Buying a giant abandoned storage warehouse unit

- This place was quickly abandoned shortly after taking possession of the property. I actually shot this video a few months ago and forgot about it, as I was waiting to put a security system on it before posting, as there's stuff in here I've been told is worth BIG BUCKS.
If you see ANYTHING In here that you're interested in, or can identify, be sure to post in the comments or let me know!

Let me know what you think about this 'style', no editing, just following me along on the biggest unboxing video ever!
For this video it fit the purpose. im not sure all videos would work as well but il leave that for your judgement.
It's cool I'll watch whatever you post bro!
no edit is fine
This is fine.
Yes! I like it. It would be awesome to have all the “hillbilly” unboxings be labeled such in the title. Lol but look at me back seat coaching you
Your time is worth a lot more than the days you would spend getting that place empty and selling everything. Better get the place cleaned up and ready to rent for another decade ASAP. I would just pay some local hoarders to get everything cleaned up and let them sell the material and keep the money for themselves. I'm sure all added up is not even one month of rent, which is what you lose if you spend too much time getting the place cleaned up. I'm curious to know, what is your plan for handling this? Thanks for sharing, I like this style of content 👍
I would have just told them to take all their stuff with them and bill them for its removal if anything is left. You can't just leave all your junk behind for the landlord to deal with.
Propane bottles for forklifts (horizontal operation) and such are EXPENSIVE, even used ones are quite pricey. Don't just let them go for cheap.
Next episode: The warehouse renters broke in to get their stuff that they left.
Questions: Edited or unedited?
Answer: just keep it less than 20 minutes and I'm happy.
Same. IT's cool if every once in awhile he makes a long one but I prefer 20 minutes or less.
It's all mostly resellable or scrap metal, but recycle as much as you can to cut trash hauling down.
Can't you give the welding stuff to a local welder? You might need him in the future?
Maybe you need to invest in an assistant.
Got one!
Well Brandon, you've managed to buy yourself another pile of sh*t that needs cleaning up. Not sure why you keep doing it to yourself, when so many other projects are still unfinished. I guess you thought you'd get some easy cashflow since it had long time renters already there.
best find my friend found at an industrial site was a vintage glass bottle vending machine in working order. the vending company went out of business decades ago and just left the machines behind; the part supplier just kept filling it on their own. when the part supplier went out of business, they left everything behind.
*I wonder if the opportunity cost of trying to sell the things*
Rather than getting rid of it is worth it 🤔🤔
those flash cards are worth a bit of money and they're pretty awesome. they utilize flash memory for extremely quick (near-instant) read-write speeds without any maintenance
Not so much a Hillbilly Unboxing as a Hillbilly answer to Urban Exploration, albeit with owned property.
Kinda a bad time to want to raise rent on a small business, don’t you think?
Well now he lost a long term tenant for a few 100$ not like the place look nice and all
$150/mo or $1800/year isn't that bad considering the location. Watch something better and profitable come in who thinks the rent is a steal, which it is due to the location, and they would sign a long term lease agreement quickly at the new rent price or even at $1000/mo.
Look how the tenant left the place when they moved out, how do you think it looked when they occupied it? My guess is some kind of 1990s museum is how the place originally looked.
I mean I get it, you have to make money but to make a video bragging about how they were mad you tried to increase their rent and so they left you all their stuff seems in poor taste..... I get the feeling they were on the edge of loosing their business and this was the nail in the coffin..... honestly I’m all about capitalism but this video rubs me the wrong way.
@@BangBangBang. yah and for only 1800$ a year he lost his long term tenant and might take a very long time to get another business due to the coronavirus and how it looks inside like he thinks 2 bathroom means alot for a business usually 1 for employees is good enough for something that small.
It is like his trailer park only trashy people will rent there no real good tenant will rent in stuff like that
@@maximeroussel7601 3500 sq feet poured concrete with a roll up door, he will have no problem finding tenants. That is about perfect for a shop for a contractor once you rip out the walls.
Brandon, I'm an Electrician for a living, and let me tell you, The transformers that you have if not dated and in working condition are worth a pretty penny even used. The same for the PLC cabinets on the ground if any guts are inside, but still just the shell would be a nice cheque from the right person.
It's hard for me to find right person
@@InvestmentJoy Lookup Commercial Electrical companies in the tri-state area and give them a ring. If not eBay will be the last resort.
