In this video, we breakdown the actual costs for an abandoned building to dream home renovation. Get yourself a Mr. Cool mini split today: mrcooldiy.com/
In additional to the full detailed expense and cost breakdown for the renovation, we’re going to figure out how much I saved by DIYing the renovation - a full DIY savings breakdown.
Lastly, we’ll have a respected Chicago realtor come in to estimate a listing price for the abandoned building post-renovation, and we’ll find out if I made or lost money on the renovation.

How much did you make on KZbin so we can understand the full profit? 😅

[@modustrial]

KZbin is my job...I make videos for a living and each one takes 40-60 hours on top of the time spent doing the renovation...It is not a cost or a savings in the renovation. You're basically asking to see my tax returns... Don't get me wrong, I'm very grateful for everyone that watches, and the life that KZbin allows me to have, but there is a line to how much of my personal life I'm willing to share.

[@gzubeck3]

@@modustrial Instead of giving actual numbers can you just say that with You tube revenue plus your commercial sponsors was it worth it to you to do all this work yourself over 4 years. In other words do you feel better off selling your old place and renovating the new place and in a better place fiscally?

[@modustrial]

Thats not really how it should be looked at... I quit my job as an attorney to make KZbin videos full time, and the first part of my life as a KZbinr was spent documenting this renovation. Would I have made more as an attorney? Yes. But am I happier doing things I'm passionate about instead? 💯 Yes.

[@modustrial]

Ha, fair enough. Thank you!! And please do feel free to comment. I didn't mean to come off as angry... Your comment was not over the line whether joking or not.

​@@jpp7783 Plus he counted his own time as profit against hired help, but didn't value the opportunity cost of his own time working as a lawyer.​

[@chase.wilson]

For anyone who's calculating profit, you don't get to count your DIY savings as profit if you're calculating this as an investment. The reason being he could have been doing the exact same work over a period of time which would have generated the same income. So in this case you have to take that savings and amortize that over 4 years. Which means he was only paid $5.5k/mo (or $35/hr) to do the build. For example he even said charged $16k for similar doors; Odds are if he JUST did doors over 4 years, he'd have made double that per month after you amoritize the net. It obviously get's a little grey since these videos are his real job. So he's actually taking double salary: 1) Construction Labor ($35/hr) 2) Video Production (what ever he earns against the videos). And the two jobs depend on each other. We wouldn't watch these videos if he had hired contractors for all the finishings, and he wouldn't be doing the labor if he wasn't making these videos. This is easier to understand if you think of him making, say, video-production centric videos on youtube - which garnered similar views/earnings (a la Potato Jet). And if that was his primary job, but he decided to renovate this building on the side as spec-job/investment. He wouldn't have done the labor himself, and it would be a pure investment. So in terms of investment, he spent $951,000 and this property has an estimated value of $950,000. That's a $1000 loss. If he had invested the exact same amount of money in the S&P 500 in 2020, his net profit would be $958,789 If he had invested the exact same amount of money in the S&P 500 in 2023, his net profit would be $237,750 If he had invested just the initial principal (building acquisition) into the S&P 500 ($350,000), his net profit would be $354,975 So in pure investment terms, He's earned a substantial loss when you include conservative opportunity costs. There's other factors you can easily apply here as well. For instance he loves doing this kind of stuff. He's building a brand in tandum which is the actual investment. His video production earnings well out-earned that $958,000 profit. My only real question is why hasn't the property appreciated in-it-of-itself over 4 years? If he had simply bought a single-family-home and never even touched it, it would have appreciated over that time. Almost all property have moved up something like 5-6% YOY.

[@ConeMan1212]

Cast iron plumbing is a pretty common requirement in commercial buildings, but everywhere else in the US allows rubber "no-hub" fittings instead lead joints which makes the install about as fast as PVC. Chicago has a pilot program to allow them, but it hasn't been rolled out to the whole city yet unfortunately

[@modustrial]

That would be so nice!

[@royalt8ter976]

Des Moines Iowa has the cast iron but allows the rubber.

[@rafezetter8003]

Crazy thing is the lead "seals" don't allow for any expansion - whereas the rubber ones do, it's actually a less efficient, more problematic system to use lead.

[@glenziga7464]

Cast iron is required due to sewer rats. I watch a plumber in New York that mentioned this. The rats can easily chew through PVC so the major cities only use cast iron for this reason.

[@ConeMan1212]

@@glenziga7464 PVC is allowed underground, the problem with PVC is that it burns so it's not allowed where it could contribute to a fire in a commercial building. Being rat proof is just a bonus to being fireproof

The reason that cities like Chicago and NYC require copper and iron versus PVC and Pex is union pressure. The idea is to protect the plumbing industry from DIYers.

[@modustrial]

No one will say it out loud but it seems like that's what it is...

[@Ketoinvestor]

@@modustrialUnions vote. Union members also make more money on average than non- and that money generally goes back into the local communities where they live, increasing overall quality in their community and contributing (hopefully) to net increase in local population. Great cost breakdown video! Thanks

[@aaron4121]

Cities also have buildings that are well over a hundred years old. Copper and iron is known to last that long. The Jury’s still out on PVC/PEX.

[@furry_homunculus]

Then again, metal piping is more hard wearing. It also fits a character building aesthetically better than PVC tubes.

[@robin5mi]

@@modustrial I think it was Season 19 (~1998) of This Old House set in San Francisco that was already entirely explicit about the adherence to old plumbing methods being due to union pressure. In their case I believe it was about copper for everything, including drainage plumbing.
