I Tried Buying The Cheapest House In California
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 апр 2023
- When I saw a home in California listed for $20,000 it brought me down a rabbit hole of wanting to buy it, but is it really worth it? Check out the $18,000 House: • Inside America's Cheap...
Curious about this home? Here is the listing: www.redfin.com/CA/Palm-Spring...
I couldn't believe how cheap this house was listed for, and of course it was too good to be true BUT even at $200,000- it was still the cheapest house for sale( that wasn't a total shack with no running water or electricity). It has so much potential with the midcentury modern butterfly roofline, I had to atleast entertain the idea of buying it. What do you guys think of Windy Point?

Back in 2007, during my time working in real estate, I witnessed people purchasing newly built homes from builders with the plan to sell them before the closing of escrow to another buyer for a profit. The crash hit hard and fast, and I vividly recall many of these units ending up foreclosed upon, with the builder's plastic still covering the carpets.
Most people find it difficult to handle a fall since they are used to bull markets, but if you know where to look and how to maneuver, you can make a size-able profit. Depending on how you intend to enter and exit, yes.
Accurate asset allocation is crucial. Some use hedging or defensive assets in their portfolio for market downturns. Seeking financial advice is vital. This approach has kept me financially secure for over five years, with a return on investment of nearly $1 million.
Would you mind telling me how to contact this specific coach using their service? You seem to have the solution, as opposed to the rest of us.
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Sonya lee Mitchell turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
I searched her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon. Thank you
If you are worried about wind, don’t get rid of trees-they act as a buffer for your property that redirects and slows the wind up and over to make it a really nice space, if anything, plant more-and shrubs, strategically. -an architect
Agreed. I was looking a comment like this ❤
I suspect there would be much more wind there than that realtor wanted.
I have property in the area and the trees look like tamarisk trees. They are a good windbreak, and grow well in the area because they can tolerate a lot of sodium in the soil, but they can be a huge nuisance. They grow to be huge, their branches are huge, and they break off constantly and usually unexpectedly. There are much better trees for residential areas.
Some will tell you what if the trees fall on the house in strong winds?
@@litehold1144 They also planted the tamarisk trees along the railroad tracks as a windbreak.
Hi Monica,
It's my first time watching one of your videos. I'm a contractor in California, specifically in the Los Angeles area. However, I'm very familiar with the Palm Springs area, especially Windy Peak. I strongly advise against buying this house unless you plan to tear it down and build a new one.
Here's why:
The house was previously used as a marijuana grow operation. I can tell because of certain signs, such as the floors being ripped out and replaced with cheap laminate later on. This is a common practice when selling such properties.
The return duct grille is completely rusted. In indoor marijuana grows, houses are sealed to prevent neighbors from smelling it. However, the high humidity within the sealed house causes metal, like the return duct grille, to rust.
There are patched-up holes throughout the house. Growers typically run pipes through walls, and these patches are evidence of that.
The toilet is black, a result of chemicals flushed down during the growing process. The showers are brand new because workers need a clean place to shower due to the high humidity and pollen from the plants. Most of these workers are Russian, Armenian, and Ukrainian women who are accustomed to cleanliness.
Now, the reason I strongly discourage buying this house is that it's been infested with dangerous mold. No amount of lime or mediation will fix this. Marijuana grows create a humid and hot environment, perfect for breeding dangerous pathogens. I'm surprised the seller didn't disclose this information.
This is awesome feedback. Thank you so much to this information. Now I know what to look for when getting those too good to be true deals.
Great information 👍👏🏻🫶🏻
Great informations
why are white people leaving California ??
Wow
it saddens me that this house is 229,000 the worlds gone mad.
exactly almost one quarter million for a dump with 0 potential! insane!
Sold for 250k. Will sell again for 450k after renovations.
It’s not JUST the wind, it’s the yearly sandstorms and dust clouds that fill your house and batter your plants and fill the pool. It’s the windiest place out there hence the windmills, PLUS the neighbors can be very sketchy/methy. But hey, it’s affordable , if you don’t mind dusting all the time go for it!
