Alysse owns a beauty studio

00:00:08,367 --> 00:00:11,467
that does everything from
eyebrows to lashes to makeup.
7
00:00:11,467 --> 00:00:14,100
And she just bought
this really cool,
8
00:00:14,100 --> 00:00:15,667
old building
in Fountain Square.
9
00:00:15,667 --> 00:00:17,367
I think her goal really
is to make it
10
00:00:17,367 --> 00:00:18,667
as multi-function
as possible.

00:00:18,667 --> 00:00:20,266

That's definitely the toilet.

Unfortunately, we've got
a little bit of a leak

00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:26,367
in the toilet flange.
16
00:00:26,367 --> 00:00:27,667
A little bit of a leak?

00:00:27,667 --> 00:00:29,467
Oh, it just dripped
on my head!

00:00:29,467 --> 00:00:30,567
Ahh!
19
00:00:30,567 --> 00:00:32,266
So how much, uh, hole digging
20
00:00:32,266 --> 00:00:33,667
will there actually be then?
21
00:00:33,667 --> 00:00:35,467
-Thirty holes.
-Oh.

to visit with Adrienne

because we both work too much,
52

we see each other

is when we're at

And Alysse is here,
which is very exciting

and works
with a ton of brides.
58

So she and Adrienne's paths
59
00:02:03,967 --> 00:02:05,200
cross quite a bit.
60
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,166
Well, I have some big news.
61
00:02:07,166 --> 00:02:09,100
-What?
-I just bought a new building.

-Downtown Fountain Square.

00:02:25,500 --> 00:02:28,400
And she just bought
this really cool,
71
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,867
old building
in Fountain Square.
72
00:02:29,867 --> 00:02:32,367
[Alysse] I'm thinking
businesses inside,
73
00:02:32,367 --> 00:02:34,166
other small beauty businesses.
74
00:02:34,166 --> 00:02:36,500
I wanna make it beautiful
75
00:02:36,500 --> 00:02:38,667
and super functional for all
the businesses in there.
76
00:02:38,667 --> 00:02:42,367
I started from my living
room couch ottoman.
77
00:02:42,367 --> 00:02:46,367
And so I wanted to be able to
give other beauty businesses
78
00:02:46,367 --> 00:02:48,266
the opportunity
to have their own space
79
00:02:48,266 --> 00:02:49,767
and grow successfully.

a pretty big renovation.

00:02:51,367 --> 00:02:53,400
Yeah. Like a whole do-over.

00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,100

Alysse started her business
in her living room.
86
00:03:02,166 --> 00:03:04,500
And now I get to be part
of building out this huge

like I did with Adrienne.

then getting to be part of it.

I made the checkup to visit

95
00:03:27,867 --> 00:03:30,100
And you've probably
not ever had,

like, the opportunity
to meet her, but Alysse...
97
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,467
She was up there
because her and Adrienne
98
00:03:35,467 --> 00:03:38,166
have kind of become friends
and she started her business
99
00:03:38,166 --> 00:03:40,266
with the eyelashes
and eyebrows
100
00:03:40,266 --> 00:03:42,100
in her living room
in her house.
101
00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:44,667
She's been renting the spot
that she's currently at

for the last five years.
103
00:03:46,266 --> 00:03:49,266
And she just bought
the old flower shop
104
00:03:49,266 --> 00:03:51,567
on Prospect across
from the fire station.
105
00:03:51,567 --> 00:03:52,767
Fantastic.
106
00:03:52,767 --> 00:03:54,600
[narrator] So it's right in
the heart of Fountain Square
107
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:55,867
and it's the perfect area
108
00:03:55,867 --> 00:03:57,166
for Alysse
to move her business to
109
00:03:57,166 --> 00:03:58,700
because Fountain
Square is booming
110
00:03:58,700 --> 00:04:00,867
and commercial businesses
are thriving.
111
00:04:00,867 --> 00:04:02,567
I think her goal really
is to make it

00:04:02,567 --> 00:04:04,000

[narrator] It's two stories
and the downstairs area
115
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,567
will include her eyebrow,
eyelash, and makeup business
116
00:04:12,567 --> 00:04:15,100
while the rest of the rooms
on the first and second floor
117
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:17,100
are gonna be converted
into rentable spaces
118
00:04:17,100 --> 00:04:19,567
for other beauty
and wellness businesses.
119
00:04:19,567 --> 00:04:22,467
Alysse bought
the building for $290,000.
120
00:04:22,467 --> 00:04:25,166
It's a pretty big place,
so it's gonna cost a lot
121
00:04:25,166 --> 00:04:27,867
to turn it into the upscale
commercial space she wants.
122
00:04:27,867 --> 00:04:31,000
And she's willing to put
a whopping $300,000 into it

00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,200

is she's gonna have,

-their own space.
-[Alysse] Yeah.

