They FIXED This Completely Destroyed Mobile Home (And Did It Quick!)

[@malcolmschenot6352]

When I saw the first video I was thinking it would come a long way if the bad floors were replaced. Et voila! Here it is! I love your content, guys. And I agree some people are on their high horse but a lot of people have far worse housing than this and would benefit greatly with the opportunity to fix this up and have a good life in it.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Absolutely

[@airman6822]

This is the kind of stuff I like to fix. It's just so satisfying when you're done.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yep

[@stephanieblackburn2778]

Man I love that comment. don't get too high up on your horse. Your right tons of people have it so bad they would love to just have a home. You could fix it as you go. But you got kids and living in a camper or a tent yea this is a castle.

[@johnberry1107]

Some of us hard working, blood sweating, chow loving usa people greatly enjoy mobile homes. vintage is more whimsical but just as good and typically better especially if it had any maintenance and a dry climate. Water Wins! Thank you. We be Bottom Feeders.

I believe it was 1972 or 73... In western NC Brevard area... my parents lived on a hill...you had to go up a driveway to get to it. Beautiful area... I was born in 1972 and I vaguely remember the years we lived in a single wide trailer...My grandparents below lived in a house...anyway, I think it was the late 70s my dad started fixing things up....To this day, that trailer is still there... but you would NEVER know it... It looks like a huge blue home now... and connected to that he built sort of a loft type apartment that he rents...He has ZERO problem renting it... It's a beautiful area.. You feel like you're out in the country but really town is minutes away.... He's in his 70s now... the hurricane sent a tree onto his house BARELY missing the main house... but got his porch so he's been having to do repairs on the porch. I told him NOT to do it himself... I live out of state. not really sure why I'm sharing this but seeing this trailer reminded me of that trailer.

[@stephaniesutton7681]

Thank you for doing this, I love it! (Meaning, how they made it livable!) Getting to see the difference between it just getting there to where it is "for sale".

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks for watching

[@brigham2150]

I was hoping you’d update us on this one. Thanks for the tour!

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks

[@1020mj]

WOW what a difference. I agree things can be fixed. IF you have the money and the time. Kitchen looks a lot better but I noticed in the video that they just placed the new lower cab. over the whole in the floor. I would have put new flooring down first and then the cab. Upper cab should have gone bye bye also but like you said in the video, people living in tents after the flooding would take this and clean it up and make it there own. I personally would buy it now. It would make a great rental. Thanks for showing it again. I miss those upper curtains over the garden tube. I have the garden tube in mine but no curtains. I like to see it again once they put flooring down.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

They did a hell of a job with minimal money spent

[@truthhearit1471]

OSB is crap!! Plywood is much better.

[@jamesf1795]

Good morning Donnie and Ronnie! Here for another tour! Have a good day yall! That’s so sad hearing about the people in the tents! Hope they find housing! 🙏🏻

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks for watching

[@jarbalojim]

Nice job on the intro! I remember commenting that this one was a bonfire candidate. I wish they would have replaced the floor under the tubs and showers but that would have been too much work I guess. From the ouside this one didn't look too bad, it was the inside. I can't imagine anyone living there, but they did.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yeah, I don’t think they’re trying to fix it all the way they’re trying to get it were somebody can see the vision

[@saskia6750]

Tbh,for a quick patch up job,it kinda looks ok now :) Thanks Donny x

[@jrdc099]

Yeah, I would probably have thrown out the kitchen and bathroom cabinets. That's just nitpicking though, overall it looks a lot better. Maybe they left the cabinets in there, just to give an idea of how the layout could be.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

I couldn’t believe the transformation

[@brandonguillory242]

That crazy how they get it back in good shape looks like from here they did it right

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Looks good

[@williamnutley5509]

It's come a long way! Thanks, guys, for the video. Have a good weekend. Catch you Tuesday!

[@mybrotherdonnie]

See you then

[@nancyison7481]

Hey Ronnie and Donnie I’m glad you went back to this one. How much did you say they wanted for this one? I think I would make the cabinets go all the way to that wall remove the stove and put it on the other side of that kitchen and put cabinets on that wall with the pantry cabinet. Maybe try to fit the hot water heater in that utility room and get stackable washer and dryer

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Most of the use Doublewide’s are 50,000

[@nancyison7481]

@ Are you gonna go get this one?

[@mybrotherdonnie]

@ no

[@nancyison7481]

@ The land you said you had to put a double on it. I think this one is a good mobile home for someone to live in at 50k + set up. The kitchen you can arrange the way you want and the bathrooms too

[@mybrotherdonnie]

@@nancyison7481 it would be a good one for somebody. I think it’s still a little too pricey for me or you gonna be 60,000 installed are you gonna put another 20 in it that close I would probably buy a new one cause for 115 and they will set it up if it’s new.