…And she just pulled the trigger
methy sketchy neighbors is a understatement! theres a reason for all the fences and bars on the windows! yeah east LA is close to beverly hills and its comparetively cheap too but do you want to live there i dont!
True.
Thats how it was when I lived there in the 80s and 90s.
I had 1 old woman who was a retiree who was very nice.
But the neighborhood was very low class.
but just look at that view!!!!!!!!!! (of nothing but rocks on the side of a mountain)
Hi daddy. I love u
Honestly speaking about the real estate situation. The industry has driven home prices too high for most families. The solution is for prices to align with family budgets, even if it means a market correction. The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that doesn't depend on the govt.
Nice one, I tell my friends everyday. it's good to save money but gotta allow that investment sprite of you if really want financial freedom.
Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in Gold, silver and Crypto
What if you don't know how to trade any of these? I mean, see your point some people have the money and are to invest, the question is where to.
@@Jeannetteallen89198 Yes, you’re right 👏
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day invt decisions being guided by a invt-coach, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using a invt-coach for over 2years+ and I've netted over 1.5million
the home across the street belongs to Dani Daze, a fellow creator/interior designer. She designed the Trixie Motel!
I'm sure she wants millions of people to know that. So entrusive
have some tact and respect for people's privacy and edit/delete your comment.
lol thats why I never want to be known for anything, people just like to give out personal info for friends.
****HE****
Straight up Doxxed someone online
They have been saying windy point was an up and coming neighborhood since I was a kid, and I'm now 73. I got a mobile home in a own your own land park in South Palm Springs for $120.000 back in 2013, and they are now selling for the mid 300s. There are also vacant lots for sale.
It's a hard place to live if you have an old house. Now, the construction techniques are so good that you can pretty much live anywhere comfortably. The problem (and solution) is that there is almost no code enforcement...
@@SnakeHelmut How is no-code enforcement a "problem" if you're the homeowner and resident?
Great video! For 2023, it’s hard to nail down specific predictions in the housing market because it’s not yet clear how quickly or how much the Federal Reserve can bring down inflation and borrowing costs without tanking buyer demand for everything from homes to stocks.
There is no greater freedom than handing back the key to a airbnb apartment knowing someone else has to maintain it. If you enjoy renovating and decorating then perhaps home ownership is for you. For me, property is another way we get tied down.
@@edward.abraham I suggest you offset your real estate and get into stocks, A recession as bad it can be, provides good buying opportunities in the markets if you’re careful and it can also create volatility giving great short time buy and sell opportunities too. This is not financial advise but get buying, cash isn’t king at all in this time!
@@hunter-bourke21 You are right! I’ve diversified my 450K portfolio across various market with the aid of an investment coach, I have been able to generate a little bit above $830k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
@@Believer292Do you mind sharing info on the adviser who assisted you?
@@Kim.beneteau Big Credits to ''Julia Ann Finnicum'' she has a web presence, so you can simply search for, there are some others but it might be difficult to get them, but Julia has been a good guide through the year.
So it's not a $20,000 house lol that was the reason I clicked
You got me
Was just about to type that. 🤦🏼♀️
Exactly!! 😂
Click baiters suck
@@joeygemini6390 yep and so does this lame channel
yeah, that's some bullshit. She bought a house quadruple the price of $220k, aka $1million dollars?! Yeah, that's not $20k, and annoying af.
omg this is hilarious because I stayed at Windy Point for Coachella this year and the first night was HORRIBLE. The wind was so loud none of us could sleep the whole night. It literally sounded like the house was going to blow away. So I personally would not ever buy in Windy Point lmao
It must be called Windy Point for a reason LOL
Well, it appears that to reduce all that wind noise , in the house, I woulld definitely have double-paned glass windows throughout. Also, I would have extra insulation in the walls to help absorb a lot of the wind noise. I design things for a living and I would definitely perform some experiments to figure out the best solution for the wind noise.
@@jj-if6it I also thought it was appropriatley named.
