@investfourmore]

no idea

[@Vault57]

8:49 Looks like slate chalkboards. 11:00 For reloading shotgun shells, in the case of that box, 12 gauge shells.

[@rentechpad]

Wads are used in reloading shotgun shells. Not sure what the neighorhood is like but I can see huge potential for multi offices, apartments ir a very eclectic single residence holding onto the historical.

[@robwhite532]

Such a cool neat old building have enjoyed the last 2 explore videos you should do more if come across more properties what the plans for this place

[@investfourmore]

That's the plan!

[@ivydickson7596]

I would have trusted that staircase. Looks pretty solid to me.

[@starrylight8819]

This is bringing back memories of my childhood. I remember my dad driving into the grain elevators and I would get out and watch him open the back of the truck.seeing the grain pouring into an opening that I think sifted the grain from the chaft.i think I remember seeing those little bucket things in action going up a shaft in the wall. The smell of metal..grain..machinery and cigarettes lol

[@investfourmore]

nice! I am not sure cigarettes and grain dust are a good mix haah

[@starrylight8819]

@investfourmore lol! Probably not!

[@julieholien3681]

A few apartments in that building would be so great. Each one could have a basement for movie room or pool room, or just family room. The building has huge potential though. Not basenent apartments they are so depressing. Would be cool to see the roof too. Colorado lots of snow. Oh man would love to renovate that. So cool. Have a great day

[@beekind6267]

The crinkling of that wet floor paper was great! 😂😊

[@investfourmore]

lol

[@beekind6267]

@investfourmore I love ASMR 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 That's why I love counting the qtrs in the laundrymat 😄😄

[@BuckWagner]

If you can, sand the wood floors and keep them. It might add value to the property.

[@angiemoses130]

Man that would be a cool workshop to build furniture out of or even a grocery store

[@obryan240]

Those wads are for reloading shotgun shells

[@jaynecobb1]

17:06 "COLLECTORS ITEMS" ... "Duck Decoys" explains those old duck decoys in the basement from last video.

[@patriciaschiro2659]

Call me crazy but I would love to make this into the coolest house ever. It has so much potential with all the layers and nooks and crannies. Yes it would take a lot of work but it is so amazing.

[@investfourmore]

You would need to cut in quite a few windows into concrete as well

[@uncommon_niagara1581]

Those aren't ducks; they are Canada Goose.

[@investfourmore]

sorry you are correct

[@oleradiodudea.m.4735]

26:00 is a coal shovel. Grain Scoop would be much larger.

[@investfourmore]

That doesn't mean people always used what was the exact same tool

[@ronnettesapp2498]

Hello again, The scale has bronze gauges and the other one with pressure gauges looks like it’s also bronze. $$ in those two items both being of bronze and old.

[@teeg3275]

Man I used to work in Greeley for 2 years I drove right past this place everyday. Just like a lot of the old buildings around there

[@l3eaver]

Hip waders and deco ducks…. Tell the ol lady your going into work for the day and off you go fishing ! 🎣 old gauges behind the basement stairs is to read barometer and relative humidity

[@sarawoods7874]

I say turn it into a couple cool apartments

[@investfourmore]

That would take some money

[@NinjaTenK]

That scale might be worth something

[@kurtismckemmie4850]

I wonder if the owners of Russell's furniture are related to John and Perry Russell. They have 2 liquor stores in my area that are about a mile and a half apart from each store. The store around the corner from me opened somewhere in the 60's and it's their second store. Someone told me that there was another store that the brothers had but they were unsure if was owned by the brothers or the grandfather. I'll do some research on it.

[@investfourmore]

I think they are nto aroudn anymore

[@csky986]

Full tour of a lot of murder rooms😬😜😅

[@investfourmore]

:)

[@TomMaterene]

There was a time I would have said the building might be good for an auto parts store, however today there are thousands of dollar stores closing down and the footage of those stores are perfect for auto parts stores, so that would probably make it moot for a parts house. I would not have been able to cope with the accumulated dust.

[@ellanutellabella]

Thats a barometer with the slate and brass dials. You need to save that.

