One of my relatives bought their house. It look beautiful!! They technically bought the house for 1m and sold it for 1.5m. It is s huge profit, but the house was too good to not bid.
@@CC-si3cr I just said over the kitchen sink where the open shelving currently is, are you dense? Edit: they even acknowledge the kitchen is a little dark.
from where I come from, home staging is not a thing. also, you bring your own kitchen cabinets with you where either you're buying or renting a place ... this show made me realize that working at home staging is my dream job
The wine racks as you enter the door send a dubious message. Kitchen sink needs a window over it. The now-leveled entry floor is much better than the raised one. Overall much better than before. They need to employ rainwater-harvesting bioswales, reuse roof runoff as well as put in curb cuts to use stormwater runoff to reduce landscape irrigation costs as well as downstream flooding. It increases desirability among hom3bu6ers and decreases related fire dangers.
Window over the kitchen sink is a very american, Californian style that Americans love. In other countries, the kitchen sink doesn't necessary need window over the sink. Just saying.
the placement of the stove is weird because it feels like its encroaching into the living room. But since the costs dictate everything, you have what you have. But what i would do is move the dining room table next to the window where the stove is and do a bench seat against the wall. Then create a more casual family/living room where the dining room is now next to the sliding doors.
A big mirror, console table and lamp would have been nice in place of the bar at the entrance. That area isn’t in the kitchen, dining, or living rooms where someone would be opening wine.
I understand floor layouts are different for apartments, but in a freestanding house a sink should never have to face a wall. It should be under a window or in the island. That, and all the gray in this house, would make me walk out and go look at another. It's that important.
Not the biggest fan of the roofline in the front, kind of blocks window view but cant be helped. See when I look for houses i find ones that while there are 1 or 2 things id change, the rest of the house makes up for it.
The design is fine, kitchen has the weirdest layout tbh... wonder if it would be functional for the owners...not to mention those wine racks.... right in the entryway
If you had a say in it, who else would have voted to move the kitchen?? They definitely had plenty of money to do it. For a million dollar house, I wouldn't want to walk into a wine rack and kitchen. It's beautiful, but a little odd layout. Most buyers would want a window over the sink, especially if you have kids.
A privacy wall at front entry is needed in homes. Not everyone at front door needs to see the family or home layout. A little hub for a nice entry adds character and quality.
check out BARGAIN BLOCK y'all...they are my new fav flippers..they ain't about knockin down walls and high end everything, it's a nice alternative from these crazy money flips . bargain block is more the average person. these houses are for the rich
I love what you've done. I do think your profits are contributing to the ridiculous housing market prices. Of course, you aren't the only ones laughing all the way to the bank. At some point I'd hope you lowered profits just for the sake of saving the American Dream. As the higher end home prices climb so do the lower income home prices. Just saying.
Tarek + Christina were a $-making machine, it seemed. I'm sure there were things we weren't aware of. But, too bad -- wish they could have stayed married in a healthy fashion.
3 things now "out of style" according to survey of home buyers: Grey LVP floors, Open concent. and gray walls. See what it sell for in a few years. HGTV is clueless,
Sensible design has gone out the window...I walk in to see 1) a random wall with non-symmetrical switches and bathroom tiles 2) kitchen cabinets in the foyer??? 3) direct line of sight to the oven that could have your dirty pots and pans... 4) random negative space...I dont like it at all!! Sorry
I live in orange county where they do this. Its funny looking at the listings now. Tons of houses coming on the market that were bought within the last year, then put back on the market in the last couple months for $300-500k more than what they last sold for. The funny part is they all have this exact same look design style... people been watching way too much HGTV. Those homes are not selling at all by the way, they go through a few price reductions, get taken off the market, a month later put back on the market and repeat
Meh, but kudos to Tarek and Christina for raising the home pricing bar in the neighborhood. The design is weird and kind of cheap looking. In a big house like that, you shouldn’t walk right into the kitchen. I can see if you’ve only got 1,200 square feet to work with and you want an open floor plan, but the houses in this neighborhood are 2,000-3,000 square feet. The kitchen should have been moved. The whole gray and black thing is overdone. Too bad the yard is still so ugly. Yawn.
I get so many ideas for my home when I watch this show.
Christina has really good taste. Rarely are her design decisions a flop.
Love this show.
Well, they're generally the same - grey on grey tile, flooring, etc.