00:06:25,166 --> 00:06:27,100
-No. It's a hard no.
-I mean, it's cute, but...
177
00:06:27,100 --> 00:06:29,000
-You won't hurt my feelings.
-I want... I want
178
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,266
something a little bit
more updated.
179
00:06:30,266 --> 00:06:32,100
-Mmm-hmm. Yeah.
-But it's got a lot
of cool character.
180
00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:33,200
-[Cody] Yeah.
-Yes.
181
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,500
Let's go and take
a look at this.
182
00:06:34,500 --> 00:06:37,567
[upbeat music playing]
183
00:06:37,567 --> 00:06:39,100
So in this space,
184
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:42,467
I'd love to have
almost like a bridal suite.
185
00:06:42,467 --> 00:06:45,867
We work with a ton of brides
on our day of, um,
186
00:06:45,867 --> 00:06:47,367
like getting ready.
187
00:06:47,367 --> 00:06:50,166
When their hair stylist and
their makeup artist come in,
188
00:06:50,166 --> 00:06:52,867
they have a beautiful space
to get ready and--
189
00:06:52,867 --> 00:06:54,367
-Yeah.
-[Mina] So living room,
190
00:06:54,367 --> 00:06:55,600
and then when
they're getting ready,
191
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:56,867
-it's kind of...
-Yeah.
192
00:06:56,867 --> 00:06:59,800
transformable
into the makeup, hair--
193
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,066
-Right. Right.
-[Mina] Okay.
194
00:07:01,066 --> 00:07:02,266
Let's go see more.
195
00:07:02,266 --> 00:07:05,767
[upbeat music playing]
196
00:07:05,767 --> 00:07:07,500
Ooh, this floor system
looks like
197
00:07:07,500 --> 00:07:09,800
it has a little bit of a...
Of a dance to it.
198
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,000
-[Mina] It does.
-[Alysse] It does.
199
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,767
[Mina] I mean, it's sagging
in some of the corners
200
00:07:12,767 --> 00:07:15,100
mainly because...
Like the gutters are unhooked
201
00:07:15,100 --> 00:07:16,967
or there's been some
kind of water penetration.
202
00:07:16,967 --> 00:07:18,700
-We'll go downstairs
and you can check that out.
-Yeah, you can tell
203
00:07:18,700 --> 00:07:20,500
that that corner's definitely
been saturated because
204
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:22,467
look at the water staining
on the wall especially.
205
00:07:22,467 --> 00:07:24,000
[Mina] Yeah. Yeah.
What's this space?
206
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,500
That's gonna be the OVA Suite.
207
00:07:25,500 --> 00:07:27,367
That's gonna be
my business in there.
208
00:07:27,367 --> 00:07:31,000
We'll have two lash and brow
beds and a makeup stations.
209
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,567
[Mina] Okay.
But all of this space,
210
00:07:32,567 --> 00:07:34,000
we're gonna open up
with this next room
211
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:35,266
to be our kitchen area, right?
212
00:07:35,266 --> 00:07:36,900
[Alysse] Yeah.
213
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:38,800
[Mina] So back here will be...
214
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,266
-[Alysse] Kitchen, the bar.
-[Mina] kitchen, bar.
215
00:07:41,266 --> 00:07:43,600
So you can kind of do
an L kitchen here.
216
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:44,800
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-[Mina] Yeah.
217
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,266
But if you're having,
218
00:07:46,266 --> 00:07:49,266
you know, like your breakfast
champagne spread here...
219
00:07:49,266 --> 00:07:50,867
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-[Mina] they have access to...
220
00:07:50,867 --> 00:07:53,367
-[Alysse] To the...
To the kitchen, the bar.
-like, the whole kitchen bar.
221
00:07:53,367 --> 00:07:55,567
Depending on how this
all gets set up, um,
222
00:07:55,567 --> 00:07:57,567
I'd love to do
a walk up window
223
00:07:57,567 --> 00:07:59,100
so we can have a small
coffee shop
224
00:07:59,100 --> 00:08:00,400
that's open to the public.
225
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,500
Well, I think if we put a slab
there where it comes down,
226
00:08:02,500 --> 00:08:03,467
like half would be inside,
227
00:08:03,467 --> 00:08:05,000
half would be outside
kind of thing.
228
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,367
-[Alysse] Mmm-hmm.
-[Cory] Interesting.
229
00:08:06,367 --> 00:08:07,867
[Mina] And then this space
back here, it...
230
00:08:07,867 --> 00:08:10,266
[upbeat music playing]
231
00:08:10,266 --> 00:08:12,500
[Mina] This door gone
and this whole back space...
232
00:08:12,500 --> 00:08:13,967
Are you just thinking, like,
233
00:08:13,967 --> 00:08:16,266
split it up into individual
rooms, make it one big room?
234
00:08:16,266 --> 00:08:18,567
[Alysse] One big room,
almost considered as, like,
235
00:08:18,567 --> 00:08:20,266
its own personal hair salon.
236
00:08:20,266 --> 00:08:24,100
We were thinking two wash
bowls on that side, and then,
237
00:08:24,100 --> 00:08:26,200
what,
like four stylist booths.
238
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,767
[Mina] Okay.
So we'll add everything
239
00:08:27,767 --> 00:08:30,600
to make this backroom a fully
functioning hair salon.
240
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,867
Let's go check out
the back then.
241
00:08:31,867 --> 00:08:33,100
Let's do it.
242
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:36,333
[upbeat music playing]
243
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:38,900
[Mina] What are you wanting
this to be?
244
00:08:38,900 --> 00:08:40,467
Is it just parking
and you walk... Like,
245
00:08:40,467 --> 00:08:42,100
this is a back entrance
or you're wanting this
246
00:08:42,100 --> 00:08:43,200
to be a social space?
247
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,900
[Alysse] I would love for this
to also be somewhat
248
00:08:44,900 --> 00:08:47,000
of a social space and
a nice... A nice deck,
249
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,500
if budget allows and--
250
00:08:48,500 --> 00:08:50,767
[Mina] We could go over
most of the concrete.
251
00:08:50,767 --> 00:08:52,300
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-This is our worst corner.
252
00:08:52,300 --> 00:08:53,700
So if we go down
to the basement,
253
00:08:53,700 --> 00:08:55,467
you have to like peek
through the crawl to see it,
254
00:08:55,467 --> 00:08:57,166
-but we can see the rest
of the foundation.
-The worst corner...
255
00:08:57,166 --> 00:08:59,166
-[Mina] It's the worst.
-like, worse off
256
00:08:59,166 --> 00:09:01,000
-than the one in the front?
-Yes.
257
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,100
-Go.
-The one that she says
258
00:09:02,100 --> 00:09:03,100
-is not terrible?
-Ha-cha!
259
00:09:03,100 --> 00:09:04,567
[laughs] It's not terrible.
260
00:09:04,567 --> 00:09:06,467
The one that's like
the most tattered?
261
00:09:06,467 --> 00:09:09,567
[upbeat music playing]
262
00:09:09,567 --> 00:09:10,867
Ooh.
263
00:09:10,867 --> 00:09:12,200
This water is new, Alysse.
264
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,166
[Alysse] Oh, that is new.
It smells.
265
00:09:14,166 --> 00:09:16,000
That's right below
the bathroom.
266
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,266
[Cory]
That's definitely the toilet.
267
00:09:17,266 --> 00:09:18,767
Unfortunately,
we've got a little bit
268
00:09:18,767 --> 00:09:20,367
of a leak
in the toilet flange.
269
00:09:20,367 --> 00:09:21,767
A little bit of a leak?
270
00:09:21,767 --> 00:09:23,667
Who used the bathroom earlier?
271
00:09:23,667 --> 00:09:26,000
Mina had to take a leak
this morning,
272
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,500
and she used the only toilet
that existed in the house.
273
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:31,467
-Oh, my God.
-So that's Mina's pee
274
00:09:31,467 --> 00:09:34,667
dripping down from the...
From the floor system.
275
00:09:34,667 --> 00:09:36,867
Whatever.
Like, it's crazy how--
276
00:09:36,867 --> 00:09:38,567
Oh, it just dripped
down my head!
277
00:09:38,567 --> 00:09:39,734
No!
278
00:09:40,367 --> 00:09:41,767
Ahh!
279
00:09:43,066 --> 00:09:45,166
[upbeat music playing]
280
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,000
[Cory] So that's Mina's pee
281
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,967
dripping down
from the floor system.
282
00:09:48,967 --> 00:09:50,900
Whatever.
Like, it's crazy how--
283
00:09:50,900 --> 00:09:53,266
Oh, it just dripped
down my head! No!
284
00:09:53,266 --> 00:09:55,400
No, it didn't. Ahh!
285
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,867
Thank goodness,
she didn't drop a number two
286
00:09:57,867 --> 00:09:58,967
in there because...
287
00:09:58,967 --> 00:10:00,166
It dripped on Cory.
288
00:10:00,166 --> 00:10:02,300
the good Lord knows that
Cory be going home
289
00:10:02,300 --> 00:10:03,800
to power wash himself.
290
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,567
See how the floor joist
overlapped that one beam
291
00:10:06,567 --> 00:10:08,000
-and that beam is failing?
-[Mina] Uh-huh.
292
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,667
[Cory] That definitely
needs to be addressed.
293
00:10:09,667 --> 00:10:10,467
That's not good.
294
00:10:10,467 --> 00:10:12,567
Ten, maybe fifteen
thousand dollars...
295
00:10:12,567 --> 00:10:14,266
-Yeah.
-of shoring some stuff up,
296
00:10:14,266 --> 00:10:15,467
but it's not bad.
297
00:10:15,467 --> 00:10:17,367
Let's go back upstairs,
all the way upstairs.
298
00:10:17,367 --> 00:10:18,967
-We go?
-Yeah.
299
00:10:18,967 --> 00:10:20,266
In the pee mud.
300
00:10:20,266 --> 00:10:23,367
[upbeat music playing]
301
00:10:23,367 --> 00:10:24,900
[Mina]
So what is this gonna be?
302
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:26,900
-[Alysse] Private suite. Yup.
-[Cory] Like a common hallway
303
00:10:26,900 --> 00:10:28,266
and then like little suites
that are off
304
00:10:28,266 --> 00:10:29,867
-to each side?
-[Alysse] Private suite, yeah.
305
00:10:29,867 --> 00:10:32,166
One big suite and this will
be another big, private suite.
306
00:10:32,166 --> 00:10:34,000
-All these are private suites.
-And three up there.
307
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,166
So there'll be five up here?
308
00:10:35,166 --> 00:10:36,467
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-[Cory] That's crazy.
309
00:10:36,467 --> 00:10:38,667
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-[Cory] This is gonna
be a cash cow.
310
00:10:38,667 --> 00:10:41,667
[narrator] Alysse bought this
whole property for $290,000.
311
00:10:41,667 --> 00:10:45,266
And I think if we can stay
around the $300,000 mark
312
00:10:45,266 --> 00:10:47,266
on the renovation,
that'd be reasonable.
313
00:10:47,266 --> 00:10:48,867
And based
on the rental income
314
00:10:48,867 --> 00:10:50,400
of the other businesses
going into the space,
315
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,500
Alysse could expect to not
only cover the mortgage,
316
00:10:52,500 --> 00:10:55,266
but turn a small profit
right away.
317
00:10:55,266 --> 00:10:56,900
But we have to stretch
that budget
318
00:10:56,900 --> 00:10:58,166
to have our ton of work.
319
00:10:58,166 --> 00:10:59,266
On the outside,
we need to update
320
00:10:59,266 --> 00:11:00,667
the facade and landscaping,
321
00:11:00,667 --> 00:11:02,567
so it feels more modern
and more along the lines
322
00:11:02,567 --> 00:11:04,000
of what Alysse wants.
323
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,567
We've got some
foundation work to address
324
00:11:05,567 --> 00:11:07,266
and we're putting in
a brand-new kitchen,
325
00:11:07,266 --> 00:11:09,166
building out the coffee shop
and walk up access
326
00:11:09,166 --> 00:11:11,367
from the outside,
building out the hair salon,
327
00:11:11,367 --> 00:11:12,667
the back deck,
and we're gonna put
328
00:11:12,667 --> 00:11:14,367
five individual suites
upstairs
329
00:11:14,367 --> 00:11:15,800
that she can rent out.
330
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,266
This is a huge project
331
00:11:17,266 --> 00:11:18,800
and we have a really
tight timeline.
332
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,166
Alysse has to be out of her
current location in 16 weeks.
333
00:11:22,166 --> 00:11:24,367
On top of that, she's already
rented out space
334
00:11:24,367 --> 00:11:26,867
to other businesses
who are ready to move in.
335
00:11:26,867 --> 00:11:28,600
So we need to get this place
finished up,
336
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,266
done so everyone can move in.
337
00:11:30,266 --> 00:11:32,000
Um, we have a tight timeline.
338
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,266
So let's get demo scheduled
and then next up.
339
00:11:35,266 --> 00:11:37,667
You know, we're not just
coming in here and living.
340
00:11:37,667 --> 00:11:39,700
We're actually have businesses
in here
341
00:11:39,700 --> 00:11:42,100
and they have to run their
business and make money,
342
00:11:42,100 --> 00:11:44,800
and they have clientele,
so I feel the pressure
343

-[Alysse] Yeah.
-Do you have good insurance?

00:12:35,367 --> 00:12:36,667

of Alysse's suite,

there's what looks to be
456
00:14:56,266 --> 00:14:58,367
an old doorway
that was closed in.
457
00:14:58,367 --> 00:15:00,100
And I wanna get the demo done
458
00:15:00,100 --> 00:15:02,467
on the inside so we can see
if there actually is
459
00:15:02,467 --> 00:15:03,600
an original header there.
460
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:04,867
If there's an original
header,
461
00:15:04,867 --> 00:15:07,300
we can keep that opening and
put a door or a window back.
462
00:15:07,300 --> 00:15:08,667
And that's really important
for Alysse
463
00:15:08,667 --> 00:15:10,867
to get natural light
into her beauty suite,
464
00:15:10,867 --> 00:15:12,900
so I'm really hoping
that's what we find.

00:15:12,900 --> 00:15:15,500
All right. See if we got
a header up there.

for interpretation.

used to look like.

It's horizontal,

it's laid flat instead of up,
491
00:15:59,467 --> 00:16:01,200
like that is an old
window header.
492
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,367
And it's the old window header
493
00:16:02,367 --> 00:16:03,667

above it.

in there.

