How Much Did My Derelict House Cost?

[sleeplessstu]

I would definitely first get new floor joists built under the sagging floor. You can combine that job with getting at least one water and sewer (waste) pipe put in so there’s a working toilet/sink. That will get you a safe first floor and enable you to store materials. If that failing brick wall is a bearing wall, you should definitely get that propped up along with any other structural walls internal to the building. Good luck Ryan ! Crack On !

I'm so proud of you Ryan. Having your own place is a really big step. I'm so looking forward to seeing the renovations get started.

Where to start? Think about what some Chateau owners do. They fix up a couple of rooms in the beginning where they can live during the renovation and build a plan from there. This allows you to be on the property while you are working on it. You also have more security because people see you coming and going, so they know its being renovated and someone lives on-site. You also learn the property and have a better idea of what needs to happen when, so you can build your renovation priorities. Hope this was helpful and not annoying.

I know folks will say one room at a time but you’ve first got to make the floors and walls safe keeping in mind running electrical and water. But very first thing would be making sure you can keep your tools and equipment safe inside.

Bravo, Ryan. I'm so excited to watch your journey renovating your new house! It's going to be a herculean challenge, but you're persistent and resilient and you will succeed. Just don't forget, you're new to renovating on this scale, and you must ask for help and advice from the Pethericks, Simon, etc. You don't have to walk through this alone. But it's your journey, and you deserve all the credit for making it happen. Go, Ryan!!

At last Ryan, you've taken the plunge. It looks like it could be a really nice place. So, there's some work to do, well at least it will end up looking like you want it to. Looking forward to seeing the doing. All grease to your elbow.

Hiya Ryan...you will turn your home into a beautiful gem...good luck.❤😊

The best place to start Mr Ryan, is to do some sweeping, just start pushing a broom around and look at stuff, it will lead you to the task you need doing first. . . BTW . . I too have an old building in need of reno-ing, so I feel your excitement and potential terrors of what might be behind the wall . . . . . Best of luck in all you do there.

[chrismarcotte]

Congrats, Ryan! Will be watching every video as you renovate!
