-You could do a plunge pool.
2
00:00:04,166 --> 00:00:05,266
No, I want
a bigger pool.
3
00:00:05,266 --> 00:00:06,266
You don't even swim.
4
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,567

time ever,

00:00:08,567 --> 00:00:11,000

This is why you bought

[narrator] It's House Hunters
on a whole other level.
19
00:00:34,867 --> 00:00:36,000
Let the house search begin.
20
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,934
Yes. This is fun.
21
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,066
Oh, yes.
22
00:00:40,066 --> 00:00:42,166
[narrator] Tonight
in Tampa Bay, Florida,
23
00:00:42,166 --> 00:00:43,800
Mika and Brian Kleinschmidt,
24
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,500
from 100 Day Dream Home ,
25
00:00:45,500 --> 00:00:47,867
need to find
the perfect house
for a couple
26
00:00:47,867 --> 00:00:49,066
that can't even
agree on
27
00:00:49,066 --> 00:00:50,967
whether to build
or buy.
28
00:00:50,967 --> 00:00:53,000
You can get
whatever you want.
29
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,433
My head wants
to explode.
30
00:01:04,967 --> 00:01:07,233
[lively music playing]
31
00:01:08,100 --> 00:01:10,166
[Mika] I like kind of
the hexagon vibe here.
32
00:01:10,166 --> 00:01:11,767
[Brian] The hexagons
make me think of
stop signs, though.
33
00:01:11,767 --> 00:01:13,100
It's like, when somebody
walks into a house,
34
00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:14,467
You don't wanna say stop,
You wanna want to say,
35
00:01:14,467 --> 00:01:15,600
like welcome, not stop.
36
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,100
Today, I am super excited.
37
00:01:17,100 --> 00:01:19,967
We are in the Tampa Bay area,
which is the community
38
00:01:19,967 --> 00:01:21,667
that Brian and I
absolutely love,
39
00:01:21,667 --> 00:01:22,767
to help Skip and Randy
40
00:01:22,767 --> 00:01:24,100
go from Florida vacationers
41
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:26,066
to full time
Florida residents.
42
00:01:26,066 --> 00:01:28,600
Randy and Skip
raised their families
in Indiana,
43
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:29,767
but now their kids
are grown
44
00:01:29,767 --> 00:01:33,000
and Skip got
a full time job here
in the Tampa Bay area.
45
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,266
We need a bigger place
46
00:01:34,266 --> 00:01:35,300
[Randy] like yours.
47
00:01:35,300 --> 00:01:36,867
A house that
I can work on.
48
00:01:36,867 --> 00:01:39,166
This is the kind of work
I want to do
is lifting this.
49
00:01:39,166 --> 00:01:40,867
[everyone chuckling]
50
00:01:40,867 --> 00:01:42,166
[narrator] Since,
the Tampa Bay area
51
00:01:42,166 --> 00:01:44,000
offers the ability
to renovate
52
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:44,867
or build new,
53
00:01:44,867 --> 00:01:46,867
they called Mika
and Brian.
54
00:01:46,867 --> 00:01:48,667
We've done renovation,
we've done new construction.
55
00:01:48,667 --> 00:01:50,500
[Brian] We can
help them either way,
they want to go.
56
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:51,967
-[Mika] What's going on?
-[woman] Hi.
57
00:01:51,967 --> 00:01:53,500
[Brian] Sean and Will's
dream home
58
00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:54,967

of the oven
59
00:01:54,967 --> 00:01:56,300
hundred days from now.

Patty cake,
Baker Man.
61
00:01:58,567 --> 00:02:00,667
-Make us a house
as fast as you can.
-[Mika] Yeah.
62
00:02:00,667 --> 00:02:03,000
[woman] Oh, look at it.
I love it.
63
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,467
-Beautiful.
-[man] Yeah, it is.
64
00:02:04,467 --> 00:02:06,000
With me being
a real estate agent
65
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,100
and our background
at building houses
66
00:02:07,100 --> 00:02:08,000
in a hundred days,
67
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,266
there is no better team
68
00:02:09,266 --> 00:02:10,867
to help Randy and Skip
find their dream home.
69
00:02:10,867 --> 00:02:13,700
I'll be so glad
to have their input.
70
00:02:13,700 --> 00:02:16,066
You and I just can't seem
to agree on...
71
00:02:16,066 --> 00:02:18,100
anything, as per usual.
72
00:02:18,100 --> 00:02:20,867
[pop music playing]
73
00:02:20,867 --> 00:02:23,867
-[Mika] Hello there, guys.
-[Brian] There they are.
74
00:02:23,867 --> 00:02:25,166
-[Randy] How are you?
-[Mika] Welcome.
75
00:02:25,166 --> 00:02:25,834
Step into our office.
76
00:02:25,834 --> 00:02:27,400
[Mika] Yes.
Come on in, guys.
77
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,467
So it's got that
78
00:02:28,467 --> 00:02:30,367
open concept that
you always wanted.
79
00:02:30,367 --> 00:02:31,900
[Randy] It's definitely
open concept.
80
00:02:31,900 --> 00:02:34,900
Randy's looking all around
with his notebook
in hand...
81
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:36,100
[Skip] He's seeing
dollar signs.
82
00:02:36,100 --> 00:02:37,367
[Mika] Yeah,
I don't see
the notebook.
83
00:02:37,367 --> 00:02:38,300
That's exactly what
I'm seeing.
84
00:02:38,300 --> 00:02:40,266
Mr. Emotional.
Mr. Analytic.
85
00:02:40,266 --> 00:02:41,166
I kind of like it.
86
00:02:41,166 --> 00:02:42,867
Well, don't judge our office
87
00:02:42,867 --> 00:02:44,467
because we've got a...
88
00:02:44,467 --> 00:02:46,266
here a little area
that you all can sit.
89
00:02:46,266 --> 00:02:47,800
[Randy] A bench
and bucket.
90
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,100
[Mika] And... yeah.
91
00:02:49,100 --> 00:02:50,300
[Randy] I love it.
Oh, my goodness.
92
00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:51,967
-Comfortable, right?
-[Randy] It is.
93
00:02:51,967 --> 00:02:53,900
[Mika] Tell us
a little bit about
where you guys are at.
94
00:02:53,900 --> 00:02:56,166
You're staying
in your vacation, which...
95
00:02:56,166 --> 00:02:57,200
in the vacation house?
96
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,667
Yes, just north
of St. Petersburg.
97
00:02:59,667 --> 00:03:01,367
It's about
a 1200-square-foot house.
98
00:03:01,367 --> 00:03:02,700
So, kind of tight.
99
00:03:02,700 --> 00:03:05,000
[narrator] Since
they're moving
to the area permanently.
100
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,767
They're selling
their vacation house
101
00:03:06,767 --> 00:03:08,100
so they can find
a bigger home
102
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:10,166
with enough room
for their four kids
103
00:03:10,166 --> 00:03:11,400
when they visit.
104
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,300
Now we just have
to figure out
105
00:03:12,300 --> 00:03:13,467
what that permanent home
is going to be.