The thing with "good bearings" looks like a shreader.
couple of extension cords a couple of clamps , a vice , heap of ewaste , metal recycling , ladder , and a lack of balance and a heap of gravity pulling things to the floor
The flat file cabinet is worth around $400 to a printer or artist. Call a local auction place to come get all of it.
First item looks like some sort of flywheel. The second was a plug valve.
Definitely items that are worth a good price to the right person. Get an intern to help you sell extra stuff from all your properties.
While you were crawling through an old warehouse; I was spraining my foot and crawling like I had gout!
Those flash mem cards are actually expensive don't know if they hold any value but it's going to cost you to buy them
horrible time to lose a long-term tenant... kind of surprised you would make this move..
Yep, and good luck finding a new renter in a Virus induced economic disaster.
I don't know what rent is like in ohio for commercial spaces but I feel like someone things it's better to cut and run as opposed to negotiation with a new owner then they probably we're sticking around much longer anyway.
@@SinSpawn9000 well it doesnt help that he wanted to Raise rent when were in the middle of a huge rescission brought on by the COVID-19 Pandemic I would have told him also to shove his money where the sun dont shine and left the place was probably barely hanging on and breaking even and here comes new owner wanting more money so they probably did the math saw that they'd end up loosing money and going into debt so they said F it and left
@@BryanGullickson here's the thing if they are already in a good location with well below market rent it's heavily in their favor to negotiate even if it means they have to pay a bit more at that location I can almost guarantee that if they find a new location it won't be below market average, also most states put a moratorium on eviction for the pandemic so if they just said "nah rent stays the same or we just won't pay" then it's highly likely that he couldn't evict them anyway.
And besides all of that when you are negotiating a change in rent the party already renting can negotiate right back like getting the owner to make some kind of change or upgrade to the building, hell I don't know if where he's at has rent control but if it does then he couldn't raise the rent without the renters agreeing to a new contract anyway.
The welding stuff is worth something
I think so, but going through it is a challenge
Welding rod will only be good if still in a sealed box, if they’re left out exposed to the air they absorb the moisture and won’t weld well
@@Boerkie1990 I’ve had the flux crack and fall off
Commercial real estate is crashing hard. It would likely have been more profitable to reduce the rent instead of trying to find a new commercial tenant during the Greater Depression of 2020-2025. Please let us know when you find a tenant.
Yeah seems like a bad move losing the tenants immediately.
The compact flash is a easy sell, they are used with a sata or IDE adaptor as a replacement for a hard drive on older systems,smaller systems or ones that have to sit unattended for a long time. or cut a deal with a local tech group and get them to take away a pile of crappy tech stuff (thats expensive to dispose of!) in exchange for the CF cards
PLCs are also worth a lot if you find any ;)
While I'm at it.... any Sony trinitron based CRT in reasonable order will fetch 40 bucks and up. And those metal pigeon hole shelves.... seriously mate get them off to a upseller and cut a deal, they are worth a few hundred bucks sandblasted then powdercoated, and sometimes they're ironically worth more left dirty! Here in the UK (where distance isn't such a issue!) a guy called Drew Barrymore would already be in his van and on the way to you! Done right they're real boutique chic, even done wrong they're still a functional item ;)
I pass by your trailer park alot being a trucker, and the place is looking better. Nice work!
Every time you mention a rental price it blows my mind. Then I have to remember where you are and do a Ohio to major city conversion (x2) and then convert USD$ to CAD$ and even then it still seems ridiculously cheap.
1 gig flash drives sell well. When i worked for office depot wr had people looking for them all the time to run certain specific machines
The drawing cabinet is one good thing. Maybe some desks or cabinets, that green metal chair (no one can kill them) The transformers look to be dry ones, so no problem. The electrical panels are interesting, but again it will be an issue finding the right buyer. Still there is quite a bit of scrap/stock metals. There is still a dumpster of materials to get out.
There’s actually a pretty good market for old floppy disks. There’s a dude online that buys and sells them.
Brandon: I’m failing as a landlord of 140 rentals and the trailer park ain’t finished yet
Also Brandon: WAREHOUSE TREASURES
I’m of course joking around, Godspeed to you good sir!
Trailer park really turned a corner in September, it's looking really, really great
Cooling one room while heating another with the same unit? Now thats what I call efficiency.