I love the sound of wind!
this is why its called windy point and why there is wind turbine everywhere, if something is cheap there is a reason
Hey Monica - I LIVE in Windy Point! My house was the one in the video that was “kind of fixed up.” - the little white one with the bright orange accents. Yeah, it’s windy here. Sometimes bad. But it’s kind of seasonal… worst in Jan - early May and hardly at all in the summer/fall. Bought my place in 2010. You do NOT want to know what I paid. Ridiculous. But it’s a great how to buy a pool home for all cash (when you don’t have any) and be mortgage free story if you’re interested. We were very innovative, to say the least. Lemme know how to get in touch and I’d be happy to share!
Very curious about how you bought a home for all cash without any!! 😮
I'm interested David lol Your house looks cool
I wanna hear that story!
yeah who would pay half a mill for a middle of no where old "fixed" house
I mean ridiculously low@@kimohono5667
I think I bought the cheapest house in Southern California. It was back in 2015. Well, actually it’s a 600 square foot cabin on a .75 acre lot. Located in Landers, close to the Joshua Tree area. At an altitude of 3300 feet, on any given day the temperature is 10 degrees cooler than Palm Springs. It needed a lot of work but I was able to do all the work myself. I think I counted 4 cars passing by today. Great area to escape the rat race. Home Depot and Walmart just 12 miles down a back road. Food and supplies - me be happy!
Btw- $28000!
I wanna see?!
Congratulations on the new home. So fun to watch you and Erich working together. Loved the mention of the Palm Springs lot. Good luck and can't wait to watch more as you settle into the new house.
My good friend bought a house years ago outside of Palm Springs near the mountains like this house (maybe closer and higher) She only lasted about a year there. It was spectacular, beautiful, but also incredibly intense to the point of being unnerving at times. A strong wall around the property would be a big help. Some severe weather systems blow out of those mountains, and they can happen real fast. I've hiked up there.
Similar thing happened with one of my high school friends, except up the desert in 29 Palms (he was contracted at the Marines base). His place was renovated when he bought it and was good for just a bachelor pad, but simply commuting to it, the wind, sandstorms, 110 degree heat, and getting anywhere close by was lonely/sketchy. He had an incredibly hard time selling it because of its remoteness.
I build metal fences in the area that can withstand 100mph winds and are fireproof.
It's crazy to me that someone would need a dryer in the desert. In Australia we typically don't have them, and anyway it's so much nicer to air dry clothes especially in the sun
It's called convenience. For one, the sun leaves clothes crispy. And who has the time to hang them on clothes line these days? Besides it's too windy anyway.
@@tom4wlt people are too lazy.
I know my son lives in Scotland and very few dryers. I got used to it and didn’t mind it. I used to hang my clothes outside when I lived in Florida but you had to be mindful because the sun was so intense it was great for whites but could easily fade colors.
@@llc1976right!
Sand might have to do with it.
I retired in California
Bought a home in TX for
$23k cash.
400sqft. Love it so much
😮
@@parallelpost I’m so blessed
My family and I use to live on Skyview Drive in Windy point and yes it is strong winds all year long. We moved to Yucca valley and had much better views with mostly all lots being 5 acres.
Definitely been showing lately the work and renewed passion you have for your content recently! Love it!!!!
Great video Monica and congrats on the new home! SO exciting, congrats and hope the process all goes well for you!
Congrats on the new home! I can’t wait to see videos on it!
Loved this video by the way - thanks for taking us along on the journey!
Thank you for watching! 😊
If you wanna be successful, you must take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
@Carl Peterson It's amazing how people are trading without fear of making losses, while so many people out there are patiently waiting for Bitcoin price to skyrocket...😂
the market is profiting if you are using a good broker or account manager to help out with trades or provide signals

I met Expert Mrs Kimberly last year for the first time at a conference in London, I invested €25,000 and traded in one month making close to €90,000
@Lauren Nicolas No doubt Expert Kimberly Kent Trading Services is very good, I invested $5,000 and cashed out $14,700 after 3 weeks.
