Monica is lovely and having her on was a fun little twist. As always, you two are ADORABLE!

I totally agree with the statement “it’s not like on TV”. I bought a home built in 1956 in original condition from the original owner and did a full update - removed walls, created an open concept, gutted and rebuilt the kitchen, updated electrical, plumbing, new roof and HVAC system, newfnce. Should have updated windows. It was expensive and time consuming. Thankfully I had an ethical contractor. I put it in my rental program and am doing fine. I’m planning to do another to put in my rental portfolio. You’re right - takes longer and is more expensive than seen on HGTV.

Good solid tips. Now i can't wait to see the befores and afters on those houses you showed in this one...particularly that twofer house you got for 770k!

I’m a flipper in the Little Rock, AR area. Much lower barrier of entry as opposed to Austin. I definitely agree with you guys on all these tips. Great video!

Board and batten is a great idea for the fire place! Your inspirational pic was good to see!

As someone who studied architecture, the first step to any house flip is getting an expert to examine the foundation and infrastructure of the house, especially if it's an old house. And I completely agree with you guys, start with cosmetics before you dive deep into bigger projects, and please don't DIY something you would need a license for. Heck even I've studied about pluming and I still would not do it cause I'm not trained enough for it, it's not just connecting pipes.

Great episode with Monica, can't wait to see the new houses when they are ready. 😊👍

[jasontroy]

Great content! Always look forward to new episodes (interested in the million-dollar flip as well as the disaster flip).

It’s so exciting to get all of these free tips from the experts themselves! And I can’t wait for the full before and after videos of the next three houses! 😈

For some reason I thought this was going to be a reaction video. Was not expecting a Monica Church collab!

I remembered when $500K house was a fortune. Now, $1 Million is typical in many areas. So you shouldn’t think a $1 Million house deserves a $2K front door. The value of the house is mainly location, not the house itself.

This was such a cool episode. I can't wait to see more of these before and afters yay!!! You both are amazing as always 🙂

Hi

For your second mistake, what things are you referring to that would give you a bad feeling about doing the flip?
