I like this place, just like Stephan it's modest and humble. Not flashy or flexing like so many people. Some homes I see featured online are like...... stiff, tight fiitting dress shoes. They look nice, but they cause blisters. Graham's new home is like a pair of good quality running shoes. They fit perfectly and are super comfortable.

I'm glad he got something really nice that speaks to him instead of falling for the excessive frugality trap. I've known a few hyper-frugal people who got millions and still denied themselves what they wanted in the name of money. As an example I knew a guy with five figure net monthly cashflow after personal expenses who wouldn't buy his dream home because it was "overpriced" at $440k, and was still torn up by missing out on it years later (but still refused to give an offer that high).

@Fuert Neigt I dont mean to attack you, but I think you shouldn't put negativity out in the world just because someone else is more lucky/fortunate than you (I don't even think that, being a youtuber is way more work / riskier than you think). I just say it because in the end the only one who will suffer negative feelings in the longterm from this is yourself. The way you write I can see you're a good guy, but don't let the negativity tear you down! Work on getting a confident and positive mindset about yourself, independant from others. 💪
@Fuert Neigt being a youtuber is not easy, there is so many things to do and be good at before you make money from youtube and even harder if you want to make big money, some of those are of the following 1.) Planning for videos for content: >Good script or story > Creative and unique > Full of information while being funny at the same time > Takes time 2.)

It somehow looks Indian too, in a way. Finn, are you into self improvement? If yes, I'd love to get your feedback on my channel because you can give me some awesome insights :)
I am Spanish and i totally agree. It reminds me of the South of Spain in many ways. It is a lovely house. The only thing im not too fond of in houses is the arch on the walls. I love the kitchen tiffany blue colour and that pairs really well with warm colour wood.
Ya that’s way I love early to mid century California home architecture a lot of it Especially in Southern California mirrors Spanish architecture so much. I can’t stand post modern architecture with its sharp and sterile feeling lines.
Great outdoor living space Graham. Love the privacy. I'm guessing you have someone to take care of the yard maintenance, which looks extensive. Nice video.
I’m a plant lady, so watching your tour around the garden was exciting(secretly wishing I had your plants, the home is lovely, but the plant set up is everything. Recording your videos in the dark room is great because I can focus on what you are saying, but, I hope you record videos out in the garden as well. Just gives more life to the content. :)
Graham is literally the reason I just bought my first house . He is honestly one of the most useful RUclips channel on RUclips. Forever grateful for the information he drops .
ivy Stanage I thought this too and loved the idea of a cottage fairytale home BUT I rewatched twilight lmao and I am OBSESSED with the “Cullen house” (very modern and contemporary) I would sell my ass cheek for a home like that.
Wow, this home has everything I could ever want in a home. All the greenery and tranquility of the property is simply amazing! Super happy for you Graham.
As an electrician I dont think 80$ is a rip off, remember to put up the light depending on what kind of connections it uses and how the bracket is built it might take anywhere from 15 min to 1 hour to do it, and you also need to drive to the place to do the work, witch also takes time, and they need to get paid for that time, I don't know the laws in America and I'm from Norway and also working in Norway. But after every I install we have to do alot if paper work to dokument that what we have done is done correctly, if you do not do this here u can get alot of trouble with the insurance company if something where to happen. Again this is from a Norwegian mindset with the laws here in mind, but it would not surprise me if it where similar in America
@Jacob Monnin my dad is an electrician, licensed electricians charge usually $100-175 for the first hour & around $75-100 every hour after that. But everything is up to code of course and if an inspector where to walk in they would find no problems
Since watching Graham I've saved $9,000, started investing, have a amazing retirement plan, and got my credit score from 580 to 684 in about a year. And now I am about to buy a house at 22. Thanks for all the advice Graham.
That's great. I purchased my first home at 28 at 35 I moved out and rented the starter home. Several years later I was able to acquire rental property. Sold all rental properties and retired at a young age. You have a great future buying your first home at 22 Congratulations .
