The Struggle To Sell A Cozy Cottage | The Unsellables | FULL EPISODE | House to Home

[@PropertyandRenoOfficial]

What do you think were the reasons why Lisa's cottage wasn't selling? 🤔🏠

[@kaynucklehead1633]

The cottage wasn't cozy it was cramped and even with the redo I still felt like I was looking at a shoebox. The rooms were tiny and cramped. But the yard was beautiful.

[@ginger1549]

Way too small, to cramped, to old and too dirty. I also would not like to do all the work maintaining that garden would require.

[@jennyklueter5096]

The front porch is falling down. There are twist up posts holding them up!

[@MANB91UK]

Because it's dated and looks neglected..

[@vegasjill21]

Goodness!! Such a gloriously charming view from the street...but you get inside and it's pretty useless, really. The 2 tiny bedrooms on the ground floor, the huge room upstairs that you have to DUCK under the doorway and crouch down for most of the floor space, AND only ONE teensy bathroom is a real shame, actually. And was there really a need for the benches at the dining table??? That BTW, seats 6????? The layout of the kitchen is terrible to have to prepare meals in everyday. So what do ya do... put 2 kids in each teeny room on the ground floor and the uncomfortable upstairs room goes to the parents??? ...And they all fight over ONE bath?? NAW...tear it down and start all over, I think!! The lot is the ONLY thing that's amazing!!!!

[@tanisdevlin6963]

your kids are about to leave home. Why sell now? just clean up

[@wilmacguzman4405]

Old real estate advice was "get the smallest house in the best neighbourhood". Considering the area - adding an extra full floor and or extension out back- doing a major renovation would be worth it as it is a beautiful property.

[@vivio2852]

[@globalfamily8172]

The loft walls are still needing TLC. Maybe a little trim fix?

[@joydixon3440]

I'm a single woman I would buy that if I had money.🙂

[@SuzanneU]

I would have bought this cottage as-is! I would have done it up to suit myself. I always mentally strip out all the furniture and choose paint colours I like. I have very definite ideas about my kitchen and standard kitchens leave me cold. I'd have had a professional check out the water damage and adjusted my offer to take the repair costs into account.

[@thedevilandhertrumpets4268]

It’s odd that potential buyers can’t see past superficial things like furniture and see their own or new items in a house.

[@littleblackpistol]

Right? It's obvious it'll look fine without people's stuff. I mean, the people who look at it, do THEY live in ordinary, lived-in homes? Yes. Yet there's this odd need to see some dumb fantasy staging that they won't have themselves when they move in.

[@debbieyates29]

Unfortunately, it's hard to see pat filth. The kitchen stove looked liked it had never been cleaned. The loft had dirty socks laying around? Have absolutely no respect for people like this, lazy.

[@maxxandme2ryan14]

I love this show BUT it never reveals the final outcome...like did it sell!!!!

[@LaLadybug2011]

That's the part that drives me insane too. It's frustrating to be left hanging...and this owner was so nice and never took any criticism personally. She was always smiling. Hopefully, she sold her cottage. Personally, I would've stayed in the cottage and sold the other house. Those kids are going to leave the nest eventually and the cottage is perfect for one!

[@BlueSaphire70]

@@LaLadybug2011 I agree! Once the kids move out to be on their own, she would have the house all to herself. But even if they didn't move, the three of them could continue living there quite comfortably with the improvements that were done.

[@DandyLion.Wishes]

Water damage that is not properly dealt with can breed *BLACK MOLD.* I lived 15 years in an apartment with black mold hidden in 4 out of 5 rooms. My health has been destroyed so just because you replaced the roof doesn't mean the potential for mold is gone.🤦

[@issievdhorst]

SEEN. LOVE the outside!!!! Inside terrible. FANTASTIC JOB! Love it now.