[@redneckbryon]

18:30, to me those look like either LVL's or Butcher Block Counter Tops. Both could be valuable.

[@investfourmore]

I didn't think of that

[@iamwinter7060]

Maybe use the basements for a shooting range. Big building. It has potential if you have the $$. The hard wood floors are interesting

[@investfourmore]

That is a pretty short range

[@l3eaver]

Hip waders and deco ducks…. Tell the ol lady your going into work for the day and off you go fishing ! 🎣

[@stanhunderwood3374]

Eastern Colorado, eh? Looks like a bunch of Dust Bowl from the 1930's still in that building.

[@LawrenceHanson-b9s]

I could see you pouring a couple hundred thousand dollars in that place just to seal up the outside for water coming in put the correct drainage drift covers in over those window frames replacing them

[@Selworld71]

Why did you leave that tall ladder outside? It just invites trouble and people getting up on the roof.

[@philipwiseman9750]

I think if you climb the latter that is there and push up the plywood it will move

[@investfourmore]

nope, in my second video you could see it was nailed down

[@raymondfletcher5668]

The chute looks like an old coal chute for heating.

[@IDK_Mr.M]

Looks like a building on the outside of a building in SalomeAZ

[@investfourmore]

A few additions for sure!

[@michaelfred8848]

I watched your video and I’m wondering if that property wouldn’t be more valuable if it were leveled 😊

[@investfourmore]

no

[@MrJBJ1162]

This is a great building wish it was closer ,I would have loved to clean it. A bit of elbow grease and a little sweat and it would be a gem .well except for the creepy basements...Judy

[@investfourmore]

A little creepy haah

[@shakes7333]

Thats a cotton scale.

[@makaye3259]

You are braver than I am, Mark😅

[@investfourmore]

or dumb....

[@makaye3259]

@ 😂 well I wasn’t gonna go there, j/k

[@jasonhowe1697]

city planning to see what the site was used for i 3ouldn't be srpised if it had rail heads at some stage

[@phillipmartin273]

Big inner tubes

[@DiMaggio82]

Webster heating

[@NinjaTenK]

23:24 that could be worth money to

[@matthiasjagdm3949]

3:52 thought he said cheese instead of keys

[@investfourmore]

haha

[@andrewbryan1036]

Cinder blocks was invented as early as 1900s

[@investfourmore]

cool

[@jaynecobb1]

5:02 That is where they washed their guns.

[@valeriehopkins644]

Wouldn't be a Mark Ferguson property if there wasn't a tire. I'm sure your lungs appreciate the mask.

[@mojac692000num1]

Sorry but you buy Real Estate and you dont know anything about a attic ladder SMH

[@defuller1]

So they sold it to you for $110k, then rented it back for 7 years? Didn't they wind giving you back pretty much the whole purchase price in rent back?

[@sarawoods7874]

What if you found a dead body under all that junk in the pit! That's the murder room!

[@investfourmore]

I dug it out some in the next video

[@patrickmccleary1144]

Well if he did he certainly wouldn't put it in the video he would edit that out and just dump it in some dumpster somewhere. No need in causing a big hoopla and taking a whole day off from work when it wasn't your fault!

[@Troysbuildsnlife]

the first of the two basments used to house a coal or corn fired boiler, that is what the shoot is for...

[@MzzRabbitt]

A butchers house?

[@michaelhartloff3833]

Wassup

[@investfourmore]

Was happy

[@tonisallese7173]

I’m sorry to say that the building is more of a liability than an asset.

[@investfourmore]

WHy?

[@sk31370n]

you sound like frog vader with the mask

[@investfourmore]

lol

[@WApnj]

Huge potential for a " Breaking Bad " meth lab.

[@jakeyt153]

Those gauges are probably worth a couple hundred, just saying.

[@investfourmore]

cool

[@ziprun2005]

Is your mentality with purchasing properties like this that you're getting them for less than market value? Doesn't sound like you're fix & flipping.

[@markspangler8573]

What a piece of junk building. Cost thousands to do anything with it.