106
00:03:13,467 --> 00:03:15,266
-It's gonna be
new construction?
-Oh, yeah.
107
00:03:15,266 --> 00:03:16,400
Or renovation?
108
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,367
We have been under renovation
since we've been together.
109
00:03:18,367 --> 00:03:20,367
Every home
we've lived in
has been kitchens
110
00:03:20,367 --> 00:03:23,000
bathrooms, flooring,
everything.
111
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,200
So, I am really
leaning toward
112
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,934
moving in
with my toothbrush
113
00:03:26,300 --> 00:03:27,367
and my suitcase
114
00:03:27,367 --> 00:03:28,600
and maybe
paint a wall.
115
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,166
Renovations don't bother me,
because typically
116
00:03:30,166 --> 00:03:32,400
you're gonna get
a better bang
for your buck with it, sister.
117
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,467
-Mmmh.
-Okay, sometimes
that's true.
118
00:03:34,467 --> 00:03:36,166
A lot of people,
you know, like renovations
119
00:03:36,166 --> 00:03:37,166
'cause it's quicker
120
00:03:37,166 --> 00:03:38,800
but that's because
they haven't met us.
121
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,000
I mean, we can build
a new construction house,
122
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,266
in about the same amount
of time as the renovation.
123
00:03:43,266 --> 00:03:45,367
[Mika] I think once
you guys start
seeing stuff,
124
00:03:45,367 --> 00:03:47,066
you're gonna lean
one way or the other.
125
00:03:47,066 --> 00:03:48,166
-At least we're hoping.
-Right.
126
00:03:48,166 --> 00:03:50,834
I'd love to hear
from you guys
a little bit more about...
127
00:03:51,367 --> 00:03:53,000
I guess
the most important
128
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,700
aspects to you
in this home.
129
00:03:54,700 --> 00:03:56,967
We'd like to be
close to...
130
00:03:56,967 --> 00:03:58,867
St. Petersburg,
downtown St. Petersburg.
131
00:03:58,867 --> 00:04:00,166
We've been here now
three years,
132
00:04:00,166 --> 00:04:01,600
so we've kind of
got accustomed
133
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:02,867
to going to the same places.
134
00:04:02,867 --> 00:04:04,767
Definitely three
to four bedrooms.
135
00:04:04,767 --> 00:04:06,100
Ah, five would
be amazing.
136
00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:08,767
Just because we have
a very large blended family.
137
00:04:08,767 --> 00:04:10,166
What kind of style
do you guys like?
138
00:04:10,166 --> 00:04:11,467
Are you on the same page
with that?
139
00:04:11,467 --> 00:04:13,166
[both] Close, close.
140
00:04:13,166 --> 00:04:14,934
[Randy] I like
mid-century homes.
141
00:04:15,567 --> 00:04:17,100
I like funky colors.
142
00:04:17,100 --> 00:04:18,367
I think that's cool.
143
00:04:18,367 --> 00:04:20,900
For me, it's simple colors,
that plays better
144
00:04:20,900 --> 00:04:23,000
when you've got
a contemporary home.
145
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,100
So somewhere
in the middle of that.
146
00:04:24,100 --> 00:04:26,166
[Randy] Yeah, you could blend
one with the other
147
00:04:26,166 --> 00:04:27,767
You can save us
and save our marriage.
148
00:04:27,767 --> 00:04:28,567
[Brian] Just saying.
149
00:04:28,567 --> 00:04:30,266
[everybody chuckling]
150
00:04:30,266 --> 00:04:32,567
Other things that
we don't necessarily
agree on...
151
00:04:32,567 --> 00:04:34,900
I would prefer to be
all on one floor.
152
00:04:34,900 --> 00:04:37,500
I think we'll get more space
by going up two stories.
153
00:04:37,500 --> 00:04:39,967
You have high cowboy boots
and he's got flats.
154
00:04:39,967 --> 00:04:41,266
[Randy laughing]
155
00:04:41,266 --> 00:04:43,000
So, you you don't mind
being elevated?
156
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,066
Not at all.
157
00:04:44,066 --> 00:04:45,266
[Skip] I'm happy
to go up there.
[Randy] There you go.
158
00:04:45,266 --> 00:04:46,166
[chuckling]
159
00:04:46,166 --> 00:04:47,500
[Skip] Ultimately,
a pool.
160
00:04:47,500 --> 00:04:50,200
which may push us
over seven hundred thousand.
161
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:51,700
No! Oh, my gosh, no.
162
00:04:51,700 --> 00:04:55,367
I would prefer
to be seven-hundred max.
163
00:04:55,367 --> 00:04:58,867
He's more comfortable,
seven-hundred-ish.
164
00:04:58,867 --> 00:05:00,266
[Skip] Hmm, yeah so...
165
00:05:00,266 --> 00:05:01,367
"Ish" can be expensive.
166
00:05:01,367 --> 00:05:04,367
Ish is the variant that
I'm not comfortable with,
167
00:05:04,367 --> 00:05:06,166
So, I'd rather be
seven-hundred all in.
168
00:05:06,166 --> 00:05:09,000
So the Florida market,
it might be a little bit
different than Indiana.
169
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,467
We kind of live
where everybody else
vacations, right?
170
00:05:11,467 --> 00:05:12,300
[Randy] Yeah, right.
171
00:05:12,300 --> 00:05:14,367
So I do think
it's gonna be competitive.
172
00:05:14,367 --> 00:05:16,367
There might have
o be a little bit
of compromise.
173
00:05:16,367 --> 00:05:18,867
I cannot wait to go
on some field trips
with you guys
174
00:05:18,867 --> 00:05:20,200
and do an old scavenger hunt.
175
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,467
Help me sway him
toward new construction.
176
00:05:22,467 --> 00:05:23,467
Yeah, Big sway.
177
00:05:23,467 --> 00:05:24,867
[chuckles] We'll get there.
178
00:05:24,867 --> 00:05:26,066
-All right.
-We'll get there.
179
00:05:27,767 --> 00:05:29,867
[narrator] Mika and Brian
are kicking off the search
180
00:05:29,867 --> 00:05:31,200
with a newly constructed home
181
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,266
in the guys' preferred city
of St. Petersburg.
182
00:05:34,266 --> 00:05:36,767
We don't care
how many houses
we have to show you.
183
00:05:36,767 --> 00:05:40,100
We will make sure
we find the perfect one.
So don't be worried.
184
00:05:40,100 --> 00:05:42,867
I feel like work done
in a timely manner.
I mean,
185
00:05:42,867 --> 00:05:45,300
we're always up
for a challenge of building
a house pretty quickly.
186
00:05:45,300 --> 00:05:47,467
So, I think we can find
a house pretty quickly.
187
00:05:47,467 --> 00:05:49,367
We've been called
a challenge before.
188
00:05:49,367 --> 00:05:50,567
[laughing]
189
00:05:50,567 --> 00:05:51,767
You are gonna love
where we're going today,
190
00:05:51,767 --> 00:05:53,467
'cause we are pretty close...