This was a awesome video, thank you for sharing! Congrats on the new house, can’t wait to see more. 👍🏻💛
Aaah, I love this video so much!! Palm Springs is such a dream. So excited to see your new place!
You 100% got the house cause you had your good luck sweater from Jason on! (I think lol). Congratulations you 2! Can't wait to see more of the house 😍
Questions about a house like this: 1. How far away are those mountains. Is there landslide danger? 2. Where does the water come from? Private well? What's the water quality, both bacteria and sulfates? 3. Is there a septic tank? what shape is it in? 4. How many neighbors are drug dealers? (You're only 5 minutes from Palm Springs.) 5. Check the climate year round, not just on three days. 6. Visit on a Saturday night. How many loud parties are going on? 6. Good for you for spotting the bad roof and bad sewer lines. I'm glad you didn't buy this house.
Ray from Praxxus55712 said when looking for a house to get an inspection done by an independent inspector , they aren't looking at the property with rose colored glasses 🙂 you would make a good house inspector 💖🙂 ALMIGHTY YAHWEH 💖 and MESSIAH KING YAHSHUA 💖 please bless and keep you , you have good qualities to be an inspector and Ray is correct , you need someone who is independent and with a good reputation to inspect.
You ask great and pertinate questions 👍💖🙂🙏
I can see the future in the housing market and the reason I see what I see is that all this are big issues that prevent people from going off-grid. It is only a matter of time before something big happens in the industry and the way people live will be changed forever.
A: 1. Thousands of feet from the mountain; no danger. 2. Water comes from (Desert Water Agency) DWA private wells up Blaisdell Canyon to the south. All the water is tested by DWA and is clean and healthy. No sodium fluoride. 3. Most homes are on septic. (Depends on inspection). 4. Most are not drug dealers. Most are blue collar workers or retirees. Some artists. 5. Windiest time of year is spring. Hot summers, perfect fall and Winter. The wind in the spring can rip your clothes off. 6. Saturday nights are quiet. Not many parties/ rare. The wind keeps them inside in the spring. 7. Roofs can be replaced and sewer lines don't last forever. Most of the local builders have run into all of these problems and more. They are all fixable. The home sold for 250k.
Hey came from Google seen your video being put out there and fell in love. Your so detailed, genuine and informative thank you loves
Congrats Monica and Jason! Looking forward to the tour of your new home.👀💓
What a great find Monica. 👌🏼Congratulations to you and Jason. 🎉🎉🎉
Monica, since its so windy you should consider a vertical wind turbine to reduce costs vs your sister only getting solar on her palm spring property.
Love love love your videos. Also just want to say that you are great at speaking without it sounding scripted. I love that. Makes it so much more pleasant to listen to. 😊😊
I live in the valley. It's incredibly windy when the season shifts due to the temperature difference between the top of the mountain and the valley floor. When the mountains are snowcapped (particularly San Jacinto) and the desert is warm it keeps the valley cool. When the wind stops, that's when we start getting heat waves. You learn to appreciate it.
I’m so excited for you and the new house! Can’t wait to see it! Hope all goes well. Good job Monica and Jason!!!
Thank you!
@@MonicaChurch If you don't mind me asking, total cost🤔🤔
Thank you
@@MonicaChurchAlso, what does it smell like? Hopefully not poop?
We considered Desert Hot Springs, and it hit the highs on our budget. Bought a home in NW AZ for 280k with an even better view that you see in this video.
Dodged a bullet.
Literally. Probably a lot of bullets
Much less wind in nwa
Norway is nicer!
Bit is there an aerial tram nearby with world class nightlife downtown within 10 minutes?
@@SnakeHelmut not what I was looking for. But within an hour we can get out to the desert heat in summer and out of the cold in the winters.

Goddamn, when $200k is the cheapest house in Cali, new housing desperately needs to be built everywhere to meet demand. Absolutely insane that state/town legislatures have let it get this bad.

@@RamblinRoadies i looked at the description on top and it says 20.000 but thats another house i see now 😆
@@MyLordAndMyGodJesusChrist it's good practice to watch a video before commenting.
