This video is part one of two summarizing the renovation on a 9,000 house so far. I've been working on it for a long time and thought it a good idea to do an all in one at this point to draw in new viewers as well as remind others where we started. I have also been wanting to do a major Q&A from all the comments over the years so I combined them into this video. Ask your questions and I'll answer the rest in the next video. Thanks.

75th and
Lovely to know everyone on the mend, and so appreciative and respectful. Love your work from NIreland 🇬🇧😆
What's wrong with being naturally nocturnal? It's not like you're punching a time clock. The right time to do something when you're working for yourself is whenever you WANT to. There's no right or wrong time, as long as you can safely get it done, and you aren't trying to deprive yourself of sleep just because you think you gotta be up at "X"am because everyone ELSE is.
Take it from another, (much) OLDER nocturnal person, there's NO reason to conform to what "THEY" think. As long as you're considerate, you do YOU. (Just don't expect THEM to be considerate of YOU, that's NOT gonna happen! 🙄🤷)
My all-time favorite little scene from this renovation is when a hand holding a sledgehammer comes down from a hole in the ceiling to give that block of concrete "Just one more whack!" Love it!
Yes!!!
For me it was the sped-up footage of him horizontal between the wall and the block, pushing with his whole body 🤣
@@Margar02 Same! 🤣
When I saw the length of this video, I didn’t think it was possible, but I watched it all. Two of my three kids did too. I am just a couple years older than you with three kids and we have gained a lot of entertainment value over the years watching you and I have often pointed to you as a role model for myself and for my children. Thanks for your positive, family friendly content.
Knowing where the house is currently it’s hard to remember how rough it was. You’ve done an amazing job. Dedication and lots of hard work.
I am recuperating from a broken leg and this is just the kind of content that I need to get me through these boring days! Keep up the good work!
That is rough, I had a handful of reasons for making this video, I was reviewing old videos and how I edited them, wanted to do a video to draw in new viewers, wanted to do a reminder of how rough the house was but I was also sick recently and have not worked on the house in almost 2 months. Being sick was rough, I was down and could not do anything and thought I was done for but once I was able to sit up, the boredom set in and while I'll take bored over nausea, I also enjoyed many long RUclips videos and movies. I'm glad to be contributing to your amusement. Get well and be careful.
@@homemadehome5575 - You are motivated, hardworking and a gentleman. Respect.
Ditto .... double break on Fibula. Just started watching this vid but have followed the whole renovation from the start. Heal well and fast. I'm at 5 weeks a d back in the gym and motorcycling.
@@Jasfras1 - Thank you, I wish you well too.
@@homemadehome5575 Sorry to hear you were ill, hope you're mending well and eager to get back to normal. Hope you other gentlemen are also repairing those breaks fast. I'm very behind with the watching and work too, because my husband needed a new heart valve back in January and I never even got to put away our Xmas trees, so they're staying in their corners till after this year's Xmas is past. Thank goodness for creators like our young fellow for sharing with us. Recent life would have been unbearable without the respite watching provided. Take care everyone who has been suffering from illness or injury, be safe and get well soon.
It’s been a wonderful ride these past three years, getting to follow the incredible amount of solo work you’ve done on this house. It hardly feels like three years either, though I don’t know if that’s due to the infrequency of videos or if it’s just so interesting that it doesn’t matter. Either way, I know there are a bunch of us here who will celebrate your triumph over the concrete post for years to come 😂
Im watching this channel because 2 years ago i bought my first house, not for business but just to make it my home and i needed to steal some ideas and know how from someone. Now I just watch your videos because I think you are relatable dude, even more so than you allow yourself to demonstrate. Thumbs up, keep going.
Your a good young man your parents must be so proud of you. You work hard and give your family a good standard of living, your children see how hard daddy works will teach them good work ethics. Doing up these houses and renting them giving people somewhere decent to live. Love watching all that you do.
There are so many things you say that resonate with me. "If I need more money, I just go out and make more money". Makes me miss your other channel about real estate investing.
I absolutely enjoy each one of your videos. Appreciate all the time you put into sharing.
“I’m using a $2 tripod that I got from Goodwill”. That is why I love this channel! haha
I love all the nature sounds. Who doesn’t? Thanks for the update.
