Those cobblestone wallls are ugly af 😂

[@bowser5678]

He could have gotten rid of the framing on the outmost walls so it’s all one material, would have looked a lot nicer that way.

[@shadowgamer5scorpio815]

The larger rocks would have been nicer

[@MelodicTurtleMetal]

The repeating pattern ruins it

[@mynameisntpatrick1476]

5:50 "you cant get better than that" *the homeowner bashing their head against the steps every time.*

[@mynameisntpatrick1476]

"I think Id like no railing" *Code enforcement:* 😮

[@mynameisntpatrick1476]

"Ok and so the house has a modern white with dark trim theme. Except the master bedroom which is dark and brooding."

The cobblestone walls lol

​@@muddinco7289high remarks are the best remarks... I gotta score some

[@Dominator_0211]

Good god, that kitchen tile cobblestone on the outside walls is definitely a choice. I was really hoping you would redo it but we’re 5 minutes in and I don’t have much hope left. Edit: oh god the yellow wall!

[@Thysillia]

Ngl a little disappointing that the irregular cobble has a clear grid pattern...

[@Pimp.My.Forklift]

I like this accent piece, let me use for the entire exterior of the house!

[@Soggy2002]

I honestly liked the cobblestone with the brick upper floor. The whole house as cobblestone didn't look great.

[@bowser5678]

@@Soggy2002A stone exterior looks phenomenal on a house if it doesn’t have framing breaking up the pallet.

[@AndreasMadsen]

Drea walks in the house "not going to need that" - tears down the weight bearing wall 😂

[@forehand101]

Everyone criticizing Drae's wall choices, but nobody is questioning that he added a child's playset and sandbox in the backyard of a single bedroom house? The same house that neglects a railing next to the stairwell and puts the shoe rack AT THE TOP of the stairs? Kids gonna drag mud all the way up those stairs, then slip and fall down them when taking them off. Then sleep on the couch or in the tub lol

[@riverpowell7114]

That’s what I thought with the one bedroom

[@Madison-iw8ix]

Maybe the playset is for the adult homeowner.

[@MultiBoomer77]

Drae remodeled the house into the 70's lol

[@Goose-it]

We need a house tour now, so we can judge whether you or your wife decorated the house 😂

[@WalrusWinking]

Women want to turn the whole house gray or beige as well. It's horrible.

[@shadows_star]

Is Drae married? I don't think I've ever heard him mention family.

[@Goose-it]

@@shadows_star he mentioned having a kid, I believe a year or two ago

[@user-kp3ji9pd3l]

Okay hear me out. if you are going to do an accent wall (the yellow one) typically you should opt for a darker color to compliment the white. When you have those two bright colors together it just makes a giant eyesore. One more thing is to have a bit less lights so it's not as blinding in the house, and the bathroom is a bit weird being a completely different enviornment than the rest of the house.

[@TMelt757]

Hahaha I love watching you have fun Drae, flip this house and keep the starter home; would love to see you upgrade that one!

[@thighlover708]

The color palette in the master bedroom is the thing i loved the most. the living room is somewhat acceptable. the cobblestone is the thing though, it doesn't look good if it was put on the whole house. Edit: it also look like a badly rendered png of cobble stone plastered on the house when viewed from afar.

[@spookyskeledook]

That cobble pattern was definitely A decision Edit: oh god, the yellow wall

[@MelodicTurtleMetal]

Lucky the bedroom has ∞ windows

[@pugloversboy]

The outside walls have grown on me by just how good the rest of the house is, but as long as he had fun an enjoys its great

[@jasontsang5481]

would be cool if the game had load bearing walls, so if you didn't check or do it right you could damage the house lol and 6:03 behind the door

[@retzle8738]

I feel like Drae was the interior designer for a 90s hospital

[@KiritoYakuza]

Watching Drae play games like this is always such a trip. Man is usually SO damn good at doing furniture and decorations, but good god is your sense of colors.... *something*. Dont get me wrong, I love your videos Drae. But please. The colors. My eyes are burning kind sir. On a for real note though, I fully standby the mind set of its your time playing it, you play it how you want. We gonna watch regardless. I hope you had a lovely Christmas, and a very happy New Years my kind sir. Cant wait for the next video.

[@gwallace5403]

Everything he did hurt to watch when it came to practicality but it's his house to bash his head on and his stairs to fall down!