[@jenniferwells2291]

The house needs to be power washed on the outside. I'm also not sure why she needs more space when her daughter is grown and her son is about to graduate from high school. Will they be living with her for another 10yrs or more? Taking on more debt at her age so that her kids don't ever have to move out is crazy. They can get an apartment together and mom could stay put. I don't understand how the owner is surprised her place isn't selling considering her agent has told her what's wrong and what people have been saying, and she hasn't done anything to the place even when she first bought it.

[@tamielizabethallaway2413]

Absolutely agree! She gave up her bedroom for her son? No no no! The house is HERS, those kids will be long gone in no time! It's plenty big enough as it is, they just needed to clean the damn thing and tidy up! She's gonna end up wishing she had this house back again in ten years when she's living alone! Instead she'll be working til she's 80 to pay off the mortgage on the bigger house! She wanted that cottage since she was a child, and now giving it up to have the daughter's boyfriend and son's girlfriend round? They can sit in their bedrooms, dining room, on the porch, or in the garden, and Mum can be left in peace in the lounge. If it's not good enough for the kids, go round your partner's houses then instead! She's making herself a martyr for what? Kids who lounge about in filth and don't clean up after themselves? I'm all for putting your kids first, absolutely, but not to become a washed up drudge in the process. How does that command their respect? Crazy woman. No way would I take on debt for a bigger house at her stage of life. She should instead have already finished paying for - or at least almost at the end - of her current mortgage by now. Then looking forward to having that amount each month to spend on other things, hobbies and leisure time in her retirement years. Those kids won't thank her for it. They'll just think she's a pushover.

[@beckywebb1916]

It sounded like she said she couldn’t afford the house without her children’s help.

[@chellejack3480]

She said the house was too crowded with her kids boyfriends and girlfriends coming over on the weekends. Oh, that would be an absolute "NO" for me. In a house that size they need to find another place to socialize. Why should the mother be put out by these free loaders AND their guests?

[@tamielizabethallaway2413]

@@genxx2724 I agree with you on that point! If I had a boyfriend round as a teenager, we were allowed to sit in the kitchen to chat, not my bedroom upstairs! (I'm English btw) Our houses are generally much smaller than American homes, less land obviously. Actually, in the home I grew up in, the kitchen was probably the same size as this one! No room for a table, in fact my Dad made a lift-up flap table attached to the wall and had two folding stools. Most of the time it was flat against the wall, and the stools slid into the space beside the fridge-freezer. But my Dad would eat cereal and read the newspaper there before work, and me and my Mum would sit there when we got up for breakfast. . That was where me and a boyfriend could sit and chat, hold hands etc. Or of course sit in the lounge-diner with my parents - or the front or back gardens! . I didn't get married until I was 36, and only after marriage I then stayed with my husband at their house or they'd come stay in ours. Or of course we'd go on holidays all together. But even so, I would not "do" anything with my parents staying with us, and definitely not while staying at their house. Just the thought of doing "things" under their roof is enough to turn me off so low, I'd practically "shut up shop" altogether! Closed for business! 😂🤣😅 . It's like when I see couple's on a TV show or film and they're having sex and they hear the baby crying....and think, "oh the baby's ok for a minute, let's finish!" and yeah of course the baby is gonna be ok, but whenever I've heard my children cry out when they were babies, I'd instantly be in Mummy mode! Any passion dried up and gone from 60-zero instantly! . Once my thoughts are on either my parents, or on hearing my baby, my brain can't also have sexy thoughts. It makes me feel uncomfortable. I'm certainly no prude, but there's a time and a place, and you should have more respect and humility under your parent's roof! Fair enough these kids may just be innocently sitting and chatting, may still be virgins in fact, but they can sit and chat where they can be seen then! It's not about age or age of consent, clearly they're legally old enough. It's about showing respect for their mother, even more so as she's providing for them on her own! . This mother is leaning so far back to pander to her kids, she may as well lay flat on the floor and let them wipe their feet on her! They don't come across as needy kids, not that you can really tell from a short video anyway. But it seems to come more willingly from the Mother, almost apologetically, trying to accommodate their growing needs. It seems less like they're demanding it of her, and more like she's trying to prevent them having any reason to leave...? Maybe when they're married she'll have taken on even more debt to buy a mansion, so their spouses can move in, and have plenty of bedrooms for the Grandchildren too! . It's definitely a bit worrying. A bit possessive and stifling. I think she needs help or support coping with "empty nest syndrome". I know what it's like, my daughter was a wild teenager and left home aged 16. (And came back....and left....and came back....and left....😳 Pain in the bloody arse she was! 🤣 I can laugh about it now....just about! Hah, she's 33 now, married, and has 5 children of her own! 😁) When she left I felt strange and redundant. I met my husband around this time, and then had my son when my daughter was 18. My son would be almost 16 now, but died ten years ago aged 5½, from Chickenpox. So yeah, no one knows what empty nest syndrome feels like better than me! A 16 year old leaving was weird enough even knowing she'd hardly stay forever anyway, but a 5 year old suddenly being gone, when my head was very far from thinking of that leaving-home stage, has been awful to navigate! The title of Mummy just ripped away from me. You end up thinking: "who am I now?". I totally understand that transition period is strange. But she's practically "buying" their committment to stay with her...? You don't limit their freedom and choices, out of selfishness. She's not being fair to them, and willing to take on ridiculous debt at her age to make them stay! That's quite desperate. . If anything she should be downsizing! Surely her kids needed MORE space when they were younger, with multiple friends coming round to play or sleepover? Birthday parties indoors? Giant floor puzzles and train sets spread out on the floor? Room for running around and jumping or dancing? They managed perfectly up til now? The cottage is small, yes, but not tiny. The rooms are small individually, but there's lots of them, so multiple options of places to sit and chat privately. With school, college and work they must be out most of every day anyway? It's a very strange time to go bigger indeed! 😘😘😘