Been watching you for many years. Helped push us to get some land and build a house. We broke ground last week. Building it all ourselves.
I skipped the house clips and went straight to the talky part, lol.
Three years. Wow. I had no idea how long I’ve been watching but still enthralled by each update 👍😊
I stayed for the entire video. I appreciate the talking you do in your videos. There's substance and value to what you talk about. Whether you like it or not, you're an influencer, and I'd say you're doing a good job with it.
I’m always amazed how much work you do, like you say you have a wife and children to support.
I think your moral compass is spot on, so many people think that money is the route to happiness but it’s not the complete package! You have to have joy in your life!
Great choice of renovating music. 3 years! Wow, how time flies. A huge project and a job well done. 👍🏻
I have watched for the last 3.2 years along your journey. GREAT WORK! I still laugh about the chunk of concrete your fought with in the basement
Cynthia that’s so funny
I'd bet that I'm not the only person that would buy a "battle of the block" shirt with solely a picture of a beat down concrete block on it.
My favorite is the $2000. Dollar, built from scratch, house /barn... Love it!
How you saw past all that nastiest is a feat in itself! Bravo 👏🏼 my
Ha, sometimes you get lucky but you go through a lot of blades. Circular saw blades can take a few hits and sawzall blades can handle more but neither can handle square cut nails which old houses are full of. When you hit them it just breaks the carbide off circular blades and stops everything else.
ditto. i've been watching from the beginning but forgot just how bad it was (or maybe he didn't really show us all 😉) and now i see this and just scream "eeek. no way! walk away, walk away!" hahaha
Aww That little bird was singing his/her heart out. ❤ There was a nest box right behind you in the field. My house is old enough that it is made up of the old timbers. Mine and my neighbor's house are both ballooned framed. The denseness of the wood is unbelievable compared to what we use now. It just is what it is. I like the music you pick.
I totally agree, that lil birdsong is better than any soundtrack and he probably thought it was louder than it was...:)
It's a male mockingbird, he's paying no mind to Dart. He's singing for a mate. This is the same bird that will be singing in the middle of the night. Won't use a birdbox and too big to fit in the bluebird box. Don't think a bluebird would like a box that low near high grass. Maybe a wren or tree swallow.
@33:00 It may be the least important of things in your life, but I for one fully enjoy watching you work on these places, and I have learned a lot about renovations and even just house maintenance, so thank you for doing these videos and working on these houses regardless!
I have watched you renovate a number of houses, and I remember so many surprises in them all. I will say that when you buried "Blocky" in the basement after the long fight, I thought I would never see him again, but in the clip I see you working him over, lol. Great job and a tongue-in-cheek ( whimsical exaggeration) about Blocky, lol.
Glad you’re well now and able to do the things you feel that are driving you.
Putting it all together like this really shows how much work you've put into this place and just how far it has come.
I often wonder while watching the $9,000 house how the neighbors react to that "young man" who "owns everything on the street." Has anyone near your properties caught on to the fact that you own most of the ones in the area and have been renovating them one at a time? Does a neighbor ever stop and ask questions? Have you been asked to do handyman work for them?
He can’t afford to work for anyone other than himself. I’m just saying... his time on task ( own projects) is priceless!
I reallly like your attitude to life. I wish as many young men listened to you as Jordan Petterson. You show how to do thing. Young people will really benefit from it. Love your conversations with us.
10:37 Man vs Concrete pillar has definitely been the best part of this series lol!
There... At the 50 minute mark, when you described your personality... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING THAT! That's me to a T! I honestly thought I was alone or in some deep depression or lazy... Something! But no, it's just a personality trait! You made my life and how I view myself SO much better. Sincerely, thank you.
It’s interesting how personalities can be different. The guilt I feel when I’m not doing what I’m supposed to be doing is eating me alive. I have a lot to do and I’m im sitting here watching this video. I’m never to to feel relaxed about that. I wish I could. I wish I could live like that and just go with the flow and do things when I do the them - like he’s describing how he live his life- and not feel guilty all the time.
@@justmemuchlove8275 I'm the same way, you're not alone. I feel anxious and guilty if I'm not doing what I feel like I need to. I can't sit around all day like a lot of people do, I feel as if I'm wasting my life away.