191
00:05:53,467 --> 00:05:54,900
-to downtown St Pete.
-Yes.
192
00:05:54,900 --> 00:05:56,266
[Randy] Which is awesome.
193
00:05:56,266 --> 00:06:00,166
[upbeat music playing]
194
00:06:00,166 --> 00:06:01,767
[Randy] Wow,
this is different.
195
00:06:01,767 --> 00:06:02,800
[Brian chuckles]
196
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,367
-I like it.
-All right, that's
that's a good start.
197
00:06:05,367 --> 00:06:06,867
[Randy] I like
the big windows
198
00:06:06,867 --> 00:06:09,200
and the fact that
it's a one-story
as opposed to two.
199
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,867
I like the grand entry.
200
00:06:10,867 --> 00:06:12,266
I'm not crazy
about the color.
201
00:06:12,266 --> 00:06:13,667
What do you think about
the color, Randy?
202
00:06:13,667 --> 00:06:15,166
It doesn't bother me
so much.
203
00:06:15,166 --> 00:06:16,900
Finding
a new-construction home
204
00:06:16,900 --> 00:06:18,266
on a decent sized lot
205
00:06:18,266 --> 00:06:21,567
[Brian] this close
to downtown St. Pete
is extremely rare.
206
00:06:21,567 --> 00:06:23,200
I think the paint
is actually still drying.
207
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,667
So, we wanted
Skip and Randy
to check it out
208
00:06:25,667 --> 00:06:27,467
before this one
is completely gone.
209
00:06:27,467 --> 00:06:29,467
[Randy] Ohh, polished.
210
00:06:29,467 --> 00:06:31,700
[Mika] It's listed
at 699,000.
211
00:06:31,700 --> 00:06:33,867
Three bedrooms.
It's got two bathrooms
212
00:06:33,867 --> 00:06:35,100
and an office.
213
00:06:35,100 --> 00:06:36,266
[Randy] Is this
porcelain tile?
214
00:06:36,266 --> 00:06:37,300
[Mika] These look
like porcelain.
215
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:38,567
They're very shiny.
216
00:06:38,567 --> 00:06:39,634
It's really, really pretty.
217
00:06:39,634 --> 00:06:41,600
[Brian] And I like how
they angled them
in the house.
218
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,900
-So, it's not just straight
straight lines.
-[Skip] Yeah.
219
00:06:43,900 --> 00:06:46,200
[Randy] It's just
a little bland.
220
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:47,967
I liked the feeling
as soon as I walked in.
221
00:06:47,967 --> 00:06:49,567
[Skip] I'm like, okay.
I could see this.
222
00:06:49,567 --> 00:06:52,266
I love the fact that
it has curved windows
223
00:06:52,266 --> 00:06:53,467
and a grand entrance,
224
00:06:53,467 --> 00:06:55,567
almost like
a two-story entrance
225
00:06:55,567 --> 00:06:57,400
And the really tall doors.
226
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,400
[Randy] Nice, nice, nice,
great space.
227
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,800
The white shaker cabinets
I don't really care for.
228
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:02,967
It's pretty bland.
229
00:07:02,967 --> 00:07:03,867
Love the counters.
230
00:07:03,867 --> 00:07:05,467
Yeah, this is...
this is marble.
231
00:07:05,467 --> 00:07:06,700
[Brian] Do you like
that backsplash?
232
00:07:06,700 --> 00:07:08,867
[Skip] I'd rather be
a little more neutral
with the backsplash.
233
00:07:08,867 --> 00:07:10,000
To me, it's too busy
to get--
234
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,500
Oh, I don't...
I don't agree.
235
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:12,867
-I think this was--
-Really, Randy?
236
00:07:12,867 --> 00:07:14,166
The col-- yeah.
237
00:07:14,166 --> 00:07:15,900
[Brain] He just doesn't
want to spend money
replacing them.
238
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:17,967
-Yeah.
-That's it, okay.
They work.
239
00:07:17,967 --> 00:07:19,300
[Brian chuckles]
240
00:07:19,300 --> 00:07:21,667
[Mika] So this could
kind of be like
your game day.
241
00:07:21,667 --> 00:07:23,100
You're not far
from everything.
242
00:07:23,100 --> 00:07:24,667
You're close to the kitchen.
243
00:07:24,667 --> 00:07:27,100
Maybe there's water
out there, easily accessible,
244
00:07:27,100 --> 00:07:28,166
for a wet bar.
245
00:07:28,166 --> 00:07:30,000
-I know it doesn't come
with the house.
-[Randy] Yeah.
246
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,200
Yeah, Even though this
is a new-construction house,
247
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,300
you can still
make it your own
248
00:07:34,300 --> 00:07:36,100
without having
to knock down walls.
249
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:38,200
-[Brian] And he's making
a note on something.
-Yeah.
250
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,400
-Wet bar dollar sign.
-Additional cost.
251
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,567
Mika and I went
to high school together.
252
00:07:41,567 --> 00:07:43,767
I used to sit behind her
in class, and I did
the same thing.
253
00:07:43,767 --> 00:07:45,767
I would always be looking
at her notes.
254
00:07:45,767 --> 00:07:46,667
I hope you got
good grade.
255
00:07:46,667 --> 00:07:48,166
-[Randy] No cheating.
-[everyone chuckling]
256
00:07:48,166 --> 00:07:49,600
[Mika] Before we check out
other rooms,
257
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:50,567
we need to make sure
258
00:07:50,567 --> 00:07:52,300
this outdoor space
is gonna work
for you guys.
259
00:07:52,300 --> 00:07:53,467
[Brian] Yep.
260
00:07:54,500 --> 00:07:56,367
It's a wide lot, but not
a very deep lot.
261
00:07:56,367 --> 00:07:57,800
[Randy] Right.
I love this tree.
262
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:58,867
[Brian] Ton of shade.
263
00:07:58,867 --> 00:08:00,900
-Great for working
in the yard.
-[Randy] Yep.
264
00:08:00,900 --> 00:08:04,000
[Mika] You could
probably fit almost like
a lap size pool.
265
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,100
Which is going
to cost you around,
266
00:08:05,100 --> 00:08:06,834
maybe seventy-five thousand.
267
00:08:07,667 --> 00:08:09,200
-Wow.
-[Mika] Oh,
he keeps writing.
268
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,266
[Randy] Do you think that,
that pool's
269
00:08:10,266 --> 00:08:11,467
gonna be large enough
for you?
270
00:08:11,467 --> 00:08:14,767
[Skip] No, but
for new construction,
I'll settle.
271
00:08:14,767 --> 00:08:17,667
[Mika] So the layout is
a little bit separate, right?
272
00:08:17,667 --> 00:08:19,767
You've got two of the rooms
over here.
273
00:08:19,767 --> 00:08:21,166
-[Randy] Okay.
-[Skip] Nice.
274
00:08:21,166 --> 00:08:22,600
Perfect size for a guest.
275
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:23,300
[Randy] Okay.
276
00:08:23,300 --> 00:08:24,867
[Skip] So this services
these two?
277
00:08:24,867 --> 00:08:26,300
-[Mika] Yep.