Dun rite!
might actually be able to ebay those CF cards, they are small but they are HARD to find and still used for old stuff
those CRT's can also fetch some moneys... they are sought after these days and very hard to find for sale
Gonna echo what someone else said, get most of that stuff that isn't obviously trash to a public auction, even the desks and tables will likely net some money.
I love your content man, I want to get into real estate in the near future, and this channel is really good for understanding the in's and out's. GREAT WORK!
The spinny thing is some kind of shredder. There's a gear on the outside to hook up to a motor. My guess would be something thin would get shredded up like maybe aluminum.
Don't waste any time on selling that stuff - your time is already at a premium. Like someone below said, have someone clean it up and get that building back on the market. Good luck! Good content!
Just a heap of scrap metal... burned out motors, ancient forklift chargers, pipe fittings in sizes no one could use.
The electrical panels might be worth something but professionals only use new and amateurs don’t pay well. Keep the shelves/furniture and give your brother anything he scan sell then scrap the copper motors and forklift transformers and bin the rest.
The metal shelving units are worth a bit to interior designers
Also metal drawers, dividers, older chairs and older desks 😍
The walk through videos are hands down my fav videos !
NEC Elite 48 phone system circa 2004
You could sell a lot of the cabinets and furniture in there and call it industrial. People love that stuff and they are willing to pay good money to take it home with a story.
Man oh man. I see that as loft housing. For me.
Found you in my reccomended yesterday, the house with the Bible thumbnail. Watched it. As a child of a landlord it's interesting to see the differences between how you handle the job.
I know you're a big advocate of home ownership but I don't ever plan on not renting (it's just me and my partner, and as you know houses are a lot of work). I'll be a tenant for life and I'd like to say to all your detractors, you treat your tenants better than I've been treated by several of my landlords. The way some of them treat your properties makes my heart hurt.
Keep on doing what you do. You've definitely earned my subscribe and like :)
Ooooh I remember those knucklebuster credit card machines. Broke many a customer's card in half with those.
remember your boss yelling at you for using too many of the papers because it didn't carbon copy good enough? The official fix would be to put the card face up, the papers over it then run a disposable pen over it which got more pressure on it.
It's time the world should appreciate the development of crypto currency, coz the way it makes good returns within a short period of time to, makes it so much lucrative and profitable

Copier, printer... OOOOOLD credit card processing equipment...looks like a magazine/book display (huge!)...
I've got a couple 1gb usbs, I got them in 2010 :)
Phones are NEC i-series NEAX-2000 IPS phone system? Or possibly NEC Elite, or even a NEAX 2400 IPX. Look in the phone rooms for boxes marked NEC.
current ca. 2004, but if working these systems are feature rich and easy to customize. Very useful, though not necessarily resellable. 3:24 That's an NEC Elite B2-48. With the phones, you might possibly get as much as $1000 off eBay, but more likely around $300-400 ... Or leave in place and make it a selling feature of the warehouse ... Comes with PBX service...
9:56 😳 that's a big electric motor. 😉 Nice find.
P.s. The "centrifuge" looks like it's part of some kind of stepper motor. They seem to have a few stepper motors in that same room, think there's a square shaped one in the bottom right at 8:36. 😉✌️
P.s.s. The wielding rods, and table can be worth some money. 😉✌️
Back 2 dumpsters in. One for metal and one for trash and hope the metal pays for the trash
The thing that was spinning is a torn apart shredder. Notice the chute below it.
6:28
some kind of shredder/ recycler that's missing a chain and motor
9:00
you will need to look and see what's on top of that office ceiling, I'm sure there's more stuff on top of it.
That would be a great auto body facility
Same people complaining about raising the rent are the same that spent their stimulus check on a new TV or gaming system instead of paying their rent. Commercial property is never cheap. You also take into consideration of where the property is located as well as square footing and compare to other local rent. Even in a pandemic, new businesses are popping up all over the place. This unit will be rented fast. $1000-$1100 is super cheap for this type of property. If he spends $15,000 to fix it up, I wouldn't be surprised if that cost doubles.
You can definitely sell those chairs as vintage to hipsters
Some of that stuff probably qualifies as antiques
am I "old" If I can remember those credit card emboss swipe things?
Maybe so but you're not the only one
@@fillg Credit card rep trying to sell me on his terminal 20 years ago called them "knuckle busters". Although I never busted a knuckle on one...
Worse day ever when the system went down. Had to go old school and use one of those.