It's better for me if of all the things I need to do, I do what I feel like doing out of all those things. I'm more productive that way. Does that make sense? I don't like feeling as if I'm pressured to do one specific thing. Sometimes you have to, but your stress levels are greatly reduced by doing what you feel like the rest of the time.
Your battle with the block in the basement was epic! I laughed the whole time. Did you manage to salvage enough to make a difference in your cost?
His tombstone read "This was a little dangerous in hindsight." That nasty basement!!! That pillar! Is that the hardest thing you have done in a house? I am so stinkin proud of you how that basement came out.
Hey! I absolutely love listening to you explain stuff. I listen to your videos while I am sewing quilts for hours! Keep talking!!!
Beginning montage music was perfect, captured the spirit of the super hero work you are putting in on these homes! Really appreciate your straight forward nature brother, these video series have been super inspiring.
Thank you for showing us the beginning. I can't believe it's been 3 years, but the change is magnificent! I had forgotten how nasty it was in the beginning and seeing stumpy again brought a smile to me. See you next ime.
I stumbled upon this series and this channel 3 years ago when I started looking to purchase my first house. I’ve been settled for 2 years and I’m still just as excited when another video comes out
Been here almost from the beginning, I enjoy all the talking, Easter egg humor, and how honest you are. Keep hammering. (Scroaty)
No questions, but I want to say how much I appreciate the fun things you add in for us all… like the battle with the concrete block in the basement and the time you taught us the importance of smashing the staples deep into the Romex when roughing in electrical wires.
Your music choices 😂😂👌 Lol "I think it came from Goodwill", so good to see another video, can't for part two!
Do you ever get people wanting to help?
Do you ever get parents wanting their kids to apprentice with you?
Have you ever found anything dead in a house?
Do you ever get people asking you specifically if you have properties to rent because of your work?
Young man,, you are doing it right by building you and your families future.. The hell with peoples comments,, they are just going no where fast.. You take pride in your work,, your doing it right.. Keep up with the good work...
Just so you know, I really enjoyed how you did part of this video. It was like talking over a campfire after the sun went down. Very nice.
It's great to see you again my friend and WOW...what a great reminder of just how much work you've put into this house. It was a monumental task and despite any challenge, you persevered! l look forward to seeing you pull this one across the line and to see what you have in store for us. Stay safe!
You do NOT talk too much. I learn far more from you talking about your experience than watching a nail gun. Carry on.
I rarely respond but I 've been watching all your video's for the last 4 years. Love your dedication, humor and perfectionism. You forgot the clip where you said; I'm going for a quick renovation, have this house on the market as soon as possible xD
You are a great role model and it’s why I subscribed to you 2 years ago. This world needs more people like you!
You covered so much that I can’t even respond. Just know that I watched every second, because quite honestly I’m interested.
I will touch on one point you made and that is to do what you want to do. Personally I enjoy renovating old houses. Some people like to restore cars, some like to restore gadgets. I’m just into houses…and the payoff is phenomenal.
I enjoyed the monologue believe it or not.
I am watching all of these videos all the way from Norway, I can't buy any cheap houses the way you do, and our regulations are way stricter than what you have in the US, and I am not even very handy. But I still love your videos, they seem very genuine.
You are such an inspiration! Sorry you've been sick, but I hope you'll be back to full strength again soon. Please take care of yourself. Thanks for the video ... I can't believe it's been 3 years! So glad you included footage of the concrete monster in the basement. Hahaha! I don't think you talk too much. :) Peace, love and blessings to you and yours.
Staying positive and kind while responding to haters and critics is a very important business skill. Actually life skill in general, but also it’s good for business.
I have always enjoyed your videos. Remember to just do you and forget what everyone thinks because in the end it’s whatever works for you and your family that matters. Please keep your videos coming. 😊😊
Finally! Someone else who digs the Last of the Mohicans soundtrack.
Me too!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate your approach, both to renovating these houses and to responding to the people commenting on your videos.