-[Randy] Yep, all right.
278
00:08:26,300 --> 00:08:28,467
[Mika] This would be
the other secondary room
over here.
279
00:08:28,467 --> 00:08:29,667
[Skip] Oh, nice.
280
00:08:30,500 --> 00:08:33,166
[Brian] Let's go check out
your primary suite.
281
00:08:33,166 --> 00:08:35,900
I'm planting the seed
that this is already
your house.
282
00:08:35,900 --> 00:08:37,467
-[Randy] This is nice.
-[Mika] Nice try.
283
00:08:37,467 --> 00:08:39,433
-[Skip] This is nice.
-[Randy] This is
a great space.
284
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,567
-I like what I see here.
-Oh, yes.
285
00:08:42,567 --> 00:08:45,734
[Skip] Now, this is
a bathroom.
286
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:47,133
[Brian] There he goes.
287
00:08:47,133 --> 00:08:49,100
[Skip] I hate showering,
and I'm not even tall.
288
00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:50,467
and my elbows hit.
289
00:08:50,467 --> 00:08:51,767
[Brian] There's room for two.
290
00:08:51,767 --> 00:08:53,000
[Skip] I love love,
love that.
291
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,667
We need to pause
this moment in time
292
00:08:54,667 --> 00:08:56,066
because you're both agreeing.
293
00:08:56,066 --> 00:08:57,767
You're both happy.
You're both smiling.
294
00:08:57,767 --> 00:08:59,467
-[Randy] Yeah.
-[Skip] Yes, Love this.
295
00:09:01,367 --> 00:09:02,867
-[Skip] New construction.
-[Brian] Yes.
296
00:09:02,867 --> 00:09:03,900
[Skip] Shiny and new.
297
00:09:03,900 --> 00:09:05,000
Love the windows.
298
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,367
Love all the light.
299
00:09:06,367 --> 00:09:08,200
-[Randy] The color outside
I actually like.
-[Brian] Okay.
300
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,033
It needs a little
more oomph...
301
00:09:10,467 --> 00:09:11,500
on the inside.
302
00:09:11,500 --> 00:09:12,500
A little more zhuzh.
303
00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:14,000
Although, I do love
the floors.
304
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,000
I mean, we're pushing...
305
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,467
we're pushing the number.
306
00:09:16,467 --> 00:09:17,533
And I understand
307
00:09:17,533 --> 00:09:19,800
-it's because
of the location.
-[Mika] That's right.
308
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,467
[Skip] The price does not
bother me at all.
309
00:09:21,467 --> 00:09:23,467
-[Brian] Life is sure to--
-[Skip] Find a way to make it.
310
00:09:23,467 --> 00:09:24,266
[Brian] Yeah.
311
00:09:24,266 --> 00:09:25,867
Yeh, that tree,
back there
312
00:09:25,867 --> 00:09:27,266
I don't think
it's a money tree.
313
00:09:27,266 --> 00:09:28,333
[Brian laughing]
314
00:09:29,900 --> 00:09:31,567
[narrator] So, Mika and Brian
show them a home
315
00:09:31,567 --> 00:09:33,000
that's a little different,
316
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,634
but still close
to downtown.
317
00:09:35,100 --> 00:09:36,433
Is this the front?
318
00:09:40,500 --> 00:09:42,066
[Mika] How are you feeling
319
00:09:42,066 --> 00:09:43,834
After kind of like
the first,
320
00:09:43,834 --> 00:09:44,934
you know, date?
321
00:09:44,934 --> 00:09:47,667
I'm sure you all had
some conversations
after you left.
322
00:09:47,667 --> 00:09:48,533
[Brian chuckles]
323
00:09:48,867 --> 00:09:49,667
[Randy] Yeah.
324
00:09:49,667 --> 00:09:51,367
Uh-oh, you guys
are quiet.
325
00:09:51,367 --> 00:09:53,166
[narrator] Mika and Brian
have their hands full,
326
00:09:53,166 --> 00:09:56,467
getting Skip and Randy
to see eye to eye
on a house.
327
00:09:56,467 --> 00:09:59,166
Today, they've lined up
another home
in St Petersburg,
328
00:09:59,166 --> 00:10:01,567
that has more of what Randy
is looking for.
329
00:10:01,567 --> 00:10:03,467
Skip. I don't know
if today is gonna be
your favorite day.
330
00:10:03,467 --> 00:10:05,000
[Skip] Not new
construction, then?
331
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,166
[Brian] Not new construction.
332
00:10:06,834 --> 00:10:09,433
[upbeat music playing]
333
00:10:10,567 --> 00:10:12,100
Is this the front?
334
00:10:12,100 --> 00:10:14,000
[Mika] Well, not quite.
335
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,166
This is kind of the side,
336
00:10:15,166 --> 00:10:16,367
cause it's a corner lot.
337
00:10:16,367 --> 00:10:18,667
The good news is
you're right across the street
from the water.
338
00:10:18,667 --> 00:10:20,066
You can
probably smell...
339
00:10:20,066 --> 00:10:21,567
the salt water
from here, right?
340
00:10:21,567 --> 00:10:23,667
You are ten minutes
from downtown
St. Petersburg.
341
00:10:23,667 --> 00:10:25,100
-Okay, now you're talking
to me.
-[Mika] Uh-huh.
342
00:10:25,667 --> 00:10:27,266
There's a method
to our madness.
343
00:10:27,266 --> 00:10:28,367
I mean, we want
to make sure
344
00:10:28,367 --> 00:10:29,734
that we give
Skip and Randy
345
00:10:29,734 --> 00:10:31,200
all the different options.
346
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,734
And today's all about
that renovation option.
347
00:10:33,734 --> 00:10:35,367
I mean, it's a pretty
massive home.
348
00:10:35,367 --> 00:10:37,367
Five bedrooms,
three bathrooms,
349
00:10:37,367 --> 00:10:38,867
645,000.
350
00:10:38,867 --> 00:10:40,834
I think it's priced
pretty fairly
351
00:10:40,834 --> 00:10:42,467
considering the amount
of work it needs.
352
00:10:42,467 --> 00:10:43,767
[Skip] I hate the Colonial.
353
00:10:43,767 --> 00:10:45,100
[Randy] I don't like
the Colonial either.
354
00:10:45,100 --> 00:10:46,600
[Skip] That can be corrected.
355
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,100
-Yeah.
-[Mika] We're gonna
call this...
356
00:10:48,100 --> 00:10:49,867
mid-century Colonial
357
00:10:49,867 --> 00:10:52,467
because this home was built
in the mid-century,
358
00:10:52,467 --> 00:10:54,266
1958.
359
00:10:54,266 --> 00:10:56,000
All right, Skip and Randy.
360
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,100
Oh, wow.
361
00:10:57,100 --> 00:10:58,367
Wow.
362
00:10:58,367 --> 00:11:01,467
[Randy] Wow! Look
at the terrazzo.
363
00:11:01,467 --> 00:11:02,400
[Brian] Very mid-century.
364
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,767
-Wow.
