Yea glad i saw this video. Im in the market for a house and im a first time buyer who is only interested in fixer uppers.

[@ethanhanbury4455]

Same lol

[@mattoney4094]

$450,000 for a home is not a fixer upper. Come on… I came here to get actual good information about fixer uppers and the story starts with a gentleman with $550,000 in buyer power? Such a waste of time.

Keep in mind that was a major city in Florida

my mom tooo. she was a single mother of 3 and is 55 yrs old now and finally saved for house and now she can't because of the insane market and insane inflation nowadays and she'd be a first time home buyer too

In New York City the worst dilapidated house that needs a complete demolition (forget a renovation) is 700k
