- Hey Ya'll! :)
Whew!!! I can't make this stuff up... the seller wants to walk away from our contract based off of the results of the appraisal. Needless to say, I'm stressed out. But anyway, this is my first time vlogging & letting you guys see what I do on the day to day! I hope you enjoy it & I promise to get better as time goes on!
I love y'all so much! Thanks for supporting me! 💕

My first day in the life vlog!! Y’all gotta let me know what you think of these types of videos!
Please LIKE the video!! 👍🏾Thanks for the support! Love y’all! 💕
Don't be sad Young Lady, buying a home is so difficult, and you need to make sure it is the right place for you. Safety come first. God bless
Great job vlogging girl.
Young Lady Business I’m upset with your realtor, like for real! Go to the FHA site and find a realtor that specializes FHA/Government programs. That is what we did. The seller is suppose to come down on the price. They are refusing to pay for the basic things they are responsible for. My heart is hurting for you because this is the same thing we went through.
@@majida70 . I think she is in Georgia.
The sellers need to get it together.
Let them cancel and put back on market. Just maybe God's blessing and protection from disaster.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I agree. Just make sure she doesn't lose her deposit. Let THEM terminate
This is soooo wrong. This girl wants a house sooo bad and they taking advantage. She doesn't have money to pay for scaping or whatever. If they aint willing to pay, give her all of her money back. Deposit s are suppose to be refundable. Where is her lawyer!!?
@@YoungLadyBusiness , please contact a lawyer. Some of the comments are telling you from experience something ain!t right with this deal.
Something about this house I didn't think it was for you
I wouldn't even be trying to force the deal. The fact they had papers sign to protect them against the lead paint lets you know they already new it was lead. Obviously that house been on the market for so long for a reason.
Totally agree! Walk away.. just as long as you get your deposit back
In older homes it’s required (the lead paint addendum) but def reg flag with the other stuff
Personally, I would not pay for something that the sellers should take care of. If I recall in the previous video they refused to take care of the gutters and something else. I am all for home buying but that’s not the only home on the market. The home may appraised for $130,000 but if it needs $10-20,000 in repairs (not cosmetics changes) than it isn’t technically worth $130,000.
I know you want a home but please operate in wisdom (don’t just make heart decisions over logical long-term ones). When you mentioned the roaches I automatically wondered what other things have been neglected with this home. Please also consider getting a pest control inspection, what if the home has termites or carpenter ants (technically the home owners should pay for pest control)? Lead, mold, foundation/structural, wiring, and infestation issues are nothing to dismiss during the buying process. The homeowners seem to be a bit stubborn and they are trying to sale their home base on “what it was” and “the profit they want to make in the home” and not the reality of its current condition🧐. I would be concerned that they had someone point over the lead... Also there is a strong chance that your interior ceilings, walls, and window ceils etc also contains lead). Lead can lead to health and developmental issues.
I have learned to heed to red flags because they tend to be warning signs.
Amen...so true; take heed to the red flags! These sellers are trying to sell a very inferior property for top $!
This was my same thoughts, I know she likes this home, I just hope she doesn't settle, when she can find another home on the market without all these issues
This!!!
Agreed! This is not the house for her. She shouldn't pay squat! That house is a money pit. You shouldn't put money into a house before the own it. Gurl... if you don't walk away from that house. With a house that old it DEFINITELY has lead paint and they know it. Lead paint abatement is expensive. Lead paint encapsulation is also an option but not work the aggravation
@@damphatty Her realtor wasn't helping...I think her realtor just cares about getting paid
Baby girl! The LORD IS TELLING YOU TO BE STILL. I have watched your journey in trying to buy a house and it’s been nothing but hurdles and failures ! Let me tell you this WHEN GOD HAS SOMETHING FOR YOU you WILL NOT HAVE ONE BIT OF A HICCUP! There’s is nothing faulty or Skeptical about GOD AND HIS BLESSINGS. Make they compensate you for all of your time and energy & let them terminate that contract!!! And sing HALLELUJAH all the WAY TO THE BANK!!
IN JESUS'S CHRIST NAME,I AGREED"!When God our Provide r is guiding us, we have to have an Encounter & Discernment to know when to proceed,and when to let go..When God has a Blessing for you,he will give not give you CONFUSION!!!When you pray for God's Will to be done in your life,HE NEVER FAIL"!PLEASE YOUNG lady,be Mindful!!!!!!!
I agree. Many years ago when buying my first home, it was like an odyssey that went on for 13 months! Yes, 13 months. I was determined just like you. Once I got in the home, the basement bathroom became unusable b/c tree roots were growing in the plumbing. I called the home warranty company, they said they didn't cover it.
The utility bill was sky high. It was an older home. It needed a new HVAC system, I didn't know that. The back deck was rotting. Just young and excited.
I made another mistake of using the seller's agent, (who was also a managing broker), as my agent. So, there was no one to look after MY interest. The agent/broker got TWO commissions! About 2 yrs later, I foreclosed on the home :(.
Lesson learned: be patient in waiting.
Now, I own another home. I had a realtor to represent my interest and she took very good care of me.
I know you want to be on your own, don't rush. Take your time, save a little more money. You don't want a home that has any structural issues. You want to spend your money on making the home "cute."
I just thought of this: the lender kept saying this appraiser is tough. Maybe the appraiser purposely was hard as a way of protecting you.
Continue to be prayerful. God will speak and you will know. God Bless, Young Lady & be About the Business!