-Oh my God,
he's all happy.
365
00:11:04,767 --> 00:11:05,600
-[Randy] Yeah.
-[Mika laughing]
366
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,500
Yes, it might be old,
but you know what,
367
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:09,200
It has some really good
368
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,467
facial cream.
'cause it looks
pretty great, right?
369
00:11:11,467 --> 00:11:13,600
You have three bedrooms
and two bathrooms
370
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,100
just in this wing
of the house alone.
371
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:16,467
Wing! Did you hear that?
'wing.'
372
00:11:16,467 --> 00:11:17,533
Wow.
373
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,667
[Randy] Oh my gosh!
Look at the tile.
374
00:11:20,667 --> 00:11:22,166
[Skip] Oh no,
it's too much.
375
00:11:22,166 --> 00:11:24,500
[Brain] You're right,
that color is actually
coming back.
376
00:11:24,500 --> 00:11:26,166
Believe it or not.
It is.
377
00:11:26,166 --> 00:11:28,266
No, the bathtub's
gotta go, at least.
378
00:11:28,266 --> 00:11:29,300
[Randy] That's original.
379
00:11:29,300 --> 00:11:30,567
[Skip] I know it is.
380
00:11:30,567 --> 00:11:31,734
-Way original.
-That is original.
381
00:11:31,734 --> 00:11:34,467
-[Randy] That's awesome.
-[Skip] At least,
the toilet's white
382
00:11:35,567 --> 00:11:37,467
-[Brian] Enough space
for the whole family?
-[Skip] Yes.
383
00:11:37,467 --> 00:11:38,367
[Randy] That's a big room too.
384
00:11:38,367 --> 00:11:39,300
[Brian] It keeps going,
doesn't it?
385
00:11:39,300 --> 00:11:41,266
Lots of space.
Absolutely.
386
00:11:41,266 --> 00:11:42,867
[Mika] We all know that
a kitchen renovation
387
00:11:42,867 --> 00:11:45,100
can be one of the costliest
rooms in the house, right?
388
00:11:45,100 --> 00:11:45,867
[Randy] Yeah, yeah.
389
00:11:45,867 --> 00:11:47,467
So, this kitchen...
390
00:11:47,467 --> 00:11:48,967
[Randy] Wow, this is
a huge kitchen.
391
00:11:48,967 --> 00:11:50,400
[Mika] Is ready
to start cooking in.
392
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:51,867
[Skip] Oh, my God.
393
00:11:51,867 --> 00:11:53,266
Slab cabinets they're...
394
00:11:53,266 --> 00:11:54,166
Those are awesome.
395
00:11:54,166 --> 00:11:55,500
Looks like they stopped.
396
00:11:55,500 --> 00:11:57,033
I'm missing some backsplash.
397
00:11:57,033 --> 00:11:58,967
There's no backsplash,
but it's a good thing.
398
00:11:58,967 --> 00:12:01,467
That means you can pick
whatever backsplash
you want.
399
00:12:01,467 --> 00:12:03,100
[Skip] I don't know
if I like the brick.
400
00:12:03,100 --> 00:12:04,467
That's a little primitive.
401
00:12:04,467 --> 00:12:05,667
We could drywall that, right?
402
00:12:05,667 --> 00:12:06,333
Did you hear
what he just said?
403
00:12:06,333 --> 00:12:07,767
He wants to drywall
over that.
404
00:12:07,767 --> 00:12:08,734
He's nuts.
405
00:12:08,734 --> 00:12:10,467
[laughing]
406
00:12:11,867 --> 00:12:13,767
[Brian] I know one of you
is dreading the stairs.
407
00:12:13,767 --> 00:12:15,066
-Not excited.
-[Skip] I'm dreading
the carpet.
408
00:12:15,066 --> 00:12:16,166
That's gotta go.
409
00:12:18,100 --> 00:12:19,033
[Randy] Holy cannoli.
410
00:12:19,033 --> 00:12:20,100
What!
411
00:12:20,100 --> 00:12:21,367
[Skip] That's a big room.
412
00:12:21,367 --> 00:12:22,767
Look at the size
of that built-in.
413
00:12:22,767 --> 00:12:24,166
that needs to go bye-bye.
414
00:12:24,166 --> 00:12:25,200
And the carpet.
415
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,467
-The carpet is all throughout
the upstairs.
-Yeah.
416
00:12:27,467 --> 00:12:29,967
Probably about $8000
to rip all that
carpet out.
417
00:12:29,967 --> 00:12:32,100
But that is
the best money
you will ever spend.
418
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:34,266
I think the carpet is
original too, upstairs,
419
00:12:34,266 --> 00:12:36,333
which is really gross
and... no.
420
00:12:37,100 --> 00:12:38,567
[Brian] This is your
primary suite.
421
00:12:38,567 --> 00:12:39,734
[Skip] Oh, my God.
[Brian] Look at this
right here.
422
00:12:39,734 --> 00:12:41,266
[Randy] The size of this
[Skip] Yeah, it's big.
423
00:12:41,266 --> 00:12:43,400
[Brian] And for an older house
that's very rare.
424
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:44,367
[Mika] It really is.
425
00:12:44,367 --> 00:12:45,166
[Brian] Huge closet.
426
00:12:45,166 --> 00:12:47,000
-[Skip] This is massive.
-[Randy] My God.
427
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,467
Well, I I do like
the color of it, but...
428
00:12:49,467 --> 00:12:50,300
[Skip] No.
429
00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:51,867
-[Randy] It's a little...
-[Skip] Nope.
430
00:12:51,867 --> 00:12:53,166
Tired, I'm done.
431
00:12:53,166 --> 00:12:54,166
It's a little tight.
432
00:12:54,166 --> 00:12:57,266
Double vanity, but it's still
a little bit tight.
433
00:12:57,266 --> 00:12:59,934
And it's got this door
to the hallway.
434
00:12:59,934 --> 00:13:01,767
[Brian] Since you have
a huge walk-in closet,
435
00:13:01,767 --> 00:13:04,367
-You don't really need
these extra closets.
-[Skip] No, right.
436
00:13:04,367 --> 00:13:07,266
I think you convert this
into extra bathroom space.
437
00:13:07,266 --> 00:13:08,767
Oh, we go that way.
438
00:13:08,767 --> 00:13:10,000
-[Randy] This way.
-[Skip] Okay.
439
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,100
[Brian] This hallway,
we could fill it in
with bathroom.
440
00:13:12,100 --> 00:13:13,367
[Mika] You could add
a huge shower
441
00:13:13,367 --> 00:13:14,867
with midcentury
modern touches,
442
00:13:14,867 --> 00:13:17,200
a soaking tub
and a double-vanity
443
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:18,667
with flat modern cabinets.
444
00:13:18,667 --> 00:13:20,266
Depending on how big
you want to go with it.
445
00:13:20,266 --> 00:13:21,300
it would be pretty expensive,
446
00:13:21,300 --> 00:13:23,667
'cause it does
involve moving
some plumbing up here.
447
00:13:23,667 --> 00:13:25,834
And I'm almost wanting
to borrow this.