Might have added another window to the kitchen overlooking the sink, but other than that, fantastic redesign.
Where? Where were they gonna put another window in the kitchen and not lose storage or flow? 🤔

Over the sink. They could even have kept shelves in front of the window, but doing dishes without a window feels claustrophobic.
it looks very elegant without looking to stiff...lovely...the countertops are out this world.
It feels cool, comfortable and yes, elegant.
The way he said “Yeah” 🤣🤣🤣
Love the kitchen and finishes throughout. Great job
My most favourite house. Love the bar at the entrance. Awesome detail….Greetings from 🇨🇦
Lol. Nothing says home like alcohol.

cheap stove
@@meggtokyodelicious
It's nice to have bright light to make sure dishes are clean, as well as window to look out to curb boredom.
@@lovly2cu725
Now I have to go look.
(Looked) Yeah, it's not a feature to be showing from the door.
I probably would’ve gone with the thirty option just to have a big island

But what i would do is move the dining room table next to the window where the stove is and do a bench seat against the wall.

The bench's a bit of commitment for a house for resale, but it's a great idea for the buyer!
I love Christinas smile 😊😊😊😊
They should have kept the big shrub in the front.
I'm always amazed when I see so called pros not wearing eye protection during demo.
I loved as a couple and their show, sorry it didn't work out
Definitely 80s My ex has the same floor plan in Irvine & paid $930 in 2019. lmao
Christina loves her smile too. Glad Tarek found someone who will treat him better.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 so fun man
What about how badly Tarek treated her even on this channel!
Jeez, what is wrong with u 😒
No one knows! Stupid to speculate
I hope he got a prenup.
It turned out very nice.
A big mirror, console table and lamp would have been nice in place of the bar at the entrance. That area isn’t in the kitchen, dining, or living rooms where someone would be opening wine.
Same thoughts.
1980s sound like a lot of fun. Having a bar in the house!
Love it!
Wow good job.
Love Geoff! He should get more screen time.
Tutto bello ma x me avrei considerato una camera da letto al piano terra
I love your designs but not your choice of ranges. How about low or backless induction? We love ours.

These are old videos…
Wow. Pragtig. Love dit. ♥️♥️🇿🇦

Agreed. Sometimes they need to zsk themselves if they should...
Love the kitchen 😊
Awesome 😎
Should have moved the kitchen

I don’t like the bar at the entrance. Who wants this as a focal point?
It's defintely odd. Hopefully it's only the staging rather than their idea of a permanent feature for the entry...
No more coat closet?
They should put a window over the sink. But if a rich person buys this, they can do it themselves. What's another 5k for them?

did he mean 3 bath in the beginning
Fifty shades of grey....
It would have been much better walking in with no wall and looking at the dinning room. That stove area is so awkward. Not worth the price tag.
Christina still making fun of Tarek, his looking even better now , when he was with you Christina
He was ignorant towards Christina and he treated her like crap.
Like like like like like like
Tarek + Christina were a $-making machine, it seemed. I'm sure there were things we weren't aware of. But, too bad -- wish they could have stayed married in a healthy fashion.
Just wish everyone would quit using gray, black and white all the time. It has become boring.
There are more colors than grey, white and black
So steril looking, not cosy at all

Looks Like A Hospital Laboratory 😬
I Don't Like The Kitchen Cabinets

Disgusting how much people are willing to pay for a house I a normal neighborhood
Not installing a fridge is something you can cheap out on without making the house look unfinished….what a couple of dirtbags