[@HunterM387]

Everyone hating on Drae’s design but personally he did what he could and props to you man! Also yall keep in mind he’s partially color blind so what looks good to him might now look good to everyone else 😭

[@moldovanflorin5455]

there's no excuse to the cobblestone walls lmao

[@SylviaRustyFae]

​@@moldovanflorin5455 The excuse is he wants to live in a minecraft house

​@@SylviaRustyFae even dirt would look better at this point...

[@SylviaRustyFae]

@@randomguy2925 Eh, i dont rly think the same as mainstream on a lot of ideas of what looks good; id be makin things garish and gaudy if i were playin

[@megamanny4844]

At 13:20 those pillars on the windows can be painted or change their color. With either paint or the tile you want point at it and you’ll get the option to color it. It takes a second and it loads and then you’ll see it get applied.

[@Tarsnixx]

its always interesting to see everyones visions when flipping houses in this game. My build i removed the garage door and put up a wall. Double door entrance and made a bedroom and laundry room in the lower floor and in the upper front window tore out the wall and made a huge window with the living room and a computer desk bathroom and kitchen upstairs.

[@marcoarnaud3964]

Tbh, i like the interior of the house (the cobblestone kills me) and i think i would look good as the new base (it even has the logo on it)

[@2d20kobolds3]

That cobble stone was way too much lol.

[@wetmustache1]

Roof- On the outside of the top of the house. Ceiling- On the inside of the house above your head. Specifically this situation grinds into my anxiety. At no fault of Drae. Thank you.

[@SylviaRustyFae]

Its rly just the bottomside of a floor... As theres an attic above it, so is it rly a ceilin or is it a floor?

[@insidiousgaming2535]

The starter house is your parents house so you can NOT sell it. If you keep the upgraded house you will have to earn the money to flip another one. So it's up to you on what you wanna do.

[@functionatthejunction]

Finds a house with a unique look and personality and makes it a white and gray nightmare of blandness. This man is a true house flipper.

[@MelodicTurtleMetal]

Nice touch with the children's play area. Maybe the children should have a bed though? 1 bedroom 2 bathroom house. Good good

[@krystal8677]

you can press R to change to precise placement

[@TheJhonny5555]

There is obviously attic, because when you look from outside you can see small window above those 4 big windows in front, hopefully Drae spots that eventually.

[@SylviaRustyFae]

I wonder if theres trash up there pullin the house value down

[@planetjakebomb]

Yo, I wanna see Drae's house now 😂 Just look for the house with the most HOA complaints lol

[@NerdyHippy]

I think it would make a good permanent base for the rest of the series. And pretty up the first one for sale.

[@speen5592]

I came straight to the comments immediately after the cobblestone wall and I’m happy to say you guys did not disappoint me lmao

[@missingname5725]

Thanks for the video drae, the bedroom was great

[@achyscorpion2417]

In case anyone is wondering, Venitian Plaster is essentially drywall that has been sanded and polished to a baby smooth surface. Because it is super labor intensive and therefore expensive, it is likely only to be found in wealthy homes. There is no texture on venitian plaster.

[@__ZaidAli__]

Sell the house and flip some more houses as it's a better way of making more money and when you have enough to spare then choose a house and make it as your office

[@HeroAkii]

Drae is bout to get an intervention on his design choices.

[@theprestongoat.3726]

Thanks for vedio. I love it. Keep up the good work KZbin wouldn't be the same without you.

[@nobob8564]

There is but one path to follow, grasshopper Drae. You must turn this house into a mansion. Expand it. Add a 3rd floor. Add a balcony. Make it stick out in the neighborhood.

[@ncironhorse8367]

Cool design and we did the layout identical in the bedroom and laundry area. For the laundry area I removed the doors and wall between the two rooms and made it into a combo powder room/laundry area. I used the exact same placement for the washer/dryer and shelves. I also used the cobblestone but only for the front facade

[@FrostmanJack]

Keep it as your office 💯 You built it with your hearts desires and you need a base of operations for future projects

[@KingOfDeadMemes]

hey drea great video some weird but understandble design choices, i think it would be cool if you renovated the first house before mooving so you can decide on which you like better

[@jdkostiuk7722]

Keep the house it would be so cool!! Then you could renovate your old office for a profit

[@Skellyinmycloset]

Drae, keep the house as your office, after all these negative comments about it, you just gotta keep it. Make them look at your masterpiece through the whole series lmao

[@mattmav510]

Drae: “Hey guys ! Today we’re finally going to flip a home!” Me at the end: “Liar.” 😂

[@memegumin]

The comments are ABSOLUTELY ROASTING Drae lmao, and honestly y'all got a point.