00:16:43,166 --> 00:16:45,166
along with putting on
a new roof.
514
00:16:45,166 --> 00:16:48,333
[upbeat music playing]
515
00:16:49,166 --> 00:16:50,266
[Cory] Hello.
516
00:16:50,266 --> 00:16:51,200
[Mina] Hello.
517
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,567
[Cory] Wiping things down?
518
00:16:52,567 --> 00:16:54,800
Well, it is a little grimy,
it was bugging me.
519
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,767
[narrator]
With the first steps
of construction underway,
520
00:16:56,767 --> 00:16:58,667
now is the perfect time
for Cory and I
521
00:16:58,667 --> 00:16:59,867
to go over the floor plans.
522
00:16:59,867 --> 00:17:01,867
[Cory]
These are thick plan sets.
523
00:17:01,867 --> 00:17:03,166
Probably some
of the thicker ones
524
00:17:03,166 --> 00:17:04,700
we've ever rolled out
on this table.
525
00:17:04,700 --> 00:17:06,767
Because this here
is a commercial space.
526
00:17:06,767 --> 00:17:09,200
-We've got a lot going on.
-My goodness.
527
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,200
[narrator] On the outside,
Alysse wants it
to be more modern,
528
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:12,867
so we're getting rid
of a lot of that
529
00:17:12,867 --> 00:17:14,967
decorative molding
and putting up a sleek board
530
00:17:14,967 --> 00:17:17,100
and batten siding
and doing an all-white
531
00:17:17,100 --> 00:17:19,233
exterior with black windows.
532
00:17:20,867 --> 00:17:22,166
[Cory] This is crazy.
533
00:17:22,166 --> 00:17:24,100
This is going through
some major changes,
534
00:17:24,100 --> 00:17:25,767
-which is super exciting.
-Yeah.
535
00:17:25,767 --> 00:17:27,266
I know how hard trying to grow
536
00:17:27,266 --> 00:17:28,767
my own business was
from the ground up,
537
00:17:28,767 --> 00:17:30,700
so I really respect Alysse
doing that,
538
00:17:30,700 --> 00:17:31,967
and on top of that,
539
00:17:31,967 --> 00:17:33,567
trying to help these other
businesses grow.
540
00:17:33,567 --> 00:17:35,767
So this space really
has to pack a punch.
541
00:17:35,767 --> 00:17:37,166
Everything down,
542
00:17:37,166 --> 00:17:38,567
no more band-aids,
starting fresh.
543
00:17:38,567 --> 00:17:39,600
-[Cory] Yeah.
-We've got this cute,
544
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,166
-little foyer.
-[Cory] That's so cute.
545
00:17:41,166 --> 00:17:42,367
[Mina] Tons of natural light.
546
00:17:42,367 --> 00:17:44,300
It's gonna kinda look
547
00:17:44,300 --> 00:17:46,266
like a residential home.
548
00:17:46,266 --> 00:17:47,700
-Honestly, like headquarters.
-Sure.
549
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:50,100
Like it's commercial
but it has a residential vibe.
550
00:17:50,100 --> 00:17:51,266
And then when you come in,
551
00:17:51,266 --> 00:17:53,500
to your immediate left will
be the bridal suite,
552
00:17:53,500 --> 00:17:55,934
the charming fireplace,
and tons of windows.
553
00:17:56,700 --> 00:17:58,300
Brides can get ready...
554
00:17:58,300 --> 00:17:59,767
-You can rent that out, right?
-[Mina] Mimosas...
555
00:17:59,767 --> 00:18:01,467
-Is that the dance? Uh-huh.
-Yeah.
556
00:18:01,467 --> 00:18:02,967
[narrator] The next space
on the main floor
557
00:18:02,967 --> 00:18:04,100
will be the OVA Suite.
558
00:18:04,100 --> 00:18:05,900
For Alysse
and her business partner
559
00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:07,567
will each have
a chair in there.
560
00:18:07,567 --> 00:18:09,367
[Mina] Unfortunately,
due to city code,
561
00:18:09,367 --> 00:18:11,467
we won't be adding
another window in there
562
00:18:11,467 --> 00:18:13,266
like I had hoped,
but it's still plenty
563
00:18:13,266 --> 00:18:15,767
of natural light coming in
from the French doors.
564
00:18:15,767 --> 00:18:17,667
[narrator] Then back here,
Alysse wants
a kitchen
565
00:18:17,667 --> 00:18:18,967
to serve not only her guests,
566
00:18:18,967 --> 00:18:20,266
but people who come up
from the street
567
00:18:20,266 --> 00:18:21,800
to this little
coffee bar area.
568
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,266
She originally just wanted
a big serving window
569
00:18:24,266 --> 00:18:26,700
but asked to change it to
a big floor-to-ceiling
570
00:18:26,700 --> 00:18:29,100
garage door to make it
even more open and airy.
571
00:18:29,100 --> 00:18:30,266
[Cory] Yeah.
572
00:18:30,266 --> 00:18:31,467
[narrator]
Then in this back area,
573
00:18:31,467 --> 00:18:32,767
it'll basically be
the hair salon
574
00:18:32,767 --> 00:18:34,967
with wash bowls
and salon chairs.
575
00:18:34,967 --> 00:18:37,066
There's gonna be like
little hair-washing stations
back there.
576
00:18:37,066 --> 00:18:38,467
[Mina] And we're gonna run
water lines
577
00:18:38,467 --> 00:18:39,967
for them hair washing bowls,
578
00:18:39,967 --> 00:18:41,667
-I think, over there.
-That's fantastic.
579
00:18:41,667 --> 00:18:43,467
And then upstairs,
we'll have five different
580
00:18:43,467 --> 00:18:44,967
suites up there
that Alysse has already
581
00:18:44,967 --> 00:18:47,400
rented out to other
businesses.
582
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,066
So these are individual trades
that can take out,
583
00:18:50,066 --> 00:18:51,500
-uh, a little of this...
-[Mina] Yeah, a masseuse...
584
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:54,700
-pieces on here.
-uh, you know, an injector,
585
00:18:54,700 --> 00:18:56,166
-kind of whatever.
-An injector.
586
00:18:56,166 --> 00:18:57,200
[Mina]
Have you ever got Botox?
587
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:58,400
No, I don't need that.
588
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,900
-This stays--
-Go like this... You do.
589
00:19:00,900 --> 00:19:03,166
You could... You could rest
a quarter in those wrinkles.
590
00:19:03,166 --> 00:19:04,266
[Cory] It's because of you.
591
00:19:04,266 --> 00:19:05,367
[laughter]
592
00:19:05,367 --> 00:19:06,467
You make me age.
593
00:19:06,467 --> 00:19:08,000
This is fantastic though.
594
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,000
A lot of income-producing
properties.
595
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,266
All right.
596
00:19:11,266 --> 00:19:12,600
-Get out of here.
-[Cory] All right.
597
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:13,867
Lot to unpack here.
598
00:19:13,867 --> 00:19:14,767

