The thing that caught my attention was you said that the client didn't want you telling what was going on with the property until after the deal was done....that tells me that some people aren't going to be happy with what's going to be done with the property
@terryblack-xo5vj: Exactly right!! the 500 condo development with "waterfront views" in your Florida paradise destination to crowd the Ft. Meyers area even more.
People will raise the sale price if they think you're going to make a lot of money on the deal. That's why Disney world land was bought in secret.
Both scenarios are plausable.
It's such a beautiful natural piece of Florida property. Sadly us Floridians know what's coming next.. 🏢💲🏢
😢
I think they will be very happy!!
Looks like the hurricane stripped out a bunch of romex also.😂😂😂
Yep I Seen That, Keen Eye.
@@removeitprosdemolition I understand it is the tornadoes that have those nimble fingers yet strengthy hands and arms yet tire easily - hurricanes have the upper body, strong legs and back and sustained are very good for a long weeks work.
Sounds like wise words to me!!
WOW !!! MY DREAM HOUSE ! GONE WITH THE WIND
So sorry....
You know, I was thinking nice house. What a waste.
The guy hunched over was scary. He's not reacting, I assume that means he was high as a kite, but that seems so dangerous to have that type of person around.
Yes I must look mean or something rarely get any conformations...run into squatters all the time......
You look like you could work in an undercover drug ring task force! Lol probably why no one messes with you
No, they just don't want police involved...lol
@@someguy9778 good point!
What a shame. Beautiful land and waterfront. The view is wonderful.
You will like what they are going to do with it!!! I f you like the beauty.
Interesting video thanks ~ but no need for the awful background music 👎🏻
Noted
And the cow just walks right by and says " cool" 😎
LOL
Damn just my kind show I'm glad you ended up in my feed I'm subscribed now !
Thanks for the kind words. Welcome!!
beautiful property. would have been great to live there sad the hurricane destroyed the place
Yes I agree.
Thanks, was a cool video😊 Love from AZ-US
Awesome. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Enjoyed thanks !
Thanks for watching!
Just found your channel.I enjoyed watching it. Thanks.
Welcome to the community!!!
Found your video in my feed and liked it. Gonna subscribe because I’d like to see more. Worked for a demo company for a stretch some years ago- I find it interesting. Such an idyllic setting, hope its beauty can be restored…new subscriber!
Awesome! Thank you! What area did you do demo at?
I worked in Allentown PA area for 4 long, hot summers during my college years. Mostly tearing parts out of industrial buildings that were being repurposed. Made me feel good to go back later and see how it turned out. Lotta sweat involved in the jobs I did but I made a couple friends…
@@glennmorrell4907 I love demo its inline with my skillset....lol
It's ashamed such a nice place has gone down so bad.
For sure
14:05 - That's a forge, and the hearth is where they've been smelting copper wire. They can't sell the wire, because the scrapyard won't buy it from them unless they know they're a professional scapper or demo like yourself. So they strip off the plastic, or just burn it off, then melt the wire into ingots, which they can sell for full value.
Stripping wire costs to much in labor unless its thick. That's my experience burning it off would be more efficient but they won't take it. Melting it I neve tried that.
@removeitprosdemolition Yes, but you have a job, and lots of things to do. Whoever did this had plenty of time on their hands, and a powerful need for easy money with no questions asked.
@@removeitprosdemolitiontoo much labor xD - na, addiction is a full time job.
Where would i get a kiln?
@@johndoe-is2fw
People who grew up in that area been fishing that area for decades some northerners come in and tell them you can't fish around here it's happened to me in south Florida
Not sure I understand?
Wah....try buying your own water front.
You can't come to Michigan and hunt on my property either.
Walking under that house with the squatter I'm seeing thousands of dollars (retail) in lumber from the deck to the laminated beams under the house.
