1
00:00:01,035 --> 00:00:02,868
[Karen] That's tiny.
2
00:00:02,870 --> 00:00:05,304
[Mina] I love small houses,
because theoretically,
they're quick projects.
3
00:00:05,306 --> 00:00:06,538
[laughs]
4
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:08,207
Oh, the smell
just hit me, though.
5
00:00:08,209 --> 00:00:09,808
Oh, my goodness, Mina.
6
00:00:09,810 --> 00:00:11,410
[Mina] Very confusing.
7
00:00:12,613 --> 00:00:14,713
-[Cory] What's wrong?
-[Tad] You don't
wanna know, buddy.
8
00:00:14,715 --> 00:00:16,648
-Is it bad?
-[Karen grunting]
9
00:00:16,717 --> 00:00:17,816
Oh, no, Karen.
10
00:00:17,818 --> 00:00:19,718
You're so brave.
11
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,420
This floor system ain't right.
12
00:00:21,422 --> 00:00:22,755
This all has to go.
13
00:00:22,823 --> 00:00:24,189
We gotta pull all this up.
14
00:00:24,191 --> 00:00:25,724
[Cory grunting]
15
00:00:27,428 --> 00:00:28,961
-Beautiful.
-I love it.
16
00:00:29,063 --> 00:00:30,429
I think she's gonna love it.
17
00:00:30,431 --> 00:00:33,065
Oh, my gosh.
18
00:00:33,100 --> 00:00:34,333
Wow!
19
00:00:37,405 --> 00:00:39,171
Hyah!
20
00:00:39,173 --> 00:00:42,441
[Mina] Mom and I take on
some of the nastiest houses
you've ever seen.
21
00:00:46,247 --> 00:00:49,348
Our team isn't afraid
to tackle the worst
of the worst.
22
00:00:49,417 --> 00:00:51,250
[Karen] That is so gross!
23
00:00:51,351 --> 00:00:52,684
[Mina] Holy cow.
24
00:00:52,686 --> 00:00:54,953
Then we turn
those rundown houses
25
00:00:55,022 --> 00:00:56,922
into some of the nicest home
in the neighborhood.
26
00:00:56,924 --> 00:00:58,624
-[man 1] Wow!
-[woman 1] I love it.
27
00:01:09,236 --> 00:01:11,403
[Karen] So where are you
taking me today?
28
00:01:11,405 --> 00:01:12,805
We are going
to Old Southside,
29
00:01:12,807 --> 00:01:15,307
but first I have
some exciting news.
30
00:01:15,309 --> 00:01:16,742
Am I gonna be excited?
31
00:01:16,844 --> 00:01:18,510
Um... for me.
32
00:01:18,512 --> 00:01:19,611
[Karen] Okay. All right.
33
00:01:19,613 --> 00:01:21,346
I like being excited for you.
This is good.
34
00:01:21,415 --> 00:01:23,615
[Mina] So I've been waiting
to tell you
until it was official,
35
00:01:23,617 --> 00:01:25,784
but I bought an empty lot
and we're gonna build
36
00:01:25,786 --> 00:01:28,420
a headquarters
for Two Chicks and a Hammer.
37
00:01:28,422 --> 00:01:31,056
-It's very exciting.
-That's very exciting.
38
00:01:31,058 --> 00:01:32,257
[Mina] You know,
I have the lot.
39
00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:33,425
And since
it's zoned commercial,
40
00:01:33,427 --> 00:01:35,727
we can basically build it
from lot line to lot line.
41
00:01:35,729 --> 00:01:37,062
So super big.
42
00:01:37,131 --> 00:01:40,132
We are gonna be able
to do upwards
of 6,000 square feet.
43
00:01:40,234 --> 00:01:43,402
You've never had anything
approaching 6,000 square feet.
44
00:01:43,404 --> 00:01:45,804
-[Mina] I'm so excited.
-Are you even gonna know
what to do with that?
45
00:01:45,806 --> 00:01:47,139
I don't know
what to do with that.
46
00:01:47,208 --> 00:01:48,573
[exhales]
47
00:01:48,575 --> 00:01:52,044
[Karen] I think about
where we came from
and all the places--
48
00:01:52,046 --> 00:01:53,445
What do we have, like,
a 100 square feet?
49
00:01:53,547 --> 00:01:54,813
Maybe a little
side office room.
50
00:01:54,815 --> 00:01:56,849
Maybe 120... maybe 120.
51
00:01:56,917 --> 00:01:59,017
But then all the places
you've landed since then,
52
00:01:59,019 --> 00:02:01,954
that every time
you knew it was temporary
53
00:02:01,989 --> 00:02:03,722
and you had
to move everything and--
54
00:02:03,724 --> 00:02:05,757
So many times.
Oh my God, I hate moving.
55
00:02:05,826 --> 00:02:07,826
-This is so exciting.
-[Mina] It's exciting.
56
00:02:07,828 --> 00:02:13,065
So my plan has been taking
a little bit from each house
to move towards this point.
57
00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:14,666
-Um...
-So you got
a little squirrel cash...
58
00:02:14,668 --> 00:02:16,301
[Mina] I got a squirrel,
so I've got the lot.
59
00:02:16,303 --> 00:02:17,603
-...that says HQ.
-I've got that plans.
60
00:02:17,605 --> 00:02:19,071
[Karen] Okay.
61
00:02:19,139 --> 00:02:21,940
I think once we finish
this current house
we're going to and sell it,
62
00:02:21,942 --> 00:02:26,111
there'll be enough
in the squirrel fund to...
to get big girl done, so.
63
00:02:26,113 --> 00:02:29,348
We are heading
to the Old Southside
on Adler.
64
00:02:29,449 --> 00:02:32,818
So this will be
our third house
on the same corner of Adler
65
00:02:32,820 --> 00:02:36,522
Cory's house,
the house behind Cory's,
and now this one.
66
00:02:36,524 --> 00:02:38,490
This one is right across
the street from Cory's house
67
00:02:38,492 --> 00:02:41,126
-Next to the empty lot.
-[Karen] Oh, nice!
68
00:02:41,128 --> 00:02:43,962
[Mina] Obviously, we've spen
a lot of time
in the Old Southside lately
69
00:02:44,031 --> 00:02:45,764
but it's paying off.
70
00:02:45,832 --> 00:02:47,533
More and more houses
are being rented there,
71
00:02:47,634 --> 00:02:50,202
which is great news
for this little nugget
of ours.
72
00:02:50,204 --> 00:02:52,337
I think it's, like,
800 square feet.
73
00:02:52,439 --> 00:02:53,639
That's tiny.
74
00:02:53,740 --> 00:02:58,710
So I wanna look
at layout options
to see if I can get
75
00:02:58,712 --> 00:03:00,512
two bedrooms
and two bath in there.
76
00:03:00,514 --> 00:03:01,913
I think you've done it before.
77
00:03:01,915 --> 00:03:04,049
-And I love
small houses because...
-[Karen] And they're--
78
00:03:04,051 --> 00:03:05,751
...theoretically,
they're quick projects.
79
00:03:05,819 --> 00:03:07,085
Yeah. [laughs]
80
00:03:07,087 --> 00:03:08,720
Theoretically.
81
00:03:08,722 --> 00:03:11,056
And I think that
it's current floor plan
is just like weird and choppy.
82
00:03:11,058 --> 00:03:13,125
You walk in the front door
into the living room,
83
00:03:13,127 --> 00:03:14,860
off to the left
is one bedroom,
84
00:03:14,962 --> 00:03:17,262
to the right
is the dining room and kitch
85
00:03:17,364 --> 00:03:20,299
then there's a shed additio
on the back with a bathroom
86
00:03:20,301 --> 00:03:23,202
The size of this is going
to limit our buyer pool.
87
00:03:23,204 --> 00:03:25,304
It's just
a different buyer pool.
88
00:03:25,306 --> 00:03:26,405
[Mina] Yes.
89
00:03:26,407 --> 00:03:29,208
I purchased this one
for $34,000.
90
00:03:29,210 --> 00:03:32,211
Like I said,
it's pretty small,
around 800 square feet.
91
00:03:32,213 --> 00:03:34,413
And right now
it's one bedroom, one bath.
92
00:03:34,415 --> 00:03:36,048
But hopefully,
we can make it into a two..
93
00:03:36,116 --> 00:03:38,317
two bed, two bath
in no time.
94
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:40,586
This is it.
Over here on the right.
95
00:03:40,588 --> 00:03:42,254
Oh, it's a little nugget.
It's super cute.
96
00:03:42,356 --> 00:03:43,989
[Mina] Yeah.
It's a little nugget.
97
00:03:43,991 --> 00:03:46,525
But it's starting to rain,
so grab the umbrella.
98
00:03:49,096 --> 00:03:51,930
[Karen] So thanks
for taking me out
on this lovely day.
99
00:03:51,932 --> 00:03:53,298
We'll make
the outside part quick.
100
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:54,933
-[Karen laughs]
-[Mina]
It's got cute rooflines.
101
00:03:55,035 --> 00:03:56,568
-[Karen] Yeah.
-I think it's got
a decent size.
102
00:03:56,570 --> 00:03:59,037
Obviously
needs everything new.
103
00:03:59,039 --> 00:04:01,340
We gotta get the old
vinyl siding off,
104
00:04:01,441 --> 00:04:03,108
freshen up the color
and possibly move
105
00:04:03,110 --> 00:04:04,810
the front door,
so it's facing the street.
106
00:04:04,812 --> 00:04:07,312
-[Karen] Yeah.
-Because this house
is so long and skinny.
107
00:04:07,314 --> 00:04:08,814
Wherever we place
the front door,
108
00:04:08,816 --> 00:04:12,017
it's really going to inform
the rest of the floor plan.
109
00:04:12,019 --> 00:04:13,485
[Karen] You want people
to feel invited
110
00:04:13,487 --> 00:04:15,120
and when the door
is on the side
111
00:04:15,122 --> 00:04:18,156
and you can't see it,
it doesn't say,
"Hello, I'm friendly."
112
00:04:18,258 --> 00:04:19,758
-Well, we'll talk more inside.
-Okay.
113
00:04:19,860 --> 00:04:21,260
-Let's get inside.
-Okay. Let's go.
114
00:04:21,328 --> 00:04:24,429
-[Mina] Watch out. Watch out.
-[Karen laughs]
115
00:04:24,431 --> 00:04:27,599
There are tigers
in this tall grass,
I tell you, tigers.
116
00:04:31,705 --> 00:04:34,106
I feel like this window
could come back
117
00:04:34,108 --> 00:04:36,508
into the house somewhere,
take it out of the door.
118
00:04:36,510 --> 00:04:37,609
[Mina] Potentially.
119
00:04:37,611 --> 00:04:39,244
[Karen] And we've got
a higher ceiling
120
00:04:39,346 --> 00:04:41,647
because we've got
the traditional drop ceiling.
121
00:04:41,748 --> 00:04:43,548
[Mina] Yeah.
122
00:04:43,550 --> 00:04:46,151
And if we move the front door,
it makes sense to turn this
into a bedroom and bathroom.
123
00:04:46,253 --> 00:04:47,619
So it's like
a pretty standard shape.
124
00:04:47,621 --> 00:04:49,354
Oh, the smell
just hit me, though.
125
00:04:49,456 --> 00:04:51,323
-Yeah. It's not a great smell.
-I wasn't ready for that.
126
00:04:51,325 --> 00:04:53,425
Not a great smell.
Let that...
let that go, Karen.
127
00:04:53,427 --> 00:04:54,593
-Let it go.
-[Mina] Whew.
128
00:04:54,595 --> 00:04:55,761
Yeah, that was a little rough.
129
00:04:55,862 --> 00:04:57,195
[Karen] What else we got?
130
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,900
[Mina] There's enough space
in this room
to add a bathroom.
131
00:05:01,902 --> 00:05:03,702
So then you would have
two ensuites on this side
132
00:05:03,704 --> 00:05:06,204
of the house away
from the public areas.
133
00:05:06,206 --> 00:05:07,506
[Karen] All right.
134
00:05:07,508 --> 00:05:09,408
What else we got?