Wait, a house with a 684? What’s the price of the house, down payment, and interest rate? I’m looking for a house myself at 22 with about 50k down, not sure if it’ll be 10% or 20% down but I have a 750 credit score and thought it would still be too early for me to be able to buy a home
Absolutely gorgeous home. This would be my type of forever home. Also I had a very similar breakfast nook growing up. Once you put furniture and curtains up, the acoustics will improve a lot. Especially if you put cushions on the seating, and if you want, a rug.
This is how wealth remains in The hands of wealthy. It never redistrubutes. In these hard times, $80 for the electrician probably would have meant a lot and he wouldn't even have noticed it going out of his bank. If i was that wealthy, i would look for ways to give jobs and pay to more small workers like that. Just a random broke guy's thoughts.

It’s a really sweet home and clearly a childhood dream which is so lovely. You deserve it Graham, you work hard and you give to others. Enjoy all the blessings in your life. Smashed👍🏻
@Fuzzybucket where's your evidence of that?? He didn't go to college and worked as a real estate agent since 18. He grinded for over a decade to get where he is. It doesn't happen overnight. You're just jealous.
Lmao yup exactly what I thought, whatever helps Graham sleep at night. If you take the real math, He is living there for an extra 3 grand a month plus the 800,000 down.
I am 19 years old got the discover it card and just this morning opened a Roth IRA. I've saved $2000 to begin a small investment portfolio and to try to take big risk investments early in my life. I appreciate your content and I am also on your discord. I appreciate you Graham for all the information you give especially to the young teens! Congrats on the house!
I've been a fool with my money throughout my 20s, I've been making 6 figures since I was 23 and nothing to show for it. at 30 I changed my life around. Now I have a massive investment portfolio, own my first property and looking to buy my second one next year. All thanks to Graham. Keep listening to him!!
Honestly look into betterment for a Roth IRA . Betterment strategy uses mostly vanguard index funds but it’s very well diversified. It’s perfect for decades of compound growth . They also reinvest the dividends for you and allocate between all the index funds for you so you don’t even have to think about it.
The front breakfast area could have a sunroom/indoor jungle type of vibe! PLANT PLANTS PLANTS everywhere. There’s so many windows in there I’m sure they would thrive!
6:50 Are you kidding me, that bathroom is like the best feature of the house!!! A spacious shower, dual vanity and a tub. That's like something I would "add" to a house LOL!
yea I hate small bathrooms, never enough space to put your stuff. This big bathroom makes the house feel much more luxurious. and the separate toilet is also a plus in my book
He's thinking of it more from the perspective of renting the property later down the line/selling it. An extra bathroom adds more to the value of the property than one very good bathroom. With the renovation it will still be great as it is, plus the benefit of another.
Yo daniel check out my bands EP We’re called Folktale san pedro the EP is called “four short expressions to make a good impression” played keys and synth
Late model homes in L.A. are fantastic bungalows ... new homes are ... meh. (Like the show 'Weeds', ... "little boxes, on the hillside ... made out of ticky-tacky... and they all look just the same"
WOW.... good for you, young man! What a great accomplishment & absolutely beautiful home, guest house & area!!!! Am sure your parents are so proud of what/who you have become & all you do. Hearing what your parents paid for rent when you were 8 & knowing that those who are sick, retired, on SSI/disability etc.. are expected to live on about $14 more than they paid just for rent & wayyy back when. $1500 for the entire month... I know it took a lot of hard work etc. Just please never forget how truly blessed & fortunate you are. Stay humble & smart.... Enjoy, be safe & well. :)
those hallways are quite narrow and even the door way.. im too thiicccck to fit between those halls.. lol I love the space though. Congrats on the new place.
