This made me cry. Why are some renters so very toxic? I was raised to take better care of someone else's property than I do my own and my landlords have always appreciated me. You really worked magic on this property.
There's a faction of people who pillage + steal as a way of life. Sometimes, besides stealing priceless artifacts, rugs, etc. from the WH, they steal national documents. The executive is too embarrassed for America to release that particular info. I personally think it should come out in the trial for the felony violations he's admitted in public. The pride of the establishment people in D.C. are afraid full knowledge of how bad he raped our country, would irreversibly damage our nation. It takes years to build an airtight case. ANY PERSON who violates the law, especially endangering our democracy, must be held to account. Thieves are thinking to get money from taking something they don't own. Personal aggrandizement is at the root of every theft.
First time viewer here. I've seen many home renovation shows and this just didn't wow me. I do appreciate that they kept the cabinets and used a lot of materials from his warehouse. That's always nice to see versus smashing everything to bits. However, there were about twice as many decor items than were necessary, which totally overwhelmed the place. I couldn't concentrate on the changes due to the number of pillows and typical chachkis. It's like they couldn't control themselves at Hobby Lobby or something. Lol
I’m known for a love of tchotchkes and decorations but this amount of stuff makes the beautiful home seem smaller than it is. Beautiful floor, wall, and deck treatments, just too much stuff.
@@christienelson1437 The cushions at the fireplace made no sense, ditto all the cushions in the master bedroom, they went halfway down the bed, way too many!!
I love they way they did this while using stuff from guys storeroom. I feel so sorry for people renting out their homes only to get them trashed. I rented out a flat years ago before I sold it. It didn't get trashed , it was just filthy. Good clean and was ready to sell.
I used to be a renter for years and i can't believe how ppl left his house!! Broke my heart for this guy!! How awful. The girls really gave him a wonderful place!!❤
EXACTLY why I got out of rental homes. Every time a renter left, they trashed the house and I was left with renovating. Too expensive and tiring to do that. I totally lost faith in humanity by that point.
This proves that you can do a stylish makeover without throwing money at it. The kitchen cabinetry was perfectly serviceable and although I wouldn't have chosen that colour or the black hardware, keeping them saved a lot of money. Same with the ensuite to the main bedroom. Nicely done and without going over the top because the circumstances did not warrant it.
The window was so perfect!!!! There was no need to make it smaller. The sunlight and the view was so amazing before with all the greenery in their backyard.
Okay here's a question why would you have to pay people to install the floors when the owner of the house is a contractor and could have installed it for free and put that money somewhere else that made zero sense to me
But how much did it sell for? They don't tell you that. Yes, they posted 19h ago, but if it sat before first days, then surely it sold by the time the shoot was edited...
I like white-painted brick, too, but I liked the contrast with the slate color on the bricks and the lighter wall. That color fits in welll with the the hardwood floors and even the bathroom floor.
Painting fireplaces (natural stone) the biggest no-no, all that can be done in the future is change the color. Painting natural wood doors and trim a big no-no, unless it's the last resort from failing shellac finish same with cabinets.
33 days in my town is nothing, there have been properties sitting on the market for years either because no one can afford them or no one can afford to do the work to rehabilitate them. It's very sad. There are so many homes just rotting to the ground in my town.
I don’t understand the start of this video I don’t understand why he’s not doing the work already anyway and that he needed them to tell him as he already had the supplies anyways
The twin sisters and their contractor work amazing together love love the twins they are excellent designers Lindsay and sister seen show one of the crew worker bought house forgot the other L sister's name 🤣😂💗
Huh? It looks like overage/change order items were saved, to use later.... not sold for his profit. Which could explain how they stay on budget and have things on hand, which also saves time. 🤷♀️
Investors don’t normally like to buy houses flipped by someone else. They have their own crews and they lowball the price of these damaged homes. The decor is the reason it looks nice.
OK - a rental so want sturdy rather than high end 'cause renters don't care like an actual owner would. Why would you stage to this degree? Guess adds to the show's drama.
Security deposit covers "cleaning" not destruction. That's what the courts are for... IF.... YOU.....can find them. They get away scot free, but live terrible lives. That's their punishment. Talk to previous landlords. If there "aren't any" don't rent to them. Check ALL references with long conversations, and credit reports. Parents are good for telling the truth about why their kids don't live with them. Renters insurance is for the renters incase the landlord doesn't fix something, not for restoration after destroyers. Definition of "normal wear and tear" is pretty broad. If you wouldn't let them live in your spare bedroom, don't rent to them.
Great advice. Also when they come to have an interview...walk them out and look in their car. If it's clean and tidy that's and indicator. If it's a mess they are a NO.
Huge improvements to this house - great job. But the styling is way, way too much. Just a bunch of stuff thrown in together. Not appealing or even nice.
Wow, the renters stole a lot of things, including the kitchen sink, hood, and stove and even tried to take the bathroom counter? I hope he tracked them down and made them pay
Hi Ladies, I'm so impressed with your work, me myself I'm a senior citizen in Philadelphia, PA and I don't know which way to turn, if it's possible S.O.S, can you let me know if you can make a special allowance help. Ms. E. A. Butler?
Not always, we had to move 2 hours away because of a job, so we rented it to someone who said they wanted to buy it. About a little over a year later they moved out without telling us, the carpets were urine-soaked, and their children carved words into the sheetrock. The toilet wasn't flushing very well, so upon taking out the old one to replace it, we saw why it wouldn't flush very well, there was a small can lid flapping, our guess would be one of their boys tried to flush it. Then they built a sorry-ass looking desk into the master bedroom wall, the wall was ruined when we pulled it out. We will never rent out again. We fixed it up and sold it, we broke even after all the repairs and from what we still owed.
Abd whycthe heck is Jeff keeping leftover items you two sisters paid for????? He is entitled to labor alone, only!!!! He's does excellent work abd fully too.
I lost every bit of respect for these two . when on rock the block , these two targeted Egypt and Mike , when they vandalized the house Egypt and Mike were working on. personally , I suspect racism . yeah , that's right . i think these witches are racists.
@@angelabacker1177 There was a Rock the Block episode , where those stupid twins vandalized the house that Mike and Egypt was working on . Totally despicable .