@@RamblinRoadies Do you feel better now.
About 40 years ago I lived in Cabazon, which is nearby. It was windy ALL THE TIME. One day I got up and looked across the street and saw my neighbor's house completely covered in tumbleweeds, blocking the garage and front door.
These kinds of things are important to observe uyp front BEFORE making a purchase in that area. But also, all I can see is a piece of land that a windmill can be installed and sell the energy to the power company. I don't know if that is allowed or possible. Or maybe install a smaller windmill to power the entire home?
Look at Cabazon now. Thriving year round with billions in real estate and millions of tourists.
Eeeee!!! So excited for you😊
Well that’s it Shelby is def moving back to Cali!!! You’ll be there, your folks and she loves it there! It’ll be fun for y’all to be together again!
I've come to realize that the key to amassing wealth lies in making sound investments. I purchased my first home at the age of 21 for $87,000 and sold it for $197,000. My second home, acquired for $170,000, was later sold for $320,000, and my third property, purchased at $300,000, fetched $589,000, with buyers covering all closing costs and expenses. Not reaching a million before retirement feels like an unfulfilled goal.-
I'm exploring different investment opportunities and would appreciate others' insights on this matter.~
I initially started my investment journey with the guidance of a financial advisor named *Jenny Pamogas Canaya.* Her transparent approach granted me full control of my investments, and her fees are reasonable, considering my return on investment. Nonetheless, it's crucial to conduct thorough research before engaging with any financial advisor.-|
your also like 60+ find me a home nowadays for under 100k. You guys brought inflation for my whole generation.
Keep a few will pay off in future
How were you able to buy a house at 21? Did you receive an inheritance from your grandma?
Well, how fun is that! Looking for a cheap home to buy and end up buying a better one. Seems to me that Windy Point is aptly named. Most likely from the winds coming off the mountains nearby. Looking forward to seeing your new place. Congrats!
Fascinating video. We are buying properties in the nearby area of joshua tree, and we see a very similar pattern. You are competing against people who are bidding up properties way past what they're actually worth. I keep saying I will not compete with a dumb buyer to make a bad purchase. I think you made the right decision. It's also california, where we have the most real estate investors in the country, and tons of people with a crapton of money. They don't care about value, they just toss money into things. Anyway, I look forward to seeing what you purchased!
So happy for you Monica
Thank you! ❤️
I was born and raised in the Palm Springs area so I looked this place up.... it's actually considered part of Palm Springs. And yes it's always very windy there because it is situated at the start of the Coachella Valley where the mountains are close together. It's the reason there are so many windmills close by cuz that is the windiest part of the Coachella Valley. I would not have bought that house so it's good that you didn't buy it!
Or maybe buy the house but use the land to install a windmill and sell the energy to the power company.
Does the wind come from the Santa ana mountains ?
The wind comes from the funnel effect between the San Jacinto Mountain range and the San Gorgonio Mountain Range. It's also a result of prevailing wind direction and elevation change. The wind keeps the area cooler, fresher, and quieter than other parts of the desert. @@ianmangham4570

There are areas of the Coachella Valley that are usually windy and have many sand storms. I have a friend who used to live in that area. When I visited, the wind was so loud, I couldn't sleep at night.
Some sleep better in wind -- imagine being on a ship at sea with the wind blowing through the rigging, it's calming and almost rocks you to sleep. Many prefer some white noise (fans, etc.). In downtown PS there's an airport nearby with plane traffic coming and going 24/7. You don't have that in Windy Point.
Love u monica. Ur videos always make my day. God bless u ❤
Windy point is the ghetto of Palm Springs lol. Oh and by the way, it’s really windy out there.
Congratulations ❤ can’t wait to see the house!!
Very insightful on how you estimated buying this property or not, thanks for the video!!
I looked at that house online and liked it but that subdivision failed in the 1960's because of the wind and that it was too far sway from town. Nevertheless, I;ll bet that many of those old MCM homes were designed by the architects that did the subdivisions in town. It was seedy when I lived in the desert but it looks like there's some investment going on as South Palm Springs is becoming unaffordable. I love the breezeblock! Desert Hot Springs needs to pull itself up too...