Exactly when God is involved there won't be any issues with the process. It will be smooth sailing the whole time. I had to be patient because my 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice fell threw because other people bid high but the last one I had 0 issues through the entire process.
Yessss....absolutely agree 100%!!! It was the same thing that I was thinking as well.... BE. STILL. I'd learned this the hard way back in my 20s.
AMEN
Don’t ever fall in love with a property until it’s officially yours. I learned that from a very successful investor.
You should consider getting a new Realtor. We just bought our first home in GA and alot of the things the seller is doing are a huge red flags. A strong and honest Realtor wouldn't even go for any of it. As far as the smoke detectors it should be one on each level and in every bedroom! You shouldn't not put up any money! Especially because this is something that is written in the appraisal report! You really should reconsider purchasing this home. For your Realtor to even agree with you coming out of pocket to pay for any of that is crazy to me!
I agree. Her story seems to be similar to mine. I was about to purchase a $175k house and my realtor was speaking with the seller. I decided that now is not the time for a home purchase because no one was honest in my deal.
I’m going through something similar but my realtor is fighting for me and has advised we will walk away. Her realtor seems only interested in her commission
I'm going to be blunt and say her REALTOR sucks. Sorry.
EXACTLY! I forgot the the realtor is also in this process. Why didn't your realtor advise you to walk away? (I haven't watched the end of your vlog yet so I'm guessing the realtor didn't tell you to walk away) but ... is the realtor pushing you to buy as it's an 'easy fix'? I'd be very wary if that's the case.
@@Applejaxy YESSSSS! Realtor is counting up the commission already!
I believe that they have been down this road before and they are trying to get over on you. I know you want this home but you may be better off buying a newer home. God bless you in your home buying process!
Thank you!! 💕
So, a thought for you. If you’re getting an older house or a “fixer upper” you have to get into your mind that you will have to finance the “fixing”. The market is in the favor of the sellers right now. So if I were you, I’d get a house that wasn’t so old with all the concerns. You need a more move in ready home babe. I’m sorry this process is so crazy!
That's what I'm running into,this is a true sellers market. Heck people are even over bidding her by like 20k
@@HUeducator2011 yup! everyone i know personally is having to compromise on things that normally would've been taken care of by the seller, but they know they have the advantage bc someone else WILL buy it. The market is insane right now
EcoTree72 THIS !!! 🙌🏾
Another problem that most don’t think about is about how older homes plumbing, electrical, water heater etc gets grandfathered in when you buy BUT when it eventually breaks and it’s time for YOU to fix it you have to upgrade it to meet the new codes. I speak from experience, we bought our home and two years later our water heater blew up. We had to lift the new unit off the ground take down shelves and cut into the wall to give it its own space to meet code. It was a headache.
Agreed, I've commented and said this before. When I was 23 I bought an older home and it was just problem after problem, too much for a 23 old to handle. I eventually had to do a short sale on it because I was sinking in debt from all the repairs. Years later, I bought a new construction home after thoroughly doing my homework about the builder and their warranty. I will never buy another used\older house, my first experience ruined it for me.
I own a home and went with a conventional loan and the reasons you're having a hard time is because the homes are older which has to be up to code based on your type of loan..FHA USDA and there's another one that will not allow the sell to go through with certain things wrong with the home. You will need to have a conventional loan which doesn't have requirements that need to be met. The only thing about that loan is you may not get funds from a program towards your home like you're doing. I think the best thing is to find a more updated home. Owning a home is more than making it cute. your really want to make sure the foundation is in a healthy livable condition. And I have Fire alarms in every room. Just do not settle. Once it's yours you can't go back and you don't want to be in the middle of a disaster that you can't afford.
Absolutely, because the problems later could be a financial catastrophe for you!
100% facts.
This felt way too familiar… From the back-and-forth with people who aren’t invested completely and you buying your home so they aren’t overly informative or suggestive you almost have to force the bottom line question out of them which is well what options do I have?...Don’t be discouraged love...THIS Is the tough part that you must GET THROUGH Because it won’t be easy for such a great reward at the end. Don’t give up when they aren’t providing solutions I can already see you’re on point with working on finding your own solutions too so keep it up ...I’ve heard so many times during my homebuying process the seller will terminate the seller won’t do this the seller won’t do that but in the end it worked out so don’t let it get the best of you it will all work out♥️
I love this message!! Thank youuuu 💕💕💕
GlamorousWallflower yeah. It feels horrible. I know if I ever sell i will be kind to the buyers and leave my place in the best shape.
Yes!! I feel like they are not fighting for her hard enough or giving her reasonable options and are ok with losing the deal.
My good sis, I had to come back and comment and plus one what's being said in all of the comments. When I bought my home a couple of years ago, I literally had to walk away from the deal because the seller wanted to sale it for a higher price. I was the highest bidder, but the seller wanted more money and told my realtor they would put the house back on the market. I let them do it. In the end, they realized I offered the best price and contract terms and sold it to me. I share this to say, if God has already told you the house is yours, then the shenanigans of the sellers won't stop you from getting your home.
Kayla I would let them put it back on the market. Something more is coming and God is in charge with your journey. You don’t need lead paint anywhere near you
So nearly two months ago, I was stressing over a closing for a house. The seller was not meeting end of the contract. She cheaped out and made a bigger issue out of something. I ended up backing out the day before closing. It was really hard.
Two weeks ago, I closed on the right house. I've been painting the interior and getting everything ready, I'll be moving in tomorrow. I feel so at peace with everything that happened.