448
00:13:25,834 --> 00:13:27,300
-It's mine.
-Because that scares me.
449
00:13:27,300 --> 00:13:28,567
It's an older house guys.
450
00:13:28,567 --> 00:13:30,166
That's what you're gonna get
on the renovation.
451
00:13:30,166 --> 00:13:32,266
I don't wanna live through
this again.
452
00:13:32,266 --> 00:13:35,166
[Brian] We're gonna
head downstairs before
the budget keeps going up.
453
00:13:35,166 --> 00:13:36,100
[Skip] There we go.
454
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:37,867
Let's go back down
to reality
455
00:13:37,867 --> 00:13:39,500
without this gross carpet.
456
00:13:39,500 --> 00:13:40,867
[Mika] This could also be
a living room,
457
00:13:40,867 --> 00:13:42,900
and it has the access
to the outdoor.
458
00:13:44,166 --> 00:13:45,500
Nice sized yard too.
459
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:47,667
[Skip] It needs some love,
but it could be
brought up.
460
00:13:47,667 --> 00:13:49,000
[Brian] I think the pool would
almost start here
461
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,867
and kind of wrap around
this corner.
462
00:13:50,867 --> 00:13:52,266
-[Skip] Yeah, that's cool.
-[Randy] Kind of free form.
463
00:13:52,266 --> 00:13:55,166
[Brian] Probably be ninety
to $100,000.
464
00:13:55,166 --> 00:13:57,734
We're pushing
the comfort zone again
with the pool...
465
00:14:00,066 --> 00:14:02,266
-[Brian] Has anybody
seen Skip?
-[Mika laughs]
466
00:14:02,266 --> 00:14:03,200
He's right here.
467
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:04,967
The wall needs
to go away, not me.
468
00:14:04,967 --> 00:14:07,367
[Randy] I don't like
the fact that
it's two-storeys,
469
00:14:07,367 --> 00:14:08,467
but it is mid-century.
470
00:14:08,467 --> 00:14:09,467
You're not gonna
find that
471
00:14:09,467 --> 00:14:10,667
in a new construction home.
472
00:14:10,667 --> 00:14:11,767
[Skip] It can be replicated.
473
00:14:11,767 --> 00:14:13,867
The real estate agent
that has this listing
474
00:14:13,867 --> 00:14:15,100
is pricing it competitive,
475
00:14:15,100 --> 00:14:17,166
because not everybody
is going to be open...
476
00:14:17,166 --> 00:14:17,867
No.
477
00:14:17,867 --> 00:14:19,100
No, to putting in the work
478
00:14:19,100 --> 00:14:21,867
and, you know,
renovating it
and making it their own.
479
00:14:21,867 --> 00:14:23,266
[Brian] Give it
to us, Randy.
480
00:14:23,266 --> 00:14:25,166
Well, I'm hoping that
we could get a pool
481
00:14:25,166 --> 00:14:26,400
for closer
to seventy-five thousand
482
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,400
and then maybe
an additional fifty thousand
in reno...
483
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,734
We're at 770 all in
484
00:14:31,734 --> 00:14:34,100
for St. Pete proper.
485
00:14:34,100 --> 00:14:35,734
I think you've got
instant equity.
486
00:14:35,734 --> 00:14:37,166
I'm frightened of...
487
00:14:37,166 --> 00:14:38,367
how we're going
to live...
488
00:14:38,367 --> 00:14:40,166
-Yeah.
-During the renovation.
489
00:14:40,166 --> 00:14:41,667
My head wants
to explode.
490
00:14:42,867 --> 00:14:44,567
[narrator] So they're off
to see another option.
491
00:14:44,567 --> 00:14:46,734
There's just one
small thing missing.
492
00:14:47,166 --> 00:14:48,333
Where is the house?
493
00:14:50,367 --> 00:14:53,233
[upbeat music playing]
494
00:14:53,233 --> 00:14:54,767
Thank you so much
for being candid,
495
00:14:54,767 --> 00:14:55,667
keeping it real,
496
00:14:55,667 --> 00:14:57,233
even when you don't
always agree.
497
00:14:57,233 --> 00:14:58,266
[Randy] We never agree.
498
00:14:58,266 --> 00:14:59,533
We're getting closer.
499
00:14:59,533 --> 00:15:00,567
[Randy] That's why
you're here.
500
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:01,367
You agree
501
00:15:01,367 --> 00:15:03,100
-on never agreeing.
-[everyone laughs]
502
00:15:03,100 --> 00:15:05,266
[narrator] Today,
Mika and Brian
are taking the guys
503
00:15:05,266 --> 00:15:06,133
to see an option
504
00:15:06,133 --> 00:15:08,266
in a new development
in Palmetto,
505
00:15:08,266 --> 00:15:10,734
thirty minutes
from St. Petersburg.
506
00:15:10,734 --> 00:15:13,133
You found
a midcentury in this
beautiful neighborhood?
507
00:15:13,133 --> 00:15:14,467
[Brian laughs]
508
00:15:14,467 --> 00:15:17,333
-Not quite yet.
-We are here.
509
00:15:19,667 --> 00:15:20,667
[Randy] Holy cannoli.
510
00:15:20,667 --> 00:15:21,533
[Brian] Yeah.
511
00:15:21,867 --> 00:15:23,333
Where's the house?
512
00:15:23,333 --> 00:15:25,667
I don't think that
we could have gone
through this process
513
00:15:25,667 --> 00:15:29,000
with Randy and Skip
without showing them
the opportunity
514
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,934
of building
from the ground up
a hundred-percent custom.
515
00:15:31,934 --> 00:15:33,567
I mean, That's kind of
what we do,
516
00:15:33,567 --> 00:15:35,567
and I do think,
they would be...
517
00:15:35,567 --> 00:15:36,433
open to the idea
518
00:15:36,433 --> 00:15:38,433
This is our stomping ground.
519
00:15:38,433 --> 00:15:39,767
We love playing
in the dirt
520
00:15:39,767 --> 00:15:42,233
we love building
from the ground up.
521
00:15:42,233 --> 00:15:43,266
And here...
522
00:15:43,266 --> 00:15:45,266
you have
all the opportunities,
523
00:15:45,266 --> 00:15:48,166
you can dream big
and get exactly
what you want.
524
00:15:48,166 --> 00:15:50,266
I know it doesn't look like
much now, but it will.
525
00:15:50,266 --> 00:15:53,467
The list price
for just the dirt
is $75,000.
526
00:15:53,467 --> 00:15:55,834
-Okay.
-However, based on
the size home
527
00:15:55,834 --> 00:15:57,333
that you guys
are interested in,
528
00:15:57,333 --> 00:15:58,667
you can build a house,
529
00:15:58,667 --> 00:16:01,066
brand new construction,
three thousand square feet.
530
00:16:01,066 --> 00:16:02,500
-Yes.
-Plus the land.
531
00:16:02,867 --> 00:16:04,767
675,000 total.
532
00:16:04,767 --> 00:16:06,533
[Brian] And you still have
a little bit of money left
533
00:16:06,533 --> 00:16:08,467
to build that pool
you want in the backyard.
