Reality! It’s what works in todays market folks. I think this property is an amazing find! It’s like walking through a thrift store and discovering a gem. You, Molly and Barry bring craftsmanship into the process and Elizebeth brings accounting skills into the business. We get to sit home and enjoy the progress (this is the only way to enjoy remodeling!). ONWARD.

[@clionamm]

The front garden looks so much better with the old Cedar gone. You make it look so easy to move doors. I guess it is for you! Enjoying seeing the whole process.

[@crazycritterlady8788]

It's amazing how weird they did things back then. I agree with some other comments that you make moving those interior doors look so easy! Can't wait to see what you tackle next.

[@Grace2Hope]

This is so fun to watch! I am amazed that so much lumber was used for the many steps down on such a narrow deck. They could have had just one set of steps and a much bigger deck…exactly what you are replacing it with! I would buy this house on that beautiful land in a heartbeat!

[@rainsofhealing]

Exactly! So odd that it’s very narrow, can’t really have a table or grill and not conducive to actual outdoor usage. You can line guests up down the deck line a runway but that’s about it. Very strange.

[@KM00Youtube]

Quite satisfying watching a person work and actually know what they are doing. It looks so easy and we know it is hard work. Blessed you all are! 🙏🥰

[@MKCarol-ms7lg]

Nice to see Carlie is involvved in the project; didn't see her at Empty Hammock. A better deck will no doubt add value and living enjoyment to the home. I like the improved kitchen layout.

[@rainsofhealing]

She’s lovely was nice to see her indulging her grandpa with being on film taking staples out. Was that Bruce I saw out back with Barry and Bill?

[@Marthacraftsandmore]

It’s such a beautiful property, I’m sure it’s going to be absolutely amazing when you’re done and you will have a great profit for your hard work.

[@craftingwithapurpose6479]

I’ve had some loose tiles in my bathroom for 4 years. When my son was here today it came up in conversation and he said “show me”. Within the hour he had fixed the problem. When you know HOW to do something it makes all the difference. It is so much fun watching you create magic! Thanks for the videos.

[@spoly8139]

I wouldn't have the patience to tackle so many projects inside that house. By the time you're finished with it you'll be ready to soak in your hot tub that is on your to do list for your own home! Luckily you have the family team all pitching in!

[@leannecatlow6855]

Hey Bill, instead of using treated wood for the deck, get DECK ALL. What we did with ours, I painted 2 coats on all sides and the ends of the boards. It comes in many colors. Our deck is going on 3 years now! Will probably put on another coat just on the exposed boards next year. Water runs off and it also acts like nonskid. It only came to $195 total! Our landlord was really pleased! He quoted anywhere from $250 to $400 to have it done professionally. We did it for him ourselves! And he reimbursed us.

[@littlehousehappyhome1504]

Hello all! This is so exciting to be able to follow along with your flip project. Thanks so much for taking us along! Bill, I totally understand your thoughts on the deck and other project suggestions. The thing people don’t understand is….this is a business investment. NOT a long term HOME investment. People don’t seem to understand the concept of ROI. When you enter into a project like this, you absolutely have to check your emotions at the door. When you walk into that house and start planing out the renovation, you can’t put personal taste into the planning. Honestly, if I was a buyer, I might not want YOUR personal taste in my home…. I would want to add my own personal touches. Anyway, y’all are doing a fantastic job! I’m really enjoying this. It has to absolutely clear to everyone, that y’all know what your doing! Thank you for taking us along! Blessing to y’all. ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

Exactly. Well said!

[@ellenyoung9999]

I can't wait to see the project finished...I'm sure it will be a HUGE improvement...I'm so glad that my Renovations projects are behind me and now when I need or want something done I just hire someone to do it for me Thank God...I can barely manage a gardening project now and will be hiring someone to help me with that in the next week or so 😂 unfortunately I'm not as fortunate as Elizabeth to have a handy husband around ! French doors would be beautiful if your budget allows it...I always find glass sliding doors so heavy and not appealing...just my own personal thoughts !