135
00:05:09,410 --> 00:05:10,642
All right.
136
00:05:10,711 --> 00:05:12,644
Not bad at all.
137
00:05:12,713 --> 00:05:14,513
That's the dining room,
I would assume.
138
00:05:14,515 --> 00:05:17,516
This whole shed addition,
I think it's... that's gonna
have to come off.
139
00:05:17,518 --> 00:05:19,318
Come off. Bathroom over here.
140
00:05:21,121 --> 00:05:23,722
But look, this is real tile
on the wall.
141
00:05:23,724 --> 00:05:26,858
Oh, my God.
If it wasn't so crappy,
I would love it.
142
00:05:26,927 --> 00:05:28,660
[Karen] Yeah.
143
00:05:28,662 --> 00:05:31,229
So you can see, this bathroom
is part of the add-on
and it's just got to go.
144
00:05:31,231 --> 00:05:33,365
The framing
is very questionable.
145
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:34,599
[Mina] Yeah.
146
00:05:34,601 --> 00:05:36,401
Kitchen.
147
00:05:37,504 --> 00:05:40,038
[Karen] This is real brick.
148
00:05:40,107 --> 00:05:43,108
It's brick veneer
where they sliced
a bunch of bricks.
149
00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:44,543
[Mina] Nothing special there.
150
00:05:44,611 --> 00:05:46,445
So we've got the three spaces
in the front.
151
00:05:46,513 --> 00:05:48,213
If that becomes
our private bedroom area,
152
00:05:48,215 --> 00:05:49,948
then we can move
the front door here
153
00:05:49,950 --> 00:05:51,950
and make this our living room
and this our kitchen.
154
00:05:52,052 --> 00:05:53,218
[Karen] Yeah. Okay.
155
00:05:53,220 --> 00:05:54,619
Basement.
156
00:05:58,225 --> 00:06:00,192
Let's see, stairs aren't bad.
157
00:06:00,194 --> 00:06:02,527
[Mina] No.
158
00:06:02,529 --> 00:06:05,330
So, it's really interesting
'cause if you look behind you,
159
00:06:05,332 --> 00:06:09,601
like, I don't know
if this was original footer
and they dug it out.
160
00:06:09,603 --> 00:06:11,903
I was a little confused
by some of it.
161
00:06:11,905 --> 00:06:13,338
[Karen] Yeah,
it's very confusing
162
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,008
and not necessarily sitting
on the ground.
163
00:06:17,010 --> 00:06:19,311
Definitely
that's a problem, though.
164
00:06:19,313 --> 00:06:22,114
[Karen] Yeah,
but the rest of it
looks pretty good.
165
00:06:22,116 --> 00:06:24,349
-Center block.
-[Mina] Yeah.
The joists aren't terrible.
166
00:06:24,418 --> 00:06:26,251
[Karen] I wanna take
a peek up
in the attic real quick.
167
00:06:26,353 --> 00:06:27,452
Oh, yeah.
168
00:06:29,923 --> 00:06:32,791
I mean, it doesn't look
bad up here at all.
169
00:06:32,793 --> 00:06:34,326
[Karen] Not bad at all.
170
00:06:34,328 --> 00:06:36,561
Ceilings are super high.
171
00:06:36,663 --> 00:06:38,730
I mean,
it's disgusting and dirty.
172
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:40,932
Oh, feces. Yay!
173
00:06:41,034 --> 00:06:42,434
[Mina] Raccoon? Human?
174
00:06:42,536 --> 00:06:44,102
[Karen] I'm gonna go with...
175
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,840
I'm gonna go with cat.
176
00:06:48,942 --> 00:06:49,941
All right.
177
00:06:50,010 --> 00:06:51,643
So... Oh, my goodness, Mina.
178
00:06:52,946 --> 00:06:55,714
-[Mina] Very confusing.
-[Karen] Yeah. Very confusin
179
00:06:59,820 --> 00:07:01,119
[Mina] Let's see what else.
180
00:07:01,121 --> 00:07:03,955
All right, so...
Oh, my goodness, Mina.
181
00:07:04,024 --> 00:07:08,427
The wall that's holding up
the roof is leaning outwards.
182
00:07:08,429 --> 00:07:11,163
This has got a bad lean on it.
183
00:07:11,231 --> 00:07:12,798
[Mina] Very confusing.
184
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,298
Yeah. Very confusing.
185
00:07:14,300 --> 00:07:17,602
Also looks like
they've tried to support
a little bit on the porch,
186
00:07:17,604 --> 00:07:19,704
but the support is not enough,
187
00:07:19,706 --> 00:07:23,942
so that's gonna
have to be addressed
in a really robust way.
188
00:07:23,944 --> 00:07:25,377
All right. I'm coming down.
189
00:07:25,379 --> 00:07:26,745
[Mina] Okay.
190
00:07:26,847 --> 00:07:28,246
[Karen] Let's go back here.
191
00:07:30,317 --> 00:07:33,952
So it looks like
the original house
had a hinge roof
192
00:07:33,954 --> 00:07:36,955
over a porch
and then at some point
193
00:07:37,024 --> 00:07:40,425
they turned some of the porch
into interior space.
194
00:07:40,427 --> 00:07:41,693
-Yeah.
-[Karen] I don't know.
195
00:07:41,695 --> 00:07:42,861
I can't tell.
196
00:07:42,963 --> 00:07:45,063
So what did you pay
for this place?
197
00:07:45,131 --> 00:07:47,799
-[Mina] So I bought
this house for 34,000.
-[Karen] Okay.
198
00:07:47,801 --> 00:07:50,836
[Mina] And I think
it'll cost us about
120,000 to renovate it
199
00:07:50,904 --> 00:07:53,338
and get two bedrooms
and two baths out of it.
200
00:07:53,406 --> 00:07:55,640
-[Karen] Yeah.
-And sell it 200,
something like that.
201
00:07:55,709 --> 00:08:00,045
I feel like your,
the classic chop and pop
might be overbuilding here.
202
00:08:00,047 --> 00:08:01,746
-Yes. I think so too.
-Yeah.
203
00:08:01,815 --> 00:08:05,217
Cory's house
was our loss leader,
um, in the Old Southside,
204
00:08:05,219 --> 00:08:08,420
and he got it under contract
so early we didn't make
205
00:08:08,422 --> 00:08:10,522
anything on it,
but by the time he closed,
206
00:08:10,524 --> 00:08:13,925
it appraised higher
than what we had it
under contract for.
207
00:08:13,927 --> 00:08:16,027
So the market's
already changing.
208
00:08:16,029 --> 00:08:19,064
We didn't make a huge profi
on our last house over here
but it was more than Cory's
209
00:08:19,165 --> 00:08:21,633
So with each one we do,
the profit creeps up,
210
00:08:21,702 --> 00:08:23,235
so hopefully
this one will deliver
211
00:08:23,303 --> 00:08:25,203
and give us the final push
we need to break ground
212
00:08:25,205 --> 00:08:27,405
on our Two Chicks
headquarters.
213
00:08:27,407 --> 00:08:29,007
So to get the most
out of our money,
214
00:08:29,009 --> 00:08:30,575
we're gonna need
to add a bedroom
215
00:08:30,577 --> 00:08:32,511
and a second bathroom
to make this
a true two bedroom,
216
00:08:32,513 --> 00:08:35,614
two bath, which will mean
reconfiguring the layout.
217
00:08:35,616 --> 00:08:38,416
I wanna move the front door
so it's facing the street.
218
00:08:38,418 --> 00:08:39,951
We'll also have
some foundation issues
219
00:08:40,020 --> 00:08:41,319
to take care of
in the basement,
220
00:08:41,321 --> 00:08:43,755
along with some roofing issu
in the attic.
221
00:08:43,857 --> 00:08:45,123
All right. Let's get
out of the rain.
222
00:08:45,125 --> 00:08:46,324
[Karen] Yeah.
223
00:08:46,326 --> 00:08:48,426
♪ It's a rainy day ♪
224
00:08:48,428 --> 00:08:50,328
♪ It's a rainy day ♪
225
00:09:01,508 --> 00:09:02,707
Oh, well, hello, gentlemen.
226
00:09:02,709 --> 00:09:04,042
-[laughter]
-What's up?
227
00:09:04,044 --> 00:09:05,410
I didn't even see you
sitting there.
228
00:09:05,412 --> 00:09:07,345
Thanks for showing up.
That's nice of you.
229
00:09:07,414 --> 00:09:08,513
How long
have you been waiting?
230
00:09:08,515 --> 00:09:10,115
Oh, like, you know,
I show up early.
231
00:09:10,117 --> 00:09:13,552
It's the thing I do.
It is demo day on Adler.
232
00:09:13,620 --> 00:09:15,954
Jack is sick, so Mina
is staying home with him.
233
00:09:16,023 --> 00:09:19,691
So I am leading
the demo brigade today.
234
00:09:19,693 --> 00:09:21,927
-I have no partner in crime.
-Yeah.
235
00:09:21,929 --> 00:09:23,395
And I have no idea
what we're doing.
236
00:09:23,397 --> 00:09:25,764
But I happen to know
Austin knows what we're doing.
237
00:09:25,865 --> 00:09:27,332
So, Austin, come on up,
take the stage.
238
00:09:27,401 --> 00:09:28,934
Looks who's in charge today.
239
00:09:28,936 --> 00:09:31,002
Run the show. Yeah! Yeah!
240
00:09:31,004 --> 00:09:32,704
-[Cory] Oh, my God.
-[Austin] What's up?
241
00:09:32,706 --> 00:09:36,041
So I guess the reason
that I came to be in charge
242
00:09:36,109 --> 00:09:39,144
was because I'm the one
that filed the permits
243
00:09:39,245 --> 00:09:41,246
and called
the dumpster company,
and that's really about it.
244
00:09:41,348 --> 00:09:42,447
So what... what
are we doing today?
245
00:09:42,549 --> 00:09:44,115
So this is just coming down
to the studs.
246
00:09:44,117 --> 00:09:46,851
Exterior off, interior off,
down to the studs.
247
00:09:46,953 --> 00:09:49,321
The inside's relatively clean
from what I've heard,
248
00:09:49,323 --> 00:09:50,855
so it shouldn't be too bad
of a demo today.
249
00:09:50,957 --> 00:09:52,591
No. It's not bad in there.
Yes, another question.
250
00:09:52,593 --> 00:09:54,225
-Next question.
-Mina is not here.
251
00:09:54,227 --> 00:09:57,529
And since that's the case,
uh, I think the cats
are coming out to play.
252
00:09:57,531 --> 00:09:59,431
-[laughter]
-[Cory] All right.
253
00:09:59,433 --> 00:10:00,599
-Let's go.
-[Tad] Burnin' too hot!
254
00:10:00,601 --> 00:10:02,901
-[Cory] Let's get to work.
-[Tad] See you, guys.
255
00:10:02,903 --> 00:10:04,402
Okay.
256
00:10:05,505 --> 00:10:06,638
-I got it.
-[Karen] Perfect.
257
00:10:06,740 --> 00:10:08,239
Beautiful.
258
00:10:10,410 --> 00:10:11,543
Oh, God.
259
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,213
-We came to do business.
-Yeah.
260
00:10:15,215 --> 00:10:16,414
Yes!
261
00:10:16,416 --> 00:10:19,451
[upbeat song playing]
262
00:10:21,955 --> 00:10:24,856
You've really upped
your jort game
to a robber game.
263
00:10:24,925 --> 00:10:25,957
Jortveralls.
264
00:10:26,059 --> 00:10:27,425
So satisfying!
265
00:10:29,796 --> 00:10:32,430
This is how you know
I'm serious about
my job today.
266
00:10:35,902 --> 00:10:37,002
[Cory] What y'all up to?
267
00:10:37,004 --> 00:10:38,269
[Tad] Do you wanna check
the toilet?
268
00:10:38,271 --> 00:10:39,938
-You checked it?
-[Karen] So,
that's the problem?
269
00:10:39,940 --> 00:10:41,206
[Cory] What's wrong?
270
00:10:41,208 --> 00:10:43,041
-You don't wanna know, buddy.