I am obsessed with that white. Room. Those windows r to die for. Idk what I would do either. Take your time. It will one day just come to you and you will be able to complete that room. The house is exceptional. Its gorgeous. Yippie for you ! Love Susan
Thanks for sharing, Graham. Lots to love about the house. Love the old spanish look as well. Wish I could have seen more of the outside of the actual house/roof etc., but I loved the living room, the dining room, the window off the dining room, the serving access from the kitchen ... and i hate narrow kitchens, but I think your kitchen was much wider than it looked on camera ... and I actually like the aquamarine color. Didn't care for the narrow hallways, but the master bedroom was gorgeous, with that beautiful private bathroom (which I personally would not change). Great patios, backyard, gardens, privacy etc. Oh, and I agree that the breakfast nook definately needs work ... I would say the tile has to go. Put in a nice wood floor with the wider slats, paint the walls with that mexican fleshy orange color (forget what it's called), which would complement the kitchen, and maybe put in some better looking windows with nice wood molding, and perhaps some built in seating like you did in the dining room ... for a nice little coffee room for relaxing in the morning. Or you could axe the windows, and just make a nice food pantry off the kitchen ... buying in bulk to save some cash :) Anyway, love thinking about renovations :)
Antonio Sarosi i firget what it’s called but it’s kind of like breathing techniques same thing singers and rappers use whole performing and u barely hear there quick breathes
I saw Graham on my way to home, thought of talking with him, but no no no i had starbucks coffee on my hand. I ran like a rabbit thought if he sees me then he gonna rip me off. 😂😂
@@chloerines HE is insinuating that his family were keeping property values down in their old neighborhood. This is called a joke... Please don't loot a Target and tear down a statue of Graham over a joke! :)
@BearGuap He could, but I doubt he'd be able make a profit on his $7700 monthly housing costs. The real estate price to rent ratio is really high in Southern CA, which means renting is generally more affordable than buying. His housing costs will remain fairly stable over the years, while rents and the price of real estate fluctuate. I suspect both rents and real estate costs will drop very soon, and prices won't catch up to our current level for a very long time.
@@jzen1455 If i were to rent everything out, I'd profit about $3500/mo in net cashflow + about $2150'ish mortgage equity. That required me to put a lot of money down, but rents in this area are and have been incredibly stable and my cost is fixed. A good school distract also goes a long way here.
I applaud your good taste and admiration for antique houses. I believe in buying older, charming houses because they deserve a chance too and have more soul than newer houses. Good choice. I love the landscaping with the mature plants.
I've been a fool with my money throughout my 20s, I've been making 6 figures since I was 23 and nothing to show for it. at 30 I changed my life around. Now I have a massive investment portfolio, own my first property and looking to buy my second one next year. All thanks to Graham. !!!
Good for you. For me, I currently in college with a part-time job at Kroger as Drug GM. I currently have 20k in the market that is mostly giving a fixed income for my second income source and still continuing to build it. What do you have for your incoming sources?
@@FireyCam that's awesome, great work. I only have 2 source of income. I own my own company and in that same field I work for other companies. So my company (kinda) gets me passive income and when I work for other companies that's my active income. Been freelancing in the same business since I was 21 :)
Congrats Gram! The sitting room off the kitchen would make a nice room for Ramsey! With the echoes you can hear all the meows no matter which room you’re in!😸
Thing is, it's probably a really good time to be buying assets with cash. Even housing. The value of cash is going down. This is why the stock markets and material assets are not dropping as expected.
I love your new home, especially the outdoors! If one day I have money, I want the outdoor to be very similar to yours. I am excited and happy for you. I wish I have a music/drums room. A drums room is the only reason why I would need to upgrade to a house.
When you mentioned Ramsey’s toilet 🚽 I didn’t realize you meant litter box and for some reason I was picturing a little toilet for him to sit on like the cat from meet the fockers 😂😂
This guy did a great job showing his house. I bet he'd be a great real estate agent.
He used to be I think
That was his old profession
He did do real estate, now he's focusing on RUclips now!
Bunch of newbies lol yes he was and still is lol
He is
Grow avocado tree in the backyard, so you wouldn’t have to buy one for avocado toast again.
But it takes soooooo long for the avocado trees to grow but it’s eventually worth it
He would calculate how much he would spend on water to water that avocado tree and then write off the amount of solar energy it uses to do photosynthesis on his taxes.