606
00:19:26,100 --> 00:19:28,867
to get Alysse
into her new studio.
607
00:19:28,867 --> 00:19:30,800
Outside, Mom met with Alysse
to go over
608
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,700
what she'd like to do
with her landscaping.
609
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:34,900
I think the building
is gonna speak for itself.
610
00:19:34,900 --> 00:19:36,900
I think simplicity
will be good.
611
00:19:36,900 --> 00:19:38,900
[Karen] Okay.
With the Japanese maple...
612
00:19:38,900 --> 00:19:40,467
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-you would have just one
613
00:19:40,467 --> 00:19:42,467
unified theme across the front
614
00:19:42,467 --> 00:19:45,200
so it would look super simple,
615
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,467
-super clean.
-Okay.
616
00:19:46,467 --> 00:19:48,100
-Perfect.
-[Karen] Okay.
617
00:19:48,100 --> 00:19:50,000
[narrator] And inside, windows
are being installed...
618
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,767
[drill whirring]
619
00:19:51,767 --> 00:19:53,166
[narrator]
including our big garage door
620
00:19:53,166 --> 00:19:54,567
that will serve
the coffee shop patrons
621
00:19:54,567 --> 00:19:55,700
walking up from the street.
622
00:19:55,700 --> 00:19:57,867
Wow,
look at all this progress.
623
00:19:57,867 --> 00:19:59,266
This is fantastic.
624
00:19:59,266 --> 00:20:00,867
[narrator] So today,
Cory and I are meeting
625
00:20:00,867 --> 00:20:02,667
with our architects, Todd
and Joanna at the check in.
626
00:20:02,667 --> 00:20:05,266
Isn't it kinda to see it
all opened up now...
627
00:20:05,266 --> 00:20:06,767
-Yes.
-and seeing all the new
framing go in?
628
00:20:06,767 --> 00:20:07,800
This is great.
629
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,166
So the one thing that's
happened since last week
630
00:20:10,166 --> 00:20:13,266
is that the Marion County
Health Inspector
631
00:20:13,266 --> 00:20:16,200
came out here to take
a look at the floor plan.
632
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:17,567
-Uh-huh.
-[Cory] Oh, okay.
633
00:20:17,567 --> 00:20:19,200
The main thing that came up
634
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,400
was that the inspector,
635
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:22,967
because there was, like,
636
00:20:22,967 --> 00:20:24,500
beverages being
prepared here...
637
00:20:24,500 --> 00:20:25,567
Oh, boy.
638
00:20:25,567 --> 00:20:28,900
they wanted
the whole kitchen walled off.
639
00:20:28,900 --> 00:20:30,600
-[Mina] Uh-uh.
-Yeah. Right?
640
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,867
-[laughs] Okay.
-[Todd] So...
641
00:20:37,467 --> 00:20:39,100
[upbeat music playing]
642
00:20:39,100 --> 00:20:41,367
So the one thing that's
happened since last week
643
00:20:41,367 --> 00:20:44,367
is that the Marion County
Health Inspector
644
00:20:44,367 --> 00:20:47,300
came out here to take a look
at the floor plan.
645
00:20:47,300 --> 00:20:48,367
-Uh-huh.
-[Cory] Oh, okay.
646
00:20:48,367 --> 00:20:51,000
Because there was,
like, beverages
647
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,467
-being prepared here...
-Oh, boy.
648
00:20:52,467 --> 00:20:55,667
they wanted the whole kitchen
walled off.
649
00:20:55,667 --> 00:20:57,900
[laughs] Okay.
650
00:20:57,900 --> 00:21:00,667
When you add any kind
of food or beverage service,
651
00:21:00,667 --> 00:21:02,967
it complicates stuff,
even if it's not booze.
652
00:21:02,967 --> 00:21:04,400
The Health Department
is now involved
653
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,700
because you're serving
other people.
654
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:09,000
It just immediately
complicates things.
655
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,266
So we threw out the idea
that instead of a wall,
656
00:21:12,266 --> 00:21:14,900
why don't we put a rail up,
right?
657
00:21:14,900 --> 00:21:17,066
Because we finally got
to the root of the issue
658
00:21:17,066 --> 00:21:20,667
was they didn't want people
walking through the kitchen...
659
00:21:20,667 --> 00:21:21,767
Through a prep space.
660
00:21:21,767 --> 00:21:22,700
[Todd] Yeah. Exactly. Right?
661
00:21:22,700 --> 00:21:25,000
So the thought
is maybe do a rail...
662
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,567
-I love the idea.
-like at an angle.
663
00:21:26,567 --> 00:21:28,367
And I think
you're probably looking
664
00:21:28,367 --> 00:21:30,367
at an extra minimum $10,000.
665
00:21:30,367 --> 00:21:31,767
-Yeah.
-[Mina] Whereas if we say,
666
00:21:31,767 --> 00:21:33,300
"Okay, we're not gonna do
coffee service."
667
00:21:33,300 --> 00:21:35,600
Can... Do we just get to go
back to the regular kitchen?
668
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:36,767
Can this stay as is?
669
00:21:36,767 --> 00:21:38,100
Yeah. If we're not doing
670
00:21:38,100 --> 00:21:39,867
food service out here anymore,
671
00:21:39,867 --> 00:21:41,000
then you can, you know,
672
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:41,867
-do whatever you want...
-Leave it as is.
673
00:21:41,867 --> 00:21:42,767
-Okay.
-with the opening.
674
00:21:42,767 --> 00:21:44,266
[Mina]
I wanted to do this project
675
00:21:44,266 --> 00:21:46,467
so I could use my expertise
to help Alysse navigate
676
00:21:46,467 --> 00:21:47,800
these kinds of decisions
677
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,300
and ultimately help her
grow her business,
678
00:21:49,300 --> 00:21:51,266
but what's next is totally
679
00:21:51,266 --> 00:21:53,567
up to the decision
Alysse makes.
680
00:21:53,567 --> 00:21:57,266
She decides to roll with this,
like, bigger beast of a plan.
681
00:21:57,266 --> 00:21:59,500
She's probably looking at
at least three more weeks
682
00:21:59,500 --> 00:22:01,166
before she can insulate
and drywall.
683
00:22:01,166 --> 00:22:03,000
As it will affect us next up
once we start
684
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,667
getting into drywall
and finishes.
685
00:22:04,667 --> 00:22:06,166
-Oh, boy...
-Let's get outta here.

691
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,567
After meeting with Alysse,
692
00:22:16,567 --> 00:22:18,200
she decided that she did want
to move forward
693
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:19,567
with a coffee bar.
694
00:22:19,567 --> 00:22:21,567
So, some adjustments
just needed to be made
695
00:22:21,567 --> 00:22:23,900
to be able to pass
the health inspection.
696
00:22:23,900 --> 00:22:26,367
So... Good. We're good to go.
697
00:22:26,367 --> 00:22:27,867
[narrator]
We are in our ninth week
698
00:22:27,867 --> 00:22:29,367
of this sixteen-week
renovation
699
00:22:29,367 --> 00:22:30,367
and now that
we're finished framing
700
00:22:30,367 --> 00:22:32,000
and passed our inspections,
701
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,100
we began putting up
the drywall downstairs
702
00:22:34,100 --> 00:22:35,567
and upstairs
where Alysse's tenants
703
00:22:35,567 --> 00:22:36,767
will have
their own businesses.
704
00:22:36,767 --> 00:22:38,800
This is already
such a transformation.
705
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,066
-[Mina] Yes.
-Whoa.
706
00:22:40,066 --> 00:22:41,166
Now that we're drywalling,
707
00:22:41,166 --> 00:22:42,800
it's a good time for MJ and I
to meet with Alysse
708
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,467
to figure out
our design elements.
709
00:22:44,467 --> 00:22:46,900
So, super excited
because I saw that
710
00:22:46,900 --> 00:22:48,567
you have a couple samples
that looks exactly
711
00:22:48,567 --> 00:22:49,667
like our sample.
712
00:22:49,667 --> 00:22:50,767
-[Alysse] Oh, really?
-[MJ] Yup.
713
00:22:50,767 --> 00:22:51,667
-[Mina] Yeah.
-[Alysse] Wow.
714
00:22:51,667 --> 00:22:53,467
-They might be the same.
-[Mina] Yeah.
715
00:22:53,467 --> 00:22:55,300
Depending how much color
you want.
716
00:22:55,300 --> 00:22:56,367
Either of those are beautiful.
717
00:22:56,367 --> 00:22:57,133
Yeah.
718
00:22:57,133 --> 00:22:58,567
It was definitely
some extra steps,
719
00:22:58,567 --> 00:23:00,400
definitely some extra money,
but this kitchen concept
720
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,667
is something that Alysse felt
really strongly about.
721
00:23:02,667 --> 00:23:03,967
[narrator] So we're doing that
722
00:23:03,967 --> 00:23:05,266
and now we just gotta
make it cute.
723
00:23:05,266 --> 00:23:06,867
You don't have to do
a backsplash,
724
00:23:06,867 --> 00:23:10,767
but I feel like this is
a really good opportunity.
725
00:23:10,767 --> 00:23:12,500
-[Alysse] Yes.
-[MJ] Boom.
726
00:23:12,500 --> 00:23:13,300
[Alysse] Oh.
727
00:23:13,300 --> 00:23:14,166
[Mina] And so next to this,
728
00:23:14,166 --> 00:23:15,567
do you see
how it pulls more brown?
729
00:23:15,567 --> 00:23:16,467
[Alysse] Yes.
730
00:23:16,467 --> 00:23:18,266
If you want it
to pull more pink, truffle
731
00:23:18,266 --> 00:23:19,000
is a really
pretty wall color.
732
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,266
[MJ] White truffle.
733
00:23:20,266 --> 00:23:21,266
[Alysse] Oh yeah,
that's pretty.
734
00:23:21,266 --> 00:23:22,066
I like it.
735
00:23:22,066 --> 00:23:24,000
If you wanna go
more saturated,
736
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,367
glamorous, beautiful.
737
00:23:26,367 --> 00:23:28,300
Alysse is going
for a kind of soft,
738
00:23:28,300 --> 00:23:29,867
feminine look
throughout the whole space,
739
00:23:29,867 --> 00:23:31,367
so we're gonna use
a lot of blush pink,
740
00:23:31,367 --> 00:23:33,667
some warmer whites,
really delicate fixtures,
741
00:23:33,667 --> 00:23:36,000
and then little tiny pops
of gold kind of throughout.
742
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,200
I think the pops of pattern
and quirkiness
743
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,900
will really make it feel like
a high-end experience.
744
00:23:40,900 --> 00:23:42,467
Do you have a sample
of your flooring here?
745
00:23:42,467 --> 00:23:43,467
Yeah. It's right here.
746
00:23:43,467 --> 00:23:46,567
[Mina] So if we've got this,
this...
747
00:23:46,567 --> 00:23:47,567
[Alysse] That's really pretty.
748
00:23:47,567 --> 00:23:49,567
And then, I brought
a bunch of the samples
749
00:23:49,567 --> 00:23:50,900
of the wallpaper we have.
750
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:52,867
Let's look at some options
for your workspace.
751
00:23:52,867 --> 00:23:54,166
I like this
because it reminds me
752
00:23:54,166 --> 00:23:55,000
of, like, Japanese--
753
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,000
[Mina]
Like the cherry blossom?
754
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,600
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-Oh, and I like this one too.
755
00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,266
Okay. Let's go in here.
756
00:23:59,266 --> 00:24:01,000
We're going with this guy
coming on the back wall.
757
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,467
How is this gonna be set up?
758
00:24:02,467 --> 00:24:03,533
This is the OVA Suite.
759
00:24:03,533 --> 00:24:05,367
This will be my suite where
I'll be working out of it
760
00:24:05,367 --> 00:24:06,767
and my business partner
will be working out of it.
761
00:24:06,767 --> 00:24:08,166
We do eyelash extensions
762
00:24:08,166 --> 00:24:09,867
and microblading
and makeup, so...
763
00:24:09,867 --> 00:24:11,300
So we pretty much need
two chairs.
764
00:24:11,300 --> 00:24:13,667
Two chairs and probably
like a small, little vanity.
765
00:24:13,667 --> 00:24:16,100
[MJ] Why am I like ready
to commit to this pattern?
766
00:24:16,100 --> 00:24:17,367
It's really cute.
767
00:24:17,367 --> 00:24:18,400
[MJ] I kind of love it.
768
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,467
-[Alysse] Yeah.
-[Mina] Okay.
769
00:24:19,467 --> 00:24:21,000
-Do you love it?
-I love it.
770
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,567
Talking about the design
with Mina and MJ
771
00:24:23,567 --> 00:24:24,667
is just so exciting.
772
00:24:24,667 --> 00:24:26,200
I've dreamt about this
for so long.
773
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,667
Uh, just going
from my living room
774
00:24:28,667 --> 00:24:30,467
to a commercial space
775
00:24:30,467 --> 00:24:32,567
where my business
and other businesses
776
00:24:32,567 --> 00:24:35,000
are gonna be able to work out
of there is just so surreal
777
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,367
and I just can't believe
it's gonna come to life.
778
00:24:37,367 --> 00:24:38,667
-Home stretch.
-[Alysse laughs]
779
00:24:38,667 --> 00:24:39,767