"I guess I like flute playing" is the best line of this whole video!! 😂
Hi, I love your channel because it reminds me of my youth. I am seventy-one now and cannot do all the things I want to. I am retiling the bathroom and putting in a walk-in shower because I have difficulty getting in and out of the bath but, I get frustrated at times, the things I want to do but my girlfriend will not let me do. Last year I redid the guttering and replaced the soffits and a few tiles at the back of the house, this year she want let me the front of the house or get up a ladder or work from the scaffold tower because she is frightened, I might have a fall. My son does not help by saying he will do it as I should not be doing things like that, but I am not ready to be plonked in an old chair and given the TV remote to watch hundreds of channels of rubbish and things I do not like. You have been asked how you know what to do, and yet it is easier to find out about anything you are not sure of with the internet and you tube. You keep making your videos and I will keep watching them (in between tiling the bathroom)
I have to say, I learn so much more from your talking than from most other videos I watch. We have been able to begin implementing steps to start the process of investing in rental properties in part due to your insights and all the "talking" you do. THANK YOU for all the talking you do!!
I also am renovating a house by myself to rent out eventually. Right now my wife and I actually live in it. You are an inspiration. Your work ethic pushes me to work later and harder each day. I don’t think people can really appreciate your work ethic if you haven’t actually done any of this work. Thank you.
Conquering "Mt. Concretus" was a memorable and monumental task!
I love listening to you talk. Don't stop.
I loved the recap. Thanks for sharing. I know it’s a lot of work but you’re killing it. Great work.
Great life lessons. I've been following you for more than 3 years. I work much in the same way as you do and people think I'm just crazy doing the things I do. You're right, the best feeling ever is when everything goes wrong and you hang in there and make it work. Wow what a great feeling that is. !!
I've said it before: I would listen to your monthly podcast and pay for it on Patreon. Love your insight and experience. I don't think you're experience is that unique, but your presentation and perspective is rare and valuable. Thank you.
Where do you see your business going? What are you excited about? Can you talk more about your income streams besides RUclips and rental properties? How are you making money with the sawmill? Can you talk about what you're using your design skills on currently?
Thank you for sharing this talk about yourself and what you do, especially for the honesty with which you speak. I think your authenticity is the most valuable. Greetings from Mexico.
36:00 I completely agree. I personally enjoy your videos and it's always a pleasant surprise whenever I see a new video come up. I like that you're taking things slow because I really get a chance to appreciate all the hard work and effort you put into your renovations. I've been subscribed since the $12,000 home. I've been watching since my daughter was a newborn. She turns 3 next week. I really enjoyed the beginning of your video because I recall so many of the clips through past videos. It's come such a long way and no matter what time you finish this project, everything you've already accomplished is something to hang your hat on. Cheers to you Dartanion 🤟
Confidence and self-worth come from accomplishments relative to the individual person. Relative to the person here means dignity. Great wisdom and not a cliché. Never run wisdom into the ground with such words.
I’ve watched every minute of every video since the beginning of the $12,000 house. Guess I’ve got a divot in my couch cushion. Actually I watch you for motivation. I’m on my 3rd year of renovating my own 120 year old house. And I’m sitting on about 1200 video clips or about 600 hours of videos that I will someday edit, maybe. Anyway, keep on doing whatever you’d like and if there’s a video, I’ll watch it.
i love your humbleness..you have a lot to offer..just continue to do what you do
Well i have told you in the past , you are a great inspiration .None of us are who we want to be But we keep doing the right thing. I am 71 , been fighting cancer the past year and half . But i watch your videos and can't wait till you put another out . Most of this video i was familiar with and even the answers to the question ,But sat through and enjoyed the whole thing and now wait for next one . 😀
Boyd, the progress is amazing! I genuinely appreciate the content.
Crazy how being competent and honest is an anomaly these days. Much appreciate the ramblings, they always put things in perspective.
You're awesome. Inspirational therapy!
long videos are fine. Love your work ethic and attitude. Nothing like me, but I approve.
I LOVE your videos, you do NOT talk too much and you provide great information. I enjoy watching all the work you do, your talent knows no limits! People criticizing have too much time on their hands (IMO) Keep doing what you're doing, it's working! Thank you!
You make a lot of sense when you talk, plus you have a hilarious sense of humour. Your likeability is high which, imo, is the reason for your RUclips success. All the best.
An artist buys a house, "....a simple renovation....". A cast of one. Plans were made, mistakes were made. An archeological exploration of insane construction, things carried loads they should not, things supposed to carry loads, did not. Walls were made. Walls were unmade. Heartbreak and Joy. A landscaping truck. Death defying acts of construction. The spiraling of Costs. And of course, we all were fraught with the evil and mysterious "concrete block" ( RIP ).