Congrats on the new home, that is awesome. My cousin recently got married in Palm Springs and we were able to visit for the weekend. I definitely see the appeal. Looking forward to more videos on the new place!
Thank you!!
What a great idea for a channel you have here! Brilliant and fun!
The Mountain View😍 , yard and yes even the house with that much potential to in it. I love the weather, sunny and windy , such a magical place. If I only would have the money, I would buy it in a blink ! Thank you for sharing !
I don't think windy is the best adjective for the "wind" at that location. More like boisteous, gusty, blustering. A breeze or gentle breeze sounds nice... But the wind there seems to be at very uncomfortable sound levels. May even require ear plugs to be tolerable.
I love your real estate videos. Just an idea…but what about auction houses?? That would be interesting to learn about

The cheap old house had a lot of character but definitely needed a lot of work to be done. I'm excited to see the house you did end up buying though!
I looked at that house 7 years ago and couldn't find a realtor who had any information. There was nothing burned at that time. Very strange area out there at night, and there are some real oddballs living out there..!! Basically you'd be all alone, and I mean alone. I was going to start a Fat Farm with running/walking paths up to the mountains.., and of course it does have a Palm Springs mailing address..(chuckle)..!!
Hi! Enjoyed this. I am an architectural home designer. That first house, I think I would suggest enclose the present carport to be another Bedroom. It already has a roof. Then add a new prefab. metal carport canopy roof cover - to the other side of of house front. Follow the butterfly rooflines. Preserve the cool mid century architectural vibe. Re-paint the home something bright and fun. The more BR’s that are listed on paper, will boost the home sellable value quickly. Carports are easy targets for this. Sell it, and then do it again with another carport style home. Ps site walls will buffer that wind. Hang some some chimes. Cheers!
I think any old mid century should be preserved in close to original if possible. Sometimes converting carports into bedrooms can come back to bite the owner also.
New subscriber I love your video and I learned a lot things about this
Congratulations to me it’s amazing that I just bought my first landed property few days ago, I feel so happy for myself and my accomplishments so far. I’m so happy I made good decisions about my finances that changed me forever❤️
I can share something that helped me
1. Plan towards it
2. Be Frugal and minimal on spending (don’t buy why you don’t need)
3. Save money towards retirement
4. Save to invest, this is most important because it’s a proven way to get rich. Very important path to financial success
There’s a lot of investing options but my best advice is to get a professional who will guide you into a more profitable investment, that’s exactly what I did.
Congratulations, I definitely agree with you on this, a professional financial advisor will help you make the best decisions about investing.
I work with Mrs Hazel Carter, her services are cost effective and very efficient. I recommend her to anyone, anytime any day. she’s really great.

Have you given any thought to your water recycling & storage plans? I worry that the palm desert & joshua tree will be dry year round soon, lots of dry wells in that area too.
Theres plenty of water from the colorado aqueduct and desalination dont panic the sky is not falling chicken little! LMFAO!
The water in Windy Point comes from deep wells west (and uphill) of PS -- there are also springs up the canyon.
The house in windy point nice view of the mountains and wind look nice. But good job on not buying that house not worth the headache. But congrats on your purchase you guys can’t wait to see the your new place
This was a great video. Thanks for the info. True, Palm Springs is a great place to live, but that house is a real project!
When it’s windy in “Windy Point” your car will be sand blasted of all it’s paint!
I LOVE THE HOUSE !!! I love houses from that era! Wish you all the best. Sad to just flip it and make things cost so much more.
i love really warm weather and have wanted to live in the palm springs area during the summer to avoid our sometimes coastal summer fog this would be a great way to do this thank you very much for this presentation

Windy Point is in the Banning Pass in the valley between Mt San Jacinto and San Gorgonio Mountains. This valley is around 500 feet above sea level and the surrounding mountains are roughly 10,000 feet. This forms a natural wind tunnel and is the reason windmills were introduced to the area 100 years ago. It is adjacent to the wind farm with 5000 plus windmills. Yes it is windy and prone to sandstorms. The best properties are close to natural wind breaks so do your research and check the weather conditions. I’ve seen sandstorms lat three or more days where you do not want to go outside.