790
00:24:56,166 --> 00:24:57,500
of my favorite places
on earth.
791
00:24:57,500 --> 00:25:00,800
I have brought Alysse
to meet myself, MJ, and Austin
792
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,667
at our countertop guy's yard.
793
00:25:03,667 --> 00:25:06,266
And we are specifically
looking in the remnant section
794
00:25:06,266 --> 00:25:08,100
because we got to find
a small countertop
795
00:25:08,100 --> 00:25:10,367
for the makeup bar
and Alysse's OVA Suite.
796
00:25:10,367 --> 00:25:12,567
The nice thing is none of this
is super expensive,
797
00:25:12,567 --> 00:25:15,667
and what you need is,
you know, eight-ish inches,
798
00:25:15,667 --> 00:25:17,567
ten inches maybe
for the makeup bar.
799
00:25:17,567 --> 00:25:19,400
This is where we get
funky town.
800
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,867
-Funky town.
-I'm down for funky town.
801
00:25:20,867 --> 00:25:23,367
Because you can get
a nice remnant
802
00:25:23,367 --> 00:25:24,867
at a huge discount.
803
00:25:24,867 --> 00:25:26,767
It's essentially
the rock orphanage.
804
00:25:26,767 --> 00:25:29,567
These pieces,
while super valuable
805
00:25:29,567 --> 00:25:31,266
and incredibly cool,
806
00:25:31,266 --> 00:25:33,367
have just been left
over from the cuts
807
00:25:33,367 --> 00:25:34,367
of another stone.
808
00:25:34,367 --> 00:25:36,667
So if someone wants
an L-shaped kitchen,
809
00:25:36,667 --> 00:25:38,200
where's the middle of the L?
810
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,867
Because it's all cut
in giant rectangles.
811
00:25:40,867 --> 00:25:42,800

812

[narrator] This is week 13
of our 16-week renovation
824
00:26:06,567 --> 00:26:09,166
and we're finishing
our board and batten siding.
825
00:26:09,166 --> 00:26:11,500
Although the exterior
was cute and charming,
826
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:13,367
Alysse has a very
modern business
827
00:26:13,367 --> 00:26:17,266
and the exterior needed
a clean and modern facade.
828
00:26:17,266 --> 00:26:19,600
Inside we chose to add in
some arch doorways
829
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,266
to make the space feel
more unique and beautiful.
830
00:26:22,266 --> 00:26:25,000
Downstairs we have a light,
beige-y pink paint
831
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,467
for the soft feminine vibe.
832
00:26:26,467 --> 00:26:28,266
While upstairs in the suites
we went a tad darker
833
00:26:28,266 --> 00:26:30,200
so it feels more cozy
and private.
834
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,233
And we began installing
our light wood floors.
835
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,266
And in the backyard,
we started prepping
836
00:26:36,266 --> 00:26:37,867
for the parking lot
and landscaping.
837
00:26:37,867 --> 00:26:39,967
-Good morning.
-[Tad] It's good seeing you.
838
00:26:39,967 --> 00:26:41,000
Good to see you.
839
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,500
[Tad] So tell me
what you got going on.
840
00:26:42,500 --> 00:26:44,600
[Mina] But there's still one
major part of the exterior
841
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,367
that Alysse needs to meet
with Tad and Austin
842
00:26:46,367 --> 00:26:47,100
to discuss.
843
00:26:47,100 --> 00:26:48,467
I'd love to have
a beautiful deck
844
00:26:48,467 --> 00:26:50,266
for the businesses inside
to come out
845
00:26:50,266 --> 00:26:52,500
and have kind
of a little outdoor space,
846
00:26:52,500 --> 00:26:55,600
but it also needs
to have some ADA compliancy
847
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,400
and it's just down to the wire
848
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:58,567
and we need to get
some things done.
849
00:26:58,567 --> 00:26:59,667
-Yeah.
-And we're hoping
850
00:26:59,667 --> 00:27:02,000
that you guys
could help us out.
851
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:03,567
I've been starting
my own construction company
852
00:27:03,567 --> 00:27:05,166
outside of two chicks lately
853
00:27:05,166 --> 00:27:07,667
and I'm looking for more
projects to spearhead.
854
00:27:07,667 --> 00:27:09,867
Austin is helping me out now.
855
00:27:09,867 --> 00:27:12,867
And Mina reached out to us
wanting a killer deck build
856
00:27:12,867 --> 00:27:14,667
and we saw this
as an opportunity
857
00:27:14,667 --> 00:27:17,767
to continue to expand
and grow the business.
858
00:27:17,767 --> 00:27:19,266
So what kind of deck
are you thinking?
859
00:27:19,266 --> 00:27:21,767
I would love
more of a wood color,
860
00:27:21,767 --> 00:27:23,166
like a nice stain,
861
00:27:23,166 --> 00:27:24,900
but I do want something
to last a little bit.
862
00:27:24,900 --> 00:27:27,667
-A composite probably.
-Yeah, probably a composite.
863
00:27:27,667 --> 00:27:28,667
-That's like a fiber...
-[Alysse] Okay.
864
00:27:28,667 --> 00:27:30,066
cement material.
865
00:27:30,066 --> 00:27:32,367
It doesn't rot.
It doesn't fade.
866
00:27:32,367 --> 00:27:33,500
It's a lot stronger.
867
00:27:33,500 --> 00:27:35,800
So, if we go
with an eight-foot deck
868
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,266
-with the ADA ramp...
-[Alysse] Okay.
869
00:27:37,266 --> 00:27:39,266
for a wheelchair
or something like that,
870
00:27:39,266 --> 00:27:43,400
so that's gonna come out
about thirteen feet.
871
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,867
That's where we're gonna
come out with our ramp.
872
00:27:45,867 --> 00:27:47,600
And also we're gonna have
to get a fabricator
873
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,166
to make the handrail.
874
00:27:49,166 --> 00:27:51,300
That's how
you're ADA compliant.
875
00:27:51,300 --> 00:27:52,667
What kind of time crunch
are you on?
876
00:27:52,667 --> 00:27:54,000
Maybe a few weeks? [laughs]
877
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,000
-Okay. Understood.
-I'm really sticking a T.
878
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,967
Yeah. The thing
that's gonna take the longest
879
00:27:57,967 --> 00:27:59,100
is our handrail.
880
00:27:59,100 --> 00:28:01,667
So right now
that's four to six weeks.
881
00:28:01,667 --> 00:28:02,700
Ooh.
882
00:28:02,700 --> 00:28:04,166
-Okay.
-[Tad] So...
883
00:28:04,166 --> 00:28:06,166
[Alysse]
Maybe we need to adjust.
884
00:28:07,567 --> 00:28:09,600
[dramatic music playing]
885
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,066
The thing that's gonna take
the longest
886
00:28:11,066 --> 00:28:12,667
is our handrail.
887
00:28:12,667 --> 00:28:14,834
So right now
that's four to six weeks.
888
00:28:15,567 --> 00:28:16,533
Ooh.
889
00:28:17,900 --> 00:28:19,467
You know, we set a deadline,
890
00:28:19,467 --> 00:28:20,967
and so I don't want it
to move.
891
00:28:20,967 --> 00:28:22,767
Yeah. No, totally understand.
892
00:28:22,767 --> 00:28:24,066
When he said
four to six weeks,
893
00:28:24,066 --> 00:28:26,100
I kinda had a little
freak-out moment inside.
894
00:28:26,100 --> 00:28:28,166
It's just
awkward conversations
895
00:28:28,166 --> 00:28:31,700
to have with your tenants
of, "We gotta move it again."
896
00:28:31,700 --> 00:28:33,767
And you know you're doing
everything that you can
897
00:28:33,767 --> 00:28:36,000
to do on your end,
but there's just like
898
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,367
so many things
out of your control.
899
00:28:37,367 --> 00:28:38,867
So I feel like
a lot of pressure
900
00:28:38,867 --> 00:28:40,100
on my shoulders with that.
901
00:28:40,100 --> 00:28:42,567
If we put up
a temporary rail for now...
902
00:28:42,567 --> 00:28:43,467
-[Alysse] Yes.
-[Tad] that'll allow you
903
00:28:43,467 --> 00:28:44,767
to operate your business
904
00:28:44,767 --> 00:28:47,900
and I will tell my guy
to rush his handrail ASAP.
905
00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:49,567
And he might get it done,
906
00:28:49,567 --> 00:28:50,367
-but...
-Yeah.
907
00:28:50,367 --> 00:28:51,467
[Tad] plan on the four
to six.
908
00:28:51,467 --> 00:28:52,500
-Okay.
-[Tad] So...
909
00:28:52,500 --> 00:28:53,600
Expect for the worst,
but I appreciate that.
910
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:54,667

