I have had rentals since 1985, I clean and paint but you wouldn't believe the pig pens when they move out. There are a few that leave them clean but not as clean as when they move in. NO PRIDE!
I'll say I am 67 , caring for a disabled hubby , disabled myself - he has 5 adult kids from previous marriage and I hardly see them unless I take him to visit them although they care it's sad to see.
With all of the craziness you see on TV it is so nice to realize just how special and generous most people are. It never ceases to amaze me. Great job Cory and Manny.
I find that when it comes to shower curtains, it’s so much better to go to Ross or similar store and spend $5-$7 and instead use the Dollar Store shower curtains as drop cloths to use under kids art projects or under pumpkin carving or under repainting a furniture item!!! It was a game changer when I realized this was the only way to go! Also, wait and search thrift shops for exactly the right outer shower curtain that you love if either nobody wants to give you a free one or you don’t like all of the options presented. Almost always, you’ll be able to pick up a fantastic fabric shower curtain and use the heavy duty Ross liner and it functions beautifully and looks great!
I wish I had someone like you to help me. I’m in a wheelchair and on disability, so money is tight. At this point I’d welcome anyone who wouldn’t mind helping me clean my home. I wish there were others like you. Your family is very blessed to have you! Sincerely Susan 💝🥰🤗
I am physically disabled from a car accident and even thought I can work part time with disability money is very tight for me as well. I do home health care and I was able to cover a few days of a former client and she was Soo happy cause I was helping her finish putting her apartment together as she wanted it along with some minor diys. Guess I made her few days I was there happy from helping. Needless to say when I got home I didn't wanna do anything in my house. Lol.
I will keep you in my prayers. If I lived near you I would help you. I have a disabled leg from an accident in 2016 but, I still do ok. I was bedridden for many months went from a wheel chair to crutches to a cane and then walking freely. I work full time in a difficult industry and I am the only female in my dept. I have been there for 20 years. I am saving for my own home for a one floor small home. Blessings, Rebekah in VA
GIRL, I am exhausted just watching this video. 😁Your sister-in-law is one lucky person, and you are such a kind soul to do this for her. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to the videos to come.
Hi Cory! Your videos are never long enough. Even if they were 3 hours long! I am so stoked that I found your channel. I love watching you and Manny work together. Cant wait for episodes 2, 3, 4 etc.
I remember watching you and your husband work on projects to help kids who had aged out of foster care. I was so impressed by what you were doing. I even told my friends about it. Unfortunately I am disabled and use a walker or wheelchair. After 10 years of this I finally found a doctor who might know what is wrong and how to treat my condition. I’m so excited! Thanks for reminding people to clean before they move into a place. Yes, disgusting! I can’t wait to see the final results. I know it will be amazing!
I, too, am wheelchair/walker bound. And I pray your doctor can find the reason for your condition and help you with a solution (my issue is my weight; if I could drop 75-100 lbs, I could be well on my way to walking on my own again). Best of luck to you!
Can’t wait for the rest of the series! This is so much fun to watch & see what you are going to do. The hutch is a great piece to start with. Your sister-in-law is very fortunate for your families help !
Now that is family!!! They are so blessed to have such good help and honey you could come and clean this old lady's house any day, I used to be spotless now I am just tidy, I NEED you lol. I love that house, especially the textured walls and that very large pantry and cannot wait to see it completed, I know it will be beautiful. Love thrifting and always used preloved items when I can.
Ya'll rock. You can tell ya'll have been a military family. You are a blessing to all who come in contact with you. I can't wait to see how your sister-in-law's home turns out. 😊
Hello dear Cory. I wish there were more generous and supportive people like you. I watch your videos not only because I like the transformations you make, but also because I like your positive attitude.
What fun! I enjoyed seeing your videos flipping furniture sets for young adults aging out of foster care. I’m so excited to see you do this for your sister-in-law. I am with you on the cleaning. 👍👍👍 Aluminum windows are especially prone to mildew and mold because of condensation, at least where we live. The wall color of her home will work well with a black and red theme, IMO. I ant wait to see the rest of this decorating project! Take care and God bless you, Cory, Manny and family! 😊🙏👍
This is such a great idea. I have always wanted to see a project like this done. Thank you for taking us on the journey with you. You and your husband make such a great team
I’m going to pull my fridge out as soon as this video is over. I have cats and while there’s no obvious hair around it I bet there’s a ton getting sucked under and behind. Thanks for the reminder! Great video!
That is so super nice and I am sure your sister law appreciates it so much. Can't wait to see how it all ends up. I bet loads of people would live for you to come in and decorate their whole house hold on a limited budget!!