I have been following your videos for a while now. We are similar in age well as current life events. Not telling you to act one way or another, but if you don't feel totally at peace (and I mean peace, not just excitement) with something, I wouldn't go through with it. If it doesnt work out, there are other houses out there.
capsizedduck aww so happy for you!! 😊😊 congrats!! I’m going to reflect more on that thank you! I know I’m definitely excited to have a home
I hate how HGTV makes buying a house look so quick and easy, unfortunately that isn’t reality :(
I hope everything works out for you, you look so heartbroken :(
*hugs from Texas*
Right!! Buying a house is very very hard!!!
Awww thank you!! 💕💕💕
I'm learning so much from this process too. HGTV had me fooled.
Jessica Ellis I learned the hard way when we bought our house
it’s by far the most difficult adulting process. a tv show could never show the reality of that.
......And renovations. I completed a reno last year and it was so stressful! But HGTV puts it on an hour show and everyone is happy!
Gurl, I didn’t want to say it before, but you are being taken advantage of by this seller. Back out! You will be blessed with the right house for you. It took me 3 years to get my house because I dealt with the same mess you are going through. Roaches are running all through that house 🤮
If I back out, I lose my assistance.. 😩💕
I’ll keep y’all updated with what happens next!!
@@YoungLadyBusiness your assistance can't go to another house?
Sweetie you may lose your assistance, but is it worth following through with something that may result in expensive and extensive repairs? Sometimes when we are constantly confronted with obstacles it may be that it's just not the right time. Just like you found assistance this time, you will find it again when the time is right! You may have to consider finding a home that is more move in ready and add character and charm to it. I wish you the best!
@@YoungLadyBusiness oh sorry to hear that
Michelle White ... Exactly. She also need a realtor who fights for you. We went through 2 realtor before we found one that got the builder (brand new home) to reduce the price after the FHA inspection.
Yup, run girl! Don't take on that burden for the lead paint cleanup. The right home is out there for you, don't give up!
I'm so sorry you are having such a hard time buying a house. Me personally, if your having this type of luck, somebody is trying to give you a clear message that its not your time to buy. For lead base paint, to have that correctly removed, I think that there is a special way to do it, which is costly. I'm not sure, but I read something somewhere about that. I understand how much you want a house, but as I said, someone is trying to send you a message. I do wish you the best and do hope you get your dream home. Sending you lots of love.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Such a hard time!! Thank you! 💕💕💕💕
In reality this is normal, but she need to keep on pushing.
Sometimes, you gotta lose to Win!!! Go for something fresh and new. That way you won't have to deal with other people's problem. Right now these sellers are putting lipstick on a pig because of how the economy is now. Whatever you decide, I wish you BLESSINGS🙏🏽
I never realized how hard buying a house really is until I bought mine. I don't wish that process on anyone but I do hope you find your forever home because as hard as it is to go through, it's worth it in the end.
Right!! Thank you 😊
The first time you get to sleep in a house that is yours is the best night ever.. even if you're like me and was too excited to sleep 😂
But you'll get it, just take your time and don't rush
It’s only hard if you don’t have any money, now that I believe.
Sometimes we want something so bad that we're willing to overlook how it may affect us in the longterm. It's like loving the idea of being married but picking the wrong partner simply because we're so in love with the idea of the wedding and saying we're married. Buying a home is just as crucial. It feels really good in the beginning but that feeling quickly deteriorates when you haven't made the best choices. Having to wait for things we want so badly seems like the most heartwrenching thing ever but patience is a virtue. Please think everything over thoroughly. You may find that the sellers not being honest about everything and being so difficult is a blessing not a curse. And, I'd also have to agree with some of the others regarding your realtor. You want a realtor who has some fight in them and can spot these things instantly. A good realtor will point these things out along with costs and challenges from the get go. Their priority should not only be to get you what you want but to protect you as well. I get it that for some it's all about the money but honesty is the best policy all the way around. Good deeds come with great rewards.
I would be very suspect of a seller who wouldn't have the lead based paint test done because 1. it is the right thing to do and 2. it is only on average $300-$500. I have a feeling they know it is lead based and the removal of that can cost anywhere from $6k-$10k depending on size of home. If it were me...I would let them terminate so you get your earnest money back. I think this is God's way of letting you know that this is not the home for you, but I have faith you will find the perfect home...very soon :)
Thank you!!
YESSSS!!!! Everything that Jasix said! Yup ... walk awayyyyyyyyyy (cue that Elvis song!)
I bought a new house for $159k in 2017. Put $1000 earnest money down, no down payment required, and closed 1 month later. Since then, I've had to repair a pipe and replace a portion of my roof due to contractor errors that were not caught during inspection. Smh Be careful buying these older homes and don't force what's not working naturally. If it's for you, it won't take long or require a battle or settling for a ton of repairs. You're so nice. Your house is coming and you'll love it 😁🤗
How much were your closing costs? That’s my price range.... I’m just worried about overly priced closing costs.
Thank you!
It seems that house has issues that are known to the seller and they don't want to pay. I saw in a reply that you are worried about losing your assistance. There has to be a way for you to keep it. If it means letting them terminate, then let them do it. It' too many red flags. It may be God telling you to sit still and it's not your time just yet. A house is a big purchase, please don't buy based off emotion and end up stuck with something that's a money pit.
‼️‼️‼️‼️
Yes! Extactly
Yes Tiki I agree, Kayla DON'T do it !!!!!