@@nonsensecommences2273 you can buy a grafted tree that will fruit in a year or two. (need two type a & b for polination)
Factoring in the $3.50 cost savings on avocados per toast, the house will practically pay for itself after 600,000 avocado toasts
I use to have a Avocado tree in my backyard right off the Sunset Strip! I miss my old place a lot just for that tree!

😂😂😂😂
😂😂🤦🏾♀️
Mythbusters would be proud
Bruh how do y’all know this?
Graham Stephan: SAVE YOUR MONEY Also Graham: I think I’m going to have an aquarium in this wall
that's what savings are for :D
What’s the point in saving your money if you’re not going to spend it
Saving his money has put him in a place he can do that and not lose 1/5 of his passive income in one month. That's the point you can do those things.
He’s been wanting an aquarium for a while...you must be new
@Fuzzybucket where's your evidence of that?? He didn't go to college and worked as a real estate agent since 18. He grinded for over a decade to get where he is. It doesn't happen overnight. You're just jealous.
Me: "I pay $1,000/mo to rent my place, but that money goes towards paying my rent, so I'm basically living for free."
So what's the point?? Why don't you live in your place instead of renting it??
@@FazzyKVlogs r/wooosh
I was gonna give you advice but I don’t wanna get r/wooshed
@@freshxan r/wooshhhh. For not giving any advice.
Lmao yup exactly what I thought, whatever helps Graham sleep at night. If you take the real math, He is living there for an extra 3 grand a month plus the 800,000 down.
Beautiful house and the garden is amazing! Congratulations!
I am 19 years old got the discover it card and just this morning opened a Roth IRA. I've saved $2000 to begin a small investment portfolio and to try to take big risk investments early in my life. I appreciate your content and I am also on your discord. I appreciate you Graham for all the information you give especially to the young teens! Congrats on the house!
I've been a fool with my money throughout my 20s, I've been making 6 figures since I was 23 and nothing to show for it. at 30 I changed my life around. Now I have a massive investment portfolio, own my first property and looking to buy my second one next year. All thanks to Graham. Keep listening to him!!
Keep me updated, I have saved up around a good amount, but I have no idea what to do with it. How can I make more money off of it
how do you access the discord
Honestly look into betterment for a Roth IRA . Betterment strategy uses mostly vanguard index funds but it’s very well diversified. It’s perfect for decades of compound growth . They also reinvest the dividends for you and allocate between all the index funds for you so you don’t even have to think about it.
Also investing means long term gains , low risk in long outlook. gambling means short term gains but high risk . Invest don’t gamble .
New home, same like button. Congrats, Graham!
thank you!!
Clever
Haha beating the comment algorithm Pierce ;)
Investing Engineered Haha! Yeah I was ALL OVER this one 😂
The single bed house is for me landscaper.
Props to Graham for always taking his shoes off when he is at home.
Phil Ho does that satisfy your inner asian
Umm we are in a worldwide pandemic, who isn’t taking their shoes off when they get home rn?
Is that not normal ?
@@josejosejosejose8009 And European
It makes me happy that someone else is happy about this.
The front breakfast area could have a sunroom/indoor jungle type of vibe! PLANT PLANTS PLANTS everywhere. There’s so many windows in there I’m sure they would thrive!
Graham, I don't know anyone who deserves a home like this more than you do! Congratulations 🎉
Thanks for the numbers.
6:50 Are you kidding me, that bathroom is like the best feature of the house!!! A spacious shower, dual vanity and a tub. That's like something I would "add" to a house LOL!
I second the motion.
yea I hate small bathrooms, never enough space to put your stuff. This big bathroom makes the house feel much more luxurious. and the separate toilet is also a plus in my book
Seriously
He's thinking of it more from the perspective of renting the property later down the line/selling it. An extra bathroom adds more to the value of the property than one very good bathroom. With the renovation it will still be great as it is, plus the benefit of another.