534
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:10,166
A little bit
of money left.
535
00:16:10,166 --> 00:16:11,734
If you did do a grand pool,
536
00:16:11,734 --> 00:16:12,867
you might be looking at
537
00:16:12,867 --> 00:16:14,734
775,000...
538
00:16:14,734 --> 00:16:16,734
all together for everything
on that wish list.
539
00:16:16,734 --> 00:16:19,100
-Mm-hmm.
-And it can be
a hundred days.
540
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:19,867
Absolutely.
541
00:16:19,867 --> 00:16:21,567
Can you make decisions
quickly?
542
00:16:21,567 --> 00:16:22,834
-Yes, we can.
-[Brian] Okay.
543
00:16:22,834 --> 00:16:23,834
We will not hold
that up.
544
00:16:23,834 --> 00:16:25,066
I think that
we can make it work.
545
00:16:25,066 --> 00:16:26,266
We can build this
546
00:16:26,266 --> 00:16:28,233
faster than most
renovations take.
547
00:16:28,233 --> 00:16:29,567
We've done some
other projects
548
00:16:29,567 --> 00:16:32,667
that really have a lot
of that midcentury modern
you want.
549
00:16:32,667 --> 00:16:34,100
The beams, the shiplap...
550
00:16:34,100 --> 00:16:35,667
-Oh, how pretty.
-Nice, right?
551
00:16:35,667 --> 00:16:37,533
The gloss ceiling.
I've never seen that.
552
00:16:37,533 --> 00:16:39,767
-We actually built this one
in St. Pete.
-Yeah.
553
00:16:39,767 --> 00:16:42,333
-Wow, yes.
-You can notice, I mean,
what we built there,
554
00:16:42,333 --> 00:16:43,567
the houses are
a little smaller.
555
00:16:43,567 --> 00:16:44,667
The lots are
a little smaller.
556
00:16:44,667 --> 00:16:46,100
If you build out here...
557
00:16:46,100 --> 00:16:47,867
-You can go bigger.
-A lot more lot.
558
00:16:47,867 --> 00:16:49,634
[Mika] You can have
that contemporary flair,
559
00:16:49,634 --> 00:16:52,033
you can do the two-story
asymmetrical roof line
560
00:16:52,033 --> 00:16:53,467
that's gonna, you know,
kind of tie
561
00:16:53,467 --> 00:16:54,967
into the mid-century style
562
00:16:54,967 --> 00:16:56,133
that you really love, Randy.
563
00:16:56,133 --> 00:16:58,867
As long as
the primary bedroom
can be on the first floor...
564
00:16:58,867 --> 00:17:00,266
That's the great thing
about building new.
565
00:17:00,266 --> 00:17:02,367
You can get
whatever you want.
566
00:17:02,367 --> 00:17:04,000
I can see where
we can compromise
567
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,000
and come together
on what he wants,
568
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,066
what I want
569
00:17:07,066 --> 00:17:09,634
and the benefits of building
new construction, which...
570
00:17:10,266 --> 00:17:11,533
I have wanted all along.
571
00:17:11,533 --> 00:17:14,333
I will say this is not
as close to St. Pete
572
00:17:14,333 --> 00:17:16,166
as you probably
would like.
573
00:17:16,166 --> 00:17:18,166
[Brian] Is location
more important?
574
00:17:18,166 --> 00:17:20,066
Or is the actual house
more important?
575
00:17:20,066 --> 00:17:21,734
-[Randy] Ultimately, maybe.
-Come on, Randy.
576
00:17:21,734 --> 00:17:23,166
Maybe, I've always
577
00:17:23,166 --> 00:17:25,834
thought that I knew
what I wanted,
578
00:17:25,834 --> 00:17:28,066
and now
I'm a little confused,
579
00:17:28,066 --> 00:17:31,433
a little perplexed
about which way
to go with this?
580
00:17:39,367 --> 00:17:40,834
[collective greetings]
581
00:17:40,834 --> 00:17:42,100
-[Mika] Good to see you back.
-Good to see you again.
582
00:17:42,100 --> 00:17:44,567
-Have a seat.
-The anticipation
is killing us.
583
00:17:44,567 --> 00:17:45,533
Oh, my goodness.
584
00:17:45,533 --> 00:17:48,000
Mika and Brian
did an awesome job
585
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,867
[Randy] opening our eyes
to some new ideas.
586
00:17:50,867 --> 00:17:52,533
[Skip] Hopefully,
they can help us
587
00:17:52,533 --> 00:17:54,000
come closer
to a decision.
588
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,467
Oh, here comes
the notebook again.
589
00:17:55,467 --> 00:17:58,266
[Mika] Let's get
our score card
on all these options.
590
00:17:58,266 --> 00:18:00,967
What about the red,
newer home...
591
00:18:00,967 --> 00:18:02,867
-[Brian] close
to St. Petersburg.
-[Mika] Mm-hmm.
592
00:18:02,867 --> 00:18:04,166
[Randy] I love the color.
593
00:18:04,166 --> 00:18:05,667
-I love to punch of the color
on the outside.
-[Skip] I don't, no.
594
00:18:05,667 --> 00:18:07,100
We would have
to paint it before
I move there.
595
00:18:07,100 --> 00:18:09,000
Paint is easy.
Paint's an easy renovation.
596
00:18:09,166 --> 00:18:09,900
[Skip] No.
597
00:18:09,900 --> 00:18:11,367
[Brian] Skip,
look at your shirt.
598
00:18:11,367 --> 00:18:13,000
Come on.
599
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,767
Belongs on clothing,
not the outside
of your house.
600
00:18:15,767 --> 00:18:17,266
[Randy] And then that
primary bedroom and bath
601
00:18:17,266 --> 00:18:19,333
- were pretty amazing.
-[Skip] They were.
602
00:18:19,333 --> 00:18:21,867
It did have some
opportunity to add a pool,
603
00:18:21,867 --> 00:18:23,667
maybe not a...
Olympic sized pool,
604
00:18:23,667 --> 00:18:24,667
[Mika] but you could
do something.
605
00:18:24,667 --> 00:18:26,734
[Brian] The good thing
about a smaller pool, though
606
00:18:26,734 --> 00:18:27,834
is a smaller price.
607
00:18:27,834 --> 00:18:29,767
-[Brian] $75,000
for that pool.
-[Mika] True.
608
00:18:29,767 --> 00:18:30,934
[Brian] So, keep that
in mind.
609
00:18:31,767 --> 00:18:33,767
-[Mika] Mid-century...
-[Brian] Colonial...
610
00:18:33,767 --> 00:18:35,133
Colonial hybrid house.
611
00:18:35,133 --> 00:18:37,000
Mid-century modern
on the inside.
612
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,166
-[Mika] It had character,
which I think, Randy...
-[Randy] Absolutely.
613
00:18:39,166 --> 00:18:40,433
[Mika] ...that's what you
fell in love with.