God doesn't have anything to do with real estate. It is who will be kind enough to you to give you a break. Kayla seems like such a sweet person and people in this market/industry will take advantage that. I was where she is and the frustration of it all is why I am building my own home. Lead test swabs are like $11 at Home Depot. When buying a house treat it like you're dating a man. You want to know the past, present and what can he do for you in the future. Your emotions can help you make smart decisions as well. Happiness is not supposed to hurt.
@@LeeHanHart God is in everything. Clearly, you have some issues and some hate in your heart. Bless your heart.
I'm a single woman and bought my home last year. There is a lot to being a homeowner. Everything falls on you and just about everything cost money unless you do it yourself. If I were you, I would look for something more modern. I know even modern homes have issues, but I would pass on the older homes. Just a suggestion. Blessing to you on your journey.
Congrats to you!! 💕💕
Everything happens for a reason keep that in mind..& ..they should be welling 2 take it off the purchase price if you willing to take care of it..
My heart really goes out to you, but those sellers are being rotten. They have to scrape and repaint regardless of who is buying. They want to take advantage of you. Lead paint isn't a joke it's very dangerous and they wanna relist to go around and "fix" but really they wanna cut corners and cover it up..
Walk away. This isn't your house. I'm really sorry love. Don't pay for these repairs.
Thank you for watching!! 💕
I'm literally getting mad rn. I have followed you since the beginning and I hope and pray you find your dream home gurl. Like literally imma need ppl to quit playing wit my girls emotions rn. I'm praying for you sis.
Thank you sis!! 💕💕💕
Girl, I am also going thought the buying process in Atlanta and it’s has been a struggle trying to find a decent home in a decent area for $130k. I thought I found one, I got all the way to the end, where it was time for the final inspection and none of the repairs were at my expectation. At this point I already invested $2000 into this home for inspections, appraisals and earnest money. So, I went to god and I prayed about it, I cried, it kept me up and at the end of the day something did not sit right in my heart, so I asked my family for advice. They said, “buying a house shouldn’t be forced, this is a milestone for you, it shouldn’t feel like you is about to make a big mistake and and if it keeps you awake at night, then that is a sign.” Then they said “you are better off losing $2000 than $130k.” At that point I knew the right path for me. I am back looking for a house, it is an emotional roller coaster but I know I made the right decision, so listen to what your heart is telling you. Hopefully, you make the right decision for yourself. Good Luck
Hello Beautiful, I am praying for you. I understand completely what you are going through. I too am in the process of purchasing a home with the Georgia Dream. I barely made the deadline Aug 31. Just had my appraisal the seller agreed to make repairs. Mines is a older home also. God will see us through. Stay strong and Encouraged. Much ❤️❤️ new subscriber
Aww thank you for subbing! & congrats on the house!!
I’m so sorry you are having a hard time with the home purchase process. I know this has to hurt being the second time being let down. Just remember what’s for you will be for you. If this house is meant to be everything will work out. Praying for you sis!
It hurts a lot!! Thank you so much!! 🥰🙏🏾
It happens to the best of us.
Lead based paint is nothing to play with. I'm praying that you and the seller can come to an agreement and you still get your home. Peace and Blessings ❤🦋
Thank you! 💕💕💕
I never commented but I have been watching your journey for buying a home as well as GlamorousWallflower while being in the process of buying a home myself. It's crazy how similar our situations have been but mine being an underground oil tank that was probably leaking and the seller being unwilling to do anything about it with my first contract.
Buying a home is very stressful and I understand exactly what your going through. The only advice I can give you is to keep praying and stay positive even when it gets difficult and its hard to see your way. That's what I have been doing and so far things are starting to look up with my second contracted home. When something is for you, nothing can get in your way of receiving it. Don't give up.
Thank you!!! 💕💕💕💕
Have you ever thought about maybe it's a sign from god. That this is not the right time to buy a home. Don't settle just to have a home. Take a break from home buying. Don't put anymoney on a house that's not yours. Its there responsible if they want to sell
Loads of comments here about what you should do etc. I'd say do what feels right for you. I'm in the house buying process as well so can relate to the unpredictability of the whole process. Wishing you all the best 👍
Thank you 💕💕💕
I will move on from the house because there is more hidden problems in that house besides lead paint and a paint job I’ll move on
Amen to that,She will never know until if she moves in..Young lady, better safe than sorry!!;"It's not by your will,but His Spirit,his Leading," That's what get people in trouble!!!! "leading ur own Feeling"!!!When you pray and ask God to Guide you All the way,You must have the DISCERNMENT,what to do!!; GLORY unto GOD.(LETS PRAY:Order her Footsteps My God,Guide her with your eyes,Show her the way,in Which you want Her to Go,We thank You for the Victory,we give this request unto you my Redeemer,Amen!!!!
Hey Kayla ✋🏻
I live in GA too and my fiancé and I closed on our house two weeks ago. I’m telling you I understand your pain and frustration. In GA the interests rates are so low homes are going fast so I definitely know what it’s like to start designing and buying things and this drama comes up. Keep this in mind though sometimes things happen for a reason and it is up to us to recognize them as a sign. Just listening to this conversation with the realtor got me sick to my stomach. The sellers clearly want the most profit with minimal effort. In my opinion it’s a bad sign. Remember you don’t want that 30 year mortgage on a bad house lol. Be patient with yourself the right one will come just takes time and a lot of looking at Zillow lol. Take Care I’m rooting for you to get your dream home ❤️
Thank you so so much!! 💕💕
& congrats to you & your fiancé!!