-Is it bad?
271
00:10:43,043 --> 00:10:44,909
[Karen] Oh, it's not bad.
272
00:10:44,911 --> 00:10:47,912
You can unscrew it
and then we can just
lift it up.
273
00:10:47,914 --> 00:10:50,181
-[Cory] Oh, no! Oh, no!
-[Karen] You missed?
274
00:10:50,183 --> 00:10:51,616
[Cory]
Oh, that's got poop on it.
275
00:10:51,618 --> 00:10:53,318
That's like letting a lady
pump her own gas.
276
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,820
-I just need to find a way...
-[Cory retching]
277
00:10:55,822 --> 00:10:57,055
Oh, no, Karen.
278
00:11:01,128 --> 00:11:02,527
Oh, that's got poop on it.
279
00:11:02,529 --> 00:11:05,363
I just need to find a way...
[Cory retching]
280
00:11:05,465 --> 00:11:07,432
Oh, no, Karen.
281
00:11:07,501 --> 00:11:09,601
You are so impressive
right now.
282
00:11:09,603 --> 00:11:11,803
-[Karen laughing]
-You look so good
carrying that toilet.
283
00:11:12,906 --> 00:11:15,607
I have no understanding
of why the toilets
284
00:11:15,609 --> 00:11:17,542
are so difficult
for these boys.
285
00:11:17,611 --> 00:11:19,644
[Cory] Oh, no, Karen.
286
00:11:19,746 --> 00:11:21,446
You're so brave.
287
00:11:21,515 --> 00:11:23,415
This is not bravery.
288
00:11:23,417 --> 00:11:25,417
Bravery is a charging bear.
289
00:11:25,419 --> 00:11:27,218
-[laughs]
-And I get big and go...
290
00:11:27,220 --> 00:11:28,920
-[screaming]
-[Cory] Yeah.
291
00:11:28,922 --> 00:11:30,822
-You're brave, aren't you?
-That's bravery.
292
00:11:30,824 --> 00:11:32,724
How does she do that, dude?
293
00:11:32,726 --> 00:11:35,060
-[Tad] I don't know, man.
-[Cory] That is impressive.
294
00:11:35,128 --> 00:11:36,661
[Tad] I'm gonna work
on the outside.
295
00:11:36,697 --> 00:11:38,263
Heads up.
296
00:11:48,141 --> 00:11:49,808
-[Karen] Nicely done.
-[Austin] Very nice.
297
00:11:52,913 --> 00:11:54,612
[Tad] Oh, Lordy.
298
00:11:54,614 --> 00:11:56,481
There's so much lath in here.
299
00:11:56,483 --> 00:11:58,616
It's on the walls,
it's on the ceilings.
300
00:11:58,618 --> 00:12:00,452
It's literally
all over this house.
301
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,220
-It's everywhere.
-You know what?
302
00:12:02,222 --> 00:12:05,356
I'm tempted to save the lath
from this house, because...
303
00:12:05,425 --> 00:12:07,625
Don't break it.
If you can take it off
in little pieces.
304
00:12:07,627 --> 00:12:09,728
Somebody sent me a picture,
'cause what they did
305
00:12:09,730 --> 00:12:14,399
is they have a whole wall
and they used lath to do
a marquetry pattern.
306
00:12:14,401 --> 00:12:16,034
Look at this.
307
00:12:16,036 --> 00:12:17,435
Oh, that's sick.
308
00:12:17,537 --> 00:12:18,703
[Karen] How amazing is that?
309
00:12:18,705 --> 00:12:20,105
[Cory] It looks like
a tedious process.
310
00:12:20,107 --> 00:12:21,506
[Austin]
It is a very cool wall.
311
00:12:21,508 --> 00:12:24,109
Somebody on social media
sent me a picture
312
00:12:24,111 --> 00:12:26,311
of what her husband
had done on the wall
313
00:12:26,313 --> 00:12:29,681
in the dining room
and it's lath marquetry.
314
00:12:29,683 --> 00:12:33,051
So you can tell they've demoed
this house and they've saved
the lath
315
00:12:33,119 --> 00:12:34,618
and they've cleaned it up.
316
00:12:34,620 --> 00:12:38,056
And then they made
this really cool pattern
on the wall with the lath.
317
00:12:38,125 --> 00:12:40,959
Are we onboard
with saving lath
for this project?
318
00:12:41,027 --> 00:12:42,360
Yeah.
319
00:12:46,733 --> 00:12:49,033
[Karen] I am so excited
about this project.
320
00:12:49,135 --> 00:12:52,003
I think this is gonna be
a huge feature in the house,
321
00:12:52,005 --> 00:12:55,707
maybe even the most
eye-catching feature
in the whole house.
322
00:12:55,709 --> 00:12:57,308
You know what?
323
00:12:57,310 --> 00:13:00,311
We're gonna have a house
that has a lot of lath
and that's a great idea.
324
00:13:05,619 --> 00:13:09,888
Even without Mina here,
I think Austin and I led
the demo charge pretty well.
325
00:13:09,890 --> 00:13:11,122
[Austin] Yep.
326
00:13:11,124 --> 00:13:12,857
We all got to have some fun
and nothing got destroyed
327
00:13:12,926 --> 00:13:14,125
that didn't need
to be destroyed.
328
00:13:14,127 --> 00:13:15,827
I call that
a successful demo day.
329
00:13:25,539 --> 00:13:26,638
Hey-o!
330
00:13:26,706 --> 00:13:28,439
[Mina] Hey.
331
00:13:28,541 --> 00:13:29,941
-What are you making?
-You got plans?
332
00:13:29,943 --> 00:13:33,144
Oh, yeah. I've got plans
to do a lot of things today.
333
00:13:33,213 --> 00:13:34,746
-What are you making?
-Smell it... Taste it.
334
00:13:34,814 --> 00:13:36,214
-No, no, no, no.
-It smells like a fruit.
335
00:13:36,216 --> 00:13:37,916
It looks like it smells
like seaweed.
336
00:13:37,918 --> 00:13:40,218
Taste it. It doesn't...
This one does not taste
like seaweed.
337
00:13:40,220 --> 00:13:41,352
I'm okay.
338
00:13:41,454 --> 00:13:44,422
Good stuff. Okay.
So, we got Adler here.
339
00:13:44,424 --> 00:13:46,157
Yeah, right across the street.
340
00:13:46,259 --> 00:13:48,526
This is the second home
we've done that's just
341
00:13:48,528 --> 00:13:50,028
within a stone's throw
of Cory's house.
342
00:13:50,030 --> 00:13:51,963
Just keep on increasing
my property value.
343
00:13:52,031 --> 00:13:53,064
Thank you very much.
344
00:13:53,133 --> 00:13:54,799
Unlike these other ones,
though, uh,
345
00:13:54,801 --> 00:13:56,501
this one is not getting
the chops,
346
00:13:56,503 --> 00:13:58,703
not getting a pop,
staying a little tiny nugget,
347
00:13:58,705 --> 00:14:00,438
but I definitely think
there are things we can do
348
00:14:00,540 --> 00:14:03,208
to make it feel bigger,
function really well.
349
00:14:03,210 --> 00:14:04,342
Um, it's gonna be good.
350
00:14:04,444 --> 00:14:06,211
The front porch is almost
as big as the whole house.
351
00:14:06,213 --> 00:14:08,046
[Cory] Yeah, the front porch
is gigantic.
352
00:14:08,114 --> 00:14:10,715
So front porch,
you reframe and make it.
353
00:14:10,717 --> 00:14:13,051
So the porch
is mostly inside space.
354
00:14:13,119 --> 00:14:16,287
So 16 feet
of the 19-foot porch
355
00:14:16,289 --> 00:14:18,423
will now be given
to inside the house.
356
00:14:18,425 --> 00:14:20,124
-Yeah.
-That's pretty cool.
357
00:14:20,126 --> 00:14:22,627
And we're actually, uh,
not having to do any form
358
00:14:22,629 --> 00:14:25,930
of like footer or addition
to gain real estate space.
359
00:14:25,932 --> 00:14:27,832
We're gonna get it
from the front porch.
360
00:14:27,934 --> 00:14:29,200
Yes.
361
00:14:29,202 --> 00:14:31,436
I don't think
we've ever pulled
a stunt like that before.
362
00:14:31,537 --> 00:14:34,339
[Mina] So now when you come
the front door,
which is way further out,
363
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,708
you've kind of got
this open walkway entryway
364
00:14:36,710 --> 00:14:38,209
and you'll have
the living room at the back
365
00:14:38,211 --> 00:14:40,044
of the house in front
of you wide open,
366
00:14:40,113 --> 00:14:41,546
the kitchen
at the back of the house
367
00:14:41,548 --> 00:14:45,016
to the right wide open,
and then the front
of the house
368
00:14:45,018 --> 00:14:46,517
is the two bedrooms
and two bathrooms.
369
00:14:46,519 --> 00:14:47,685
[Cory] Yeah.
370
00:14:47,754 --> 00:14:50,622
And they're petite,
but they fit
and they function.
371
00:14:50,624 --> 00:14:52,156
No, I agree with that.
There's not-
372
00:14:52,158 --> 00:14:56,127
We'll do a new patio out back,
privacy fence,
new sidewalk in the front,
373
00:14:56,129 --> 00:14:58,529
get some nice, like,
landscaping along here.
374
00:14:58,531 --> 00:15:01,733
I think it's gonna be
like a perfect little
postage stamp downtown house.
375
00:15:01,735 --> 00:15:03,001
[Cory] Yeah.
376
00:15:03,003 --> 00:15:04,936
The client for this house
is similar to you.
377
00:15:05,038 --> 00:15:06,404
-Yeah.
-It's gonna be like...
378
00:15:06,406 --> 00:15:07,438
First time homebuyer, eh?
379
00:15:07,540 --> 00:15:09,340
First time homebuyer,
young, professional.
380
00:15:09,442 --> 00:15:10,842
It's small.
So you're good with those?
381
00:15:10,911 --> 00:15:12,810
-[Cory] Oh, yeah.
-[Mina] Start putting it
back together.
382
00:15:12,812 --> 00:15:13,912
-All right.
-Thank you.
383
00:15:13,914 --> 00:15:15,113
-[Cory] Thank you.

388
00:15:21,588 --> 00:15:23,788
Before we get too far along
on our Adler house,
389
00:15:23,790 --> 00:15:25,590
we have to do
some foundation repairs
390
00:15:25,592 --> 00:15:28,960
in the basement to make sur
our roof system
has all the support it needs
391
00:15:28,962 --> 00:15:30,261
So no more walls
were leaning out
392
00:15:30,363 --> 00:15:32,330
like mom found
when we first walked
the house.
393
00:15:33,533 --> 00:15:35,800
With everything shored up,
we can get our new roof on.
394
00:15:35,802 --> 00:15:40,405
Definitely wanna get it on
before it's rainy or too cold.
395
00:15:40,407 --> 00:15:42,540
So we can keep doing
everything inside.
396
00:15:42,642 --> 00:15:44,509
We finally began framing
and we're boxing
397
00:15:44,511 --> 00:15:46,811
in the old front porch
to give us
more square footage.
398
00:15:46,813 --> 00:15:48,713
But we had to replace some
of the old floorboards
399
00:15:48,715 --> 00:15:51,249
that were rotten
and immediately found
an issue.
400
00:15:51,351 --> 00:15:52,850
We need to get
in this basement.
401
00:15:55,221 --> 00:15:57,055
Yeah. We gotta
to pull all this up.
402
00:15:57,123 --> 00:15:58,189
This all has to go.
403
00:15:58,191 --> 00:15:59,657
We gotta get
to the source here.
404
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:02,226
This whole corner is out.
Something fierce.
405
00:16:02,228 --> 00:16:03,962
[Mina] You can tell
it's going down to that angle.
406
00:16:04,030 --> 00:16:05,330
Yeah, this floor system's...
407
00:16:06,633 --> 00:16:07,832
ain't right.
408
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,307
Yeah.
We gotta pull all this up.
409
00:16:16,309 --> 00:16:17,542
This all has to go.