Looks great. But way too much staging. Pillows on the fireplace? Why???? Too many pillows overall.
True way too busy and overwhelming.💕❤️♥️

I agree,over kill !
I agree-way over-staged! Will not appeal to minimalists.
It is horrible that the renters trashed the house. The transformation is amazing. Well done ladies.
The house is beautiful now. The staging was a bit to much, but it did not detract focus from the house itself.
Definitely too much.
I liked it but it probably didn’t need all that much
Wow! So much was salvaged! Amazing work

I hope those cabinets were scrubbed REALLY good before they were painted!! I feel like the whole house was dirty and needed a good deep clean!
Wow, this is just amazing showing what one can do on a budget.
EXACTLY why I got out of rental homes. Every time a renter left, they trashed the house and I was left with renovating. Too expensive and tiring to do that. I totally lost faith in humanity by that point.
Awesome job!!! LOVE the green cabinets.
I'm so glad they kept the cabinets, too. Everyone's always throwing away perfectly good cabinets.

These 2 do have a flair for it and it obviously works. I just wonder whether the staging is a bit over the top and really necessary. It’s just so busy
Just remember, they know their market and are known for quick sales.
The window was so perfect!!!! There was no need to make it smaller. The sunlight and the view was so amazing before with all the greenery in their backyard.

More proof he's a shady dude
In the full episode his company did the work.
His young guy who managed the job bought the house.
It was really sweet .
@@mimi2the4 , absolutely not. Smh
They get paid per episode so it all balances out.
He was wondering why he didn't sell ?
You can't offer a house like that !
so he is saying his last renter did that damage to his house ? i sure hope he sued them !!!
Look amazing after you finish it ..great job thank you.
This is my first time watching this video. Great job Ladies! Love it.
But how much did it sell for? They don't tell you that. Yes, they posted 19h ago, but if it sat before first days, then surely it sold by the time the shoot was edited...
Looks great. Painting the fireplaces though... The red brick one would have been nice whitewashed and just leave the brown one. Gray is just no.