614
00:18:40,433 --> 00:18:42,367
[Randy] I loved
the terrazzo floors,
615
00:18:42,367 --> 00:18:43,667
the mid-century features.
616
00:18:43,667 --> 00:18:45,467
Primary bath would
need to be a gut.
617
00:18:45,467 --> 00:18:46,266
-[Mika] Okay.
-[Randy] I agree.
618
00:18:46,266 --> 00:18:48,166
The list price is 645,
619
00:18:48,166 --> 00:18:49,634
and a renovation budget
620
00:18:49,634 --> 00:18:52,533
of $125,000.
621
00:18:52,533 --> 00:18:55,433
-The house is
several decades old.
-[Brian] Yeah.
622
00:18:55,433 --> 00:18:56,867
What will we uncover
623
00:18:56,867 --> 00:18:58,567
when we're trying
to just put in a vanity,
624
00:18:58,567 --> 00:19:00,166
-as an example.
-[Brian] Yeah.
625
00:19:00,767 --> 00:19:03,000
The plot of land
was $75,000.
626
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,066
We can build you the home
of your dreams
627
00:19:05,066 --> 00:19:06,467
for $600,000,
628
00:19:06,467 --> 00:19:07,834
but then you also
have the pool
629
00:19:07,834 --> 00:19:09,266
that you want to do
in the backyard.
630
00:19:09,266 --> 00:19:10,467
So, probably around
631
00:19:10,467 --> 00:19:13,367
$775,000 total
for that option.
632
00:19:13,367 --> 00:19:14,567
[Randy] And you're getting
everything you want
633
00:19:14,567 --> 00:19:17,166
And... a lot less headaches.
634
00:19:17,166 --> 00:19:18,967
It wasn't, you know,
ten minutes from downtown,
635
00:19:18,967 --> 00:19:20,934
but I think it was
at a reasonable distance.
636
00:19:20,934 --> 00:19:22,433
-Mm-hmm.
-I don't feel like
you guys
637
00:19:22,433 --> 00:19:23,934
can go wrong
with any decision.
638
00:19:23,934 --> 00:19:26,734
[Mika] It just
comes down to what is
the most important, right?
639
00:19:26,734 --> 00:19:28,533
Do we want to be open
to renovation?
640
00:19:28,533 --> 00:19:30,934
Do we want to be
in an ideal spot,
641
00:19:30,934 --> 00:19:32,166
or do we want
to be turnkey?
642
00:19:32,166 --> 00:19:34,333
No maintenance move in
and no work to do.
643
00:19:43,367 --> 00:19:45,000
-Hi, guys.
-[Brian] Hey.
644
00:19:45,333 --> 00:19:46,467
Welcome.
645
00:19:46,467 --> 00:19:47,467
Come in.
646
00:19:47,467 --> 00:19:48,667
-[Mika] Oh...
-[Randy] What do you think?
647
00:19:48,667 --> 00:19:49,934
-[Mika exclaiming]
-[Brian] Wow.
648
00:19:51,834 --> 00:19:53,934
I just told Mika,
is this what our homeowners
649
00:19:53,934 --> 00:19:55,300
feel like during
the reveals?
650
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,333
It must be.
651
00:19:57,333 --> 00:19:58,634
We bought
the midcentury modern
652
00:19:59,467 --> 00:20:02,767
It was a great house
that gave both of us
653
00:20:02,767 --> 00:20:03,967
what we wanted.
654
00:20:03,967 --> 00:20:05,567
I've never wanted
to admit to him.
655
00:20:05,567 --> 00:20:07,166
But the first time
I walked in the door,
656
00:20:07,166 --> 00:20:10,266
the house spoke to me
more than any
of the new construction.
657
00:20:10,266 --> 00:20:11,767
I was leaning this way
all along,
658
00:20:11,767 --> 00:20:14,767
but I was trying
to convince you and me...
659
00:20:14,767 --> 00:20:16,567
that I did not want
to live here.
660
00:20:16,567 --> 00:20:17,867
But when we sat down
and talked it through,
661
00:20:17,867 --> 00:20:19,367
I had to be honest
with myself.
662
00:20:19,367 --> 00:20:21,433
-This is home.
-[Randy] Absolutely
in agreement.
663
00:20:21,433 --> 00:20:22,667
One hundred percent.
664
00:20:22,667 --> 00:20:26,033
And both of your personalities
are in this space.
665
00:20:26,033 --> 00:20:27,000
We can just feel it.
666
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,834
We're so thankful to you
for showing us the place.
667
00:20:28,834 --> 00:20:30,467
-We would not have
been here.
-Yeah.
668
00:20:30,467 --> 00:20:34,166
The house was originally
listed for $645,000.
669
00:20:34,166 --> 00:20:37,567
We were able to negotiate
a price of 600,000.
670
00:20:37,567 --> 00:20:40,100
So that's going to help us
quite a bit.
671
00:20:40,100 --> 00:20:41,867
We've still got
the pool to do.
672
00:20:41,867 --> 00:20:44,000
In addition to new carpet,
673
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,133
new primary bath.
674
00:20:45,133 --> 00:20:46,467
[Randy] new primary bath.
675
00:20:46,467 --> 00:20:48,533
-There's plenty of room
to spread out.
-Yes.
676
00:20:48,533 --> 00:20:51,667
This room invites everyone
right out to the future pool.
677
00:20:51,667 --> 00:20:52,567
-[Brian] Yep.
-[Mika] I love it.
678
00:20:52,567 --> 00:20:54,533
I'm most excited
for Randy and Skip
679
00:20:54,533 --> 00:20:55,567
to finally be able
to have
680
00:20:55,567 --> 00:20:58,567
all of their families
in the same house
681
00:20:58,567 --> 00:21:01,567
and just to host
their grandkids
and create new memories.
682
00:21:01,567 --> 00:21:03,667
We want to introduce you
to a new family member.
683
00:21:03,667 --> 00:21:05,533
-I can't wait.
-I love it.
684
00:21:06,166 --> 00:21:07,233
Is that for us?
685
00:21:07,233 --> 00:21:10,066
Just a little something
for your garden.
686
00:21:10,066 --> 00:21:12,133
[Mika] An orange tree
is symbolic for
687
00:21:12,133 --> 00:21:13,667
now being permanent
Florida residents.
688
00:21:13,667 --> 00:21:14,467
Yes.
689
00:21:14,467 --> 00:21:16,433
That will bear fruit
for years to come.
690
00:21:16,433 --> 00:21:18,467
It's like the gift
that keeps on giving.
691
00:21:18,467 --> 00:21:20,133
Skip and Randy started out
as clients.
692
00:21:20,133 --> 00:21:22,300
Now they're friends
and neighbors as well.
693
00:21:22,567 --> 00:21:23,734
There we go.
694
00:21:23,734 --> 00:21:25,233
-[Mika] Nice.
-[Skip] That's awesome.
695
00:21:25,233 --> 00:21:26,333
From our family to yours.
696
00:21:26,333 --> 00:21:27,567
Thank you for everything.
697
00:21:27,567 --> 00:21:29,367
-Absolutely.
-Thank you guys.
It's been a blast.