You're an inspiration. Keep up the good work!
This has been a nice way to catch up on what you’ve been up to the last year or so. I’ve been less active on RUclips in the same timeframe, so this was nice to see. The amount of work you’ve put into this house in comparison to the previous houses is bananas.
Also I want to say that I thoroughly enjoy the length of your videos and the "real-talk" sessions. You don't sugar coat anything or cater to any one type. This is you and how you operate, and I appreciate it. Too much fake news out there among the influencer explosion. It's nice to be able to sit and enjoy content created by someone that is keeping it real all while showing "a way" to do the things you're doing.
Man I’ve been viewing your videos for a while now.
I enjoy watching the projects. Also respect you’re opinion. Thank you!
I’ll always be tuning in🙂
You’re the best!!! Wholesome goodness!!! Great job. Keep shining!!!!
Wow. The most important item I got on rewatching today's jam-packed video is that you now have more than one child. Congratulations.
Still a fan 3 years in now!! Sometimes I fall asleep to the rambling 😂🤣😂 but more often I find motivation in your videos.
Please don’t stop. I think you’re so unique and quirky. I wish I had your confidence. I definitely admire how you just grab the bull by the horns.
48:46 Falling star. I am sure your arranged that! 🌠
That was so cool 👍⭐️
First: Congratulations on your family and success.
Questions: What tools do you use the most for the work you do?
Do you buy them, rent them?
Would you do the same if you were to start again?
Wishing you and yours the best and looking forward to your videos. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing your expertise
I LOVE watching your video's. Thank you for reminding us how much work you have done on this house. It is incredible.
I appreciate your talk...I always learn something new
Love the videos mate. You've really set your family up well, amazing work. Fan from Australia (the nice ones)
Your work ethic combined with your temperament are amazing to observe. What a monumental amount of work went into this house. My favorite picture is you with your shoulder to the big concrete block in the basement and your feet against a wall as you pushed that block. That was a good laugh. Excellent choice of music, btw. Can hardly wait for the next episode.
You seem to be living your best life and know where your priorities are .
Man, since I subscribed to your channel, i've moved from a big big house, bought a smaller one and two departments, that I fixed my self for renting. So Yes, it is possible and feasable. Just turn your mind into production mode. Thank you.
It was Good seeing the Concrete Block again, a true Warrior and a Formidable Foe.
Rest In Pieces (CB) . . . . . . gone but not forgotten.
I'm quick to click on your videos when I get the alert. Watching you work is mesmerizing, and I love hearing your perspective in your Carolina (my guess!) drawl. I chuckled about the working at night comment. Being married to a workaholic myself, I have sometimes wondered if your wife gives you a hard time, although it's none of my business.
Once I commented that his accent was different from word usage, so I think it's an area where the SE and Appalachia meet. I told him my mental map triangle was between St Louis, Louisville, and Norfolk. His response was that he's within 90 miles of one of those cities! We don't actually need to know 😉.
@@joantrotter3005 good assessment. He once mentioned it was a coastal state, so of those three I’d guess Norfolk and he’s in North Carolina. Additionally, he’s a furniture builder with mad skills. That part of the country used to be the furniture capital of the country. I remember as a child driving from town to town with my parents searching for the perfect set of dining chairs. There was a factory in every town. So sad to know that’s all in China now. I bet he’s got family descended from those craftsmen.
Can’t wait to see what comes next ! You could become a life coach -kids in high school should be watching you .
Sir you are an inspiration 😎
Ahh…the memories. 😍
Has it already been 3 years?! Sheesh... You've done an amazing job on this house!
Love the content 🤠 ur a work ethic is admirable 👍
So glad to watch your videos. I have stuck by and watch everyone of them. Love that ya have everything put in your place for the cost of living and not show off like "see what I have" too many have that attitude and act so rich in reality they aren't and are more in debt and some others.
Love your videos keep up the great work
Perseverance for the win! Greetz from The Netherlands
Calling it now. Your next RUclips channel will be “Homestead Philosopher” 😆
Nice to see you again! What you call 'running your mouth', I find wise opinions, fully explained! Thankyou, I really appreciate it all! XXX
gret video. cant believe i wathched the whole thing straight through. very enjoyable! thank you.