I was going to make a "men are dumb and don't appreciate a good bathroom" comment, but you're a man and you get it. Graham is obviously confused!
Graham cracks me up. Makes tons of money and still gets excited about the little things... Like dining room tables 😂😂
It's all an act.
PIANO SPOTTED AT 1:49
Yo daniel check out my bands EP We’re called Folktale san pedro the EP is called “four short expressions to make a good impression” played keys and synth

i literally love when you comment on stuff
It’s really nice of Ramsey to allow you and your gf to live in his house.
Fuzzybucket
Ramsey, Graham’s cat.
I bet it was named after Dave Ramsey
😂👌
He's sparing us for when he eventually takes over the world.
Graham: First thing you'll notice is the absurd amount of privacy
Me: First thing I notice is the absurd amount of gardening maintenance required lol
I dont see a grass lawn to take care of though.
@@JuiceAddiction grass is the easy bit buddy!
Bet he will be spilting the cost of maintenance with his tenant in the other unit
Cara D The amount of water is killer.
As a tree guy thats the first thing I thought
For some reason, I thought you'd be into a modern home. Anyhow, this house has lots of rustic charm that's lacking in modern homes.
Late model homes in L.A. are fantastic bungalows ... new homes are ... meh. (Like the show 'Weeds', ... "little boxes, on the hillside ... made out of ticky-tacky... and they all look just the same"
I didn't think these were of my taste, but I can definitely see the charm. I dig it.
It has good value
I thought he was a modern type of guy also
WOW.... good for you, young man! What a great accomplishment & absolutely beautiful home, guest house & area!!!! Am sure your parents are so proud of what/who you have become & all you do.
Hearing what your parents paid for rent when you were 8 & knowing that those who are sick, retired, on SSI/disability etc.. are expected to live on about $14 more than they paid just for rent & wayyy back when. $1500 for the entire month... I know it took a lot of hard work etc. Just please never forget how truly blessed & fortunate you are. Stay humble & smart.... Enjoy, be safe & well. :)
This is awesome man! When is Christine Quinn coming for the tour?
This property needs a full time gardener lol
those hallways are quite narrow and even the door way.. im too thiicccck to fit between those halls.. lol I love the space though. Congrats on the new place.
👀
@@jagoforreal 😂😂😂
That's a mood 😂
I am obsessed with that white. Room. Those windows r to die for. Idk what I would do either. Take your time. It will one day just come to you and you will be able to complete that room. The house is exceptional. Its gorgeous. Yippie for you ! Love Susan
Been a fan for years, so happy for you man. Long RUclips hours and holding off on spending excess money for years! Congrats man! 🥳
It’s so nice to hear you talk about the emotional aspect of your purchase. I think that’s awesome to live in your childhood neighborhood!
He was kicked out of it and he clawed his way back in, victorious.
Be careful with the succulent plants, they're poisonous to cats. That's how my cat died last year.
Yep if Ramsey decides to indulge he will die 100% btw does anyone else want a Ramsey youtube channel?
I hope he read this.
🤣
Succulent plants for everyone! 🤣
rip to your kitty :(
Thanks for sharing, Graham. Lots to love about the house. Love the old spanish look as well. Wish I could have seen more of the outside of the actual house/roof etc., but I loved the living room, the dining room, the window off the dining room, the serving access from the kitchen ... and i hate narrow kitchens, but I think your kitchen was much wider than it looked on camera ... and I actually like the aquamarine color. Didn't care for the narrow hallways, but the master bedroom was gorgeous, with that beautiful private bathroom (which I personally would not change). Great patios, backyard, gardens, privacy etc. Oh, and I agree that the breakfast nook definately needs work ... I would say the tile has to go. Put in a nice wood floor with the wider slats, paint the walls with that mexican fleshy orange color (forget what it's called), which would complement the kitchen, and maybe put in some better looking windows with nice wood molding, and perhaps some built in seating like you did in the dining room ... for a nice little coffee room for relaxing in the morning. Or you could axe the windows, and just make a nice food pantry off the kitchen ... buying in bulk to save some cash :) Anyway, love thinking about renovations :)
Graham says, " My secret talent is being able to talk without taking a breath for two hours".