😕 we missed out on our first choice house because it also had issues. It was a very old farmhouse and the sellers would not spend a dime to help fix and sell it to us. It was upsetting. Just don’t force anything, or over extend yourself to make it happen. The right home will happen effortlessly. The house we did buy, everything just happened effortlessly. Thinking of you girl and sending all the positive vibes your way.
First of all, can we talk about how beautiful ur skin is!? Queen, what’s the tea?! Lol 🤔😂 Video maybe?
Aww thank you!!
I’ll find a way to work that in somehow!
Perhaps a mini morning routine?? 💪🏾
Young Lady Business Yessss honeyyy!
Young Lady Business yes please!
I too Kayla am sorry that your house buying experience has been so stressful. I really don't know what to suggest as I didn't have as many issues when buying my homes. Don't settle if you must walk away do it now then get in and find out you purchased a money pit. Keep your head up lil sis .
JamesB02 thank you! 💕
It would make more sense to pay to see if it was lead based. Also, if they terminate I would be requesting reimbursement for all my expenses.
re. reimbursement - get it in WRITING - in letter form. Not via email!
Your face on the call regarding cancelling the contract broke my heart! Don’t worry love! Everything will work out the way it’s supposed to ❤️ I’m praying for the best!
Aww thank you so much!! 🥰🥰
I really hope that everything works out with this property! You certainly handled that conversation a lot more composed than I would have. It seems like you’re taking the punches as they come. Kudos to you. 💗
Aww thank you lol 💕
DONT give up be more aggressive they make it so difficult for you because you seem so sweet but sometimes you need to be tough .. make it work and don’t give up .. wish you luck and best wishes for you . Because you can’t just be ok with it when deep down you don’t feel it’s ok
Thank you!! 💕💕💕
Super early haven’t even finished the vid but what the heck?! 😱
Yessss!! Thanks girl!! 🥰🥰🥰
EXACTLY!! I’m mad as heck already!!
Me too. At stopped at 22min and had to reply. I was especially mad at the realtor for not advising this young to let them put it back on the market. Let me finish the video. Hopefully it ends on a positive note 🙏🏾
Hang in there little sis (in my head). Purchasing a home is the most stressful thing ever, but this too shall pass. You will be decorating your beautiful new home soon🙏🏽
Aww thank you so much!! 🥰🥰🥰
Your house is out there! Be patient and wait for Gods timing. 💕
Thank you!! I will 💕💕
Awwwww I have a commercial building that needed the lead paint scraped and repainted. My environmental inspection stressed me out to the max but in the end we found someone, got the work done, and moved my business into the location. Praying it all works out for you just as easy as it did for me ❤
Just finished watching the whole vlog and wow how busy is the devil don’t get discouraged keep your faith in prayer and all will work itself out!
I would suggest getting an inside/outside spray before moving in.
I am so excited for this house to home series😊😊😊speaking it into existence 🙏🏽
Awww thank you!! I hope it will be able to continue!!!
Hi...this is heartbreaking but know that everyone on here is in this with you and coming with advice that is from the heart. I agree with everyone when they say slow down. When red flags pop up, they are for a reason. Don’t try to add more on to your plate because the sellers don’t want to pay. Through it all, you are jumping hoops and cleaning up stuff that wasn’t and legally still isn’t yours. Don’t force a house to fit if it isn’t fitting. The right house will be a smooth transaction with people who are willing to do right by you.
This is crazy, praying that everything works out for you. 🙏❤
Thank you! 💕💕
When you vlog blur out the streets, its some crazy ass ppl out here. Everything will work out in the end. You are blessed😀
Nycole Greer that’s true!! Idk how but I will learn lol
This is a sign! Please walk away from this deal. Especially if you intend to have children because lead is bad for them. I wouldn’t pay for one thing on a house that I haven’t closed on yet.
Hey Kayla, I could see the disappointment in your face. I know the feeling. Trust that everything will be alright. Everyone is pretty much saying the same thing. I always encourage getting a home built. It's less of a headache. Some builders will pay your closing cost and you will only pay the down payment. I will be praying for you!
Although it may seem frustrating right now finding a new home, what is meant to be is meant to be. God has a plan. The owner has to take care of that and pay for it, my dad had to pay for the fixes of his house from the inspection prior to it being sold. Good luck girlie and stay positive!
Thank you!! 💕💕
OMG.... I just feel apart watching this vlog. Watching this reminded me of when I was purchasing my home. My dad was helping my husband and I because he use to build houses. The process was so draining especially because I was pregnant at the beginning of the process and went into premature labor 3 months early and then my dad pass away 7 months after me giving birth. I was a wreck and didn't want to do it anymore but shortly before our son turned one we decided to do a new build in a subdivision close to where I worked and closed 6 month later. Once we are here for another couple of years we will sale or rent and get our forever home. I said all of that just to say the journey seem so long and trying but so many options come your way in the lesson of learning it. I hope the process starts to get easier for you. Love ya girl!
Obtaining things in life isn't always easy. Looks like you are attached to this home and If you truly love the house, you may have to pay for that if the sellers don't. If they put it back on the market, it has to be disclosed so they can't get around it if they don't fix the problem. I'm so sorry you have to go through this. It will all work out and you will be doing a video soon of your closing on whatever home you choose. Oh and you did a great job of vlogging.