[@conniethomas7278]

I'm 80 years old but I'm sure enjoying watching you work on this house.

[@loishurray3866]

Watching Barry’s site and yours together shows what an amazing family you are! God bless your endeavor.

[@arielathome23]

It so fun to see the differences and consistency between you and empty hammock. It's a heartwarming feeling seeing multigenerational work again!

[@liza_lou]

Wow, I love seeing all the old damage and mess removed, the updates sound great, it's going to be amazing!

[@deborahwhite2339]

It's incredible how things change throughout the decades. In the 70's in Canada they took to wiring homes with aluminum wire. To attach copper wires required a special paste and marettes. I had a 1972 home in Montreal with aluminum. It was a pain. This Reno is captivating me. I'm learning quite a bit.🙂👍👍👍

[@wendyburston3132]

The dog wood tree looks so good, what a lovely approach to the house.

[@FiresideCoffee]

You are the interior door moving expert lately lol. Loving this series Bill. Thanks for sharing. God Bless.

[@mariannereno8501]

I can't believe how fast you get all that done! This is going to be a really nice house, 👌

[@sharonrhoads2461]

Bill, my knees hurt every time I see you kneel down on those hard wood floors. Ouch. Barry, get your dad some knee pads. LOL. Love the sound of that hammer in super speed.

[@maryloushaw6858]

That is such a beautiful piece of property...and I know you guys will do a wonderful job

[@CVenza]

You sure work with confidence Bill🔨. It was also good to see your granddaughter. What sweet kid and so hard working 🐞. Looking forward to seeing more. 🐝

[@Sally-nse2]

I can tell that house is going to be great and have some good bones again, when you and Barry have finished with it. 👍

[@rainsofhealing]

Always a pleasure to see 3 generations of a Godly loving family working together with one another. Does the heart good in these trying times to see something so wonderful and wholesome. God bless you all!!!

[@ljjackson7106]

...."oh we'll probably have to jack the house up a bit to fix that"....."need to move that door over there"....."there was a big cedar tree here"....."removed all that decking"... Bill, can I tell you how many times my hair'd be on fire with all of these projects YET, you make it simple, educational and FUN!! Can't wait to see more!

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

Yeah, well... I've done it before... for about 30 years! 😎

[@Bear-Ur2ez]

I have really enjoyed watching. As usual thank you for bringing me along .

[@candacekesting1786]

Your grand daughter is adorable ! She resembles grandma . Fun watching the redo .

[@rickjobs638]

just had to say Joy in the morning with you guys was on my playlist by google. Congrats

[@kathyhill9078]

Getting to watch both channels is fabulous! Great content. Sure wish I could move a few doorways in my 1970-built house.

[@krystlethelightbeing2539]

Love your channel! I think you and your wife are fantastic people. I even watch your son now too. Sending my love to all❤️

[@angelagodfrey7516]

You make everything look so easy Bill, great job!

[@cindyenglert.az51]

Bill you make it look so easy!!

[@Randy8923]

Great progress Bill ! Enjoyed.

[@joanharris8057]

I like the size of the new deck. It will be very functional and look nice. It is interesting watching the whole process of planning, demo and building.

[@Bob-ru9qx]

I'm so glad you said those cabinets were no good because it broke my heart watching them come down. I'm so happy you're leaving the sliding glass I really believe that adds a lot of value to the kitchen and I think it's just a wow factor. Someone could even put in an above ground pool off the deck I imagine. I'm glad you moved the garage door so you have so much more room in one area for the kitchen I think it's a good design.

[@jennifervalentine7519]

Gosh Bill, you make it look so easy, but then again, you know what you’re doing! I get so involved watching and before I know it, it’s over, lol! Thanks Bill, now I’m going over to your sons channel! This home is going to be Great! Thanks

[@rustykatt3870]

I have subscribed to Barry's channel because of your suggestion 😊. Yes, it gives a more full understanding!