Research is crucial for a location like that. The fact that there wind farms nearby is a great indicator what it's best used for. Living in an area like that must be extremely uncomfortable except for maybe those who can't hear as they would only feel the wind but not hear the noise it generates. But those sandstroms is another thing that would make it a less desirable place to build a home at all. Maybe those homes that are already there bought BEFORE they realized what that wind would create everyday and it was tool late!
Endless free energy for the wise.
One photo looked liked termite damage. It may need to be torn down and start all over building from scratch.
that may be why it got pulled from the market. Someone got an inspection report with termites listed.
I'm a new subscriber, but have seen a couple of your previous videos. I know nothing about the Palm Springs area. I noticed bars on the windows - not a concern? And congratulations on the new home purchase. I look forward to getting a full tour of it.
Congrats to you both!!!
Love this! Way cool houses. I looked up the cheapest cities to live in Cali and looked at houses.. ended up in Mexico instead for now.
I’m sure it is pretty over there, but it just looks so dry I can’t see the beauty in the mountains. I’m too use to the trees in the south eastern states. But as far as location and proximity to things, it is great! And you got the beach near by so that is a def win! :-)
My Brazilian self thinks the same.
The beach really isn't nearby - at least in my opinion. It's about a 2-3 hour drive at least.
Great video Monica :)- Kudos to you and Jason!!!! New to the video and I enjoy your content!!
Congratulations to both of you!
If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to build generational wealth and cultivate financial knowledge, you must be in the market.
I agree with you and I believe that Professionals are currently dominating the market since they have access to both the necessary strategy for making money in this industry.
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more
@@Florencecoxx Understanding your financial needs and making effective decisions is very essential. If I could advise you, you should seek the help of a financial advisor. For the record, working with one has been the best for my finances.
I’m Glad i stumbled on this. Please, if its not too much of a hassle for you, can you drop the details of the expertise that assisted you and how to get in touch with him?
I get guidance from *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* . Most likely, the internet should have his basic info..
When you ask me its a lot to do on this house and make it sense to install a wind turbine or solar ? I know Shelby talk about solar on the Palm Springs house because the pool heating situation.I don´t know if you watched Will Prowse from DIY Solar Power this guy is very nice.
Heck, do both! I see properties up here in Oregon that have residential windmills! Would be a good idea at windy point I would think!
Congrats on the new house! 🎉
Excited to see the new house!!
good thing about a cheap fixer like that in cali is its so dry so you never have to worry about moisture damage which is what totally destroys abandoned homes everywhere else. dry weather preserved it for your reno. something like this is the only way i would ever consider moving to cali
Dry rot, termites, rodents, cockroaches, and snakes cause lots of damage. This year was amazingly wet with lots of flooding. Moving to Coachella Valley takes a toll on you. It’s like a sand storm in a convection oven.
@@victoriaglass7584 sand storm in a convection oven...😆
well damn, my ginger ass better just stay in the east TN mountains
Bars on the windows is a Very Bad Sign..... Rule #1: Location, Location, Location...
Curious of what camera you're using that has such nice stability but such a loud click on the exposure knob. Like are you recording in 4k 60 with a full frame bad boy or what's up?
Here in Northern California it's waf all the time. When we hope there is a warm day, it wrecks with 20mph winds making it feel like thirty degrees. Trees help sometimes. Not always.
GIANT Wind Turbines next door . . . . Monica: "I WONDER if this place is 'windy' all the time" -- LOL :)
Hahahaha!
exactly! duhhhhhh monica! lmfao!
WOW. This channel is brilliant. Obsessed.
Thank you!
@@MonicaChurchmaybe try Maine instead of California. Maine is beautiful.
@@MonicaChurch 👋 Your video is very nice 👍 🙂