Tad is getting going
on Alysse's back deck.
919
00:29:10,867 --> 00:29:12,567
Inside, the flooring
is going down
920
00:29:12,567 --> 00:29:15,367
and Alysse's makeup
countertop is installed.
921
00:29:15,367 --> 00:29:16,867
Also, the rest
of our countertops
922
00:29:16,867 --> 00:29:18,300
just arrived,
so we're going to get that
923
00:29:18,300 --> 00:29:19,967
going on the install
along with tiling
924
00:29:19,967 --> 00:29:21,266
the kitchen and fireplace.
925
00:29:21,266 --> 00:29:24,100
[upbeat music playing]
926
00:29:24,100 --> 00:29:26,900
Is that as fast as it goes?
927
00:29:26,900 --> 00:29:27,967
Yeah.
928
00:29:27,967 --> 00:29:29,300
[narrator] And for landscaping
in the front,
929
00:29:29,300 --> 00:29:31,567
Mom and the boys are bringing
out the big guns.
930
00:29:31,567 --> 00:29:32,400
[Karen] Okay, team.
931
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,367
So the plan
is to do a mass planting
932
00:29:35,367 --> 00:29:38,400
that echoes the color
of the Japanese maple
933
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,100
and make it look sort
of simple and clean for her.
934
00:29:41,100 --> 00:29:43,567
Now, it is not here,
which is sad
935
00:29:43,567 --> 00:29:45,100
because it informs
the whole landscape,
936
00:29:45,100 --> 00:29:47,266
but there's a sign
that goes right here.
937
00:29:47,266 --> 00:29:49,567
So just imagine
the sign is here,
938
00:29:49,567 --> 00:29:50,467
and it says OVA.
939
00:29:50,467 --> 00:29:51,567
It's really cool.
940
00:29:51,567 --> 00:29:53,767
Last week, we met
with Alysse and Jeremy,
941
00:29:53,767 --> 00:29:55,467
a local artist and sign maker
942
00:29:55,467 --> 00:29:57,767
to help design
the sign for her business.
943
00:29:57,767 --> 00:29:59,100
[Alysse] Yeah, I love this.
944
00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:00,700
[Karen] This gives me
some landscaping ideas.
945
00:30:00,700 --> 00:30:01,567
-Yeah.
-[Karen] Right?
946
00:30:01,567 --> 00:30:02,567
-Yup.
-[Karen] Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm.
947
00:30:02,567 --> 00:30:04,367
The sign will be made
out of metal slats
948
00:30:04,367 --> 00:30:06,166
that have been
purposely rusted.
949
00:30:06,166 --> 00:30:08,767
So we're gonna play off that
rust color in the landscape.
950
00:30:08,767 --> 00:30:10,700
This is the way to work,
right?
951
00:30:10,700 --> 00:30:11,867
Heavy equipment?
952
00:30:11,867 --> 00:30:14,367
The main thing to achieve
in this landscaping
953
00:30:14,367 --> 00:30:17,200
is removing shrubbery
that Alysse doesn't like.
954
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,433
Yeah, got that
one nice and clean.
955
00:30:23,867 --> 00:30:25,667
[Austin] So how much,
uh, hole digging
956
00:30:25,667 --> 00:30:27,266
will there actually be then?
957
00:30:27,266 --> 00:30:29,266
-Thirty holes.
-Oh.
958
00:30:29,266 --> 00:30:30,767
[Austin] Thirty holes?
959
00:30:30,767 --> 00:30:32,567
-Let's come talk about this.
-Yeah.
960
00:30:32,567 --> 00:30:35,266
[Karen] So we're gonna do
a mass planting
961
00:30:35,266 --> 00:30:38,000
of these heuchera, heuchera.
962
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,767
It's Latin.
No one knows how to say it.
963
00:30:39,767 --> 00:30:40,800
Huarache.
964
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,867
[Karen] And we're just
gonna do a mass here.
965
00:30:42,867 --> 00:30:45,767
We landed on something
that is clean
966
00:30:45,767 --> 00:30:49,000
and it's going to echo
the color of the sign.
967
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,667
Because the sign
is like a rusted iron
968
00:30:51,667 --> 00:30:53,800
and we have a Japanese maple
that's staying.
969
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,800
So everything else
is a version
970
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,266
of Japanese maple color,
971
00:30:57,266 --> 00:30:58,967
which is a deep red.
972
00:30:58,967 --> 00:31:01,100
We're gonna paint these black
973
00:31:01,100 --> 00:31:03,166
and we're gonna put
some plants in them.
974
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,367
That's nice. Oh, that's nice.
975
00:31:08,367 --> 00:31:09,567
Okay, kids.
976
00:31:09,567 --> 00:31:12,667
What's the last thing we do
after we do a really nice job?

00:31:12,667 --> 00:31:14,700
-[MJ] Cocktails.
-Yes!
978
00:31:14,700 --> 00:31:15,867
First, we stand back
979
00:31:15,867 --> 00:31:17,100
and we pat ourselves
on the back
980
00:31:17,100 --> 00:31:18,266
for how good it looks.
981
00:31:18,266 --> 00:31:19,100
I think it looks great.
982
00:31:19,100 --> 00:31:20,600
I can't wait
for the sign to go in.
983
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:21,367

[narrator] In the back,
Tad knocked out the back deck
1000
00:31:49,967 --> 00:31:52,000
in just a few days
and he called in some favors.
1001
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,567
And now
the permanent handrail
1002
00:31:53,567 --> 00:31:55,433
is being installed this week.

Inside, the gorgeous
flamingo wallpaper
1004
00:32:01,367 --> 00:32:03,967
is going up
in Alysse's OVA Suite.
1005
00:32:03,967 --> 00:32:05,967
And Mom has an idea
to repurpose
1006
00:32:05,967 --> 00:32:07,500
one of the bushes
they removed
1007
00:32:07,500 --> 00:32:09,000
from the front
of the building.
1008
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,867
So I cut off the roots,
1009
00:32:10,867 --> 00:32:13,166
and I cleaned up
all the little twiggy stuff,
1010
00:32:13,166 --> 00:32:15,700
and I put it
on a little pine round.
1011
00:32:15,700 --> 00:32:17,467
Nothing was saved during demo.
1012
00:32:17,467 --> 00:32:19,967
So I rescued a bush
during landscaping
1013
00:32:19,967 --> 00:32:21,500
to put back in the house.
1014
00:32:21,500 --> 00:32:24,700
And I see a smorgasbord
of jewelry pieces,
1015
00:32:24,700 --> 00:32:25,967
other plant pieces.
1016
00:32:25,967 --> 00:32:27,800
Popsicle sticks
because you never know.
1017
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,000
That is a doorknob from Paris.
1018
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,767
-Oh, this is a doorknob?
-[Karen] These cool things.
1019
00:32:32,767 --> 00:32:33,967
[Austin] Is this a hair clip?
1020
00:32:33,967 --> 00:32:35,000
No.
1021
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,400
Who doesn't have
rusty dragonflies?
1022
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,500
I think to myself quickly that
1023
00:32:40,500 --> 00:32:42,266
we're gonna do something
that's gonna get out of hand.
1024
00:32:42,266 --> 00:32:43,967
So they all have
a little hook on them.
1025
00:32:48,367 --> 00:32:49,967
Okay. You wanna step back.

00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:54,867
Yeah, get a haircut.

00:32:54,867 --> 00:32:57,800
Does this say "Tip extra"?
1029
00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,200
I like it.
1030
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:00,700
[upbeat music playing]
1031
00:33:00,700 --> 00:33:01,800
[Karen] How did we end up...
1032
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,467
We were looking at crystals
and then that was it?
1033
00:33:03,467 --> 00:33:04,467
[Austin] Yeah.
1034
00:33:04,467 --> 00:33:05,767
Oh, I was just thinking
about, like,
1035
00:33:05,767 --> 00:33:07,700
how I think
it would be really funny
1036
00:33:07,700 --> 00:33:08,567
if it was just like
1037
00:33:08,567 --> 00:33:10,200
a blinged out piece
of jewelry.
1038
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,600
We really didn't add
a whole lot.
1039
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,166
-Uh-uh.
-But I think
it was the perfect amount.
1040
00:33:13,166 --> 00:33:14,767
[Karen] Yes.
1041
00:33:14,767 --> 00:33:16,300
I like it.
1042
00:33:16,300 --> 00:33:18,667
I say we walk away.
1043
00:33:18,667 --> 00:33:19,667
Nice work.
1044
00:33:19,667 --> 00:33:20,567
Let's get out of here.
1045
00:33:20,567 --> 00:33:23,667
[upbeat music playing]
1046
00:33:29,967 --> 00:33:31,767
[Mina] Wedding dress.
1047
00:33:31,767 --> 00:33:35,233
[MJ] Yes. Okay.
Wow, that one's really cute.
1048
00:33:36,767 --> 00:33:38,667
[narrator]
We're finally done with OVA
1049
00:33:38,667 --> 00:33:40,266
and getting it prettied up
and ready to show
1050
00:33:40,266 --> 00:33:41,567
for Alysse tomorrow.
1051
00:33:41,567 --> 00:33:43,300
The countertop color is...
1052
00:33:43,300 --> 00:33:46,367
So good.
It couldn't be more perfect.
1053
00:33:46,367 --> 00:33:47,867
I love it.
1054
00:33:47,867 --> 00:33:49,000
[narrator]
The interior of this house
1055
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,300
was pretty boring
1056
00:33:50,300 --> 00:33:52,867
and now it's infused
with personality.
1057
00:33:52,867 --> 00:33:54,667
Each room has a soft,
feminine glamor
1058
00:33:54,667 --> 00:33:55,900
that'll be perfect for Alysse
1059
00:33:55,900 --> 00:33:56,900
and the other
beauty businesses

00:33:56,900 --> 00:33:58,934

1061
00:33:59,867 --> 00:34:01,000
All right.
1062
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,367
[MJ] So cute.
1063
00:34:02,367 --> 00:34:03,867

Sunshine.
1069
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:16,000
Good morning.
How are you, guys?
1070
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,600
-Are you so excited?
-Yes.
1071
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,734
[Karen] Look at your sign.
1072
00:34:20,467 --> 00:34:22,567
-Look how perfect--
-Oh, my gosh.