410
00:16:17,643 --> 00:16:19,310
[Mina] You can tell
it's going down to that angle.
411
00:16:19,312 --> 00:16:21,913
Yeah. This floor system's
ain't right.
412
00:16:21,915 --> 00:16:25,450
This floor back here
is wonkity, technical term.
413
00:16:25,518 --> 00:16:28,419
So I want Cory to get it up
so I can see
what's happening under it,
414
00:16:28,421 --> 00:16:30,621
because I can tell
by looking at it
and walking on it,
415
00:16:30,623 --> 00:16:33,424
the whole floor
is slanting down
toward the back of the house
416
00:16:33,426 --> 00:16:35,426
[hammering]
417
00:16:38,198 --> 00:16:39,831
[Cory grunting]
418
00:16:39,833 --> 00:16:41,399
Things I do for you.
419
00:16:43,336 --> 00:16:45,837
That's exactly the one
we wanted to open, isn't it?
420
00:16:45,938 --> 00:16:46,938
[Mina laughs]
421
00:16:47,007 --> 00:16:48,506
[Cory] Ah, I'm feeling
fat right now.
422
00:16:48,508 --> 00:16:50,641
All right. Are you going
in the hole down?
423
00:16:50,743 --> 00:16:51,843
[Mina] Yeah.
424
00:16:51,944 --> 00:16:53,211
You look at this,
the new joists
425
00:16:53,213 --> 00:16:56,314
that were put in
were put in overly notched.
426
00:16:56,316 --> 00:16:57,615
-They're at an angle.
-[Cory grunting]
427
00:16:57,617 --> 00:16:59,083
[Cory] Yeah, I see that.
428
00:16:59,085 --> 00:17:00,952
-[Mina] And that's why
it's angling down that way.
-[Cory] Yeah.
429
00:17:01,021 --> 00:17:03,821
And then over here
we need like a header
430
00:17:03,823 --> 00:17:06,024
because this beam
is stopped and cut.
431
00:17:06,026 --> 00:17:09,227
So nothing supporting
any of this except
two nails here.
432
00:17:09,229 --> 00:17:10,795
-Four, four, four.
-Well, we gotta get this.
433
00:17:10,797 --> 00:17:12,864
We have no hangers,
we have no header.
434
00:17:12,932 --> 00:17:16,834
The joists are not to sit on
the exterior foundation wall,
435
00:17:16,903 --> 00:17:18,102
which isn't the end
of the world,
436
00:17:18,104 --> 00:17:19,404
but the other end
of those joists
437
00:17:19,406 --> 00:17:21,706
are just nailed
into a random board.
438
00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:24,409
In this board,
it ain't attached to anythin
439
00:17:24,411 --> 00:17:28,813
So the problem is that
this can all just go, fwamp,
440
00:17:28,815 --> 00:17:31,049
when any certain amount
of weight isn't there.
441
00:17:31,150 --> 00:17:33,951
Hey, I know framing
was supposed to have been done
442
00:17:33,953 --> 00:17:38,056
for weeks, but it's all...
It's all wrong.
443
00:17:38,124 --> 00:17:40,224
From upstairs, you can tell
it's going down to that angle,
444
00:17:40,226 --> 00:17:42,393
but it's... it's angled,
so those are over notched.
445
00:17:42,395 --> 00:17:45,329
These are just toenailed in.
446
00:17:45,331 --> 00:17:49,333
Here's what I'm thinking
is if this top of this
foundation wall
447
00:17:49,435 --> 00:17:51,436
is level with this one,
we need to have
448
00:17:51,504 --> 00:17:53,404
continuous twelves
going to this wall here.
449
00:17:53,406 --> 00:17:55,306
Well, I'm sure it's not level,
but we'll make it level.
450
00:17:55,308 --> 00:17:56,707
[Cory] Yeah.
This is an easy fix up.
451
00:17:56,709 --> 00:17:59,811
But we already
fixed it theoretically.
452
00:17:59,813 --> 00:18:01,746
Cory's favorite line is like,
"Oh, it's no big deal.
453
00:18:01,848 --> 00:18:03,280
No big deal.
It's not a big deal."
454
00:18:03,282 --> 00:18:06,818
I know it's no big deal,
but we just did it wrong
the first time.
455
00:18:06,820 --> 00:18:08,052
Did we do it right
the first time?
456
00:18:08,121 --> 00:18:09,253
Well, no. We did it wrong.
457
00:18:09,355 --> 00:18:10,554
The framers did it wrong.
458
00:18:10,556 --> 00:18:12,290
Well, you did your job wrong
if the framers did wrong.
459
00:18:12,292 --> 00:18:13,524
[laughs]
460
00:18:13,526 --> 00:18:15,393
So new floor joists
that span the entire width
461
00:18:15,395 --> 00:18:17,662
of the basement will go in
so everything is supported
462
00:18:17,763 --> 00:18:20,398
and leveled
which will cost time
and therefore money.
463
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,500
How much time and money
is to be determined?
464
00:18:22,502 --> 00:18:23,701
[Cory] That's the scary part
465
00:18:23,703 --> 00:18:26,003
-You have so many
little gray beard hairs.
-I know.
466
00:18:26,005 --> 00:18:27,939
It's all salt and peppery.
How old are you?
467
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,941
Uh, not old enough
to have grays.
468
00:18:29,943 --> 00:18:31,809
-I'm 34.
-Okay.
469
00:18:31,811 --> 00:18:33,411
Uh, you gave 'em
to me, though.
470
00:18:33,413 --> 00:18:34,946
-100%.
-[Cory] Yeah.
471
00:18:47,627 --> 00:18:49,827
[Mina] As we were afraid,
the framing issues at Adler
472
00:18:49,829 --> 00:18:51,662
have been holding up
the progress
for a couple of weeks
473
00:18:51,764 --> 00:18:53,264
and are setting us back
several thousand
474
00:18:53,332 --> 00:18:55,433
unexpected dollars
to get everything right.
475
00:18:56,503 --> 00:18:58,302
To keep things moving,
MJ and I are gonna make
476
00:18:58,304 --> 00:19:00,138
some decisions on the desig
so we can hit
477
00:19:00,206 --> 00:19:02,106
the ground running
once these issues are fixed
478
00:19:03,109 --> 00:19:05,042
-[MJ] Some lath.
-[Mina] Mom's project--
479
00:19:05,044 --> 00:19:06,244
[MJ] Oh, yeah.
480
00:19:06,345 --> 00:19:09,013
...for siding
and then some paint colors.
481
00:19:09,015 --> 00:19:10,314
For Adler?
482
00:19:10,316 --> 00:19:11,949
For Adler, yes.
483
00:19:11,951 --> 00:19:15,319
So a recent development
is that we have a buyer
for our little Adler house.
484
00:19:15,321 --> 00:19:17,088
I only listed it a couple
of weeks ago
485
00:19:17,090 --> 00:19:19,056
and she snatched it up
super quick.
486
00:19:19,158 --> 00:19:21,392
The buyer's name is Aliye
and she is moving to Indie
487
00:19:21,394 --> 00:19:23,561
for her doctorate program
and it's gonna be
488
00:19:23,663 --> 00:19:24,829
the perfect little house
for her.
489
00:19:24,831 --> 00:19:26,931
And while we don't
do custom homes,
490
00:19:26,933 --> 00:19:29,800
-I think we can get
some inspiration from her.
-Exactly.
491
00:19:29,802 --> 00:19:32,703
Now, we don't have to appeal
to a large buyer pool.
492
00:19:32,705 --> 00:19:34,405
We just have to make
one person happy.
493
00:19:34,407 --> 00:19:36,040
-I'll start on the outside?
-Yeah.
494
00:19:36,042 --> 00:19:39,510
So with our siding,
I wanna do the vinyl shake.
495
00:19:39,512 --> 00:19:40,912
I knew you're gonna say that.
496
00:19:40,914 --> 00:19:43,614
A little bit more expensive,
but still less
than regular siding.
497
00:19:43,616 --> 00:19:44,749
I'm very into that.
498
00:19:44,817 --> 00:19:47,418
It's very like
beach side, seaside,
499
00:19:47,420 --> 00:19:51,322
like a blue-y gray
and then black windows
500
00:19:51,324 --> 00:19:53,257
with that would be
a little bit
more urban, right?
501
00:19:53,326 --> 00:19:54,992
-[MJ] I love that.
-Okay.
502
00:19:54,994 --> 00:19:57,962
We could do this for, like,
the accent for the door,
not vinyl, but the color.
503
00:19:57,997 --> 00:19:59,330
100%.
504
00:19:59,332 --> 00:20:01,999
Our corner of Adler now
has Cory's dark gray house,
505
00:20:02,001 --> 00:20:03,734
our white house
that we just finished,
506
00:20:03,836 --> 00:20:06,003
and I think this bluish gra
is gonna be perfect
507
00:20:06,005 --> 00:20:08,139
to kind of complete
our color palette.
508
00:20:08,241 --> 00:20:09,240
Exactly.
509
00:20:09,342 --> 00:20:11,042
And the shake shingles
are gonna give it
510
00:20:11,110 --> 00:20:13,144
that beach bungalow
Hamptons vibe.
511
00:20:13,213 --> 00:20:15,146
[Mina] Which will be perfec
for Aliye because she told m
512
00:20:15,215 --> 00:20:16,847
that the beach
is her happy place,
513
00:20:16,949 --> 00:20:19,517
so giving her this
calm coastal design
514
00:20:19,519 --> 00:20:21,252
is gonna be perfect
for her spending
515
00:20:21,354 --> 00:20:24,055
her days there studying
for her doctorate.
516
00:20:24,057 --> 00:20:25,823
Well, if the outside super,
super cool,
517
00:20:25,825 --> 00:20:28,326
we have to find a way
to warm it up on the inside
a little bit.
518
00:20:28,328 --> 00:20:30,161
-Mm-hmm.
-Let's start with the floors.
519
00:20:30,263 --> 00:20:31,262
Yeah.
520
00:20:31,330 --> 00:20:34,398
So this is EVP
and we have enough left
521
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,500
from another project
because this is so small.
522
00:20:36,502 --> 00:20:38,536
So I think we try
to use this here
523
00:20:38,605 --> 00:20:40,705
and it's that light gray color
we want.
524
00:20:40,707 --> 00:20:42,006
-Accent walls.
-I love that.
525
00:20:42,008 --> 00:20:43,507
I don't think the whole house
should be this.
526
00:20:43,509 --> 00:20:44,609
Just the bedroom.
527
00:20:44,611 --> 00:20:46,711
[Mina] Just the bedroom
and then the rest
528
00:20:46,713 --> 00:20:48,746
of the house, this, like,
soft oyster color.
529
00:20:48,848 --> 00:20:50,114
[MJ] I love that.
530
00:20:50,116 --> 00:20:52,149
And in the bathrooms,
I kind of wanna go
with this beige.
531
00:20:52,218 --> 00:20:54,752
Oh, you're gonna like this,
Outer Banks.
532
00:20:54,854 --> 00:20:57,221
-Well, if you look
at all the names...
-Oyster.
533
00:20:57,223 --> 00:20:59,056
Oyster white, pool house,
Outer Banks.
534
00:20:59,125 --> 00:21:00,458
Oh, lovely.
We've got all waters name.
535
00:21:00,559 --> 00:21:01,726
[MJ] There's a vibe.
There's a vibe.
536
00:21:01,728 --> 00:21:03,427
[Mina] There's a vibe. Okay.
537
00:21:03,429 --> 00:21:04,662
The kitchen will have
white cabinets
538
00:21:04,731 --> 00:21:06,330
and a marble countertop
that continues
539
00:21:06,332 --> 00:21:08,032
all the way up the wall
for the backsplash.
540
00:21:08,034 --> 00:21:09,500
So it's a lot of white.
541
00:21:09,502 --> 00:21:12,570
So I want to have
a custom cabinet built,
542
00:21:12,572 --> 00:21:15,106
but this I want in like
a natural oak.
543
00:21:15,108 --> 00:21:17,541
[MJ] To warm everything up,
that's exactly what we need.