Yep I see that if I had a big enough place I would deconstruct many of these house and sell off everything.... some dy>>
Definitely have a lifetime of knowledge there sir💪🏾🙏🏾💪🏾🙏🏾
I appreciate that
Lol, "i dont know who is here, dont want a situation" ...proceeds to smash window. 😅
Well, I still had to make sure nobody was in there
Hurricaine Agnes game through while I was a child. Many of the rural houses/trailers washed away, or were pushed off their foundations. They ended up draped over/around trees.We helped the owners get some of the mud covered stuff out because we were lighter. We dug jewelry, tools, etc. out of the mud for a year afterward. We thought the world was ending when the bloated corpses of cows and horses began floating downriver. The river took out dozens of homes....and came three inches from the edge of our porch. We felt mixed feelings coming back down out of the evacuation houses higher up the mountain. Half the neighborhood was gone, but our house stood. The woods had clothing and bedding and whatnot caught high in their branches once the water came down. A few boat remnants as well. It didn't dry out to the riverbanks for a very long time. That's a very beautiful spot! Very low to the ground; that should be taken into consideration. I was looking at the birdcage! That would go for a few hundred on Craigslist, cleaned up a little, they are very SPENDY. I'd love to harvest driftwood/deadwood in an area like that. The least likely outcome is use the boggy land for water loving agricultural crops. Rice comes to mind. I'd still work around those beautiful oak trees. I'm sure the crocs are out in force. It's kinda their house. They'd prefer a fish farm, I'm sure! It's a shame habitat for humanity doesn't have a crew to cannibalize the useable fixtures, sinks, rails, etc. I know it's a time thing for you guys. Have fun, and be careful!!!!! I wasn't interested much until I saw all the flood damaged houses and remembered. Reall cool! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the insights, my house got pummeled after IAN and all those thing you described are things ai recently lived through.
I vividly rember Agness. Was a kid and my Grandmother lived out on Snell Isle - St. Petersburg, stayed at her house during that. The water came all up all the way to the pool/ patio area and the streets flooded. No water in the house. The beaches got whacked pretty good including the destruction of the old Penguin restaurant at the beach. My parents house was in another part of town at a higher elevation of 44 feet. Some homes going down hill were true split levels rather than just a one story slab on grade sort of affair.
I may be looking you up Dave.....god bless 🇺🇸
God Bless!!
Oh My Goodness we laughed so hard after you said "Don't put that in"! Priceless!!!
I've got issues..lol
@@removeitprosdemolition
@@removeitprosdemolitionDon't we all? 😅
Beautiful property
Yes it is!!!
I am fascinated in a voyeuristic sense with your videos. I keep thinking about who lived there, their story, and what happened.
We throw so much stuff away, but I get the economics of it all. I admire you for at least trying.
Keep up the good work.
(What is your eBay store?)
The houses were damaged to the point that the owner could not repair them. Maybe didn't have insurance.
reuseitpros is our ebay store. www.ReuseItPros.com is our resale website.
I hope you carry.... Love your vids
Thanks and I should carry.....lol
This was a fun video! I’m looking forward to follow-up videos to this one.
What was that blue thing sitting on the floor at the 3:30 mark? At first I thought it was a sled/toboggan…but, in Florida? Then I thought that it looked vaguely like a mini bumper car. You do find some interesting stuff, Dave.
kids toy
Interesting video. Thank you, Dave.
Glad you enjoyed it
Crazy demo
We Love Crazy Demo!!
So interesting! Thanks for the tour and the education in how to pick the good stuff from the bad stuff. Cheers!
Your welcome thanks for the reply.
Once again watching you do your job and so very happy you try and salvage things. I hate when people toss things when they are still good. Like that mirror you busted. I saved a large mirror and hung it in my garden and it was like I opened up a new world view. It is very nice. Maybe you can do the same.
Agreed. I hate to waste things that are good. It's such a shame. As far as the mirror goes our protocol is to not carry any mirrors that are big or without a sturdy frame. It's too dangerous for my employees. They are too thin and I've seen them break in hands (Including my own) multiple times and cut people. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
7 (seven) years of bad luck when you break a mirror.
Looks like North Queensland,Australia, 20 years ago . We get monster storms too with floods so destroyed homes are part of life here.
Part of life here too hurricane IAN destroyed everything along the coast here, we are still recovering.
New subscriber. Looking forward to demolition. Be safe👍🏻
Thanks for subbing. Do you do scrap metal.....
@@removeitprosdemolitionMost of us call it recycling here cause we don’t make any money collecting and sorting different metals.🤷🏻♀️
Love the deck
💪
Interesting ,, !!!
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching did you subscribe?
Just sold my home in Cape Coral just on the n fort Meyers border. Trying to figure out where you are. We were off pine island rd the end of twenty fourth st. My first winter in eighteen years staying backin mass. Miss the sunshine and warm temps.
Cohn Rd North Fort Myers.
Surprisingly, there is a lot of salvageable material in those houses.
By the time we got to it the squatters took all the best stuff we did repurpose some of it.....
