Thank you for bringing us along on this journey in such a real way. I love seeing you move into your dream home and look forward to watching it evolve over time. I also love to think of future Carter and Matt looking back to see how their beautiful home has turned into theirs over the years. Kudos to you both for doing things DIY and thrifting - we love to see it! So inspiring to look for things second hand and try projects myself. ❤️ from BC
feel for you! i am so surprised your home inspection didn't catch the plethora of issues. Some seem to be health and safety issues. Here in the US the seller would have had to make a lot of the repairs in order to ever close on the house UNLESS it was a full cash sale and then the buyer could waive all the issues/repairs needed. Feel for you guys. This is a lot.
I never really talked in depth about our home inspection, negotiating the price on our house, all the work needed, etc. so maybe this is a good opportunity to explain that a bit further !! 🥰 We knew most of these issues going into the house and that's why we negotiate the price on it and got it for such a good deal! Just because we have found small issues with the house doesn't mean that our inspector didn't do a good job! A lot of these issues (actually most of these issues) we knew about during our home inspection and that's why we got such a great deal on the house! Our home inspector did an amazing job and pointed out everything we needed to know about. But home inspectors can't find every little hidden detail for you (like lack of insulation behind the door because they're not gonna take down the trim to look for it). Home inspectors really just look after structural, plumbing, electrical, HVAC etc. We knew buying this house that the windows were not well insulated . Some of these items are some really small things that were not the home inspector's responsibility to find. We knew that a lot of the projects done in this house we're not done properly once again, which is why we negotiated the price on the house! We knew that our shed roof was caving in and would most likely have to be demolished for example. But overall anything that we found since buying the house is a very very small issue that we can repair on our own for cheap! ☺️
Oh 100%. It is a lot of work that needs to be done even from the home buyer side but we bought this house because it's a fixer-upper and we got such a great deal on it so we knew this going into it. It is a big project for us.!
@@nedtechgirl well good thing we bought it and not you ❤️ we love this home and obviously it needs work, it's a fixer upper... but the house is actually in GREAT condition for being 100 years old! it has no foundation, electrical, plumbing, roofing (on the house) issues so we are actually doing great! Most of the work on it is cosmetic like modernizing it abit and things we can do ourselves! Also in this day and age fixer uppers is honestly all people our age can afford with house prices and interest rates here in Canada so we take what we can get 🤷🏼♀️
Great vlog Carter! Your new house will all come together. The best part is you are making it your own. Hope you feel one hundred percent soon. Its a beautiful home. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. 🖤✨️
Hi 🙋🏻♀️🏡Moving to a new house is very tiring and doing the housework and waiting for the housework to be completed takes time😩But your house looks a little warmer every day because you organize it so beautifully😊I hope all your housework will be finished soon and you can rest comfortably while making videos wit ☕️cup of coffee . By the way look at this 🎄xmas tree 🤩how beautiful,all 🎄xmas trees like magic✨They re making home so cozy aren t they ? I'm curious about the decorated version of the 🎄😇tree, I'm excited for your new vlogs, thank you for these shares. Stay healthy and enjoy🤗🫶🏻🌸
Carter, what is the name of that Ikea piece you built!? That’s such a great idea to do record storage. I would love to get my dad this for Christmas! Please let me know 🤍🤍 Love you so much girl
Oh yes the joys of living in an old home. My husband and I lived in a lot more damaged house let’s say 😅. The sewage outlflow pipe from the septic tank blew up on us 😂. Tbh the house probably needs to be torn and rebuilt. It was sold for land value (50 acres).
@@CarterSullivan we enjoyed our time in the old house but we couldn’t stay for complicated reasons I can’t really/would take a novel. We definitely will look into an older home for our next house.
It probably looked some what organized, but it was one of those spaces that we just kind of threw stuff in when we moved! And it was very cluttered and not organized in terms of the actual bins! A lot of it was still in it's like moving containers!
moving is the literal worst and I love the realness about how much of a process and slog it is to get fully unpacked and settled ♡♡♡ learned the hard way earlier this year haha

Glad it's not overwhelming for you two and you can fix it all on your own without too much time and expense. Looks like a lot from a viewer side.

I hope you literally got it for half price cause I can’t even imagine the amount of money you’re gonna have to sink into it

I hate flare sheets too! I now use them to put over my duvet for my dogs who shed like crazy! No shedding on my bed 😊
Wait, that is so smart and now instead of not using the flat sheet I'm totally gonna use on top of the bed because Stella loves to relax there!!

loved this!! can you link the lamp?
The IKEA ones? They are called the "BLIDVADER"
I hear you girl! My office / library was my #1 priority too!
YOU GET ME

The record player stand? Its from Wayfair actually! It's called "Audio Rack by George Oliver" on their site!
Congratulations on the paypal sponsorship! I love paypal; that's so exciting that you were able to work with them 😊
It was truly such a big moment for me so THANK YOU for this kind comment 🤍
You should watch Steph Bohrer. Her last vlog had these really large and tall library that she made for her space. I was really impressed with them.
I love her videos! Our library is abit different since we'll have a tv in there as well but still excited about the big tall bookcases!
@@CarterSullivan I also hope you feel better.

It's a fun journey I will say!! I love living in an older home even if it comes with its own challenges

Where is the wooden record player holder from??
Wayfair- here's the link! www.wayfair.ca/furniture/pdp/george-oliver-audio-rack-c100124572.html
I thought the linen closet was organized already😂
It probably looked some what organized, but it was one of those spaces that we just kind of threw stuff in when we moved! And it was very cluttered and not organized in terms of the actual bins! A lot of it was still in it's like moving containers!
@@CarterSullivan I gotcha! Linen closets are so satisfying when they’re organized but it tends to lasts days for me 😂
my guess is you guys are getting another dog! (for why someone was coming to check out your house)
🤭🐶