544
00:21:17,643 --> 00:21:19,043
[Mina] And I want it
to be glass.
545
00:21:19,145 --> 00:21:21,445
[MJ] A countertop
China cabinet situation.
546
00:21:21,547 --> 00:21:22,747
Yes.
547
00:21:22,749 --> 00:21:27,018
Oh, and I know you had sent,
um, a general furniture plan,
548
00:21:27,020 --> 00:21:29,620
and this was one
of the pieces you want,
which I love.
549
00:21:29,622 --> 00:21:31,322
[MJ] Oh, it's so large.
550
00:21:31,324 --> 00:21:32,957
This is several
thousand dollars
551
00:21:33,025 --> 00:21:34,759
'cause you and I both have
the most expensive taste.
552
00:21:34,860 --> 00:21:36,026
Correct.
553
00:21:36,028 --> 00:21:39,363
But we have a vanity
that legit is almost identical
554
00:21:39,432 --> 00:21:41,399
to this that we didn't end up
using 'cause the top broke.
555
00:21:41,401 --> 00:21:46,504
So what if we use the piece
we have and we can find
a marble remnant?
556
00:21:46,506 --> 00:21:48,706
You can get
this look for way less.
557
00:21:48,708 --> 00:21:52,743
So what I'm hearing
is you're gonna find this
and then bring it to me.
558
00:21:52,812 --> 00:21:55,546
It exists. I know it does.
559
00:21:55,615 --> 00:21:57,548
-Got to do a little digging.
-Yeah, okay.
560
00:21:57,617 --> 00:22:00,051
It could be
literally anywhere,
but I'll find it.
561
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,420
We have nine different
storage units across the city,
562
00:22:02,422 --> 00:22:04,755
and I swear that vanity
is in one of them.
563
00:22:04,824 --> 00:22:06,824
And once upon a time
we had them all organized
564
00:22:06,826 --> 00:22:08,426
on spreadsheets
and everything.
565
00:22:08,428 --> 00:22:11,228
But then everybody
just started shoving
everything everywhere.
566
00:22:11,230 --> 00:22:13,798
So I think it's gonna be
quite the scavenger hunt.
567
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,099
Fun for me.
568
00:22:16,302 --> 00:22:17,501
Elephant in the room.
569
00:22:17,503 --> 00:22:18,602
So small. Yeah.
570
00:22:18,604 --> 00:22:20,604
Um, mom's doing
something with that,
571
00:22:20,606 --> 00:22:23,507
so I wanted to bring
in a couple of pieces,
so it's in your brain.
572
00:22:23,509 --> 00:22:26,544
So whatever we end up
doing with this
is gonna be really cool,
573
00:22:26,645 --> 00:22:29,513
but it's gonna have to be big
and impactful.
574
00:22:29,515 --> 00:22:32,817
I feel like
this is very like niche.
575
00:22:32,819 --> 00:22:34,118
And now
you're making me anxious
576
00:22:34,120 --> 00:22:36,654
because we have a buyer
and she wants the house,
577
00:22:36,723 --> 00:22:37,988
but that is not
on the spec sheet
578
00:22:37,990 --> 00:22:40,124
that she agreed to
for the house.
579
00:22:40,126 --> 00:22:42,960
So I feel like a phone call
to her is probably merited.
580
00:22:43,062 --> 00:22:44,328
-Okay.
-[Mina] Um...
581
00:22:46,299 --> 00:22:47,565
Good morning.
582
00:22:47,633 --> 00:22:49,233
-Good morning.
How you been?
-Good.
583
00:22:49,335 --> 00:22:54,271
We are going through
and finalizing some
of the design decisions here.
584
00:22:54,273 --> 00:22:55,406
Sneak peek.
585
00:22:55,408 --> 00:22:57,641
And so I just wanted
to touch base with you
586
00:22:57,743 --> 00:23:02,313
because there's a lot of this
and this is not anything
we talked about.
587
00:23:02,315 --> 00:23:06,117
How are you feeling about
the appearance of this lath?
588
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:07,818
I like it for sure.
589
00:23:07,820 --> 00:23:09,954
I'll actually be up there
in the next two weeks,
590
00:23:10,055 --> 00:23:12,723
so I... I'd love to see it
and hopefully get
591
00:23:12,725 --> 00:23:14,592
a sneak peek of everything
that's going on.
592
00:23:14,594 --> 00:23:17,928
And you can kind of
help me reel Karen in
and we'll get something
593
00:23:17,930 --> 00:23:19,730
that you really want
'cause I kinda wanna do
594
00:23:19,732 --> 00:23:22,032
something bold
'cause we have a ton of lath.
595
00:23:22,034 --> 00:23:23,901
-Okay.
-That's amazing.
596
00:23:23,903 --> 00:23:26,437
And I'm excited for you
to get a little sneak peek.
597
00:23:26,506 --> 00:23:28,139
-Okay.
-Okay.
598
00:23:28,207 --> 00:23:29,740
-Bye.
-Bye.
599
00:23:34,313 --> 00:23:36,313
[Mina] It took
a couple of weeks
to get everything level
600
00:23:36,315 --> 00:23:39,517
and safe at our
little coastal cottage,
but now we are flying.
601
00:23:39,519 --> 00:23:43,621
Framing, windows,
and drywall are done.
602
00:23:43,623 --> 00:23:47,124
Our weathered gray floors
are going in and the kitche
is well on its way.
603
00:23:48,194 --> 00:23:51,128
Outside, our seaside
bluish gray siding is up
604
00:23:51,130 --> 00:23:54,732
and concrete is being poure
for our back patio
and front walkway.
605
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,039
This is the one.
606
00:24:02,041 --> 00:24:03,640
I know it.
607
00:24:03,642 --> 00:24:06,410
[Mina] And today,
MJ and Austin are on a bit
of a scavenger hunt.
608
00:24:06,412 --> 00:24:08,712
[MJ] The blank-th time
is the charm, right?
609
00:24:08,714 --> 00:24:10,214
[Austin] Yeah.
610
00:24:11,717 --> 00:24:13,451
Feeling good about this one.
611
00:24:13,552 --> 00:24:15,052
Fingers crossed once again.
612
00:24:17,056 --> 00:24:19,123
So Mina came up
with what seems like
613
00:24:19,125 --> 00:24:20,491
it's gonna be
a really good idea.
614
00:24:20,493 --> 00:24:22,159
We have
a very expensive vanity
615
00:24:22,261 --> 00:24:24,061
that has a lot
of drawers on it
616
00:24:24,130 --> 00:24:27,298
that could definitely be
a console table.
617
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:29,033
Mina just doesn't remember
where it is.
618
00:24:29,101 --> 00:24:32,303
So Bobcat and I
are riding around
trying to find it.
619
00:24:32,305 --> 00:24:33,804
-We're on the hunt.
-Nope.
620
00:24:33,806 --> 00:24:36,040
Okay.
621
00:24:36,042 --> 00:24:37,408
How many more?
622
00:24:37,510 --> 00:24:39,043
-[Austin] One last one.
-All right.
623
00:24:39,045 --> 00:24:40,311
It's gotta be here, right?
624
00:24:40,313 --> 00:24:43,113
The next one is gonna be
back in Bates-Hendricks.
625
00:24:43,115 --> 00:24:44,215
All right.
626
00:24:44,217 --> 00:24:45,416
One more.
627
00:24:45,418 --> 00:24:47,017
[MJ] We have, like,
nine storage units,
628
00:24:47,019 --> 00:24:49,320
and we've been to nearly
all of them looking
for this vanity.
629
00:24:49,322 --> 00:24:51,522
We have storage units
pretty much everywhere.
630
00:24:51,524 --> 00:24:53,357
We've got no central location
right now.
631
00:24:53,425 --> 00:24:55,726
Our office is kind of
just wherever you are
in the moment.
632
00:24:55,728 --> 00:24:59,029
[MJ] It's, uh, inefficient
and impossible to inventory
633
00:24:59,031 --> 00:25:00,464
when you've got stuff
in that many places.
634
00:25:00,533 --> 00:25:01,965
And I'm assuming
super expensive.
635
00:25:04,804 --> 00:25:07,338
This better be the one.
I'm done driving around
to these things.
636
00:25:07,406 --> 00:25:11,108
The gas is gonna be empty
if it's not the one.
637
00:25:11,110 --> 00:25:14,245
If this isn't the one,
we're just gonna buy
the thing I wanted originally.
638
00:25:14,313 --> 00:25:16,413
-[Austin] Uh-oh.
-[door clatters]
639
00:25:16,415 --> 00:25:17,648
Going rogue with the money.
640
00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:18,949
This one has to have it.
641
00:25:22,555 --> 00:25:24,321
Oh, story of my life.
642
00:25:29,529 --> 00:25:31,228
[MJ] This one has to have it.
643
00:25:33,366 --> 00:25:35,199
-Oh, my God.
-Oh.
644
00:25:35,201 --> 00:25:36,800
Oh. I'm assuming this is it.
645
00:25:36,802 --> 00:25:39,136
[Austin] Okay.
That looks like it.
646
00:25:39,238 --> 00:25:40,804
Okay. I love this.
647
00:25:40,806 --> 00:25:42,506
We can probably get, like,
648
00:25:42,508 --> 00:25:44,808
a remnant piece
and have it mounted
on top of it.
649
00:25:44,810 --> 00:25:46,610
-So that's the one?
-[MJ] This is the one.
650
00:25:46,612 --> 00:25:49,146
It has to be.
Let's get it out. It's hot.
651
00:25:50,816 --> 00:25:52,816
[MJ] It is real hot in here
and I hate this.
652
00:25:52,818 --> 00:25:56,220
So basically what we have
is a very, very fancy cabinet
653
00:25:56,222 --> 00:25:58,122
with the holes in the back
cut off for plumbing.
654
00:25:58,124 --> 00:26:00,057
But if it's gonna go up
against a wall,
655
00:26:00,126 --> 00:26:01,825
there's no reason
it can't be just like
656
00:26:01,827 --> 00:26:04,628
a sideboard or a buffet
or whatever you call it.
657
00:26:04,630 --> 00:26:05,963
-[sneezing]
-Bless you.
658
00:26:05,965 --> 00:26:07,665
Sorry, I'm allergic
to these storage units.
659
00:26:10,036 --> 00:26:13,637
[Austin] This whole juggling
act of storage units
660
00:26:13,706 --> 00:26:16,407
is getting very old,
and I think it's really
wearing on everybody.
661
00:26:16,409 --> 00:26:19,577
So we... we desperately
need to come up
with a new office.
662
00:26:19,579 --> 00:26:21,645
[MJ] Yep. Tomorrow.
Like, we need it tomorrow.

[Mina] Back at Adler,
the cabinets
are getting installed.
671
00:26:39,432 --> 00:26:41,732
And while we wait
on the tall custom piece,
672
00:26:41,834 --> 00:26:43,434
we're going ahead
with our marble counters,
673
00:26:43,502 --> 00:26:45,502
and the kitchen is starting
to take shape.
674
00:26:45,504 --> 00:26:48,606
And look
at this cutie patootie
coming through the door.
675
00:26:48,608 --> 00:26:50,307
-[MJ and Cory] Hi.
-[Karen] Hi.
676
00:26:50,309 --> 00:26:51,609
[Mina] Mom and the boys
are working
677
00:26:51,611 --> 00:26:54,311
on their lath project
with the help
of our buyer, Aliye.
678
00:26:54,313 --> 00:26:55,412
-Welcome.
-Aliye?
679
00:26:55,414 --> 00:26:56,513
-[Aliye] Aliye.
-MJ.
680
00:26:56,515 --> 00:26:57,848
-MJ, nice to meet you.
-[Karen] Karen.
681
00:26:57,917 --> 00:26:59,116
-Hi.
-[laughter]
682
00:26:59,118 --> 00:27:03,520
I heard through the grapevine
that our homeowner Aliye
683
00:27:03,522 --> 00:27:06,757
likes to get her hands dirty,
likes to do a little project,
684
00:27:06,826 --> 00:27:09,293
and wants to do a project
in this house.