Hey Dave, I think I met you years ago through Brian Vickers. Yep, I am the Diversified Home Inspection Shirt House at the end. Funny. I lived there till the hurricane.
Very cool! Was that your shirt.....funny. I remember Brian. Cool guy.
Ok, thanks.
Welcome!
I don't like destruction of things without reason. I get the demo. Not the mirrors. Hope you had fun doing it.
The mirrors i just fun....they are dangerous to move....hard to sell!!!
The "antennas" are called outriggers for a sportfishing boat. Valuable!
Stolen
25:38... I thought another hurricane was passing by! 😂
LOL
It was just a big wind....
Your vids just happen to start playing in my feed so I watch a cpl then subbed to channel..... pretty nifty to see the destruction and such...
Thanks for the encouragement.
Im a letter carrier, over the years ive been able to go into houses to salvage things before they tear them down. I love doing that. Kljustissed a good one, smh guy didnt let me know about demolition. I was off a day and it disappeared. 15 years on a route i know lots of owners selling their homes for big bucks. Then condos and apartments are built..in Irish ☘️ Country.
Its fun right!!!
when you were saying the hurricane pulled that sheetrock down, what you should have said was that tweaker in the previous house pulled it down for the copper wires. you can see them clipped out all over.
I was confused you are right, And we put some straps on the buildings to use to pull them over in another video that's is coming and those guys took them off. It took on of my crews all day to put them all up. Those guys stripped all the houses to some degree all illegal. Stole all the valuable stuff. Karma
When you do the salvage do you also save those big beams on the stilt house..looks like real nice wood..
I am nervous about selling stuff like that being in the ground for 25 or more years. I do not have enough room for them either.
I wonder if you could offer a local part time scrapper a couple of hours pre-demo to take that little bit of scrap to earn a couple of bucks
We have some crews we can send out to collect the scrap before we go demo the place. Our guys have been doing it a while and are great at recovering what we want. Thanks for watching!
Just found your channel and subscribed! Looking forward to watching demo and learning what’s going in afterward. 🚜🧨🕌
Welcome aboard!
Sad situation.
This is a good thing for the community, until they close can't say why but its a good thing for us all!!!
What the hell happened to this place after the storm, everyone just abandoned it? These places don't look that bad at all.
To expensive to repair, was put on the market and vacated. Once it closes I will let you know what they are doing with
it.
Hi this is my 3rd video. Im lovin it! Would like to see the demolition aspect as well but I would love to have a 700 and knock down homes and such for profit thats like every mans dream! haha
Thanks for watching!!!
Well that was a fun video, did that guy sitting under the house ever wake up? Gosh that would really scare me 😳
Yes he woke up, looked high.
@@removeitprosdemolition gosh, that’s scary
@TrashorTreasure-ie3sz: You may want to pay closer attention and check out the fake leather jacket seen later in the video. The guy was describing his "adventure" in the boats, the hurricane and his brother's family had lived in the house they were standing in while talking.
@@gcflower99 I will look we are starting the tear down this week.
the "heater" is a knife-making forge. 2-300 dollars
Good to know. Thanks for watching
Hey with no electricity how was the ceiling fan running no wind outside either?
I didn't pick up on that probably just the wind or who knows, maybe it was a ghost.
Did you do a video of the whole demolition and an update?
Let me think about that.....
I'm interested to know what they are doing with the property. Nice plot looking at property records
Ill let you know once we get done.....
That 40ft mast is worth about $1,500 on eBay.
Good to know
Removing the motors off lawn mowers and power washers will yield alot more money at a scrap yard. Definitely worth the couple of minutes
Thanks
Why did all these people move out of their houses and not a single one did stay...... strange to me.
Thanks for the input!!! Did you subscribe?
@@removeitprosdemolition I did
Building anything in Florida out of wood is just a waste of time and money. Concrete is the way to go.
After Seeing What IAN Did You Are Surly Right. Most Frame Buildings Were Destroyed or Gone.
@@removeitprosdemolition Poured concrete walls or masonry can both do the job. My parents live in Fort Myers, and their house is block with a tile roof. They only lost two or three tiles in Ian, and had a couple of trees knocked over.
The walls are down and ceiling is down, because they just pulled the drywall, and stripped the copper wire.
I am slow but you are exactly right.....
The squatter seemed like a nice guy
I think he is too!! Took a bunch of stuff that wasn't his.....got some really fun videos coming on this project they will be worth the wait.......soon.......
House #1 looked really nice. My Amish neighbors would salvage the entire house.
