Me personally, I would put the stove on the same wall as the fridge on the other side of that window instead of next to the sink because I would rather have more counter space next to the sink. I like to have a dirty and clean side for my dishes. If that makes sense.

Thanks, it was a nice project. Hoping to get more on there soon.
As a avid watcher of your videos, I think you have done a amazing job of redoing this house. "Real Time" is the key to what you are doing. Myself and others who appreciate what you do, know the, time it takes to renovate an existing structure. Those who watch renovation shows, really don't get real time in those segments; also they have many contractors assisting in those segments. I appreciate, you taking time to explain certain aspects of why you did what you did. I think, when the dry wall goes up those detractors will see the end results. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Do you still have that sign that the tenants left behind about "don't let the cat out, no matter what he tells you"? That might make a funny easter egg to leave in a wall for a future renovator to discover.
That floor transition is literally the most satisfying project I've seen so far.
I live in the country and the closest house to me was abandoned for like 15 years. It really looked bad. It was so nice when my town got a guy that started buying up property and flipping them. It looks brand new now and my new neighbors are great!

So nice to see you save these old homes
Your use of the reciprocating saw always reminds me of how years ago when I first started working in home improvement I couldn't afford every tool I wanted out of the gate, so those that were daily use came first. Eventually I picked up my first Sawzall, and when the next bit of deconstruction came about - well let's just say it was an emotional experience (there may also have been some maniacal laughter). And not that you need to hear this from me, but your schedule is your schedule. And how you effect the work you do is how it gets done. I'll be enjoying every video.
I love what you done with your hair. Mine looks just like it. I jumped in the car with wet hair out of the shower. When I got to the doctors office the staff couldn't quit smiling. I figured it out when I got home. 😊
Even though I don't agree on everything you say, I wouldn't say I look at you any differently than a successful awesome dude that is sharing everything, good bad and ugly, so that others may learn and hopefully not do the same things themselves. Keep on trucking on man, love your content!

I like to have some counter space on each side of the stove. And the more cabinets in the kitchen the better. So I vote for stove on same wall as refrig. Cabinet under window. I Enjoy watching you work. 😊
I like that what he said..."Look at your own lives, do you nail it every time, I sure don't" ... "I won't nail it in this house and I'm not going to nail it in the next house" No pun intended...I love it! (I think he nailed it!)
As a real estate investor on a small scale, I appreciate your channel and what you share.
I work new construction and 99% of our buyers are doing luxury vinyl plank. It’s great for rentals because it’s so durable and waterproof, looks nice and clean, and like you said in your case, the original floors can just be preserved underneath.
To have the stove next to the fridge is not energy effiecent, the heat from the stove will make the fridge have to work hard to maintain the cold temperatures. They should always be apart from each other. I love to see slow progress instead of other KZreadrs who make it to be like a show. This is so normal!

In Australia there are very clear 'recommendations' from both product manufacturers to not put them within 30cm of each other and no tradie worth their salt would install them near each other without cabinets between. Bit worrying.

Traditionally, they reused wood used initially to build the foundation framing. No one but you will realize how much work goes into the “small stuff” tasks.
I love that you are keeping walls! Keeps the character and the natural sound barriers.
I really enjoy your videos, many times they send me down memory lane. I am a retired real estate broker and I have sold many "fixer uppers". Some of them I bought for myself, and many others I sold to guys like you. To me the easy part was fixing up the home, the hard part was finding reliable long term renters who wouldn't trash your house. Thanks again for sharing your life with us.
Always happy to see a notification for these videos. Keep up the good work!

I can totally understand with you on the house you sold because of renter's causing problems. That happened to our neighbor here in Texas where we live. The people had way more ppl living there than allowed and they also had pets which was against the lease. The woman who owned the house was so nice she tried working with them but had to get them evicted. The renters poured motor oil all over the carpet and destroyed the inside of the house. She was very upset and said she would never rent again, she fixed the house and sold it. My parents rented for over 10 years and was never late on rent and our landlord actually didn't want us to move. Renting is kinda like gambling you can win and lose depending on if the people you rent to are honest good people who care about the property regardless of if it is "theirs" or not

Great progress in this one. I agree that the situation with the stove looks tight in that corner. I'm sure you'll figure it out. When I see the main plumbing stack going through the outside wall, it really drives home the fact that you live in the south. Here in Canada that would be a problem with freezing, and just being a cold spot as you can't insulate well there.

You could consider painting the floor with a solid color, it works quite well with pine and gives a nice bright room. Either white or light gray. Remember to add some sand or similar to the floors though, to avoid them becoming to slippery if you do it :)

Between that and the vinyl plank flooring this is going to look like a totally different place.

She says I’m not living in a house that’s being renovated so I’ll find a second house. A house that I can take my time renovating correctly.
I always try my best to repair things instead of tossing stuff in the garbage. I really love that you are breathing life into this beautiful old home. Most "developers" would have bulldozed it without a single thought of preserving the historical value of the home.
I remember seeing the first episode of this house and how rough it was. Pretty soon it's going to be ready for drywall like the $12,000 house was!