[@maggiesue4825]

You make it look so easy! Can't wait to see the changes in the future!!

[@suegeedee2511]

I totally agree with your decision to keep the hardwood floors to the living area. Personally I prefer cosy carpets in the bedrooms. I’m sure buyers will accept the compromise. Good luck with your project from 🇦🇺

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

If it was up to me, I’d put carpet through the entire house. I hate hardwood! But I got outvoted on that one. LOL

[@pennynickels5216]

@@LiveSimpleLiveFree but bill, I have terrible allergies and can't have rugs?

[@withfootnotes]

Every time I see Carly in your videos, I smile. I just LOVE her and that gorgeous dimpled smile! She's a beauty with humor and intelligence and a kindness that shows through. I love that she is learning from her parents and grandparents and will be so skilled in life. She has a great future ahead of her. I think I have said this before, but she reminds me of my 19 year old daughter (who is amazingly talented in art, but doesn't give herself enough credit). Aside from that, another great video as usual. Thanks! :-)

[@sherryo360]

I LOVE that yard! So peaceful. So quite.

[@patriciaherman6499]

Don't know anything about remodeling, so it's fascinating to me how it's done. Hi to Elizabeth. Be Blessed. 😊🇺🇲

[@stacyhackney6100]

Very interesting, thank you for demonstrating how to create a doorway and how to deal them up. I like your home design evolution.

[@DianaCarolinaGirl22]

You are working really hard and I hope you make lots of money off that house!

[@jeanettewindmon8993]

Hello there family of God. Everything is coming together nicely. Great 👍 Can't wait to see the complete work on this beautiful home. Blessings and 💕😀😻

Yes watching both Channels

[@rebeccaramirez-]

excellent point about ROI...materials are right now expensive...

[@kennethblack3485]

wonderful bill take care and ease up a bit ken from kent england

[@susanpendell4215]

I did see the first video of this house where you said that both families were buying or had bought this house as a project and the video that showed the 3 garages from outside. I'm thinking that this house would be great for someone who wanted to have a business out of the house as a mechanic shop or maybe anything that requires three garages, then live in the house and have the office there too. but that's how i'm seeing this house. Sunny yellow sells best from what i've read, but whether you paint or vinyl side is your choice. I have lived in both and right now we have vinyl siding and it has to be washed every few years with a power washer. I'm thinking that paint is preferable, but that's me. I love that you took that ancient tree down and are going to put in a more modern, practical and usable deck too. Since there are dogwood, Im thinking that you could put in a couple of Rhodadendron bushes on either side of the hedge for color in spring, just a though.

[@jan6293]

Bill, awesome job!👍

[@ouvickie]

Great idea moving that door in the kitchen. That’s a great house. If it were my kitchen, I’d want a breakfast bar running from the wall - where that door to the garage was before, that parallels where the length of the patio door is located. I say that for 2 reasons. It can do double duty as a breakfast bar/buffet and a way for a prep cook/barbecue cook to set food going in and out to the deck for grilling. Maybe even put the sink in an area, on the wall, or at the end of the bar close to the wall, that makes it easy to clean up dishes from the breakfast bar/buffet. I hope that makes sense. This is just coming from someone, who does a lot of family meals and I like my sink, dishwasher, bar area and eating utensils around the same area, for convenience sake. Loving these videos. You all do a great job remodeling❣️

[@JC62888]

I enjoy your videos

[@susanpendell4215]

Looking good! I like the moving of the door. I don't like walk in closets into the restrooms, humidity is a problem and then privacy for anyone in the restroom should someone else want to use the closet. First of these new ones that i have watched so far. I see no real reason to comment otherwise as Bill IS a professional, I am not. I only have living in a house experience, not building experience.

[@juliebarnett9812]

I have flipped 3 houses and I totally understand your ROI stance. I suppose many people don't really understand the concept of flipping a house.