00:34:31,567 --> 00:34:32,867
This is amazing.
1075
00:34:32,867 --> 00:34:34,200
-It feels like you now.
-[Alysse] Absolutely.
1076
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,467
[Mina] Like there was so much
potential to make it you.
1077
00:34:37,467 --> 00:34:40,000
But now, the landscaping,
the paint colors,
1078
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,400
the sign, the door,
the black and...
1079
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:43,667
-I mean it all...
-[Karen] [indistinct]
with you.
1080
00:34:43,667 --> 00:34:44,900
[Mina] fits together.
So we're...
1081
00:34:44,900 --> 00:34:47,066
We ended up placing
that overhead door.
1082
00:34:47,066 --> 00:34:48,600
People will be walking out
this way.
1083
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:49,767
-Mmm-hmm.
-[Mina] And just wander up.
1084
00:34:49,767 --> 00:34:51,166
So I feel like
you're gonna get a lot
1085
00:34:51,166 --> 00:34:53,300
of traffic just from people
wandering by.
1086
00:34:53,300 --> 00:34:54,900
And you've got the couple
of bistro tables.
1087
00:34:54,900 --> 00:34:55,667
[Alysse] Yup.
1088
00:34:55,667 --> 00:34:57,000
[Mina]
It's gonna be very cute.
1089
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,867
The thing I'm excited about
is I finally understood.
1090
00:34:59,867 --> 00:35:01,266
When you said "clean,"
1091
00:35:01,266 --> 00:35:03,200
I think what you meant
was "uniform."
1092
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:04,266
-It's not busy.
-[Alysse] Not busy.
1093
00:35:04,266 --> 00:35:06,066
[Karen] Because you took
all the colors.
1094
00:35:06,066 --> 00:35:06,867
[Alysse] Yeah.
1095
00:35:06,867 --> 00:35:08,300
[Karen]
But the white unifies it
1096
00:35:08,300 --> 00:35:10,467
and makes it feel clean
and uniform.
1097
00:35:10,467 --> 00:35:12,867
The sign
with the Japanese maple
1098
00:35:12,867 --> 00:35:14,367
amongst the white
and the black.
1099
00:35:14,367 --> 00:35:15,500
I just love it.
1100
00:35:15,500 --> 00:35:18,634
[upbeat music playing]
1101
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,266
All right.
Do you wanna go inside?
1102
00:35:21,266 --> 00:35:24,767
-I do.
-Come on.

00:35:24,767 --> 00:35:28,066
[upbeat music playing]
1104
00:35:28,066 --> 00:35:30,066
There we go.
1105
00:35:31,100 --> 00:35:34,533
-Doesn't it feel serene?
-Oh, my gosh.