[@swordgamers8344]

Ah yes, let's do the deed with 8 screen view for the neighbors and people on the street :P. You do you Drae still love the content anyway :D

[@nathansherwood3705]

Looks like there's an attic you haven't accessed with the window at the top of the house ?

[@brendensphotography]

Just to let you know, you cannot sell your starter house, it's your parents house lol you can remodel it but cannot resell it, if I were you, I'd sell that flipped house and remodel the parents house that way you can earn a lot more cash! Also, there's only 1 bidder to begin with, the more houses you sell, the better prices you can get 😉

[@mrmacc1312]

Awesome design well done!!

[@nitrovillain]

“Pamper room” first time I’m hearing that. Canadian saying maybe lol I’m used to “half bathroom”

[@jagergerg9771]

I like the decorating I think it came out nice

[@coltonwilhite8910]

Make it your office😂 I want to see it in every video!

[@Isildor]

Hey Drae! Awesome content as always. you can click the "i" in the box on the right side of the buy menu (below the different tabs). then items show their dimensions with width x height x depth. easy way to check if a bed is bigger than the rest :)

[@deadblade300]

Did you ever want to feel like you live in your own private single unit apartment complex? Well have I got the listing for you! This lovely cobblestone abode comes complete with playground in the non-existent back yard, for that community living atmosphere. The full two car garage clad in checkerboard is ready for any mechanic to set up thier unregistered out of home shop in. The tiny joined living/dining/kitchen, cramped bathroom and the tight for one, but built for two bedroom along with the boldly chosen decor has all the charm of a high end 70's era motel. If your interested in this wonderful property, please contact Drea Gast

[@Violaetor]

1:52 ... accent brick lines up left and right... and lets just leave that middle one off by 1.

[@ZombiePenguin1st]

Why would you not use the ground floor as kitchen/dining room instead? No need to have a huge garage, you could just park outside... lol

[@itzkitsu7317]

When Drae designs stuff I usually go in expecting to get angry at his design choices. The cobblestone wall was certainly one of *those* choices, but other than that, honestly looks pretty good. I feel like since he went the extra mile to place his logo over the desk it just makes sense for this to be his new office. P.S.: I'm pretty sure the shower is set up wrong and not assecible unless you're as thin as a toothpick

[@georgekatsaros8597]

Bro he mixed like 10 different colors (all of them were ugly af )

[@bluefroge]

Everyone’s so mean about the design 😭 I just love that it has personality and it isnt all white. and that you spent time decorating

[@FrostmanJack]

It is a beautiful house! Majority of the comments I have seen so far think their way is the only way, oblivious that their own opinions are also unique 😂

[@MiotaLee]

I'm not sure I've heard the term "eating table" before but I'm loving it 😂

[@proletariennenaturiste]

That house is lookin' good!

[@TheItachikiller]

the house you designed has a lot of personality, i say keep it i also really liked the colors of the master bedroom in it

[@Vrithik]

Everyday dinner routine: drae's video

[@Abdullah-yg6yj]

oh !! Drae is actually trying to do something nice 0_0" !! I'M SCEARED !!!!!!!

[@NorthernHick]

Sell the old house and use the money on the new house add a additional garage and make the lower floor the office and move it out the bedroom put a wardrobe in that corner but with the basement remove the garage door put a sitting area down there for your house flipping business and make the office where all the work is done that way you can keep work from home kinda how I have my set up it just feels better in real life to have your work out of your sleeping area

[@vegassims7]

Arn't you glad you don't have to bother with pesky before and after's, so see how much change you made??? Whew, so happy about that change!

[@mtprince2019]

Done this type of work irl and I wish it went this well every time

[@DucktheBuck5800]

I think you should've kept the exterior wood on the top floor how it was, instead of changing it to stone, the bottom floor looks good but with both floors I think it it just overwhelming.

[@Lazarus-aap]

I like tne colours in the bedroom.

[@andrewnephew3932]

Bro i love it and definitely think you should make it your office.

[@rdrangergaming]

Move into the new one. You have a ton of yard to put additions in the future!!!