Their cut clips
@@GenZPatriot Regardless, he talks for a while before the cuts.
I can't stop focusing on it now lol I keep thinking about how he isn't breathing for so lonf
Antonio Sarosi i firget what it’s called but it’s kind of like breathing techniques same thing singers and rappers use whole performing and u barely hear there quick breathes
That is the truth
I love how Ramsey is shown in almost all the rooms 😂
What a coincidence that he was in all those rooms!
This house is freaking BEUTIFUL
wow Graham ... absolutely stunning!!!! the landscaping and ambiance of the home is unreal.
The “reading area” would make a great office room you could wrap a custom desk around the circular shaped room
I like how you actually tell us prices and stuff.
It's weird seeing him with legs. Real wierd.
LMAOOOOOOO! **
you said what was on everyone's mind
HAHHAHAHAH! Hilarious
LEG REVEAL!
and walking...
Congratulations bud! Enjoy it. You deserve it!
Me: I bet he paid at least 900k
Graham: I paid 2,100,000
Me: Surprised Pikachu face
I had it around 1 million. Was surprised at 2.1 but that's California.
I had it at around 1.8 because he said walking distance to the beach.. I wonder what city.. I want to say its around playa vista or el segundo?
I mean he paid 900K just on down payment. Cause 40% down plus closing cost. Damn I guess the youtube business is booming haha. Glad for him
Same but it started quite low until he started walking around seeing those huge bathrooms and garden.
He actually only paid 840k and will pay far less with how much it makes him.
I saw Graham on my way to home, thought of talking with him, but no no no i had starbucks coffee on my hand. I ran like a rabbit thought if he sees me then he gonna rip me off. 😂😂
Notice how you said, "One we moved out, the neighborhood skyrocketed in value." Hmmmmmm Hey, you said it!
im lost so can you explain what that indicates or what it means, what are you insinuating? thx lol
@@chloerines I assume he was indicating they were an annoyance. Just a guess tho.
@@chloerines HE is insinuating that his family were keeping property values down in their old neighborhood. This is called a joke... Please don't loot a Target and tear down a statue of Graham over a joke! :)
Yes reading nook with plants!! In that cute little front spot :) so much light there it’s perfect
Graham's got *fruits* in his backyard!?
Pair that with *$.20 coffee* and you're set.👌 You seriously deserve it Graham.💃
Lol free fruits now, vegetables coming soon.
He is probably planning to get some hens in fr the eggs and some freshly cooked chicken
That’s breakfast.
Graham, the type of dude who doesn‘t want the dining table to take over the dining room.
I bought this house for $2.1 MILLION. Let me explain how I'm living here for free :)
In a few decades, he'll be able to live in it whilst earning money renting the other half out.
@BearGuap He could, but I doubt he'd be able make a profit on his $7700 monthly housing costs. The real estate price to rent ratio is really high in Southern CA, which means renting is generally more affordable than buying. His housing costs will remain fairly stable over the years, while rents and the price of real estate fluctuate. I suspect both rents and real estate costs will drop very soon, and prices won't catch up to our current level for a very long time.
@@jzen1455 If i were to rent everything out, I'd profit about $3500/mo in net cashflow + about $2150'ish mortgage equity. That required me to put a lot of money down, but rents in this area are and have been incredibly stable and my cost is fixed. A good school distract also goes a long way here.
@BearGuap I could, but I think he's talking about the rents increasing over time while my cost is fixed.
Oh hey Gideon
I applaud your good taste and admiration for antique houses. I believe in buying older, charming houses because they deserve a chance too and have more soul than newer houses. Good choice.
I love the landscaping with the mature plants.
Gorgeous bright and great outdoor space. Congratulations Graham! Your hard work is really paying off :)
It really is! This place is incredible!
like count of this comment is how many times Graham said 'close proximity to the beach'
new drinking game!