My heart really hurts for you I sincerely hope that everything works out and I know that you love older homes but they come with a lot of headaches. Praying for you 🙏 ❤
Keep your head up girl! Remember if it’s meant to be it’ll happen! ❤️
Thank you!! I will 🥰🥰
I was looking at the comments and negotiations happens all the way up to closing. This is housebuying. My mom an aunt were househunting many years ago. They paid for a bathroom renovation and during inspection and appraisal process problems with the foundation were revealed. Due to cost of repairs, they decided to exit the deal. Young Lady you must decided if you can handle this cost. Asks ?s attempt negotiating because it is a part of house buying that not shown. When using certain funds houses must meet all funding guidelines. You can do it. Perfect homes come at a high cost. What will be best for you? One of your elder rooting for you!!!!
Thank you!!! 🥰🥰
Praying for you. I know you say it hurts a lot, but it will hurt even more if you buy the house and it turns out to be a money pit and you're stuck in in it. Be patient, trust God and wait to see what He tells you to do. It's His desire for you to have the BEST.
Goody 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Ready to be updated.. commenting before watching. I'll be back... after watching. Glad for this video
Kayla, we just went through the buying process and it was rough!!! A little advice, DO NOT pay for things that you’re not responsible for. They can’t sell the house to anyone without correcting the lead based paint issue. So they sill have to pay for it one way or the other.
Daisy McClure that’s true!! Thank you!!
I sad that you are sad about the process... however I believe it is gonna work in your favor, whether you walk away and find something better or the seller will pay for everything!!! I’m rooting for you and hoping for the best in your house buying journey!!!
Yvette Revils thank you!! 💕💕
Omg! Im so sorry that you have gone through such a rollercoaster of a ride trying to purchase a home! You have been so patient and kept a positive attitude through it all!
Omg! Yes!! It’s been tough 😊
Girlll!!!! Like in a previous comment, if you're getting a fixer upper or older home you'll have to finance the fixings or wait a while to save and pay out of pocket. Or you should try a newer home or have one built. In my case for example, I got my older home dirt cheap, so cheap that I don't mind fixing things although it was well kept, this works for me because I have some home repair resources. Keep looking and I know you have thought it out thoroughly, but think it out again. I'm sad to say but don't go on emotion, go on value, resale value and rental value even.
I’m so sorry for you! We’re closing on a home and have hit a few snags ourselves as well but we’re almost there. I think it’s too late to change stuff, but your realtor should ask if you can at least split the scraping costs. They can’t sell their home without doing it. If it came up on your appraisal it will come up on the next potential buyer’s appraisal. Eveything is negotiable! Is your seller making a contribution to your closing costs? If they are you can negotiate those numbers as well.
Thank you!! They are not willing to pay any more money towards what the appraiser has requested 😩
No, they aren’t paying closing costs ! I will keep that in mind! Thank you!! 💕
Actually I believe the sellers can get away with not making these repairs if the accept cash only offers where the buyer doesn’t have to go through a lender for a mortgage...
@@MamacitaNaturalyou may be correct
MamacitaApplebum that’s true. But they’re taking a chance letting go of a deal and waiting for someone with $130K in their pocket
Young Lady Business that sucks. Maybe there’s other things you can negotiate on, like appliances, window treatments? I don’t what state/city you’re from and how the market is where you’re at, and your probably already emotionally invested in this home, but maybe you can look around for something else. Negotiate to get your earnest money back and the money you spent out of pocket, like the appraisal and your home inspection.
You are so calm. I was crying 😭 on the road to buying a home. All turned out well but stressful.
Ha i do the same with online shopping. Add everything then delete
Listen I’m in the process and I prob cry like every week now and the home is fine it’s the underwriter
I don’t mess with roaches either.
Right!! Sameeeeeee!! I was so disgusted 🤢
Yep. 🤣🤣🤣i scream 😱
AT ALLLLLLL
It would be so difficult getting rid of them. My aunt had to to the tent over her house twice to get rid of them. Once they're in the woodwork it becomes a big mess. That alone would make me want to walk away immediately.
Keep pushing God have a better plan...I’ve had 3 rental properties under contract so far still not but I will find my first property in Jesus name.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Oh my gosh girl! This is nuts! I hope everything works out for you! ❤️ thank you for sharing your journey, I’ll be looking into buying a home next year so this is all very helpful!
Right!! It’s crazy! Thank you so much!! 💕💕💕
For as stressful as this video got, I really enjoyed watching you :) Thank you for sharing this journey with us, and being authentic and genuine about the process. I am learning so much from your videos. I know it will all work out for you. I cannot wait for the next vlog.
I'm stressed just listened. That's too much. God will bless you
I know this is a frustrating situation for you, but if this deal falls through, I'd like to gently recommend that you reconsider looking for a true fixer-upper (at least at the level this house is) and find something that needs a less work. FHA and other government home loan programs do not mess around when it comes to their checklist of items to get your funding released to you. I obviously don't know what the back story on this house is, but it appears to have been empty and/or neglected for a long period of time (maybe elderly people in the house who couldn't afford/do repairs?). I have the feeling the sellers may be talking terminating the contract because they want a full cash offer from a house-flipper to get it off their hands or they're hoping they can snag a conventional loan buyer. How long has the house been on the market? If it's been a while, and the flippers didn't even want to make an offer, that's a telling sign to cut your losses. As for the lead paint, please please please don't listen to the folks in comments who are telling you to just scrape it yourself until you know for sure (and have a printed report) that the paint is not lead-based. Judging by the age of the house and its deteriorated state, it likely does have lead-based exterior paint. That requires respirators and specialized vacuums, to the point that it looks like a hazmat crew. It was neglected for a long period of time (I'd suggest you find out the date it was last on the market. Zillow can provide you that info for free). Also, please don't just have them put paint over the peeling paint without a test. People may say I'm a Debbie Downer, but I am an experienced homebuyer with FHA who bought a house built in the early 1960s. I've been in your shoes. Your house is out there.