[upbeat music playing]
1110
00:35:53,767 --> 00:35:55,867
[Mina] So before
it was not any place.
1111
00:35:55,867 --> 00:35:58,166
-It's served its purpose.
-It did.
1112
00:35:58,166 --> 00:35:59,700
[Mina] But now
it's, like, beautiful.
1113
00:35:59,700 --> 00:36:02,433
You get so much natural light
from these windows.
1114
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,066
As you see as we go through,
1115
00:36:05,066 --> 00:36:06,300
you've got a couple little,
1116
00:36:06,300 --> 00:36:07,567
-like, sitting areas.
-Mmm-hmm.
1117
00:36:07,567 --> 00:36:09,867
So, it doesn't ever feel
like you have a waiting room.
1118
00:36:09,867 --> 00:36:10,967
[Alysse] Right.
1119
00:36:10,967 --> 00:36:12,967
[Mina] But they're options
if you are waiting.
1120
00:36:12,967 --> 00:36:14,266
I love how open it is.
1121
00:36:14,266 --> 00:36:16,266
And with the natural light
of the windows,
1122
00:36:16,266 --> 00:36:17,400
this space feels...
1123
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:18,467
[Mina]
It's a beautiful space now.
1124
00:36:18,467 --> 00:36:19,300
-[Alysse] really peaceful.
-[Mina] Mmm-hmm.
1125
00:36:19,300 --> 00:36:20,567
And I love that
this is the first spot
1126
00:36:20,567 --> 00:36:22,600
that people see and feel,
1127
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,066
-so that's amazing.
-So welcoming.
1128
00:36:24,066 --> 00:36:25,667
-I wanna see more.
-Let's go on.
1129
00:36:25,667 --> 00:36:28,767
[upbeat music playing]
1130
00:36:35,100 --> 00:36:38,100
And this space probably
had the most
1131
00:36:38,100 --> 00:36:39,967
changes throughout it.
1132
00:36:39,967 --> 00:36:43,066
[upbeat music playing]
1133
00:36:43,767 --> 00:36:44,967
Wow. [laughs]
1134
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,467
[Mina] You have so much
natural light.
1135
00:36:48,467 --> 00:36:50,100
You got a little bit
more seating out here.
1136
00:36:50,100 --> 00:36:52,567
I mean, I just love
how simple it looks right now.
1137
00:36:52,567 --> 00:36:53,867
And the tile
is just so pretty
1138
00:36:53,867 --> 00:36:55,166
because it reflects
off the lights
1139
00:36:55,166 --> 00:36:56,767
and it really does.
1140
00:36:56,767 --> 00:36:59,000
When we were digging out
the plants in the front,
1141
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:00,467
we pulled out a box wood.
1142
00:37:00,467 --> 00:37:02,166
So I took your box wood,
1143
00:37:02,166 --> 00:37:04,100
and I took it home
and I cut off the roots,
1144
00:37:04,100 --> 00:37:05,867
and Austin came over
1145
00:37:05,867 --> 00:37:07,266
and this is
what we came up with.
1146
00:37:07,266 --> 00:37:09,200
What?
Wait, that's from out there?
1147
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:10,266
Yeah, that's from out there.
1148
00:37:10,266 --> 00:37:11,867
Like we could have done
all kinds of things
1149
00:37:11,867 --> 00:37:13,867
and we just kept it
very understated.
1150
00:37:13,867 --> 00:37:15,800
[Mina laughing]
1151
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,567
[Alysse] This is understated?
1152
00:37:17,567 --> 00:37:19,066
This is understated for Mom.
1153
00:37:19,066 --> 00:37:21,000
And I will not be offended
if you say,
1154
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:21,967
"No, this can't stay here."
That's fine.
1155
00:37:21,967 --> 00:37:23,100
This is definitely
staying here.
1156
00:37:23,100 --> 00:37:25,133
Oh, okay.
I'm not everybody's flavor.
1157
00:37:26,367 --> 00:37:27,467
All Right. All right.
1158
00:37:27,467 --> 00:37:28,667
[Mina] But the space really
did turn out very cool.
1159
00:37:28,667 --> 00:37:30,367
And then when it's nice
1160
00:37:30,367 --> 00:37:32,200
and you have
the garage doors open.
1161
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,567
When it's a beautiful day
like today, you know,
1162
00:37:34,567 --> 00:37:36,000
you've got your barista
1163
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:36,867
-or you...
-[Karen] [indistinct]
1164
00:37:36,867 --> 00:37:38,400
behind the counter,
whoever it is.
1165
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:41,467
And this opens all the way up.
1166
00:37:41,467 --> 00:37:43,166
Okay. Missed the workout.
1167
00:37:43,166 --> 00:37:44,667
I feel like
this very much fits
1168
00:37:44,667 --> 00:37:45,967
with the vibe
of Fountain Square.
1169
00:37:45,967 --> 00:37:47,100
-Everyone likes to be...
-[Alysse] Yes.
1170
00:37:47,100 --> 00:37:48,467
Like, it's
an indoor-outdoor space.
1171
00:37:48,467 --> 00:37:51,467
It's a very easy,
small spot that, you know,
1172
00:37:51,467 --> 00:37:55,100
I would say anybody
who wants to serve coffee, tea
1173
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:56,867
just in like a very simple way
1174
00:37:56,867 --> 00:37:58,100
can just do
their little thing...
1175
00:37:58,100 --> 00:37:59,467
-[Mina] Pour over.
-right here.
1176
00:37:59,467 --> 00:38:02,200
Do you have vendors in mind?
Has anybody talked to you yet?
1177
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:03,667
We've got a few in mind,
1178
00:38:03,667 --> 00:38:05,700
but, you know,
it's getting there.
1179
00:38:05,700 --> 00:38:06,967
-Okay.
-I'm gonna pop around
1180
00:38:06,967 --> 00:38:09,467
and we'll go into
the bridal suite.
1181
00:38:09,467 --> 00:38:11,867
[upbeat music playing]
1182
00:38:11,867 --> 00:38:14,166
-This is your space where...
-Oh, my...
1183
00:38:14,166 --> 00:38:15,600
when you have a bridal party
1184
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,000
-all getting ready.
-Yay.
1185
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,100
[Karen] They can all
hang out together.
1186
00:38:19,100 --> 00:38:21,066
-They can fix their hair.
-[Alysse] Wow.
1187
00:38:21,066 --> 00:38:24,166
[upbeat music playing]
1188
00:38:26,467 --> 00:38:28,166
It is so stunning in here.
1189
00:38:28,166 --> 00:38:31,300
I love this, and the stations
for the hair...
1190
00:38:31,300 --> 00:38:33,367
and makeup artists coming.
1191
00:38:33,367 --> 00:38:34,900
And the couch, I love this.
1192
00:38:34,900 --> 00:38:36,100
[Mina] And you've got
just a little bit of like
1193
00:38:36,100 --> 00:38:38,100
the history and the charm
with the brick above...
1194
00:38:38,100 --> 00:38:39,100
-the beautiful...
-[Alysse] We love that.
1195
00:38:39,100 --> 00:38:41,667
-[Mina] mermaid tile.
-[Alysse] Yeah.
1196
00:38:41,667 --> 00:38:45,867
A little bit of a rustic feel
in a very glamorous room.
1197
00:38:45,867 --> 00:38:47,000
[Mina] So I love
that we've got
1198
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,100
this really kind of pearly,
it's like a mermaid.
1199
00:38:50,100 --> 00:38:51,300
[Alysse] Yeah.
I love that. Yeah.
1200
00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:53,600
We used it before
and it's my favorite.
1201
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:54,600
[Alysse] I love it.
This would be--
1202
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:55,867
[Mina] I think your brides,
1203
00:38:55,867 --> 00:38:57,266
I think anyone
that's in this space
1204
00:38:57,266 --> 00:38:58,767
is really gonna enjoy it.
1205
00:38:58,767 --> 00:39:02,000
And I love that you decided
to go with doors.
1206
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,000
[Alysse] You know,
it's functional.
1207
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,300
-It has a purpose of, like...
-[Mina] Yes.
1208
00:39:04,300 --> 00:39:05,967
giving privacy,
but then letting them
1209
00:39:05,967 --> 00:39:07,300
-be able to come in and...
-[Mina] Yes.
1210
00:39:07,300 --> 00:39:09,867
get their champagne and...
I love it.
1211
00:39:09,867 --> 00:39:11,266
-Okay.
-[Alysse] It's beautiful.
1212
00:39:11,266 --> 00:39:13,567
-Let's go see your space.
-[Alysse] Oh, my goodness.
1213
00:39:13,567 --> 00:39:16,266
[upbeat music playing]
1214
00:39:16,266 --> 00:39:17,266
Ta-da!
1215
00:39:17,266 --> 00:39:18,734
Oh, my God.
1216
00:39:26,166 --> 00:39:27,567
Your old sign looks
so good in here.
1217
00:39:27,567 --> 00:39:28,333
Oh, my God.
1218
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:31,967
At the old place
with the OVA sign,
1219
00:39:31,967 --> 00:39:33,767
it was just
a black background
1220
00:39:33,767 --> 00:39:35,400
and it just popped out
so much,
1221
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,100
which I liked, but I think--
1222
00:39:37,100 --> 00:39:39,100
-[Karen] It's a little more
subtle here.
-It's little bit more subtle.
1223
00:39:39,100 --> 00:39:41,200
And then we've got
the matching stone over here
1224
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,000
for your partner's
makeup area.
1225
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:43,867
[Alysse] Yeah.
1226
00:39:43,867 --> 00:39:46,834
[upbeat music playing]
1227
00:39:49,100 --> 00:39:50,200
[Karen] Is there a story
1228
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,100
behind the birds
on the wallpaper?
1229
00:39:52,100 --> 00:39:52,967
[Alysse]
No, we just like that. Yeah.
1230
00:39:52,967 --> 00:39:54,300
[Karen] No?
You just liked them?
1231
00:39:54,300 --> 00:39:55,166
[laughs] Look at you.
1232
00:39:55,166 --> 00:39:56,300
We're gonna see...
We're gonna see
1233
00:39:56,300 --> 00:39:57,367
if I could do eyebrows.
1234
00:39:57,367 --> 00:40:00,000
You know what?
I like this chandelier here.
1235
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,500
-This is a fantastic space.
-[Mina] All right.
1236
00:40:02,500 --> 00:40:04,567
-Onto the salon.
-[Alysse] Love it.
1237
00:40:04,567 --> 00:40:07,467
[upbeat music playing]
1238
00:40:07,467 --> 00:40:10,367
This space turned out so cool.
1239
00:40:10,367 --> 00:40:11,567
Whoa.
1240
00:40:11,567 --> 00:40:14,667
[dramatic music playing]
1241
00:40:20,300 --> 00:40:21,900
This is wild.
1242
00:40:21,900 --> 00:40:23,066
I know you wanted to make
1243
00:40:23,066 --> 00:40:24,867
a really big impact
in this space.
1244
00:40:24,867 --> 00:40:26,667
[Alysse] And I love it
and it is very dramatic,
1245
00:40:26,667 --> 00:40:28,967
but in such a great way.
1246
00:40:28,967 --> 00:40:30,100
And these are beautiful.
I mean...
1247
00:40:30,100 --> 00:40:31,266
These are so pretty.
1248
00:40:31,266 --> 00:40:33,467
[Mina] You also get tons
of natural light in here.
1249
00:40:33,467 --> 00:40:35,867
-[Alysse] Yup.
-And the chandelier we picked,
1250
00:40:35,867 --> 00:40:38,367
I am literally
going to order for my house
1251
00:40:38,367 --> 00:40:40,500
because I'm so obsessed
with it.
1252
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:42,100
[Karen]
Someone brush your hair.
1253
00:40:42,100 --> 00:40:43,200
These are brand-new brushes,
FYI.
1254
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:44,467
-[Alysse] Oh, yes.
-No one else has used them,
1255
00:40:44,467 --> 00:40:45,367
-okay?
-No, it's okay.
1256
00:40:45,367 --> 00:40:46,767
You can brush my hair
all day long.
1257
00:40:46,767 --> 00:40:49,166
I think this is just
a lovely space.
1258
00:40:49,166 --> 00:40:51,200
And we have a nice
little back deck.
1259
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,300
-And so, let's check it out.
-Yay.
1260
00:40:53,300 --> 00:40:56,433
[upbeat music playing]
1261
00:41:02,066 --> 00:41:04,166
You got your beautiful
composite deck.
1262
00:41:04,166 --> 00:41:04,967
I love it.
1263
00:41:04,967 --> 00:41:06,166
Very durable
and low maintenance.
1264
00:41:06,166 --> 00:41:07,266
Yes.
1265
00:41:07,266 --> 00:41:09,266
I see some more bistro tables
over here in the future.
1266
00:41:09,266 --> 00:41:10,400
-I do.
-Yeah.
1267
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,066
Probably an umbrella
of some sort.
1268
00:41:14,367 --> 00:41:17,000
[Mina]
So we had a good friend,
1269
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,400
your brother come out
and help us
1270
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:20,867
and save the day
with the deck.
1271
00:41:20,867 --> 00:41:22,767
-So, Tad did a great job.
-[Alysse] Mmm-hmm.
1272
00:41:22,767 --> 00:41:24,500
[Mina] I think
the biggest thing for us
1273
00:41:24,500 --> 00:41:26,567
was getting this ADA handrail
1274
00:41:26,567 --> 00:41:28,567
and properly in on time,
1275
00:41:28,567 --> 00:41:30,667
-so we are very happy.
-Yeah.
1276
00:41:30,667 --> 00:41:33,266
Well, now, you are compliant
in every way.
1277
00:41:33,266 --> 00:41:34,767
Um, the last phase,
the second floor
1278
00:41:34,767 --> 00:41:37,567
where we're able to fit
five suites up there.
1279
00:41:37,567 --> 00:41:39,667
And all those spaces
are now rented out
1280
00:41:39,667 --> 00:41:42,200
to other beauty businesses,
which is amazing.
1281
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,767
I think the product
and what you've...
1282
00:41:44,767 --> 00:41:46,667
What you've ended up
with is really amazing.
1283
00:41:46,667 --> 00:41:50,767
[dramatic music playing]
1284
00:41:52,100 --> 00:41:53,266
[Alysse] You know,
it's hard being
1285
00:41:53,266 --> 00:41:56,000
a self-employed entrepreneur
and with this building,
1286
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,700
I really wanted to provide
a beautiful space
1287
00:41:58,700 --> 00:41:59,867
where it's all done
1288
00:41:59,867 --> 00:42:01,700
for these businesses
coming in,
1289
00:42:01,700 --> 00:42:03,367
so that they don't have
to worry
1290
00:42:03,367 --> 00:42:05,266
about all the things
that I've already learned
1291
00:42:05,266 --> 00:42:07,433
and the mistakes
that I've made.
1292
00:42:08,100 --> 00:42:09,200
It's just beautiful.
1293
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,967
It's like,
I worked on my couch,
1294
00:42:11,967 --> 00:42:13,300
and now I have this,
1295
00:42:13,300 --> 00:42:16,667
so it's just been
a great moment.
1296
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:18,867
So it's been a long road.
1297
00:42:18,867 --> 00:42:20,166
-[Alysse] It has.
-Obviously.
1298
00:42:20,166 --> 00:42:21,600
But I know for us
getting to do something
1299
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:22,967
different like this...
1300
00:42:22,967 --> 00:42:25,200
-Yeah.
-is always so exciting.
1301
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,667
And the space really is...
1302
00:42:27,667 --> 00:42:29,800
You could just...
1303
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:31,567
-start working.
-I know. We're ready.
1304
00:42:31,567 --> 00:42:33,266
This was
an expensive project.
1305
00:42:33,266 --> 00:42:35,600
When Alysse bought it,
it was just under $300,000,
1306
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:37,367
but ran into some
added expenses
1307
00:42:37,367 --> 00:42:40,000
including turning the kitchen
into a commercial space.
1308
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,567
So she ended up spending
about $375,000.
1309
00:42:43,567 --> 00:42:45,266
But already has
income producing tenants,
1310
00:42:45,266 --> 00:42:47,767
so she's happy.
1311
00:42:47,767 --> 00:42:49,667
And what she's doing
for our neighborhood
1312
00:42:49,667 --> 00:42:51,767
Fountain Square is fantastic.
1313
00:42:51,767 --> 00:42:53,467
She's giving us
another destination
1314
00:42:53,467 --> 00:42:55,367
to walk to with a whole bunch
of services
1315
00:42:55,367 --> 00:42:56,667
that we don't have
in the neighborhood.
1316
00:42:56,667 --> 00:42:58,767
So I'm very excited for that.