This is a BIG job... While the house/apartment is completely empty is the best time to thoroughly clean/disinfect as you are doing. You are blessed to have your family helping you... I am looking forward to watching parts 2, 3, 4 and so on, of the transformation ... Love you and your videos...
I always enjoy your videos, but this is one of my favorites. Seeing the process from an empty space to clean and at least partially done is really entertaining. I loved you showing how real people can get started and get nice results on a strict budget. I admire how your family is pulling together. Looking forward to seeing the rest in this series.
I was having so much fun watching this! I am the same way, I love helping other people decorate! It also made me realize how badly I need to clean out my own house and get rid of clutter, yikes! I have always had to clean places when I move in because I have high standards for what is "clean". I always leave places that I live in better than when I moved in, which sadly isn't that difficult. My mom taught me to do that, and I have taught my kids. Your kids will be grateful some day when they are having to take care of their own places. Anyways, you are making your sister's place so beautiful for her. She is so lucky to have you and Manny!
Loved watching this! You are a one woman cleaning machine! And how lovely you and Manny are helping your sister/sister-in-law furnish her house like this! Looking forward to the next episode!
Wow! So inspiring what can come together for free - when people need it! There is such an abundance of things that there is enough to share. You will make her place beautiful ❤
I really felt your happiness in your "new" project...love watching your vids... Love your comments and voice over...for me it's perspective... Thanks for effort Cory! It's very appreciated!
I remember watching your videos from years ago. Your generosity in 😮re doing furniture and donating 😮to 😮those less fortunate is amazing. You are such a kind soul.
What an amazing awesome thing to do for your sister in laws family! She is so blessed to have you and Manny in her family! I'm so excited to see all of the up coming videos! Blessings to all of you! 😊❤
Your booth is beautiful! Wow Cory, you are an amazing sister in love!oh my goodness, the hutch is gorgeous, what a find! God bless you and your husband!❤️❤️
I am so excited for your SIL! Having watched your videos for quite some time, I know she will be enchanted with all your work. I look forward to the next ones! Much love to you, Manny, and your family ❤!
Bassett makes great quality furniture! We have two bedroom suits built by Bassett and one of the suits belonged to my parents. It’s about 55 years old and it is still as sturdy and sound as the day they bought it.
Your sister is very, very blessed to have you. ETA: Just watching you clean that room with the open pantry ... that was a LOT of cleaning work. And it was just one room! ETA2: I hope the landlord is watching this!!! ETA3: Impatiently waiting for Part 2.😁💗
Wow! That hutch is amazing! What a great find….and FREE! Can’t wait to see the rest of the videos. You are so kind and generous. I know your sister-in-law will be thrilled. Bless you!
Love Love this series you're doing. Can see the care and enthusiasm y'all have through this process. Yall are a true treasure. Have an amazing week. Blessed Be
I always make my husband slide the drawers back in 😂 Also, using curtains and a tension rod is a good renter friendly way to have "doors" on the pantry.
You have the biggest heart!!!! You are so kind!!! It is so good to see somwone who heips kids and now your own family. You and your husband are very special pair. It just makes my heart so happy to see your videos and see who you are helping next.
I really love watching you do this for your sister in law. This is mostly how I lived my whole life. Keep up your beautiful work. You are an awesome person. So is your husband and children. ❤
I work with the organization in my area and I love it. So glad to hear you use to do that. I recommend going to your local children’s society and talking to them in person.
I furnished my daughter’s 3 bedroom rental for less than $350.00. Lots of free stuff, including couch and love seat. I made my 9 yr old grandson’s bed with a $30.00 mattress from a casino, plywood and 4 by 4’s. It just takes a bit of time and fearless curb shopping! I love this show!
Just finished watching the reveal on the home makeover and have to say “ you done good.” It looks pretty amazing and your family should be so proud of what you accomplished together and the result of hard work and generous people.
This is so so fun. I love the foster videos . Sometimes don’t you wish you had your own little laundry mat in the back were you could do large loads quick 😊😊❤️
Its nice to see you doing this. My husband thought I was nuts when we got are first place and I insisted on cleaning the house before we moved in. I learned this from my mom.
I could not agree more about the extent of the cleaning with rentals. Having lived a somewhat nomadic lifestyle in my pre children years I have lived in a lot of rentals. I have always cleaned every square inch of the place exactly as you have including mopping the walls. People used to question my sanity when they found out I mopped walls. I recently did this for my eldest daughter and her partner. When he heard that I even mopped the walls he looked at me like I had two heads and asked “why on earth would you go that far??” To which I replied if you had seen the colour of the water afterwards you would not be asking that!” 😅
Oh wow what fun it would be to decorate the whole home, I love the chalange to do it with free and thrifted finds!! Thanks for takimg us along, cant wait for the next vid!
How blessed your sister-in-law is to have you!❤
And we are blessed to have her too!
Bless you. Love you.