[@TheHenrymontemayor]

If you are interested, there is a secret room above the top floor ceiling, if you’re interested 😉😉😉

[@TheCalicoKittyGuy]

I do think he should make this house his office, bc I mean for 1 he has the pic above the monitor showing his logo and all, plus with him not wanting to let it go & it being his first flip, if you put all in all together it being his new office (compared to his current flipper office) it would be a good idea

[@chaoslordlordofchaos]

I'd love to see small house sold and make the bigger house the office. Could do it as a gradual project: do a section/room at the end of each episode, after earning money as the main part of the episode; something like that.

[@seizeps]

I like the Design 😊

[@ArgonianKronos]

So many bot comments xD but hey they still want to Support our boy drae

[@raelsadd6378]

ten seconds in, i'm like, "wow, thats a cool looking railing to stop you from falling down the stairs" and the first thing this guy does is call it ugly and then he destroys it

[@memegumin]

We need DearModern to absolutely froth at the mouth while watching this video lmao

[@greymatter1999]

Please change the outside of the house, and maybe add some more garage items like tools & that type of stuff if you can buy that stuff, And yes, I'd say make this your HQ. At least, I would

[@johnhoover8507]

Make it your Office you will make more money on the big old house

[@Wirdoboy]

i think it would be nice if you keeped this house as your office, and then in the next episode renovated the starter house and sold that off, to see if you be able to get a good profit out of that.. goiod video though.. :D

[@Lolindir_Fox]

if you would have sold it you would have gotten a selling skill point to where you can get more than 1 offer

[@jort93z]

the cobblestone on the outside looks terrible imo, but i like the bedroom. Personally, I'd just make it my office and sell the old office.

[@CloudKicker78]

Keep it for an office and sell the other Happy holidays

[@MorrisTheCreator]

Beachfront property as a office, less stress

[@sumireravenclaw8034]

You only get more offers once you unlock them through the skill tree. and ofc you can sell it. you can just rebuy it again and resell it again over and over,.

[@lightphoenix0119]

The decorated house looks more businessy lol and the one not done looks like a " family home" style

[@josiahteeples2000]

That yellow wall is such a horrible eye sore 😂😂😂

[@devny1]

You should build a house, buy a lot, demo the whole house and make that one your office

[@TheAmazingDrCheat]

I think the house came out great love the little half bath in the garage. It looks so cozy and cute especially the bedroom. also I think u should sell it make some money you might find something better.

[@zeroknight1311]

Make this house be your office and rennovate the one you start in. As that one can be sold for a profit. But rennovate and seel after you have like 200K from doing jobs. Of course, if you furnish the place or not is up to you. After all, people who move into a new house usually bring their own stuff.

[@lostnight4466]

Have your office in the new house and try to sell the first house but you must make it look cool

[@christinaedwards7072]

I'm having the same issue right now as you!! I'm so torn on selling my place. I miss the clients system, in this one I have no idea the potential, the requirements, no nothing on selling the houses. The big job pay out like 25k for, i dunno, like half an hour of work? I could be way off but I hate the idea of selling a like 5 hour house and making so little back. I do think that its more fun than doing quests, so I'm trying to think of it as like a more fun shortcut to the 200k you would've ended up with at the end? I dunno. I wanna say sell the house, you've got video of the house and I wanna know the post-selling experience. I wonder if they have a house archive finally or if theres more to it when you commit to the number.

[@Beaira]

Make it your office. Plus I like the design

[@Ghostly_Knight]

personally right off the back i have decided to make it my home office during my play through. maybe level up the skills more so you get more offers if you are going to sell it.

[@swardinc]

not sure Drae i would least find out how the auction system works it makes no sense for just one person to bid? Not sure which house i like better although i do wonder why none have a front fence that bothers me.

[@austinmckenzie5500]

Its a nice house but it will be freezing because there are no radiators

[@USFirst1776]

Can you tear down an entire house and build one from scratch? I'm assuming you can.... that'd be kind of cool to see him design and build one haha

[@Texasred63]

I think that is Sandbox mode.

[@jordanbomb32]

He renovated a fixer upper house into a complete teardown 😂 terrible hideous home

[@tannersloan4488]

I think you grind some money build the 2nd house with the same attention to detail put both up for auction so you can see if it’s better to do small houses quick or larger ones and fate decides the office

[@Joyful_Traitor]

Oh god the exterior wall of that house the master bedroom looked great though Edit: I think you should keep the starting house and upgrade it

[@fryedaddy83]

You should add a light to the front by either the front door or above the garage door.