Thank you for this comment!! 💕💕💕
Too much going on with this house!!! Something just doesn't feel right w/ the owner. Never heard of a company WAIT until closing to get paid for their services. Good luck🤞
Thank you!!
I loveeee this type of blogs girl!!!! Love you're video's I'm also learning because eventually I want to buy a house lol it's soo stressful. keep usss updates pls love it.
awww yay!! So happy!! I will 💕💕
Don’t be sad. If it is meant to be it’ll all work out. I don’t like the fact that the sellers possibly knew already and were trying to still sell the house knowing it could possibly come up. They should have already gotten a quote for the work once they found out about the appraisal so that it could’ve been discussed and handled. And definitely get your own quote for the work as well. Some people might try to find a place that is super expensive for no reason.
That’s true!! Thank you sooo much! 💕💕💕
This was sort of hard to watch because it reminded me of myself when I was younger...wanting the house so badly because I was already both attached and invested into it emotionally. I'm glad you put this out there for all your subscribers and others to see- both experienced and non-experienced homebuyers. It's tough when you've got different perspectives and opinions coming at you left and right. Because I'm more mature and I've got more life experience now, it's nothing for me to give someone as young as you advice on how you should approach this situation. A home is definitely a significant life experience that can either make or break you financially. All I will say is this to you....you won't learn life's lessons until you actually go through it. It's definitely your choice to either listen to wisdom or take the risk. Naturally, as human beings when we desire something, our eyes widen and we want it with URGENCY lol...we want that instant gratification. Ladybug it's TOUGH to back down from something you've made your mind up/set your heart on. I understand it and I could feel your frustration and emotion on that phone call. Pray and meditate on this if you hadn't already. Be intentional with every move & decision that you make. What are your intentions if you decide to go through with the purchase? Will this starter home be an investment property- with the intention of you selling/renting it down the road and making a profit? Ask yourself if you're doing this because you're in love with the idea of being a homeowner. The idea of homeownership is sometimes romanticized...until reality kicks in. Only you can live your life for yourself and you know what's best for you. My mother's advice to me was "be a knucklehead to your own missteps" lol I'm not sure if that's exactly how she worded it! But life is definitely the best teacher! Good luck doll!
Dont feel so down...Move on from this house , its not worth it.
You will find another home you like.
You shouldn't have to pay for removing the lead based paint.
Its the sellers responsibility.
Remember after its scraped lead will be in the air....
Speak with a Real Estate Attorney...Seller is unreasonable.
Dont buy it if you can , move on...get legal advice.
I know this has gotta be so hard for you because you've already come out of pocket on the appraisal and inspection and those aren't cheap. In the state I live, you can't get your money back on that. I don't know if it's the same where you are. Dang.... I'm feeling hard for you, girl. Can't wait to see what happens. Good vibes being sent your way!
Same here!! I cannot get my money back for those!! Thank you !! 💕💕💕
Omg it’s just so unreal how we’re going down this journey together. My inspection report just came back. Seller is willing to fix everything minor thing but the plumbing. There’s a belly in one of the pips that cost 5000 to fix. He want to give me a 2000 credit. No Sr. I need a whole credit or it needs to be fix. Keep your head up girl. At the end of the day. All things are going to work in your favor. But don’t settle for less.
Aww thank you so much!! 😊😊😊
I appreciate it! 🥰
Love the weekly vlog! Can't wait for more! Hopefully everything will work out with the house! Seems like such a stressful process. Stay strong!😇🙏🙏
Thank you!!
Oh no! The sellers don't seem to understand that THEIR HOUSE IS UNSELLABLE TO ANYONE without scraping and painting if there is lead paint! They can cancel the contract with you, but they are still going to have take care of the paint situation before they can sell to anyone else. Many years ago, Home Depot or Lowes used to sell a little tool that you would press against crackled/alligatored paint. If lead was present, the tip would change color. The sellers would be foolish to lose you, a qualified buyer, over something like this. My hope is they will calm down and do the right thing, and you will get your house.
Unfortunately it's a sellers market right now. Buyers are at their will smh
Her loan program is going to get a copy of that appraisal. They won't accept a cheap little tool as proof that there is/isn't lead paint. She will need an actual test done so that she could provide proof one way or another to FHA (or whatever program her home will be financed through).
I'll also say that I think I know what these sellers are wanting. They really want someone to come in with cash to buy the home in as-is condition and get it off their hands. They're hoping they'll get a house-flipper. I have no idea how long this house was on the market, but if it's been out for a while, there's a reason the house-flippers wouldn't take it on. And I've seen some total disaster houses get flipped.
When will you ever catch a break , I’m so sorry the home buying process is going horrible for the second time . But I mean these are the issues that come with older homes unfortunately. I really hope you find your dream home with sellers that are more forgiving & honest. You’re just the sweetest person and deserve so much better ! 💕
I’m sorry to see you in stressful. I bought doublewide smooth no problem will closing on Wednesday less 3 weeks with no problem. That’s why I won’t buy any old house always problem and stressing more than manufacturing home in my options. Good luck!
