I love that they chose a real fixer upper and didn't just go for an easy flip

[@christinestephenson1742]

I don't know what these flippers would do without black and white and grays. That is their whole color pallet on every video of theirs I've watched!

[@rosehughes599]

I'm a little concerned that the only people to come out of this project financially better off are the original vendors who pocketed $370k. $32k is a slim profit in a volatile market

[@Crazyarchfiend]

The market is bad right now. Interest rates are high so no one is buying

[@lekishalyles4721]

I agree.

[@Lucas-vd2gx]

Realtors and flippers MADE a lot of money in the recent years. It is only fair for things to balance out for a bit.

[@ThePoetInMyHeart]

I'm curious how the Homemade team gets paid. Is it a flat fee, percentage of profit, etc?

[@MissBellaMe]

I was wondering why no one else was commenting on this. If my calculations are correct, the couple only stands to profit a 5% return, right?

[@ConservativeVeteran]

When you did the initial walk-thru my thought was 'they way overpaid for this house....she ugly'. But what a transformation! Love one-level living with split bedroom plan....always a winner! Great job, as always! Y'all are saving Austin one house at a time!!!

[@eattherich9215]

The couple certainly overpaid and only made a modest profit.

[@ConservativeVeteran]

@@eattherich9215 True...but the keyword is 'profit'. Maybe they have learned what to do and not do for next time. They did turn a piece of garbage into something lovely.

[@user-iv6ty3cd5i]

We flip houses- so easy to design using all gray but it’s not so popular anymore. My husband is a realtor and we do all the work ourselves and I’m constantly researching design options. Also running same floor throughout makes your home look cohesive and larger. Paint trim same color as walls but in satin finish to make rooms look larger if they are small. I always try to stay neutral in my design choices to accommodate single male buyers however we are currently renovating a small farmhouse so I will be incorporating some minor modern farmhouse design. In this market 2 bedroom are just as popular as 3 bedroom so don’t always think you need to go 3 bedroom. Lots of buyers and low inventory means just about anything is selling.

[@mariansolo6309]

I love the transformation of this house. It has gone from creepy to welcome and wonderful. I hope it will be a win-win for everyone.

[@Nanugale]

Omg this house was the queen of diy herself!!! Amazing job guys as always. Love the accent wooden wall and the tile on the fireplace/kitchen! Very beautiful 😊

[@jaypeepe-l4z]

Lincoln! I can really see the hard work and dedication you've put into your fitness journey. You've achieved an impressive transformation, and it's very inspiring.

[@AustinFlipsters]

I appreciate that!

[@Crazyarchfiend]

The backsplash isn’t my cup of tea but I also kind of love it! People are tired of white subway tile, keep trying new designs!

[@bearandrabbit6826]

I drive past this house all the time and I just saw this door and shutters being painted! Pretty safe to say your crew did this! Yep! 😂😂😂

[@AB-nf3mw]

I love the look of terrazzo floors. I hope they become more mainstream in homes and not just in commercial spaces.

[@debby8428]

I LOVE the tile you picked out for the backsplash and fireplace. I would absolutely put it in my home!

[@Sam__05]

The after in this house looks stunning. Loved all the details like the grey trim and the wooden accent in the dinning room. UK subscriber, love the videos keep up with the great work

[@Sarah-xw2ff]

The house looked great afterward definitely. But I did wonder about structural integrity when I saw the initial condition. I'm sure they had a solid inspection first before going ahead with the reno.

[@user-iv6ty3cd5i]

Of they paid cash - no inspection needed

[@Jules1280]

It would be really nice if you could come back and add what the house sold for and how much the Homemade clients made. Even if it's in the description box.

[@fennecstrauss]

[@ginam.8378]

Huge improvement, of course. Glad you kept the vaulted ceiling in the bedroom and the curved wall, they have character. I think integrating the kitchen and dining and giving more separation to the living would be a better balance. Not having two eating areas would give an opportunity for a larger workspace in the kitchen -as it seems like it's been short changed. Terrazzo for the full bathroom floors wold have been so sharp and less busy. That fireplace mantle... why so high and the tile stops short.?

[@snacktime4873]

oh my gosh, the tile backsplash in the kitchen is so pretty but i would change this one thing: where the peninsula touches the wall, she should have just done the 4” quartz trim rather than that awkward tile section. A) it makes the kitchen look smaller and B) it makes the tile look so awkward and out of place. i work at a stone fabricator so i notice these kind of things lol

[@BrettMaverick]

So were the beams not real?

[@AustinFlipsters]

nope! The ceiling beams were DIY

[@alee9961]

Love all the work that goes into making it a beautiful home. But my favorite is all the comments you both do....made me laugh out loud. 😂

[@darrenchichester9777]

I wish you would do a walk thru “After” Reno before you show the staging. I don’t always like your design ideas so would be really great to see a blank slate. Great channel! Love it. Thanks!

[@AustinFlipsters]

That sounds like a great idea! Follow us on socials and we could do a walkthrough on our instagram stories in the future (@austinflipsters)

[@fennecstrauss]

Navy is SUPER flattering on Lauren 😍

[@RemoteBuilder]

Wow, I'm impressed by the transformation of every corner of your home, especially the kitchen cabinet colors and flooring tiles!

[@oldskola3634]

The way you incorporate subtle touches of what was going on before, like the penny tile, and wicker lamp/chandelier… so classy. Really shows respect to the previous owners. Clearly they did some questionable things, but that just gives them some dignity, and I respect that 🫡.