[@theresaupton9370]

Totally agree with what you said about the people in western NC.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks

[@shirleyyoung1941]

I wish I could buy it and send it to those victims of the hurricane ,they sure would appreciate it

[@djrickyb]

This was a cool video with all the flash backs to the first time in that mobile home! I hope they sell it at a real low price to someone who needs a home who was affected by the Hurricane! Or at least someone homeless, and in dyer need of a roof over their heads!

[@prissilou]

Yep, this takes me back a spell. That was our big plan. Bought a 14 X 60 singlewide, as "a place to live while we built our house. The MH itself wasn't in bad shape, just older with MDF floors. And then before we could get started on the house, had to adopt 2 special needs grandkids. The focus shifted to making it livable for 2 more people, so it was gut and redo the 2nd bedroom, then gut and redo the bathroom, and then the kitchen, and by the time we got to that point, we got another option. Older mobile homes can be fixed, but it's work (as you know). And newer mobile homes that have been rode hard and put up wet can be hard work as well. Don't envy you the work. Don't suppose you boys got any family up that way named Musk, do ya? We can't place them, but thought maybe you might know them. I thought I might have heard of some Musks up in Virginia, but wasn't sure. Still trying to figure out if their Americans, or who they are. 😎

[@Turde_Ferguson5150]

🤣 Great intro!

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Thanks

[@zanesutherland406]

Paint goes a long way! I’m sure that nasty old plywood is holding a lot of odors. Better to replace it all, but I suppose next best thing is put Kilz on all that and call it a day. Fine for a rental or affordable housing I suppose.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Believe it or not, it didn’t smell

[@julianparks3325]

I hope to do a tiny home community on my 9 acers and a lake yall inspired me

[@RosemaryBlantonCrosslin]

Why do people not take care of their homes 😞. I just don't understand...but😊 I know y'all will make it nice again. Growing up we live in a old 3 room house no running water 🌊. Hand Pump outside to get 🌊 Water. One big bedroom with 2 double beds in it. And living room was big big and had a another bed in it. Kitchen was long with electric stove and refrigerator. Little counter ..table / 4 chairs. No bathroom. Had back porch and front porch with 2 doors

[@mybrotherdonnie]

My mom i used to talk about about the same thing

[@monkeyz240]

Age, money, mental health. I’m capable of fixing basic plumbing issues myself in my home just because i happened to have been working at a place where I learned a lot about plumbing. But if you don’t know anything, you have a leak and it just leaks forever because you can’t afford a plumber and you need your water so they won’t just shut off the main. For example my moms water heater just flooded her garage, she lives alone but managed to get the water shut off, but if she didn’t have the $1000 or so to drop on a new water heater and install well. She’d be screwed. So when you have no money, no one to help, and no knowledge on certain trades, your house will fall apart. Even faster if it’s a mobile home. So not everyone is just messy and lazy.

[@robynboone8256]

Lack of money.

[@kimberlybush2219]

What is sad is that the Amish built over 100 tiny homes for the disaster victims of North Carolina, but government officials got nit picky about their regulations and kept the tiny homes from being used. The beaurocrats would rather see people in tents shivering from the cold.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Yep

[@helidude3502]

Function before style. As long as they aren’t overcharging for this, it’s just fine. This one is probably budgeted to match a FEMA check 🤔

[@courtneyclark995]

I will never understand people buying a brand new home just to destroy it later. Does anyone not take pride in their homes anymore? My ex sister-in-law who came from a poor childhood, finally bought her dream home.Big beautiful home and she destroyed it within 4 yrs by smoking excessively inside the house and letting her dogs and cats urinate and 💩all over inside the house.Makes no sense. I would have cherished that house and kept it nice. It doesn’t take a lot of money to touch up paint, vacuum or sweep/ mop a floor periodically.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

People just don’t care anymore and then they don’t even pay for it. They let bank have it back.

[@redneckbryon]

I thought this place was beyond repair, since you could see the outside from the inside, and not through the windows or doors. 8:30, I think it’s the same sink and taps.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Me too lol

[@unclefester6033]

Many of these are rentals & tenants dont care! As the landlords give up on repairs & just sit back & collect the rent🤔

These are probably all repos. When people lose property to foreclose or repo they always destroy it first!🙄🤷‍♂️. That includes cars as well.

OK, gotta admit, just trying to mess with you boys a little bit. But, to the point, everything can be fixed, just how much do you want to spend. Like Donnie said.

[@mybrotherdonnie]

Probably need to wait a little bit. Everything’s expensive right now look for a used one that a third-party is selling make sure it ain’t tore up too bad and make sure you know your counties particulars when it comes to mobile homes there is all kinds of rules and regulations you have to follow go to your county office first