Awesome. He wants to keep this house.
The twin sisters and their contractor work amazing together love love the twins they are excellent designers Lindsay and sister seen show one of the crew worker bought house forgot the other L sister's name 🤣😂💗
Did that contractor just exposed himself stealing from their previous projects?
Huh? It looks like overage/change order items were saved, to use later.... not sold for his profit. Which could explain how they stay on budget and have things on hand, which also saves time. 🤷♀️
If you watch the show, you would know he wouldn't do that.
Jeff is the contractor a great person it is all in the family 😊💗
Yes he did! Gives all of us contractors a bad rep
@@mimi2the4 hello you need to watch show Jeff is excellent a fantastic contractor and he is the twins' contractor they work together they are family
Please come do my house! I love what you did! Everything is great!
My programs do not show if the homes sell.
How disgusting are people that rip off things from a property?
Love this show! Always great!
I would totally buy items and furniture from you guys.
you painted the hardwood floors - SMH
Living room FAIL!
agree
Great job I think your staging was really perfect. But hey that’s why you are top sellers. You are differently professional.
Amazing job ladies god bless
Divno zaista sve sa ukusom
Espetacular !! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I like the basic updates and some design…but TOO MANY decorations!
🥰🥰 todo quedo muy hermoso !!
I would have never thought that green kitchen cabinets would look that good. Not quite to my taste but they turned out really well.
awesome but too much crap...scale down for crying out loud
Love it!
Isn't there legal recourse regarding the theft & vandalism?
Wow! Super super busy! Too many pillows. Awful living room. Kitchen, bedroom and bath looks great!

That was a good one
This guy is a contractor why didn’t he Reno it
😅 If he did it was not on TV
It's created reality. He could have fixed it up by himself and since he works with the sisters, could have used some of their design ideas, too.
Love this Girls
They are women, not girls.
Way too much
So, what did it sell for?
Come do my house.. it needs lots of work. Just recently bought it and having a hard time finding the right people to do the work.
a good change but to much decor
Should have gone with neutral
Colors don't match
I love those colours ! For me they match !!!! 😀
Olá meninas eu gostou muito do trabalho de vcs 😍

so if the renters technically stole from him can't he just report them
He absolutely can. However, it's more trouble than it's worth--especially since the types of people who destroy rentals have no money.
He should have renters insurance to get reimbursed, plus their security deposit. Hopefully also a bond.
Wow💞🇿🇦
They should have left that big window in the kitchen and not cut it in half. A round table in front would have been beautiful.
Pillows!
The house looks great but green is really not my Color and might detract from some buyers
I could make my house beautiful, if I could just get everything for free. Come on! How does this help anyone? Lucky for him, I guess.
I mean there are ways that you can renovate a house for free, you just have to be OK with, you know, kidnapping and killing people. No biggie.
I would not hire that sneaky contractor again
He is part of their long time team
They were kidding.
Not good staging... I watch these shows all day but this was not my favorite.. pile of pillows
So, did it sell?
Painting the brick...and a super ugly shade of gray at that. Tacky, predictable and a decade late in style. The rubes will eat it up.
I love that color, and there's nothing wrong with me.
I get the feeling he hasn't been the best landlord.
Exactly the comment I was looking for - there's a back story here...

Based on what???
IMO shitty landlords often attract shitty tenants and vice versa.
Average loser rentoid comment
That was pretty ghetto of Leslie to accuse him of over ordering on her dime to stockpile for himself.
Why are they “selling to an investor”? What’s that about?
I thought they mentioned that in that area, many people rent out their houses.
And.... how much did it sell for? Am i the only one who would like to know?
So aparently they rent houses without floors in Netherlands 😅 and no kitchen in Germany

Dining room rug under table way tooooo…small!
that is the ugliest color painted on the cabinets....not worth the cost of labor
I’d rather burn my house to the ground and walk away than trust it with renters. Deposits NEVER cover the destruction. Sad.
Living room is awful
These women take too much profit.
Your contrqctors know better then that. Tge gals shoukd have bought from him and tgen fix and sale. Yoi girls mossed out om that deal