[@cherylmcwilliams7238]

Had to laugh at the first view of the house! I bought a house in SW Florida built in 1959 on a waterway, 3br/2ba for 120k. I bought it so low because people wouldn't go look at it, too scary. It had bugs and rats! There were rat boxes throughout the house. It was nasty!! It had chalk painted walls to write on just like the one in the video. LOL!! Once it was renovated, its great. That's why I enjoy watching your shows. Miracles can happen!!!!

[@heathersmith8549]

Looks beautiful. Great flow, considering how quirky this house was. I’m not a dining room person but I loved this one. I’d get a lot of use out of this room.

[@simoochka]

The siding was cedar shake and it can look really cool if done correctly and maintained.

[@lholder1104]

I think you can paint your appliances if you use the correct materials

[@elbow7991]

Nice job on this house! It was such a mess. It's an amazing transformation!

[@andreasalguero2155]

Looks great! I just wish the shower tile would’ve been run up all the way to the ceiling. It wouldn’t have required much more tile and would’ve drawn the eye up making the ceiling appear taller.

[@rosscastilla5321]

I'm literally laughing out loud while watching this. The faucet facing upward..I just can't!

[@reginaolson3671]

Where's the laundry room? Behind that curved wall? And how do you access the garage? Through the main bathroom?

[@AustinFlipsters]

Yes, the laundry room is behind the curved wall and there is a door to the garage through there as well

[@megenberg8]

imaginative and functional for a simple/sweet dwelling near the city. such a talent you people have!! a nice black awning out over the deck, the yard with a nice fountain and rock/desert garden scape w/ maybe an ornamental tree and everything artistically illuminated at night. lawn may not be possible, but cacti and crushed stone can be very attractive.

[@anna-mariajung9906]

Great flip! I love the tile around the fire place especially

[@hollyknapp2650]

You guys did amazing work I didn't care for the tile on the fire place or for the backsplash in the kitchen but the wood wall was beautiful I love simple the grays and white and black just make it feel so clean and high-end I can't what to be able to up grade my home but it's super old and I just know the wall I want to take down has those old small slats with crumbled concrete in between are gonna hard to do I just know all the wires will have to be all redone and the pipes will have to be all redone the outside new siding all new windows and new roof but so scared to start on the inside lol

[@rosehughes599]

The backsplash tile is definitely a Love it or Loathe it choice. Removing it would be my priority if I bought this house. It's always a safer bet to err on the side of caution with fixed elements.

[@yuukicross1079]

[@Freedomfred25]

[@ElvenGoddess86]

the house turned out beautiful. the only thing i would change is the tile choice in the bathrooms. Some houses back you used a sea green glass that would have tied well with the tile used on the kitchen and fireplace. The grey is still a nice look so that is mostly personal preference.

[@nightbender9250]

The only thing I don’t like is the white kitchen faucet but other than that I loved the entire house overall

[@shaindyhorowitz3783]

It amazes me that people don't think about the resale value WHATSOEVER when they make choices in their house. It's your home, but also most likely your largest asset!

[@MermaidmomUP]

@austinflipsters I'm in love with that kitchen tile, could you please share what it was? I did a reverse image search and came up with nothing and I need to see a sample in person!😍❤️

[@dannyharvill]

That is an amazing transformation!! It doesn't even look like the same house. I notice that you didn't add grass or do much landscaping. And I see most flippers don't do much in the way of landscaping. Do you find that it doesn't help sell the house or add value? I just purchased a 3 year old house that is a foreclosure on my street. The yard is dead and very neglected. They are still building new houses in my neighborhood. I'm trying to decide if I should spend some money to have it sodded, or just leave it as is. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Good on the Austin Flipsters for doing a great job as always, and at the end of the day buyers like this will save money using you even if they dont make money on the final project (I'm not at end of video yet so dunno how it goes). It was their job to buy a good project at the right price and they would be in a sinking boat without you. At least you're amazing captains :)

[@JayLupe]

What house design/plans software do you use?

[@corderajones]

I would’ve expand the kitchen into the dinning room to make the Kitchen a lot bigger. The home already has that breakfast nook, so I would’ve made a bench wrap around dinning table

[@corderajones]

Why not take the shower tile up a few more inches to reach the ceiling. What’s an extra $50-$100 to make the shower look more complete

[@Missionary117]

how is a house built in 1986 this trashed? makes me super skeptical about the plumbing or any residual water, or mold damage. second question, how are they able to sell with commission cost of only 26k? assume 2.5% for each seller and buyer agent, that alone is 30k.

[@yvonneodumah5153]

[@MJSinger10]

The ONLY time it’s ok to paint appliances is if they’re in (our case) a man cave/shop situation. We used APPLIANCE paint to paint a free white fridge black, but we did it right. We had to sand it down and take the doors and handles off. It looked good and no one ever knew it was painted.

[@torchbearerSN]

You guys need to give us some links to what yall put in these houses 😩

[@katiesims3075]

I hate stainless steel so much for kitchen appliances the spots and fingerprints really frustrate me. I love the new white café style appliances out now. I’m so curious how that white faucet holds during real life. I know black faucets get white water stains with real use so not super practical. I have white cabinets and they are so annoying they get dirty with kids same day I clean them. I love the look of white but the upkeep is so frustrating. I wonder if white appliances with colored cabinets would be more appealing.

[@GiancarloArriola3D]

Great episode but I'm kinda eager about the home with the pocket garden with the cactus where you guys are doing your comments. Is that another flip?