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

Yup. Harry Homeowner (not a derogatory name) doesn't understand renovation as a business, rather than renovation to create your own dream home.

[@donnasmith5697]

I so enjoy watching you work! You are so skillful!

[@mlm7598]

Love watching you guys remodel and build. Love to see the tricks of the trade! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and trade! Blessings

[@kscheuerman5378]

Thanks Bill, for giving me enjoyable entertainment! Now going to Empty Hammock to see more!!

[@Boomhauer69]

See this rehabs house . Makes me wish I had the money/ carpenter skills or aleast funds to fix up the church I'm part of its 100 year old church in need of repairs. I did video about it on my channel. I been definitely enjoying the videos and also your son videos as well. I just few days ago subscribe to his channel so I can catch the full story on this house you both are rehabbing. Definitely enjoyed your channel. One thing I like about you and Elizabeth is you both are followers of Christ . Well wish good luck on fixing it up hope ya don't run into to many problems that older home tend to give. Will definitely keep all in prayers.

[@TI14928]

Bill you have a nice funky beat hahahah 😆 🤣 😂

[@terrell48]

Good luck on the success of your project, the real estate market is very strong where I live hopefully where you are too, the property is very nice where this house is you’ll are overhauling, best wishes

Such interesting work. Fun to see what you have going on. Thanks for sharing. Becky from Kansas City

[@JanesDough855]

You're making the inside of the house looks a lot bigger than before. That was a pretty huge deck. You're right about you do not find out about anything until you start tearing out. I've learned that lesson!

[@pamhutzell8268]

It will look so nice we you's are done!

[@pennynickels5216]

It's gonna be great!

Those changes sound and look great. I'm learning so much with both yours and Barry's videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@bethanyfields4706]

I love it! Thank you for the updates. Be blessed.🧡

[@upnorth818]

Such a beautiful piece of property. Plenty of room for a tiny house guest cottage? So much fun watching all your progress on the house. Most of the renovations don't seem overly complicated but what caught my attention most was your comment about jacking up the house to replace some rotting wood. Sounds major. Look forward to seeing how that is done. Thanks for taking us along on your "big adventure".

Welcome! 😀

[@cheryljohnson206]

Love watching your projects!

[@ef5842]

I think a change of colors to softer tones is appreciating to ROI yet it will not cost more than paint. Using durable, cost affective paint will show off a quality looking painted surface that looks new will sell the house faster. Maybe the outside, if done in paint vs. vinyl siding could be durable, and the inside, more economical. If there's some room to indent that door from the kitchen into the garage by two feet would look nicer than it places on a flat kitchen wall.

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

Everything, inside and out, will be painted much lighter colors than the old dark paneling that was there before. The garage door cannot be pushed out into the garage without interfering with the first parking bay.

[@denisemacdonald2062]

The new door from the kitchen to garage is a great placement. It will allow for much better flow!

[@TheThriftyGma]

It's crazy what wood is costing now. Hubby bought 8 - 8 ft garden ties, and those were a grand price of $124.24 Canadian! Then he needed 2x6x12 treated boards to replace the back steps, and for 2 of them he paid $51.00!. Anything being built with wood is costing a whole lot more now. That deck on the reno house was overkill, with all those steps and up down to different levels. Love the new size that you will be building. Thanks for sharing.. I'm really enjoying watching both channels.

[@virginiatolles1664]

Fascinating! I wanted to move a doorway to provide space for a linen closet in my hall bathroom. The builder said it would be cost-prohibitive. Now, I see why. Electrical issues would have been involved, and, as you said, the code is "radically different" now than it was in 1968, when my house was built. Alas! By the way, Barry, I like your "better crowbar."

[@anthonyman8008]

Awesome, was just looking at a house that needs the garage door moved

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

That’s a lot more difficult because it’s so wide. It needs a major beam above it.
