Another vote for leaving the washer/dryer configuration right where it is. Some folks like the convenience of being able to do the laundry right there at the source, but now you're talking about removing precious storage space to accommodate what's a higher-end feature--again, at the expense of a necessity. And as you yourself have noted, you've already reduced the footprint of the bedroom and cut into the existing closet. Where are the residents going to store their clothes and linens now--in the basement? Bottom line, this is a rental, albeit a much nicer rental than the initial design, but you're not trying to capture the luxury market, just attract stable, non-trashy tenants. Most renters are happy enough to have on-site laundry facilities that they're not going to whine about having to do it in the basement. It beats the c*** out of having to lug sacks of dirty clothes to the washeteria in town, especially in the winter.

leave the W+D in the basement. All of your reasons and explanations support that. It's a lot easier to move them into the basement with that basement access door. it allows people to buy cheaper side-by-side units. ALSO, what you didn't mention is that leaving this lets you leave the linen closet. I think it would be a big negative to lose that linen closet.

It's fine with braided hoses and drain pans even more so since he can do the repairs himself . If damage happens based on the tenants mistake he could actually make a profit off of it in multiple ways. The first is a a term in the least that allows him to keep the deposit , two making them pay the value of the repair and doing it himself , insurance payout to him for the repair value. Water damage isn't hard to repair i renovated a 4 family unit that was flooded in a short amount of time for little money i actually look of these on the market as a value buy.

I say leave the washer & dryer in the basement. Too much extra work & cost. Reduced space upstairs. Having them in the basement isn't a hardship & makes more sense, to me. (disclaimer: I have never renovated or rented out a property)

Keep the Washer/dryer in the basement. Have a nice linen cupboard. Great video. X

Accessible storage space is always a premium in a house like that and a linen closet is more appealing. As long as the area for the washer and dryer is accessible and appealing, it'll probably save you a lot of potential future problems. Flooded concrete in an unfinished basement is much easier to deal with than a flooded second story.

It is better to have more closet space upstairs than a washer and dryer, too much potential liability of leaking. It's a rental. You should not worry about a renter having to go to the basement to wash and dry their clothes. Also, by providing the washer and dryer with the property it makes it easier to rent and to get more rent ($50.00 per month). I have used pre-owned washer and dryers for years with no problem except a minor repair or two.

I’m a property manager, a good 75% of my rentals come with most/all appliances, including a washer and dryer. If the tenants break it, they can pay for the repairs.

Leave the laundry in the basement, less work & money. I think linen closet is more useful upstairs.

The new ceiling height makes such a difference! Love it! While having the laundry on the same floor as the bedrooms is nice, I would leave it in the basement. You explained several good reasons for leaving it down there (and also made me never want to be a landlord). I would also be sad to lose that storage space in the bathroom. I'm buying a house that's larger than my current place but I'm losing my huge utility closet and I'm still not sure how it's all going to work. I'd rather have a laundry room/spot in a larger room than a stackable washer/dryer in a small space. My mom is older and she lives on the second floor of a home. The laundry room that she shares with the first floor tenant is in the basement. It's no problem to go downstairs to do laundry and it also keeps the noise down.

Leave it in the basement. There's more room down there to sort and fold, you get more closet space, you don't have the heat of the dryer in your bathroom, AND you don't have to worry about laundry being done before you can sleep.

Good duct work, keep the closet as is, as a linen closet ,,, otherwise it seems you might end up with major problems in the long run! besides it’s ok hauling laundry to the basement, it’s good exercise! 😉

Is there an option for a laundry chute to the basement? Might be overkill, but would be able to keep the W&D in the basement and still make it a little easier.

My grammas house had one and it was so cool! I bought the house after she died and upgraded a few things. BUT kept the laundry chute. Then my son found out his Legos loved to slide down, and his cars, and blocks and anything but laundry 🤦‍♀️. LOL.

"Lady" viewer perspective: don't do an upstairs washing machine. Yes, it's nice not to have to lug stuff into the basement. It's even nicer not to have to look at a bathroom space and wonder where on earth your towels are supposed to fit. A linen closet in the bathroom means you can forget a towel and don't have to dart through the bedroom, dripping water all over the place, hoping you're not scandalising the neighbors. You already have a tiny bathroom. Taking out the linen closet to force in a washer/dryer combo you can't open without knocking out a window is not worth the lost space. Also, if the washer and dryer are in the basement, renters can put a drying rack next to them. You have the option of a flat surface and elbow room for folding the things you've washed and dried. You can store and use an ironing board in the basement. You have a door leading directly into the basement, with a sink and ten feet of come-at-me-bro cement floor between the outside world and the laundry machine. If you come in from some messy gardening, or out of bad weather, you can go straight through the basement and leave the worst of the muck where it's easiest to clean up.

Without a doubt, keep the washer/dryer in the basement. To me it makes the most sense and it reduces risk of your renters potentially damaging walls moving the units up and down the stairs.