Aww!! So happy for you!! 💕💕💕
Just because a home is new, doesn't mean it won't have problems. Homes aren't built like they were 60+ years ago. Even if she has to repair stuff, it's better quality than the crap they use to churn out houses so quickly nowadays. Hope yours is good though!
If this is the house that you want... don't give up on it. This process is hard no matter what house you purchase. This is the farthest you have come in this whole house hunting journey and this house came through right before your assistance expired that you worked hard to earn. This will all work out... I definitely wouldn't miss my opportunity to own my house because of some paint. If you dont get it... someone else will ...just like all of the other properties that you got out bid on that you loved so much. I'm praying for you. I just want you to be happy .. God knows that you deserve that. He will take care of you in this house. He brought you to it ... he will see you through it. Love and blessing to you sweetheart 😍❤😍❤
Loved this type of video by the way.👍🏽😍❤
the silverware looks like older polished silver. You got me thinking I want it too.
Yesss!! It’s so cute!! 💕💕
Kayla, just a heads up. It isn’t simply scraping. But bc it’s lead based , it’s hazardous material, therefore scraping and disposing are done by experts and it has to be disposed as hazardous material. This is expensive and dangerous.. I wouldn’t pay for it and if they aren’t willing, I’d walk away from this
Walk away doll. The house was neglected. Don't do any conventional loan either, Fixed loan Only! Stay Encouraged.
A conventional loan can be a fixed rate. They suggested going Conventional to possibly avoid the lead-based paint situation which will still be an issue with a conventional loan.
@@pattiduke8138 thank you for the info doll.
I’m in the process of purchasing a home and in my state if a house is built before a certain year, you sign lead documentation. If there is chipped paint then it’s most likely contains lead, especially around windows.
The life of Abeje thanks for sharing !!
let them ca ncel..... it lead in the walls to....that what they did back then....... I love older houses too but its more work then u think
Ugh..so sorry that you're having this issue..I agree with the comments of passing on this home even with losing the $$ ..you're now aware of lead paint and home built before a certain year..I'm in S Florida and let me tell you it has Not been easy...between not having reserves (condos/townhouses) and the pipes needing to be replaced if constructed before a certain year, I have wanted to pull mine and someone else's hair out LoL no LoL...needless to say I have backed out offers because of both of these issues and the fact that it was brought to my attention days before closing...and Yes I inquired about the reserves once I was made aware of the impact it would have on the purchase...nothing like not disclosing all of the pertinent information...Well good luck sis I know you'll make the right decision for you and then you'll vlog it...did chased what I did there 😉
Thank you so much!! 🥰
Walk away! God has a plan just trust in him.
Amen!
I really enjoyed the vlog! But roaches, bugs, anything is a hard no for me 😭 don’t give up on the house!! You’re so resilient and God is going to bless you with a home beyond your measure!! ✨
Thank you!! 🥰🥰🥰
I'm my state we have to have smoke detector in every bedroom. If they terminate the contract do they pay you for that. Since they are breaking it.
Really? Oh okay. That’s good to know!! 💕💕
If they terminate the contract, will Kayla get her inspection and appraisal costs reimbursed to her, in addition to her earnest money?
S. Parker probably not, it depends on the contract guidelines plus if she put down earnest money.
@@Twofrogs2 from the homebuyers class I took, she will not get the cost of the inspection which makes sense to me because if you spend $300 for example on an inspection and the inspector come back with a list of items you can walk away from the home and that $300 is money well spent. Bottom line, I would be happy to spend $300 versus $200,000 on a money pit.
Hi there 👋🏾 I purchased my home 2 years ago, but during my buying process 3 homes fell through. I cried so many tears, but I never gave up. When you run into many problems, that means it may not be the one for you...but you will find the one for you. I promise! Good luck 😉
I WAS JUST WATCHING YOUR LAST 2 VIDEOS AND WONDERING WHY YOU HAVEN'T POSTED IN A MI UTE 😊 perfect timing!!!
Yay!! Thank you for watching 🥰🥰
Praying everything work out for you. I know this process is super stressful but keep the faith and remember it will all be worth it in the end.
Yes!! It sure will !!! 🙌🏾🙏🏾💕
I'm in GA. I had someone want to back out. I was told it's illegal for a seller to terminate a contract. We closed but it was stressful.
Wait... really?? I didn’t know that.
I’m gonna ask my realtor!
I’m happy you were able to close but sorry that it was stressful!
Ask a lawyer also
There has to be certain clauses within the contract for them to be able to do so
@@LTDispatch . omg. Yes. I wish u had a RUclips channel. So many people getting taken advantage of. She never states what state she is in
Isn't Young Lady Business in GA?
I am in Atlanta and on the hunt for a house as well and it can be stressful, but what people are saying right now is true. This may be a blessing in disguise and with everything going on. There will be something for you, if they don’t want to fix it! Don’t worry ❤️
Why doesn’t the seller offer you a credit? Get the credit and use that to pay for all the work.
It might be a contingency for the type of loan she is getting. The sellers should really just sell to a wholesaler or a cash-only buyer who is willing to waive the inspection. That's a lot of work to expect a seller of a low-end house to do. If they had the money to fix it up they probably would have.
Please, please please require them to do what the appraiser is REQUESTING! I had a similar situation and they nine time out of ten know it’s lead based. Also check the law and see if it is possible for the to terminate the agreement. Wishing you the best!!
