Every time I watch one of your videos it's clear that you read the comments. Unlike other content creators who become embittered by negative comments, you seem to be able to laugh at naysayers and wink at the rest of us. This is rare, and a talent. You allow us to see your personality, which some KZreadrs are afraid will alienate viewers. They want to be everything to all people. You are why we watch these videos. Your lack of gloves, your hats with holes, your winks to the "ladies" and that interminable concrete block are part of the recipe. Go on.

You really don't have to justify yourself. I just found your channel recently but already binge watched almost all of your videos. What really made me stay and subscribe was the fact, that you are thoughtful and acting responsible in what you do. And sometimes the right thing to do is realizing that a project is taking a toll on you and that you need to leave it be for some time. Don't justify yourself for who you are because you are an awesome, honest, solid dude who many people should look up to! I know I do :)

Honestly can't even disagree with you. It's informative, funny, and entertaining all at the same time.

Be careful with the recessed lights in proximity of the ceiling fan. If it's too close you will get a nauseating strobe effect when the lights and fan run simultaneously. I may or may not know this from personal experience 🙄

I am always happy to see you wear a mask when working. You never know what yuck is in the dust. You are one of the hardest working people that I have ever seen.

We also have the SimpliSafe and when you opened the door and the system chirped my chihuahua heard it and went nuts. He thought someone was coming in the kitchen door. LOL

You're such a wholesome person. I'm really glad you have a sponsor, you deserve it! Keep the good work going!

If it helps motivate you, I can honestly say you are incredibly inspirational for me. I've gotten back into woodworking, done larger projects around the house than I would have otherwise, etc... You and creators like you, help make that possible. Thank you!

We laughed our butts off and then I took it back to Lowes and found something else. :o)

Wait... I already binge watched this whole series until today's upload?! I feel attached to this cute little house now and to the Man vs. Pillar story line. I have a feeling that finally conquering that concrete pillar will be more satisfying for you than the whole renovation of the house combined. :D

Happy to see a new video! I was going through "$9,000 House" withdrawal.

I still remember back when u bought the house and said u didn't want to do anything major to it, that it'd be just basic cosmetic stuff. heh. I'm glad it didn't turn out that way.

Glad to see ya back at it! I just got done rewiring our "new" 1940 home. It was quite the job with minimal wall opening. Luckily I had some balloon framing with no fireblock in the 4 corners of the house so I could run wires up and down them. I ended up not planning some of the runs too well as I used more wire than I should have through the attic to get to some switches, but all in all it wasn't too bad. Side benefit, I now know where every wire in my house is run.

I love watching you explain it and then do the work in high speed. I sometimes get a little bored watching every little thing somebody does, but once you’ve explained it and we know kind of what to expect you to do then running through it in high speed makes it easy to stay interested. I love it whenever you open a new “box o’ lights” and think about that every time you put up a can light, now. Also love the battle with the pillar! 😂

Thank you Simplisafe for making this possible.

It's hard work but it's so much more rewarding than working in an office for someone else's business. Keep at it, it's really motivating and inspiring.

I really look forward to seeing this house completed. Great work.

I work in construction and remodeling and watching it is a lot more entertaining than doing it. I'm only 21 too but I wanna do what this guy does.

Stay motivated and keep up the good work. I love watching your series! It helps me stay motivated to keep up on my own diy projects. Thank you!

Another excellent video. Thank you simply safe for making this update “motivational”.

Always great to see a video from you. It's been so hot about everywhere, I can totally understand a lack of motivation to to do renovation work right now. Has it really been a year already? You touched on one of the reasons I think renovation channels are so popular; it's so darn satisfying to see bit by bit, room by room, project by project, come to completion. Every project builds upon itself until you get closer and closer to completion, and seeing the results of all that effort. I have no doubt it's satisfying to you with all your hard work put into it, but it's very satisfying to watch, too!

Glad to see ya back. Totally understand needing a break.

Always enjoy watching your videos! Thank you to SimpliSafe for sponsoring.

Found your channel about a week ago. Have enjoyed watching you. I come home from work 8hrs - Whenever I get done schedule and just relax and watch channels like this. Pickup lots of good ideas. BTW the 15k house looked awesome. I am planning to buy your book.

There’s something so beautiful about that blue floral wallpaper to me. I would have saved a bit to frame and hang in the house once it’s done. I just ADORE this little house. 💜

Just wanna let you know I watch every min. of your videos!! Congrats on the sponsorship again. So much useful info. in your videos & always interesting to watch. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey Mike G out!!!

I really enjoy watching you do these renovations and videos. I know it is a huge effort to make the videos but you bring good joy to the people watching. I like your attitude. Hoping you all the best! Hold your head above water even if there are things going on that might try to bring you down every now and then.

Great to see you back at it again. Thank you so much for the motivation.

Cant wait to see more! I have been remodeling a small 1940's house this year and you have provided a lot of inspiration on my project. Thanks and keep it up..most everytime I get on youtube I look to see if you have posted #25!

Greetings from the Show-Me State! Love your videos! My husband and I are saving up to buy a house, while we won't be buying one that needs as much TLC as the ones you renovate, these videos are really helpful for what to look for when it comes to big repairs. Your videos are also a great motivator while cleaning/organizing around our current apartment. Keep on keeping on, ignore the haters and the trolls (they're just gonna hate anyway), and do it at your own pace. The rest of us viewers always have the previous videos to fall back on if we need a home renovation fix. PS - It is in the 90s here with almost 50% humidity- I totally understand humidity being an energy zapper when mixed with heat.

Motivation can be tough especially when it’s hot. I’m in Florida and just started a camper van conversion. After 30 minutes of ripping a sheet of plywood my shirt was soaked through with sweat.

I am enjoying watching the progress of the $9,000 house. Keep up the momentum! I can imagine its very frustrating, but you have a dedicated following that appreciates all the work you put into these houses (like me). Thank you for all the information along the way on "how to" do things. Its inspiring!!!

I know the feeling! Sometimes it feels like it's never going to be complete. But before you know it, it's done! I sometimes alternate from what I should be doing, to what i want to be doing. Like pulling out the old furnace, just for the hell of it, lol. It's really motivating to see you work on your house too. I love these video's! I hope you'll find the motivation to keep going. I think you should just get all the walls done, so you could start with drywall, that always makes me feel better. Thank's again!