685
00:27:09,295 --> 00:27:12,262
So I'm gonna run past her
my idea for a feature wall
686
00:27:12,331 --> 00:27:14,698
made out of the lath
we found during demo.
687
00:27:14,700 --> 00:27:16,200
I wanna show you
what we're gonna do
688
00:27:16,202 --> 00:27:17,501
'cause you're gonna
get super excited.
689
00:27:17,503 --> 00:27:19,003
-Yeah.
-Look at this.
690
00:27:19,005 --> 00:27:20,304
Oh, that's sick.
691
00:27:20,306 --> 00:27:21,505
[Karen] How amazing is that?
692
00:27:21,507 --> 00:27:23,941
[Cory] It looks like
a tedious process.
693
00:27:23,943 --> 00:27:25,476
Now, because
she's the homeowner
694
00:27:25,478 --> 00:27:27,344
and this is
a really bold look.
695
00:27:27,413 --> 00:27:30,047
I really want her to sign off
on it before we start.
696
00:27:30,115 --> 00:27:31,949
Something wild
just happened in my brain.
697
00:27:32,051 --> 00:27:34,051
Oh, shocking! Shocking!
That never happens.
698
00:27:34,053 --> 00:27:35,853
And I think you might be
really into this.
699
00:27:35,921 --> 00:27:37,321
-Okay.
-What just happened
in your brain?
700
00:27:37,323 --> 00:27:38,856
-And I hope you're really
into this.
-Okay.
701
00:27:38,957 --> 00:27:41,692
-Okay.
-[MJ] What if we did
all the way up to here?
702
00:27:41,694 --> 00:27:44,528
[Karen] So there's our top
of our chair rail, estimate.
703
00:27:44,530 --> 00:27:46,196
[MJ] And we do it
in a herringbone...
704
00:27:46,198 --> 00:27:48,332
-[Aliye] Okay.
-[MJ] ...all the way down.
705
00:27:48,434 --> 00:27:50,401
I think that's cool.
I like herringbone.
706
00:27:50,403 --> 00:27:52,503
[MJ] I think
that would look really cool.
707
00:27:52,505 --> 00:27:54,605
Could I even possibly paint it
in the future?
708
00:27:54,607 --> 00:27:55,839
-[Karen] Absolutely.
-[MJ] Totally.
709
00:27:55,941 --> 00:27:57,274
You know, if I wanted it
to match the trim.
710
00:27:57,276 --> 00:27:59,109
-Whitewash a little bit
or something?
-I think, yeah.
711
00:27:59,111 --> 00:28:01,712
-I really like white tones.
-So maybe that could be
our finishes, whitewash.
712
00:28:01,714 --> 00:28:03,047
-We're gonna get along.
-Yeah.
713
00:28:03,049 --> 00:28:04,348
[Aliye laughing]
714
00:28:07,420 --> 00:28:08,885
[MJ] Beautiful.
715
00:28:10,322 --> 00:28:14,825
I really love
the herringbone pattern
that MJ had the idea for,
716
00:28:14,827 --> 00:28:19,663
and I think using the lath
all along the wall gives it
a really cohesive look.
717
00:28:22,201 --> 00:28:23,701
[Karen] Okay.
718
00:28:25,204 --> 00:28:26,537
That should hit all of it.
719
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,007
I'm so excited to see
the finished product.
720
00:28:30,009 --> 00:28:33,043
I think now
I've gotten a taste
of what it's gonna look like,
721
00:28:33,145 --> 00:28:34,945
so it's been awesome to see
everything come together
722
00:28:34,947 --> 00:28:36,613
and I'm looking forward
to see it finish.
723
00:28:36,615 --> 00:28:38,115
So we still have a lot to do,
724
00:28:38,117 --> 00:28:41,218
but we want you
to have some surprises
so we're booting you out...
725
00:28:41,220 --> 00:28:43,120
-[MJ] You gotta go.
-...and we're gonna
get back to work.
726
00:28:43,122 --> 00:28:44,221
-So go, go, go, go.
-[laughs]
727
00:28:44,223 --> 00:28:45,622
-Okay.
-Thank you for joining.
728
00:28:45,624 --> 00:28:46,724
-Okay.
-Thanks.
729
00:28:46,726 --> 00:28:48,358
-Bye.
-See you later.
730
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,327
-[Cory] We'll see you soon.
-All right. Come on, guys.
We got work to do.
731
00:28:58,938 --> 00:29:00,904
-[Mina] Hello.
-[MJ] Hello.
732
00:29:00,906 --> 00:29:02,639
-How's it going?
-Good to see you, guys.
733
00:29:02,708 --> 00:29:03,841
Good to see you.
734
00:29:03,909 --> 00:29:06,410
MJ and I are popping by Todd
and Rod's office,
735
00:29:06,412 --> 00:29:10,114
um, because I wanna get
the ball rolling
on our HQ plans.
736
00:29:10,116 --> 00:29:12,182
So I want to get
as much square footage
737
00:29:12,184 --> 00:29:14,418
for storage of things
and people
738
00:29:14,420 --> 00:29:18,355
while not looking like
a giant commercial building,
um, as possible.
739
00:29:18,424 --> 00:29:20,023
The location
of the headquarters lot
740
00:29:20,025 --> 00:29:22,326
is in residential area
of Bates-Hendricks,
741
00:29:22,328 --> 00:29:24,261
so we gotta make sure
it blends in
with the neighborhood,
742
00:29:24,296 --> 00:29:26,330
which will be tricky
since it's gonna be so big.
743
00:29:26,332 --> 00:29:30,200
So what we did is we've gone
as wide as you can go on it,
744
00:29:30,202 --> 00:29:32,636
and then what if we do
a gable front.
745
00:29:32,705 --> 00:29:34,805
-More like traditional
for residential home.
-Exactly.
746
00:29:34,807 --> 00:29:38,108
So if we come in
with a gable...
747
00:29:38,110 --> 00:29:39,710
You're so good at that.
748
00:29:39,712 --> 00:29:42,146
-[laughs]
-It's a really nice
straight line. Okay.
749
00:29:42,214 --> 00:29:44,481
I think we also wanna
look at how do you take
750
00:29:44,483 --> 00:29:47,050
that front facade
from being a flat piece.
751
00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:51,054
It may be that we say,
okay, let's bump out,
you know, a gable.
752
00:29:51,056 --> 00:29:54,558
Now we'd need to kind of match
the residential details
of the neighborhood.
753
00:29:54,627 --> 00:29:56,393
So you've got
your corner trim,
754
00:29:56,395 --> 00:29:58,962
you've got trim
underneath the gables,
755
00:29:59,031 --> 00:30:02,232
-trim around the windows,
nice thin profile...
-[Mina] Yeah.
756
00:30:02,334 --> 00:30:04,835
[Todd] ...double hung windows
so you can get fresh air in...
757
00:30:04,904 --> 00:30:07,104
They really know
how to give us
that home facade
758
00:30:07,106 --> 00:30:09,540
with the warehouse vibe that
we need to fit as many people
759
00:30:09,641 --> 00:30:11,809
and as much stuff
into this building as possible
760
00:30:11,811 --> 00:30:14,611
without it looking like
just a giant storage unit.
761
00:30:14,613 --> 00:30:17,781
You get the idea that
it's not a big cube, um,
762
00:30:17,783 --> 00:30:19,149
and it's gonna feel
like a home.
763
00:30:19,151 --> 00:30:21,485
I think your new building
is gonna look
something like that.
764
00:30:21,487 --> 00:30:22,953
-[MJ] I love it.
-I like it.
765
00:30:22,955 --> 00:30:24,755
This is definitely
next up in the queue.
766
00:30:24,857 --> 00:30:26,657
So if you guys
can start working on plans
767
00:30:26,758 --> 00:30:30,027
and we can get them
into the permitting process,
that'll be huge.
768
00:30:30,029 --> 00:30:32,062
-And we'll get some drawings.
-Can I take this one with us?
769
00:30:32,064 --> 00:30:34,064
Even showing just this
to the team,
they're gonna freak out.
770
00:30:34,066 --> 00:30:36,500
-Yeah.
-This is very...
This makes it very real.
771
00:30:36,502 --> 00:30:37,801
[Rod] Awesome.
772
00:30:37,803 --> 00:30:40,938
[slow rock song playing]
773
00:30:51,317 --> 00:30:53,650
[Mina] We're down
to the finishing touches
at Aliye's house.
774
00:30:56,655 --> 00:30:58,322
Our kitchen appliances
have been delivered
775
00:30:58,324 --> 00:31:00,057
and our marble backsplash
is in.
776
00:31:04,730 --> 00:31:07,197
Oh, you guys,
it's looking good.
777
00:31:07,199 --> 00:31:08,398
-How's it going?
-Oh, I love it.
778
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:09,799
This looks amazing.
779
00:31:09,801 --> 00:31:11,802
[Mina] And our custom counte
to ceiling cabinet is going
780
00:31:11,804 --> 00:31:15,005
to add the perfect touch
of warm natural wood
to this all white kitchen.
781
00:31:15,007 --> 00:31:16,139
Awesome.
782
00:31:16,241 --> 00:31:17,341
There we go.
783
00:31:17,442 --> 00:31:18,742
Should be ready
for the doors now
784
00:31:18,811 --> 00:31:21,044
and then we can check out
the hardware.
785
00:31:21,046 --> 00:31:22,212
[exhales]
786
00:31:22,214 --> 00:31:24,314
[Mina] It's so pretty.
787
00:31:24,316 --> 00:31:25,415
-Whoo!
-You know, I think--
788
00:31:25,417 --> 00:31:26,717
-That looks smoking.
-I love it.
789
00:31:26,719 --> 00:31:28,418
I think she's gonna love it.
790
00:31:28,420 --> 00:31:29,820

[Mina] As we near the end
of our little Adler house,
798
00:31:43,402 --> 00:31:46,937
mom is finishing up
her little lath wall
with a light whitewash.
799
00:31:46,939 --> 00:31:50,807
'Cause I watered it way down,
you still have the tonality,
which I like.
800
00:31:50,809 --> 00:31:53,610
-Yeah.
-But you don't lose
all of the distinct colors.
801
00:31:53,612 --> 00:31:56,380
-Yeah.
-I think it's gonna be good.
802
00:31:56,382 --> 00:31:59,316
[Mina] And now all that's le
to be done is landscaping..
803
00:31:59,318 --> 00:32:00,951
-Hello.
-Yay!
804
00:32:01,020 --> 00:32:03,220
[Mina] ...which will really
pull everything together.
805
00:32:03,222 --> 00:32:04,488
So we have five roses.
806
00:32:04,490 --> 00:32:07,057
We're gonna do
one juniper on that corner,
807
00:32:07,059 --> 00:32:10,560
one juniper on that corner,
one juniper on that corner.
808
00:32:10,629 --> 00:32:13,430
We're at
our little Adler house,
and we're doing the cutest,
809
00:32:13,432 --> 00:32:15,699
fastest landscaping
you've ever seen
810
00:32:15,701 --> 00:32:17,401
'cause it's a little
itty-bitty house,
811
00:32:17,403 --> 00:32:19,803
and it doesn't need
much to look amazing.
812
00:32:19,805 --> 00:32:21,204
Oh, what do you see?
813
00:32:21,206 --> 00:32:24,007
It's a tiny little house,
but we have to...
814
00:32:24,009 --> 00:32:25,742
we have to put plants
in it, right?
815
00:32:25,811 --> 00:32:27,511
We have to dig.
[growling]
816
00:32:27,513 --> 00:32:29,713
Come on, Adele.
Let's go dig some holes.
817
00:32:35,220 --> 00:32:39,556
When it's more than just me
and one other person,
it goes fast.
818
00:32:39,658 --> 00:32:41,325
I have all the helpers
in the world today.
819
00:32:41,327 --> 00:32:42,960
-Yeah.
-You had four helpers.
820
00:32:44,797 --> 00:32:47,531
[man 2] Oh, Adele,
you're trying to seek refuge
in some shade?
821
00:32:48,701 --> 00:32:50,400
It's like the finishing touch
of a house.
822
00:32:50,402 --> 00:32:53,303
It tells people
we really cared
about this house.