A railing around the front porch would have been a nice touch too.

[@Atochabsh]

This show just proves that most people are NOT interior decorators. On top of that I think most home owners in this series bought the homes in the condition they are trying to sell it in. They bought it like that, but no one today wants to buy it unless it's at a steep discount. The learning part is, if you could fix the house up for under $5000 could you or would you? And you had someone spend that $5000 wisely. Other then that, it's all about staging the house and paying someone to stage it, because very few people actually live in a staged home.

[@littleblackpistol]

Nobody LIVES in a staged home. Even the buyers who want a staged home will turn it into a normal, lived-in, ordinary home. Selling houses seems to be about selling nonsense ideas about living to people.

[@melody5437]

Well, we won't know if it's worth it or not from this show, because they never tell when (and if) it sold and for how much

[@garthl2954]

Lisa was one step away from saying "I'm sorry I'm selling"!! How sad. However, it may be a profitable sale and a change as good as a holiday which she may not be able to afford anytime soon ... 🤔 She's been very brave to have allowed comment and intrusion. I live in a country town, not too small, where houses are currently being sold as people are moving out from the cities as a societal shift post-Covid and people here are aging and have other reasons for moving on. Ads appear daily on a Property selling site and pics are included! I look at them for the horror factor!! Oversized leather couches in "serviceable" chocolate brown or black, too large for the space, parked halfway across doorways or in front of windows making them inaccessible, and an ugly trend not only to paint the houses grey but to carry that thru to the master bedroom and try to correct it with hideous pink/lilac chiffon curtaining - how do men sleep in these spaces?? When did this become a style?😲

[@tamielizabethallaway2413]

I detest grey! It's the most depressing colour ever! And furniture that doesn't suit the house it's in! I like white personally indoors with natural wood cabinets and furniture. Nice and bright and fresh looking, much easier to chop and change the look when you want to update, by replacing rugs, curtains, cushions, bedding, towels etc . Use them for colour. I prefer blues, greens, neutrals. I'd paint the outside white. Pink chiffon with grey???? That's beyond tragic! Is it 1985 again? 🥺 It was bloody awful back then, so why anyone would do it now is just crazy! 🙄 Ugh! What a vile colour combo that is! 🤢 😘😘😘

[@littleblackpistol]

What's so horrifying about how people actually live? You're not buying the sofa, are you? Just the house. If you can't see past people's own furniture to the actual space, you'd not very bright.