Its interesting to hear your opinion. Our online store www.reuseitpros.com been doing this for over 10 years.
You start swinging that backhoe around the squatters are going to be running everywhere
Yeah police were out there yesterday.
Sad. They looked like nice homes.
I bet they were might not have had flood insurance not sure. What a mess.
They had cheap kitchens though, so where else did they chintz out?
It looks like the guy in the garage is on ketamine… all bunched over
Yea. Not a good situation.
Someone was doing some partying off the microwave glass plate lol
Really!!!
Didn't know squatters drive Cadillacs and have yachts.
We have a special kind of squatter's here
I can only imagine the problem for landfall area needed in Florida.
What is landfall area?
@@removeitprosdemolition landfill... damn spell check!
Looks at outriggers - "They're basically big antennas"
Yes you are correct, wish I could have remembered what they were when I was talking I have a set for my boat....sometimes I talk faster than I can think......
The brush still works.
Which brush?
Years back, I rented a beautiful property from the mother of one of the girls in our circle of friends. I had two or three good years there, and she finally sold it to developers that were going to put up a condominium complex. I had already moved out and spoke to the mom and she said that Monday they were going to demolish the house and if there’s anything I wanted left in the home, to help myself. So me and one of my buddies went over there and busted both of the glass doors, ripped things off the walls kicked holes. He took a leak in the dishwasher, just basic asshattery LMAO. A couple weeks later I saw the daughter and she told me someone broke in and destroyed the house. lol
Full transparency, it took several hits to break the glass doors and I also drove through the overhead garage door. 🐐
Its fun!!! Never gets old.
Not a kiln a forge for heating metal watch forged in iron once
Got it!!
Just out looking for expensive stuff and smashing massive mirrors 😳🤷😂
That sums it up.....
@@removeitprosdemolition so,,, I guess you've never bought a large mirror? 😂
I fear they're just gonna come in and bulldoze all those trees down It will no longer be a private little paradise. Could be wrong but I doubt it.
No trees will be removed!!!
I was in demo for ten years as a frameless dump trailer hauler. I am just a driver. If you want me to pick up copper, I am keeping it. I am not going to line your pockets.
Well good for you my guys are paid well and have incentives, its a good think for everyone, So when we are slow instead of sending guys home we work them and this money helps with that. God Bless
A property that’s been destroyed by a hurricane because it’s that low lying should never be built on again. Those extreme weather events are only going to get worse and more frequent.
It's a really unfortunate situation. Are you in Florida?
I wonder why you don’t keep the heavy beams
Which heavy beams?
@ 26:02, that mirror on your left is laughing at you. You better show it who the boss is ! !
We missed that one.
Squatter rights have been squashed. They no longer have rights to occupy buildings that are not their property. Be aware, get the squatters out.
Praise GOD!!!
Actually the cord to the generator is not running inside the house. Its in a plug inside then runs outside.
I didn't see that!!
Will there be a update video a before and after
I will have Lee go out and Drone the property. It was bought by Lee County as a park.
Oh sweet thanks great work ive just found your channel and been binge watching lol

Each of your videos are like a "mini-series" on interesting subjects, those of us who are "arm-chair" types. Same way that I've been watching This Old House since 1979. Once these old ruined homes are removed, in come the beach palaces. Sad to see Old Florida slowly fade away but Old Florida went away in 1960. My viewpoint is Florida before Disney and Florida after Disney. Or Charleston before Hugo and after. Everything changed post Hugo for the better. My fear is the Tampa Bay area to where half the homes in St. Petersburg were built before 1960. We thought that Ian was going to go that way but like every other big storm after 1921, it has been spared. It will be a massive insurance disaster should something like Ian hit that part of the state. 700 miles of low high flood hazard coast line in the Bay Area and a lot of the homes are not built to today's standards.
Thanks for watching and I hear you they are all heading to Tampa and they never seem to get hit. We have been hit different ways 5 times since I have been here, each situation very different. IAN was a direct hit on FMB and Sanibel and Naples.
Easy to see why it had to go. Building in flood and especially storm surge areas is a bad idea.
Yes this area took a really bad hit. Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel will take many years to rebuild.
ALL THE APPLIANCES EVEN WATER CAN BE RECLING FOR$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ IF THAY DONT WORK YOU CAN SCRAP THEM
Correct. Usually we bring them back if they are not working to put them in our scrap container for scrap. Once it's full we take it to the scrapyard.
