@the hockett house I agree with all the viewers' comments that this was someone's home and lifetime. It's called empathy. But, I find that most of your replies have a defensive tone. You're replies with exclamation points don't feel sincere. And your incessant whining about everything. "All this goes; I like new kitchens. We're flipping, not thrifting." Uppity much? Can't even finish watching this video with all the complaining. Rhetorically, why did you even choose this house? 💔 No need to respond to me, as I won't be reading it.
I guess I have to add my two cents; it’s not a hoarder house. I have to say that my house, my son’s houses, and none of my previous houses had a lot of lighting. You buy lamps.
People seem to think a house needs to be filled top to bottom with trash and garbage to be a hoarder house. Like the Potters House series in Curiosity Inc There’s much potential and with hard work you should make a good profit.
Well, don’t forget to subscribe so that you can see what we decided to do, even if you don’t like it 😆. We’re sharing the whole journey of flipping and renovating this house.
We actually don’t discuss the owner, just the home itself. It needs a ton of work but we are more than willing to make this house new again! Follow along to see how it turns out
We did clear two 26 foot moving trucks of stuff and over 20 contractor bags of trash before filming. And I wouldn’t call it extreme hoarding but definitely hoarding.
My mom passed 2 yrs ago . Her home was a hoarder home . I pulled out most of the valuables that I could sell on eBay then kept some of the furniture. We sold it with the leftovers
This is not a hoard the elderly person left there after their children moved on and took none of the rubbish with them, obviously they were not in good health and able to empty it themselves. Very sad that they had no support,I’m sure you toured the house and got a great price so no point whinging about the contents
That’s actually not the story of this house: we got to know the owner fairly well and did a lot to help him. We got a great price and he got a fair deal.
So jealous, I would love to do that. My friend is doing the exact same thing/same situation..the place had as much stuff as yours and I helped clear it out..then we hosted garage sales. It is really fun..a lot of work, but fun!
Oh I'm so glad I discovered your channel. As a thrifter, it would be exciting to me to buy a house that includes all the contents. We homeschooled our five kids. They are all grown and young adults now. Keep at it Mom. Cheering for you as we grow our channels. Looking forward to watching your journey. Subscribing.
You sure missed an opportunity to make money. You could have sold quite a bit of that stuff you call 'junk". People buy almost anything. I once sold a bunch of jar lids---no, no jars, just lids. An estate sale, a garage sale, ebay, many ways and it would have brought in money for the reno. The items like the cleaning products alone - people buy that stuff. Some of the furniture was vintage and some antique. You missed a chance for profit. Even those Styrofoam containers could have been sold.
Actually we helped the owner of the estate move 2 uhauls from the home before closing that we paid for ourselves. His attorney said we were angels sent to him because the owner otherwise would have lost the home. But we hope you’ll stick around for the renovation!
I think fixing up your own house and flipping a house are two totally different animals. Things will take longer than you think and cost double too! And don't paint the brick!!!!
How is it click bait when we really did buy a hoarder house? 🤔 we helped move out five 26 foot moving trucks, six 16 foot trailers and over 60 contractor bags of just trash we found in the house.
@@thehocketthomethank goodness your all young and can handle it all! Not this old lady anymore. Look forward to seeing end result and good luck! Make sure you and he take care of your backs!😉
That is not a hoarders home. That is a home that someone has lived a lifetime.
We threw away about 1000 blue styrofoam containers we found still in the bags in the attic….

Exactly. I feel like we are trying to add a whole lot of theatrics... 😏

You bought something most people wouldn’t think twice about. Do whatever you want to it. Don’t listen to the negative Nellie’s. I’m hooked! 😊😊😊
You’re going to love the next videos! We have so many fun surprises!

Thank you! Be sure and subscribe so you can see the full transformation
I hope you kept that metal doll house that was seen in the garage lower left.
We did not. I saw it, but was not interested. We just want to be house flippers, not thrifters. Thanks for the comment!
I'm almost lost for words. Hearing you calling happily we're about to paint the bricks.
Oh my word 🙄

I feel sorry for the previous owner and anyone who loves her, listening to you trashing her. Trim bushes, for Pete’s sake.

That's not really a HOARDERS house. It's cluttered, but by definition of "hoarder" this isn't one.

What a disrespectful tour of a cute home that someone built a life in. Have fun stripping it of all character.
We are having a blast ☺️

the coffee table that was there is mid century it's worth money.
The previous owner asked for it. I thought it was cool though !!
can't wait to see the saga unfold!
Well, I think I pass. Ripping out the bushes.
🤣🤣 thanks for watching the first 6 minutes

Cool!

It's true, you could make money on almost anything - but we're not interested in being thrifters.
@@thehocketthomeNot interested in making money, that is. You could have sold it all to someone who is.
We paid a crew to clear it out and they sold things they found of value 😊
Looks like a person who lived in that house for a lifetime and had no help to clean up and clear out! So sad.😊
Actually we helped the owner of the estate move 2 uhauls from the home before closing that we paid for ourselves. His attorney said we were angels sent to him because the owner otherwise would have lost the home. But we hope you’ll stick around for the renovation!
What was the most shocking part of the house?? For me it was the crazy electrical under the sink!
An inspection should have showed the “creative” wiring under the sink. Looks like a fire hazard
It is common with flips to buy it as is without an inspection. And it’s given us some great content 🤣
I think fixing up your own house and flipping a house are two totally different animals. Things will take longer than you think and cost double too! And don't paint the brick!!!!
Too late! We already did! And it’s coming next video. I hope you’ll still tune in! 🙌🏻
Clickbait!
I get why TH-camrs do this but I so fed up with it.
How is it click bait when we really did buy a hoarder house? 🤔 we helped move out five 26 foot moving trucks, six 16 foot trailers and over 60 contractor bags of just trash we found in the house.
Uhhh, I have walked into many homes like this, and walked right back out. Nope! Too hard to clean.
Just wait until you see what we do with it!!
@@thehocketthomethank goodness your all young and can handle it all! Not this old lady anymore. Look forward to seeing end result and good luck! Make sure you and he take care of your backs!😉
We have a hot tub and sauna just for that! Thanks for following along!
Both of the toy houses in the garage are worth reselling
We sold them to a group of guys who cleaned out the garage for us. I’m sure they’ll be happy about that!
I’m out.
don't paint the brick
Too late! We already did 😬😳! Tune in next video to check it out. Whether you love it or hate it, it’ll be a great video 😆
So many things to do but they decide that painting over the brick is a priority.