823
00:32:53,305 --> 00:32:54,604
-All right, we're done.
-We're done.
824
00:32:54,606 --> 00:32:55,772
-We did it.
-We're done.
825
00:32:55,774 --> 00:32:57,341
-That was so fast.
-That was
the quickest one yet.
826
00:32:57,442 --> 00:32:59,609
Killed it.
I know, right?
It's 'cause I had four of you.
827
00:33:07,453 --> 00:33:10,954
Got some roses to match
the roses we planted.
828
00:33:11,056 --> 00:33:12,723
We're wrapping up
Aliye's house today
829
00:33:12,725 --> 00:33:14,558
so we can show it
to her tomorrow.
830
00:33:14,659 --> 00:33:16,760
[MJ] And getting
that massive vanity
from the storage unit
831
00:33:16,829 --> 00:33:18,862
was an undertaking,
but it totally works
832
00:33:18,931 --> 00:33:21,598
and it's totally worth it
with the coastal
cottage vibes.
833
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:22,799
It's perfect.
834
00:33:22,801 --> 00:33:24,735
Was this super expensive
having this cut?
835
00:33:24,803 --> 00:33:27,437
This remnant
was probably 400 bucks.
836
00:33:27,506 --> 00:33:30,607
And that piece you wanted
to buy was like
several thousand dollars.
837
00:33:30,609 --> 00:33:31,708
And I like this better.
838
00:33:31,710 --> 00:33:33,643
I don't like how, uh,
much travel time
839
00:33:33,745 --> 00:33:35,545
it took to get it here,
but that's okay.
840
00:33:35,614 --> 00:33:38,682
We'll solve that eventually
with the new closer warehouse,
841
00:33:38,684 --> 00:33:40,317
maybe on this side
of town maybe...
842
00:33:40,319 --> 00:33:41,518
I've been working on it.
843
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,053
-...eventually, pretty soon.
-Yes.
844
00:33:43,122 --> 00:33:45,355
Saving money on things
like this is exactly
845
00:33:45,457 --> 00:33:47,124
the kind of smart moves
we need to be making
846
00:33:47,126 --> 00:33:49,726
to squirrel away
all the pennies
to build headquarters.
847
00:33:49,728 --> 00:33:51,228
So I'm really glad
this worked out.
848
00:33:52,331 --> 00:33:53,964
I like the blue.
849
00:33:54,033 --> 00:33:55,432
It's very, like, soothing.
850
00:33:55,501 --> 00:33:57,034
I feel like
it's a good study place.
851
00:33:57,036 --> 00:33:58,802
Homing.
852
00:33:58,804 --> 00:34:00,003
-Okay.
-I love it.
853
00:34:00,005 --> 00:34:01,605
I think she'll like it.
854
00:34:06,612 --> 00:34:07,711
All right.
855
00:34:07,713 --> 00:34:08,945
[MJ] I'm obsessed
with this thing.
856
00:34:09,014 --> 00:34:11,715
I... Legit, I think
I want one at my house.
857
00:34:11,717 --> 00:34:13,049
[MJ] Yeah.
858
00:34:13,051 --> 00:34:15,085
This is a small house,
so keeping everything light
859
00:34:15,087 --> 00:34:17,421
and airy will really help
make the space seem bigger.
860
00:34:17,423 --> 00:34:19,956
It's perfect for one person
and Aliye's is going to be
861
00:34:19,958 --> 00:34:22,526
a lovely addition
to our little corner
over here on Adler.
862
00:34:22,528 --> 00:34:24,428
She still has to sign
on the dotted line,
though, right?
863
00:34:24,430 --> 00:34:25,728
Yes.
864
00:34:25,730 --> 00:34:27,297
She's bringing her boyfrien
tomorrow and hopefully,
865
00:34:27,299 --> 00:34:29,533
she still likes it
when she sees it
and we're good to go.
866
00:34:29,634 --> 00:34:30,901
-[MJ] Last touch.
-Step stool.
867
00:34:30,903 --> 00:34:33,437
So, she can get
all this cute stuff
off the top.
868
00:34:33,538 --> 00:34:35,705
You know, or just make a climb
on her counter like I do.
869
00:34:35,707 --> 00:34:37,541
Okay.
870
00:34:37,642 --> 00:34:41,411
♪ It all starts
With one spark ♪
871
00:34:41,413 --> 00:34:44,748
♪ Let your color shine
Right from the heart ♪
872
00:34:47,419 --> 00:34:48,618
-[Mina] Good morning.
-Hi.
873
00:34:48,620 --> 00:34:49,820
-Hello.
-[Karen] How are you?
874
00:34:49,822 --> 00:34:51,121
-Come on, guys.
-All right.
875
00:34:51,123 --> 00:34:53,323
It's been a little while
since you've been here, right?
876
00:34:53,325 --> 00:34:55,058
Yes. I'm so excited to see it.
877
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,626
-It looks a little different.
-Oh, wow!
878
00:35:02,034 --> 00:35:03,233
Wow!
879
00:35:03,302 --> 00:35:04,401
Oh, my gosh.
880
00:35:04,403 --> 00:35:06,736
It looks amazing.
I love the blue door.
881
00:35:08,607 --> 00:35:11,408
I think it just looks
really welcoming and bright.
882
00:35:11,410 --> 00:35:14,111
Originally, the entire,
I don't know,
it was, probably,
883
00:35:14,113 --> 00:35:17,614
15 feet was exterior
front porch and the door
was on the side.
884
00:35:17,616 --> 00:35:19,483
With not being able to see
the door isn't super invitin
885
00:35:19,485 --> 00:35:20,850
[Aliye] Yeah.
886
00:35:20,852 --> 00:35:22,619
So we were able
to get some more
square footage inside
887
00:35:22,621 --> 00:35:25,188
without having to add
an addition and then also get
888
00:35:25,190 --> 00:35:27,824
the front porch
a little more welcoming
with the door on the front.
889
00:35:27,826 --> 00:35:28,925
[Aliye] Yeah. I love it.
890
00:35:28,927 --> 00:35:30,560
And I love the wreath
and all the flowers.
891
00:35:30,662 --> 00:35:31,728
You did a great job, Karen.
892
00:35:31,730 --> 00:35:32,929
-[chuckles]
-Thank you.
893
00:35:32,931 --> 00:35:34,631
And landscaping makes
a big difference, doesn't it?
894
00:35:34,633 --> 00:35:35,799
[Aliye] It does. It does.
895
00:35:35,801 --> 00:35:37,100
Last time,
it was all covered up
896
00:35:37,102 --> 00:35:38,502
and there was
no landscaping really, so.
897
00:35:38,504 --> 00:35:40,303
-[Karen] Right.
-[Claude]
Grass does wonders.
898
00:35:40,305 --> 00:35:42,239
-[Aliye] It looks awesome.
-[Karen] Yeah.
Grass is lovely.
899
00:35:42,307 --> 00:35:44,307
It's just like laying down
like a fresh rug,
fresh carpeting.
900
00:35:44,309 --> 00:35:46,343
Absolutely.
901
00:35:46,411 --> 00:35:49,346
[Mina] We went
with the, like,
composite shake.
902
00:35:49,447 --> 00:35:52,315
It's a more expensive product,
but I really wanted
to do it somewhere,
903
00:35:52,317 --> 00:35:53,383
so it made sense here.
904
00:35:53,385 --> 00:35:54,518
[Aliye] Yeah.
905
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,119
[Mina] And paired that
with the black windows
906
00:35:56,121 --> 00:35:58,455
to kind of give it like
the seaside, but urban vibe.
907
00:35:58,557 --> 00:36:00,323
-[Aliye] Yeah.
-[Claude] Definitely
your vibe.
908
00:36:00,325 --> 00:36:01,958
[Aliye] It's...
it's 100% my vibe. Yeah.
909
00:36:02,027 --> 00:36:04,461
-[Mina] All right.
You wanna go see the inside?
-For sure.
910
00:36:10,002 --> 00:36:11,401
-[Mina] You ready?
-[Aliye] Yes.
911
00:36:11,403 --> 00:36:12,903
[Mina] All right.
912
00:36:12,905 --> 00:36:14,204
[gasping]
913
00:36:14,206 --> 00:36:16,940
-Oh, whoa!
-Oh, my gosh!
914
00:36:17,009 --> 00:36:18,308
Wow!
915
00:36:24,750 --> 00:36:26,516
[Mina] All right.
916
00:36:26,518 --> 00:36:27,617
[gasping]
917
00:36:27,619 --> 00:36:30,420
-Oh, whoa!
-Oh, my gosh!
918
00:36:30,422 --> 00:36:32,022
Wow!
919
00:36:37,162 --> 00:36:39,362
-Look at the wall!
-[Claude] Looks amazing.
920
00:36:39,431 --> 00:36:41,398
-[Karen]
Look at your wall, girl!
-[Claude] Oh wow!
921
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:42,599
-It's amazing.
-[Karen] Right?
922
00:36:42,601 --> 00:36:44,734
-It looks so, so good.
-[Karen] Yeah.
923
00:36:44,836 --> 00:36:46,436
-[Aliye] Adds a lot
of texture...
-[Karen] Yes.
924
00:36:46,505 --> 00:36:48,905
[Aliye] ...and it used up
all that old lath that
we saved from the house.
925
00:36:48,907 --> 00:36:50,406
[Mina] Did you use all of it?
926
00:36:50,408 --> 00:36:52,309
-[Aliye] Uh, I don't know
if we used all of it.
-No, no, no, no. No.
927
00:36:52,311 --> 00:36:54,110
It's at our warehouse.
There's still lots of lath.
928
00:36:54,112 --> 00:36:56,112
-So you can make
more things out of lath.
-We can get more.
929
00:36:56,114 --> 00:36:57,614
-Yes.
-Yeah.
930
00:36:57,616 --> 00:36:59,416
-So you can see right here,
this was the porch.
-[Aliye] Yes.
931
00:36:59,418 --> 00:37:01,017
-Okay.
-[Mina] All of this.
932
00:37:01,019 --> 00:37:02,585
-[Aliye] Wow!
-[Mina] And the door
was kind of right there.
933
00:37:02,621 --> 00:37:04,955
-[Aliye] Yes. Okay.
-So we didn't get another
bedroom by closing it in.
934
00:37:05,023 --> 00:37:07,057
But you have like an entry way
and enough room
for a sideboard...
935
00:37:07,158 --> 00:37:08,291
A window.
936
00:37:08,293 --> 00:37:09,960
...and you're not walking
into a wall or a hallway.
937
00:37:09,962 --> 00:37:13,029
Before, you would have been
walking right into this wall,
which is not inspiring.
938
00:37:13,031 --> 00:37:14,231
[Aliye] Right.
939
00:37:14,233 --> 00:37:16,032
[Mina] Seemed like
it's functional,
but not inspiring.
940
00:37:16,034 --> 00:37:17,834
Now you walk in
and you kind of see
941
00:37:17,936 --> 00:37:19,336
all the pretty things
in the house.
942
00:37:19,437 --> 00:37:21,037
Yeah.
943
00:37:21,039 --> 00:37:23,139
I'll show you the living room
and kind of how we reworked
the floorplan.
944
00:37:30,515 --> 00:37:31,715
Wow!
945
00:37:31,717 --> 00:37:34,251
Oh, my gosh.
I love the lights.
946
00:37:34,352 --> 00:37:37,087
So white and bright
and brassy.
947
00:37:37,089 --> 00:37:38,321
-I love it.
-Yes, and brassy.
948
00:37:38,323 --> 00:37:39,723
-Perfect.
-[Aliye] Yes. [Aliye laughing]
949
00:37:39,725 --> 00:37:42,325
So this actually...
this back chunk
was the kitchen.
950
00:37:42,327 --> 00:37:44,728
It was very tragic.
It was like faux brick.
951
00:37:44,730 --> 00:37:47,230
But now you have a nice
and bright living room.
952
00:37:47,232 --> 00:37:49,099
There's so many windows
for how little the house is.
953
00:37:49,101 --> 00:37:52,802
-I love the windows.
-Lots of natural light.