I was actually telling my kids about these and how I used to love using them for customers as a teenager.
This guy is a risk taker. He bought a warehouse without getting it inspected.
Alot of them old computer tech is worth some money, older computers people are using again for diffrent things now.
That bolt bin is worth some $$
That is a machining/machinist's vice at 4:15. Handy item!
I like the old steel chair in the front room.
9:17 is a casing and stator for a servo motor. You need to hire a property manager. Your time is better spent scouting the next deal.
It is unreal that you live in an area with an abundance of completely unwanted land
This guy is incredible I love his business mindset!! Well done mate!
Only a minute into this video but i already like it lol I used to clean out trailers for an old landlord and would find all sorts of stuff
how do commercial rents work in America? wouldn't it be usual to do annual increases? the rent at my shop is pegged at the inflation rate which is the usual thing done in Australia and our leases tend to be more fixed term so you cant just quit it whenever you want.
I remember using those old school CC slider when I worked at Texaco, miss those stations.
Q) Do you like edited or unedited better?
A) If edited, it should be ten minutes or more. If unedited, fifteen minute bursts.
Id buy a crt off of you. You can sell those for a very good price if they work!
They made 1 GB CF cards back in the mid to late 90s along with that credit card terminal and the old school card swiper for when your terminal went down then you had to submit cards at the end of day when the terminal came back online. I think about that time you had 512mb and 1 GB USB drives a lot of you are familiar with thrown in for free in 50 - 100 packs of CD-Rs.
they were using those ancient computers and monitors in 2020?
Host a public auction yourself. Or a yard sale.
I could use that sprayer
This would make for an ideal 3d printfarm
Bro take all the stuff out asap and save it somewere and better to fix the Office first.
For the little thing you can see later how you are going to sell it.
Wish you good luck bro and much more success to you.
Old Butcher?(I beam throughout reminds me of the local butchers)
Also the box is at least 1/2 the value of that tractor.
Man seeing some of that scrap I want it to melt into cool ingots and fun stuff! I’d love to salvage the silver from those contacts of the breakers! I’m jealous!
U need to have a warehouse sale.
its this place what recently in youtube,were some urbex youtubers explored it..wont share link,cuse it has location name and adress in video info
Love the video, excited to see more!
You would do better to turn it into a bunk house or rooming house share kitchen and bath and everyone has their own room though not big but it's your own space . Ideal for minumum wage people and beats the streets .
Wow 900.00 That would run you 2500.00 in Sac California.
So jealous!
Your Warehouse is the perfect size for a small mobile company
Watch him turn it into another laundry
Yes, just 300ft away
@@InvestmentJoy 🙏🙏🙏
I love your video's. I have always dreamed of buying properties as you do but not as many.
Call the junk man. Most of it has little to no value.
Place just needs cleaned up.
My man is in the backrooms rn
7:59 I the only one who got a bad feeling for a sec and thought someone’s bottom part of their leg was by the door? Also, I know the english is horrendous
Those transformers look like they were for 3 phase machines.
It’s not worth more than $2 a sq ft/ year my guess. I rent a lot of commercial space. $7000/12. $600/month. A lot of cleanup easily $3.50-4 a square foot. Probably easier Money than the trailers.
How can you go about buying abandoned warehouses that I find ?
I think they should have negotiated with you!!
Is it wrong for me to wish a raccoon was going to jump out and try to run away from the evil human invading his space?
Lots of scrap copper and scrap metal
Your brother would probably be the best bet to make the fastest money off that stuff since he's already got the space and connections and split the profits how you see fit.
That xerox toner goes fast on eBay
I missed you Brandon I'm kinda new and love the channel I'm in ky and if you ever need modest and honest maintenance man to see over things I'm a God Fearing Man that can help you do repairs or management Woodford Detailing & Services. I'm still learning about stocks and your the only one I'd want to teach me I watch Kevin ana the other but you are by far closer to my kind of peeps Brandon and you explain yourself correctly. Also love the trailer park videos and love the new revels and unboxong videos also the laundry mat and weekly change count. Wouldnt no one get in your Landry mat with me watching 6'5 235 pounds and don't like no thief or any that can't have respect for other people stuff and property that doesn't belong to them and ones that can't respect their neighbor that would get straightened out or some of them would have to go for the sake of actual respectful paying clients that deserve a home. Love the videos keep making them Brandon. Especially the ones showing new buys and trailer parks and repairs.