If I had another place, I would definitely prefer the w&d in the basement. Less noise, more living space, linen closet. Good to see you having some help. Thanks for sharing,Sir.

I don’t Supply W/D but I do supply steel braided hoses and require them to use them... And I would never install W/D hook ups upstairs for a rental.

I vote to leave it in the basement, I have a 1940s bungalow and the vibrations from my washer dryer is crazzzzyy lol. If you can find space why not put a laundry chute?

I hate stackables due to they have smaller loads and not that energy efficient besides leak issues as time goes on. Needless to say....keep in basement. Besides that would be a great linen closet as originally thought!!!!

Don't do it. Leave it in the basement. It's a rental. They're not going to take care of it. Think of the water damage.

For a rental- leave it in the basement. Great idea upstairs if its for yourself but like you said- its gonna be a cheap rental so why complicate it and make a potential rod for your own back. Great video - love the channel's 👍

I say put a stackable unit in and charge more for deposit. Also I would add a extra 50$ to rent for providing washer and dryer. I good renter will appreciate it. If they ask why extra cost explain the extra cost of process of plumbing for upstairs washer dryer vrs basement. Treat it like a benefit or perk they are paying for.

This has been a great series! I've been watching for a while and finally decided to subscribe, whenever you upload I look forward to watch your videos!

(I loved that Russian music in the background!) Comment on pulling off all the old drywall and replacing it: I have had several projects in my old house where I mulled over the time and expense of pulling off siding, drywall or paneling. I have never regretted going this extra mile, because more often than not, I was not at all happy with the condition of the insulation or even the wiring. In one area I actually found that there had been a fire in the wall -- never could figure out what would have caused it -- but the burnt 2 x 4 's were not even replaced. When redoing the roof about the same time as that project, we found that wall with the damage studs had actually sunk about half an inch so that there was an area on my (flat) roof that was pooling water. In the end, it is always good to know what is in those walls! Also, I had originally had a washer and drier in the basement, and even though I am in only a one story, that was always a pain in the neck. I think the idea of having it upstairs is not a bad idea. Of course ideally, but not apropos to this house, would to have it on the main living area. So do consider the upstairs laundry area. When the clothes are dried, it is quick and easy to hang or fold and put away and not have to lug it up two stories. And do let them buy their own! I have seen how people treat washers and driers -- let them ruin their own. And right in the lease agreement you can put something that says anything put in must be approved and inspected by you. Remember what insurance, profit and loss statements and deposits are for. I think the same goes for a kitchen stove in that some tenants sure can abuse them. Unfortunately, you really are stuck having to buy a stove for them to use. So go cheap on kitchen appliances.

Putting the washer & dryer on the second floor is equal to putting a washer & drying on the first floor and another washer & dryer on the second floor. Because when something goes wrong, both floors will be affected.

Keep it in the basement! If you do decide to put it up have the washer and dryer/hook-ups only approved by you.

I'd leave the washer and dryer in the basement. If it goes wrong less to worry about, less work and you're already doing alot and you said you plan to eventually do another renovation on this house some years later. Also you have very little room upstairs and adding all the wiring plumbing and just machinery upstairs will take up more space that is so valuable.

Even when I was a renter, I preferred side-by-side W/D in the basement. More space, less noise and humidity where I sleep, less danger of major damage from flooding, and I hate front-loading washers. Top-loaders are virtually bulletproof. If someone can't climb many stairs, they can always go in/out the basement access door, or consider a laundry chute. I'd actually prefer you remove that raised floor if you're feeling ambitious.

I really enjoy watching the construction of the house. Will soon start building a garden shed. What I've learned from your channel will be really useful.

A little tip I got from my father-in-law who was a union carpenter. Use a spacer when using a string line. If you have a 3/4 spacer adjust your string line accordingly. Then use the spacer with your material to adjust to the string line. This lets you get as close as possible to the string line. But, alleviates the danger of actually moving your string with any of the material. I hope that makes sense.

Everything is looking magical! Will be much nicer. But, do you regret it? 😂😂 till next time 👍

Awesome work music - what is that?! Spanish bull fight procession music? Well done, as usual!

@@shelbyf6017 thank you.

I think having the washer/dryer hook up on the second floor is a good idea since you have all the walls open. I wouldn't buy the stackable unless I was convinced to but the option is good for tenants. Laundry on second floor instead of basement is pretty great.

Nooooo!!!! and they (whoever the tenants are ) won't probably appreciate it...plus we are assuming that THEY will think it's a good idea ...

I say leave washer and dryer in the basement. Having a nice big closet in the bathroom is more valuable to me for extra storage. Love all you do! What a workhorse you are! Nice of your dad to come and help you out some. All the best! Peace and Good Fortune to you and your family!

I would leave the washer dryer in the basement for the renters. But I would go ahead and put in the drain, electrical and plumbing. roughed in and not active so that you could easily finish it if you thought you would ever sell it. Laundry upstairs is always a great selling point. Love your videos! I have a 110 year old house and you give me great ideas for improvements I can make!