954
00:37:52,804 --> 00:37:56,406
And I think just a really,
a functional little
kitchen aisle if you wanna...
955
00:37:56,408 --> 00:37:57,807
-For sure.
-Yeah. Go check it out.
956
00:37:57,809 --> 00:37:59,609
Yeah. Wow!
957
00:38:06,618 --> 00:38:08,618
I love that cabinet.
958
00:38:08,620 --> 00:38:10,153
[Karen] You need to see
how those doors feel.
959
00:38:10,221 --> 00:38:11,821
I love open shelving.
960
00:38:11,823 --> 00:38:14,257
But I like that it's open,
but it's still closed.
961
00:38:14,293 --> 00:38:16,326
[Karen] It's all movable,
so you can adjust them
962
00:38:16,328 --> 00:38:17,994
for whatever your guy's
needs are.
963
00:38:17,996 --> 00:38:19,529
There's actually an outlet.
964
00:38:19,531 --> 00:38:21,498
So if you wanted
your coffeemaker in there
965
00:38:21,500 --> 00:38:22,832
or your toaster
or anything like that.
966
00:38:22,934 --> 00:38:24,734
[Aliye] And the wood color
is gorgeous.
967
00:38:24,836 --> 00:38:25,868
So pretty.
968
00:38:25,904 --> 00:38:27,437
Not to take from this,
but I love the island.
969
00:38:27,506 --> 00:38:28,905
[Karen] Fantastic, isn't it?
970
00:38:28,907 --> 00:38:31,308
And the storage right there,
I put all my pots
and pans there...
971
00:38:31,310 --> 00:38:33,043
-[Aliye] Perfect.
-...and my ugly dishes.
972
00:38:33,111 --> 00:38:35,111
Out of sight. Out of sight.
Put the pretty ones in here.
973
00:38:35,113 --> 00:38:36,413
-Absolutely.
-Yeah.
974
00:38:36,415 --> 00:38:38,214
[Karen] Where the kitchen
is now there used to be
975
00:38:38,216 --> 00:38:41,117
a dining room with the one
and only bathroom off
the back wall,
976
00:38:41,119 --> 00:38:42,352
and now that
we've reconfigured
977
00:38:42,454 --> 00:38:44,421
the floorplan,
this is quite a nice kitchen
978
00:38:44,423 --> 00:38:46,690
No, I love it.
And I love the sink.
979
00:38:46,692 --> 00:38:49,125
That would be so good
when I'm prepping
and I love to cook, so...
980
00:38:49,127 --> 00:38:50,593
-[Mina] Oh, good.
-[Aliye] ...lots of space.
981
00:38:50,595 --> 00:38:52,262
This is perfect prep space.
982
00:38:52,264 --> 00:38:55,932
So you do have a lot of space
and it's all, like,
in close proximity.
983
00:38:56,034 --> 00:38:58,201
So here, if you're cooking
and entertaining
984
00:38:58,203 --> 00:39:00,236
and making cocktails
and there's people out back,
985
00:39:00,338 --> 00:39:03,173
it's all just so close that
you're not feeling left out.
986
00:39:03,175 --> 00:39:04,741
[Karen] So let's go
to the backyard.
987
00:39:12,250 --> 00:39:14,417
-[Claude] Oh, wow!
-So this is your backyard.
988
00:39:14,419 --> 00:39:15,919
This looks amazing.
989
00:39:18,423 --> 00:39:19,956
Wow! Oh, my gosh!
990
00:39:20,024 --> 00:39:21,858
This is like
the perfect place to just...
991
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:25,128
-[Mina] Right?
-...hang out, study,
have a tea.
992
00:39:25,130 --> 00:39:26,762
That'll be perfect.
993
00:39:26,764 --> 00:39:29,032
[Mina] Before the renovation
this backyard
was pretty rough.
994
00:39:29,034 --> 00:39:30,800
No fence, no patio.
995
00:39:30,802 --> 00:39:33,903
And now you have
your own private
outdoor space in the city.
996
00:39:33,905 --> 00:39:35,004
And I love the grass.
997
00:39:35,006 --> 00:39:37,440
Extra green space
was always a good idea.
998
00:39:37,542 --> 00:39:39,042
But it is a nice
sized backyard.
999
00:39:39,044 --> 00:39:41,311
You don't expect it
when you see
how tiny the house is.
1000
00:39:41,313 --> 00:39:42,645
All right.
1001
00:39:42,714 --> 00:39:44,347
We're gonna go back inside
and show you guys
the bedrooms.
1002
00:39:44,416 --> 00:39:45,815
Okay.
1003
00:39:50,922 --> 00:39:52,021
-Wow!
-Wow!
1004
00:39:52,023 --> 00:39:53,423
Oh, my gosh!
1005
00:39:54,526 --> 00:39:56,459
I love this. The desk in here.
That's perfect.
1006
00:39:56,528 --> 00:39:58,395
-[Claude] I love the color.
-[Aliye] Yep.
1007
00:39:58,397 --> 00:40:00,262
[Mina] There's only
one bedroom.
1008
00:40:00,264 --> 00:40:02,799
So this would have been a pa
of the living room right of
the front door.
1009
00:40:02,801 --> 00:40:04,501
But because we closed
in the front porch,
1010
00:40:04,503 --> 00:40:07,303
we were able to wall this of
to get a bedroom.
1011
00:40:07,305 --> 00:40:08,838
So we set it up as an office.
1012
00:40:08,907 --> 00:40:12,242
So, you know, I know
you're still doing some...
some bookwork and whatnot.
1013
00:40:12,310 --> 00:40:14,043
[Aliye] That's awesome.
1014
00:40:14,045 --> 00:40:15,445
[Mina] You guys wanna
go see your bedroom?
1015
00:40:15,514 --> 00:40:17,046
Yes.
1016
00:40:23,722 --> 00:40:26,356
And the main ensuite.
1017
00:40:26,425 --> 00:40:28,458
Wow! Oh, my gosh.
1018
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,461
-[Claude] Wow!
-[Aliye] This is beautiful!
1019
00:40:31,530 --> 00:40:33,396
Glad you said
you like the blue
in the other bedroom, too,
1020
00:40:33,398 --> 00:40:35,598
'cause obviously
this is the same color.
1021
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,300
You and I just disappear
up against this wall.
1022
00:40:37,302 --> 00:40:38,501
-Yeah.
-[laughter]
1023
00:40:38,503 --> 00:40:39,902
They can't even see us.
1024
00:40:39,904 --> 00:40:41,604
-[Mina] So we have
a queen sized bed in here...
-[Aliye] Cool.
1025
00:40:41,606 --> 00:40:43,506
[Mina] ...um, which you could
fit a king if you wanted,
1026
00:40:43,508 --> 00:40:45,175
but you have room
for, like, a nice side table.
1027
00:40:45,177 --> 00:40:46,509
[Aliye] Yeah.
1028
00:40:46,511 --> 00:40:48,211
You could put
a tallboy dresser
if you need that as well.
1029
00:40:48,213 --> 00:40:49,412
-[Aliye] Yeah.
-Good closet space.
1030
00:40:49,414 --> 00:40:51,047
This was already
a bedroom space
up on the front,
1031
00:40:51,116 --> 00:40:52,449
but there wasn't
a bathroom up here,
1032
00:40:52,550 --> 00:40:54,050
so we pretty much
had to chop out
1033
00:40:54,052 --> 00:40:56,719
a whole chunk to be able
to get this ensuite bathroom
1034
00:40:56,721 --> 00:40:59,522
-[Aliye] Okay.
-Uh, and I... You'll see
when you go in there, um,
1035
00:40:59,524 --> 00:41:02,959
you do have a tub shower,
having a tub is...
it's just important, so...
1036
00:41:02,961 --> 00:41:04,060
Yeah.
1037
00:41:04,062 --> 00:41:05,728
...we made it happen
if you wanna go check it out.
1038
00:41:05,730 --> 00:41:07,630
-It's the cutest little tub
you've ever seen.
-[laughter]
1039
00:41:07,632 --> 00:41:09,232
-A soaker.
-[Karen laughs]
1040
00:41:13,939 --> 00:41:16,039
Oh, wow!
This looks amazing!
1041
00:41:16,041 --> 00:41:19,209
Wow! This is awesome!
And I love the double vanity.
1042
00:41:19,211 --> 00:41:21,211
[Mina] They're about,
uh, 15, 16 inches,
1043
00:41:21,213 --> 00:41:23,713
and they just fit
the scale of the space
a little bit better.
1044
00:41:23,715 --> 00:41:25,014
[Aliye] Yeah. They're so cute.
1045
00:41:25,016 --> 00:41:26,549
And I love that
we have two sinks in here.
1046
00:41:26,618 --> 00:41:28,218
That's good.
1047
00:41:28,220 --> 00:41:30,954
Let's go back out
to the kitchen and chitchat.
1048
00:41:31,022 --> 00:41:32,255
Okay.
1049
00:41:39,030 --> 00:41:41,331
So, you obviously already have
the home under contract.
1050
00:41:41,333 --> 00:41:42,398
Yes.
1051
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,501
Um, and I think
I got an email literally
1052
00:41:44,503 --> 00:41:46,436
this morning about
our close date
Friday next week.
1053
00:41:46,505 --> 00:41:49,038
-Yes.
-So you're still on the hook,
I'm assuming.
1054
00:41:49,140 --> 00:41:50,240
I am on the hook. 100%.
1055
00:41:50,341 --> 00:41:51,941
-[Mina] Okay. All right.
-Even more so now.
1056
00:41:52,010 --> 00:41:53,409
Oh, she's totally buying
this house.
1057
00:41:53,411 --> 00:41:55,578
There's no way
she's walking away
from this deal.
1058
00:41:55,580 --> 00:41:58,414
She loves every single thing
about this house.
1059
00:41:58,416 --> 00:42:00,817
[Mina] So I bought
this house for 34,000.
1060
00:42:00,819 --> 00:42:05,021
The renovation budget,
we hung around 130,000.
1061
00:42:05,023 --> 00:42:10,960
So we're at about 165, all i
and it's under contract
for 204,000.
1062
00:42:11,062 --> 00:42:13,429
This is our third property
that we will have renovated
1063
00:42:13,431 --> 00:42:16,099
and sold in this
southern chunk
of the Old Southside,
1064
00:42:16,101 --> 00:42:17,800
which is really exciting.
1065
00:42:19,538 --> 00:42:22,405
Well, I'm really glad that
furnished this looks...
1066
00:42:22,407 --> 00:42:24,541
It all works,
you're loving it.
1067
00:42:24,642 --> 00:42:25,842
You'll be in and out, right?
1068
00:42:25,911 --> 00:42:27,210
'Cause you're still
a busy bee.
1069
00:42:27,212 --> 00:42:29,012
Well, probably more
in than out
'cause I love this place.
1070
00:42:29,014 --> 00:42:31,247
-[laughter]
-All right. Good.
1071
00:42:31,349 --> 00:42:33,216
I'm glad
that's a selling point
for your Indy visits.
1072
00:42:33,218 --> 00:42:34,851
He didn't say
because I love her.
1073
00:42:34,953 --> 00:42:37,020
-Right, right. Right.
-[Karen] He didn't say that.
1074
00:42:37,022 --> 00:42:38,421
He loves the house,
which I'm okay with.
1075
00:42:38,423 --> 00:42:40,256
You're in the doghouse.
You're in the doghouse.
1076
00:42:40,292 --> 00:42:42,825
And the best news of all,
I think this is the last drop
1077
00:42:42,827 --> 00:42:44,060
in the bucket for us
to be able
1078
00:42:44,128 --> 00:42:45,862
to start construction
on headquarters.
1079
00:42:45,931 --> 00:42:48,364
I mean, I remember
when it was just
the two of us.
1080
00:42:48,433 --> 00:42:49,799
Look how far it's come.
1081
00:42:49,801 --> 00:42:51,434
It's definitely been
a long time coming
1082
00:42:51,503 --> 00:42:53,202
and I cannot wait
to get started,
1083
00:42:53,204 --> 00:42:55,338
and thanks
to this last little house,
we can.