First 10 minutes: Totally Sober
Last 5: *on floor*

I've been a fool with my money throughout my 20s, I've been making 6 figures since I was 23 and nothing to show for it. at 30 I changed my life around. Now I have a massive investment portfolio, own my first property and looking to buy my second one next year. All thanks to Graham. !!!
Wow fantastic! Congrats 😁😁
Good for you. For me, I currently in college with a part-time job at Kroger as Drug GM. I currently have 20k in the market that is mostly giving a fixed income for my second income source and still continuing to build it.
What do you have for your incoming sources?
Six figures at 23? Doing what and where?
@@mostcallmerob don't want to get too specific but working in entertainment in Los angeles!
@@FireyCam that's awesome, great work. I only have 2 source of income. I own my own company and in that same field I work for other companies. So my company (kinda) gets me passive income and when I work for other companies that's my active income. Been freelancing in the same business since I was 21 :)
Congrats Graham! Like the new place a lot and glad you could purchase a place that made you feel a special connection to your childhood.
Congrats Gram! The sitting room off the kitchen would make a nice room for Ramsey! With the echoes you can hear all the meows no matter which room you’re in!😸
I hope this is a vid about how I bought a house for $7.32
😂 I wish it was
LOL if only that was real 😂
At this point we might as well just give Ramsey %50 of the ad revenue if he’s gonna make this many appearances
Only 50%? Are you trying to underpay Ramsey? At least 75% 😜
Imagine how many cardboard boxes ramsey can buy with that much money
Finally, he solved the mystery of what kitchen he filmed his lasagna video from! I've been wondering!
I literally noticed the same thing
What I loved about this property was the dishwasher, you'd cook a mean lasagna in there 😅👍
I was confused with that video as well, i thought they may have been as GG's place or something, but now we see it's his new place.
Everyone: house is so beautiful
Me: KiTtY!!!
Yeah I’m more jealous of the cat than the house 😂
I don't need a house like this but I would feel so much better if I could have a kitty. ;_;
Hard work payed off !! Ur house is nice !
“It’s broken but nobody knows“ actually 100k+ people know now lol
Random suggestion: Maybe you can fill the crack with gold colored epoxy (Kintsugi)?
Everyone: Don't buy homes right now, the markets are going to crash!
Graham: Hold my iced coffee!
He bought this wayyyy before.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You only lose money if you sell...
Who the heck says that? Major metropolitans are unaffected.
Thing is, it's probably a really good time to be buying assets with cash. Even housing.
The value of cash is going down. This is why the stock markets and material assets are not dropping as expected.
Congratulations, we are so proud of you!!
Thats one of the coolest most charming houses Ive ever seen
Did anyone else notice how many time he mentioned how close the house is to the beach?
Take a shot for everytime Graham says beach! 😂
Because it’s the main selling point. Hell, I’d be continuously mentioning it too!
The house is within walking distance of the beach
This home is stunning and the plants give it to so much life
I love your new home, especially the outdoors! If one day I have money, I want the outdoor to be very similar to yours. I am excited and happy for you. I wish I have a music/drums room. A drums room is the only reason why I would need to upgrade to a house.
"an actual wood burning fireplace, like not a fake one!" Lol no offense Graham, but I can tell you're from LA 🤣
ye ik
Right. Here it's uncommon to not have a wood burning fireplace lol
Thanks for pointing this out -I was like ... people have fake fireplaces 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
I think he meant that it's not a gas fireplace
I live on the East coast and my parents house growing up had a fake fireplace
When you mentioned Ramsey’s toilet 🚽 I didn’t realize you meant litter box and for some reason I was picturing a little toilet for him to sit on like the cat from meet the fockers 😂😂
Lol I was wondering what he meant I didn’t know he meant litter box haha I’m slow
Damn Ramsey probably has a dirty litter box from all the 20 cent iced coffee
Jus Might I just died bro you did too much
I knew he meant a litter box immediately. I have two cats
Animal Collect don’t worry me too