[@WinstonTL]

Absolutely ridiculous asking price for what basically is a shoebox, they only showed one bedroom, the kitchen is tiny and there were two metal poles at either end of the porch supporting the roof, she even stated in the video that it was cramped for three adults, how on earth would she even think that it is big enough for a young family?

[@thevintagebelle]

... I think a round table ,and chairs would have been more inviting , four chairs are enough. ..maybe set an extra 2 on one wall , if needed... A round table in a square room balances things, and its more inviting. That Dining Room needed a small console table or sonething, with 2 tall buffet lamps to give it some pizazz. The Madter bedroom is nice, but it looks austere. The Sitting Room room turned out nice, painting the Fireplace made a huge difference. I think the front porch posts should have been psinted black, and the front door,as well. These are just my observations. :).

There is no way these renovations are as inexpensive as claimed. $3300 probably was for all the materials, but what did the labor cost?

[@sbffsbrarbrr]

That's what I often think during these types of videos. Yes, maybe if you DIY'd the whole project but they bring in a large crew, finish in a day or two and make it seem like everything was an easy fix. The price of labor and equipment would easily double this renovation price. I'm just glad I don't live in an area where a home like that is $350K.

[@Holidaygal]

Maybe the 3300 excluded the cost of the new furniture (dining room table chairs and bedroom linens was almost 1,000) that will be moved to her new house and did and did not include the labor cost of Anthony or his crew, maybe it included some other labor?

In Nashville, a tiny cottage still in dumpy condition would have sold for $500k or more.. in a day. Shame she had to do repairs at all.. People want the AREA.

A cottage should be light and airy. Not sure what year this sale occurred, but in upnorth MI it would be a tear down. The parcel is worth maybe $250k if on or close to water ....so maybe a sales price of $275-$325k....I bet the crawl space is a disaster.

[@marywilson9186]

Why would you leave the 2 floor jacks on each side of the front porch. I would have noticed that immediately.

[@whitequeen96]

I live in Southern California, and I can't imagine a house that inexpensive in such a nice neighborhood! No way can you buy anything with that much land plus a house for $399K here! You can spend that for 1,560 sq ft, 40 yr. old mobile home in a nice mobile home park, but nothing near a lake. Or maybe a decrepit townhouse in a pretty bad area. And you still have to pay space rent or HOA fees every month!

[@Skeptique]

This episode must be ancient. The average detached house price in Toronto is now $1.7 million. I have a 2 bedroom condo outside the city limits and my upstairs neighbour just sold an identical unit for $900K. Even if there was no house on this land it would be worth well over $1 million. I honestly don't remember the last time you could buy a detached house in Toronto for $399K. If you search the real estate listings under $400K, you'll find nothing but parking spots and a handful of apartments in cockroach-infested buildings that will probably sell $100K over asking.

A little dramatic with the "kitty litter in the bathroom"!!! Where else would be a logical placement of a kitty box? Get over yourself!!! FYI, the United States is not in Canada.

[@TerryInUSA]

As someone who had a litter box in the bathroom I can tell you it's a mistake. Bathrooms are humid from baths and showers and the cat box smells mix with the humid air which gets on you after you take a bath or shower. Plus, litter is scattered out of the box every time the cat uses it and jumps out. So your newly cleaned feet pick up litter from the floor. And finally, litter boxes put litter dust in the air, which then settles on all the bathroom surfaces. This is cleanliness?

@@TerryInUSA I think that's the CN tower in Toronto. @Grayce Stratton: The house is in Cliffside (Scarborough), east of downtown Toronto, a couple of blocks from a huge park on Lake Ontario, and not far from a commuter train station - so it's a highly desirable location. Most houses in Cliffside sell now in the several millions (Toronto house prices are insane.)