There are others who will help you. I am in Central Oregon. Where are you?

How very sweet of you to be helping your sister-in-law! Looking forward to seeing the next video.
Thank you so much! I'm excited for part 2 as well!
Wow, that hutch is beyond nice!! And for free....amazing!
And the crazy thing is it was posted up for free for over a week and no one picked it up!
@@DesertDIY whaaaaat????
It is a beautiful piece!
GIRL, I am exhausted just watching this video. 😁Your sister-in-law is one lucky person, and you are such a kind soul to do this for her. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to the videos to come.
Y'all are such a blessing. Family takes care of Family! So happy this video came on my feed. I look forward to watching all of your videos. God Bless.
I so love what y'all are doing for them.😊
I also love the concept of paying it forward.
People like y'all are what the 🌎 world needs more of.
Thanks
You are an amazing sister-in-law for doing this! Hope she appreciates all of your hard work. ❤😊
After this video premiere we are going to be picking out a wood tile for our floors in our house
Hi Cory! Your videos are never long enough. Even if they were 3 hours long! I am so stoked that I found your channel. I love watching you and Manny work together. Cant wait for episodes 2, 3, 4 etc.
I remember watching you and your husband work on projects to help kids who had aged out of foster care. I was so impressed by what you were doing. I even told my friends about it. Unfortunately I am disabled and use a walker or wheelchair. After 10 years of this I finally found a doctor who might know what is wrong and how to treat my condition. I’m so excited!
Thanks for reminding people to clean before they move into a place. Yes, disgusting! I can’t wait to see the final results. I know it will be amazing!
Praying that your doctor will be able to help you. Blessings!
I, too, am wheelchair/walker bound. And I pray your doctor can find the reason for your condition and help you with a solution (my issue is my weight; if I could drop 75-100 lbs, I could be well on my way to walking on my own again). Best of luck to you!
Can’t wait for the rest of the series! This is so much fun to watch & see what you are going to do. The hutch is a great piece to start with. Your sister-in-law is very fortunate for your families help !

How wonderful to be able to help others. We need more like you. Great video too. I'll be looking for more with you.
So excited about this. Love your family's heart for those aging out of foster care and giving them a helping hand❤
Ya'll rock. You can tell ya'll have been a military family. You are a blessing to all who come in contact with you. I can't wait to see how your sister-in-law's home turns out. 😊
Oh yes. And my children have 2 marines as parents haha so they are built tough and hard workers too. Thank you!

Thank you! and I get a lot out of it too since I get to post it here on youtube (plus its really fun for me!)

haha why can't we do the drawer right? great idea with the curtains
Looking forward to the series! What a great idea for both your sister in law and your channel!
I could literally see the sweat forming on your back. Such a hard worker you go girl. And good job looks great and excellent find on the hutch.

It was so much fun!
Very nice of you, there’s not enough people that help people anymore. God Bless you❤
Holy smokes!
That's a massive piece of furniture! It was beautiful as a buffet, let alone the hutch on top. 😍
Right?! So beautiful
Manny is a keeper!! ❤
Can't wait for part 2!
Absolutely he is. We are at her house working on stuff as we speak 😀
Looking forward to the next one.
You guys are the sweetest and I love the way you work together and help others as well as being very very crafty and frugal ❤️
I'm so here for this series. Well, I watch ALL your videos anyway. But this extra fun!! 🤩
What a wonderful thing you are doing for your family. I’m excited to see the process. You and your hubby have such kind hearts! God bless your family.
I work with the organization in my area and I love it. So glad to hear you use to do that. I recommend going to your local children’s society and talking to them in person.
Can’t wait to see the rest of the makeover. Great tip on a “clean” rental home.
Coming soon! Thank you
This was so nice of you to do this for your sister in law. It inspired me to wash my walls,lol. Cant wait for part 2!
What a blessing!! I love doing this..see how much you can do with nothing! Great job!
I furnished my daughter’s 3 bedroom rental for less than $350.00. Lots of free stuff, including couch and love seat. I made my 9 yr old grandson’s bed with a $30.00 mattress from a casino, plywood and 4 by 4’s. It just takes a bit of time and fearless curb shopping! I love this show!
Thanks be to God for you and uour husband's hard work and all tjose who donated!! ❤
Just finished watching the reveal on the home makeover and have to say “ you done good.” It looks pretty amazing and your family should be so proud of what you accomplished together and the result of hard work and generous people.
What a treat to be able to watch you and your husband prepare your sister's home. I am anxiously waiting for the next segment.
Thank you! Coming soon!
This is so so fun. I love the foster videos . Sometimes don’t you wish you had your own little laundry mat in the back were you could do large loads quick 😊😊❤️

Really enjoyed this content!!! Can’t wait to see the finished project, you and your husband are good folk, I’d love to be your neighbor❤
That is just so awesome the way you and your husband helps people out especially your family. I wish my family could be like yours. God bless.

Welcome back! Thank you so much. Yes we moved to Houston 2 years ago

Wonderful🎉 this will be a great series!
Oh wow what fun it would be to decorate the whole home, I love the chalange to do it with free and thrifted finds!! Thanks for takimg us along, cant wait for the next vid!

Awesome, Love what you and your family is doing
