I don’t think Saints Row fans would go that far
Apart from the eyecancer-inducing color scheme - I cannot see any dishwasher.
Well then it’s definitely a deal breaker 😂
(Are dishwashers that common in the states? I’ve lived in 16 houses and never had one, when friends get them installed it’s a celebration, they’re dishwasher owning kind of people now, fancy)
They’re only useful for parties imo. Otherwise you put your spatula (or whatever) in the dishwasher and have to wait all week for the dishwasher to fill up with all the other dirty dishes just so you can have your clean spatula back. But yes in the US they are in every kitchen.
How big is your dishwasher? I live in a three person household and the machine runs once every day on average.
I like mini dishwashers, since its generally only one days worth, two st most of dishes. Rinse, put in washer, done and ready to go by the next day!
Why not just handwash the dishes you might ask? Because my roommate will openly judge me!
In the Australian housing market, that would go for $1.5mil easy.
Swap the metal surfaces out for bronze / gold-color-aluminium maybe
So I’ve spent the last month looking for Houses. Nothing special, nothing extravagant. I came from a 1700sqft ranch with 3 bed, 2 full bath and a car port, small town, sold for about 215, and I got 135 take home after everything was paid off.
I had to expand my budget to 350 up here just to sniff houses that aren’t in absolute disrepair on the inside and would require 50+ in reno, are 1.5 bth, or someone watched a couple episodes of Flippers and did a shittier job of “updating” the inside by putting the same cheap shitty grey vinyl flooring in several rooms.
There was 1 house I really liked, good area, open floor plan and a great basement. Downside was all the first floor carpet needed to be tore up especially since there were large stains in one of the bedrooms and it was poorly installed so was already buckled and loose, and there were cheap vinyl tiles in the foyer and kitchen that showed their wear and had to be removed. Just under 1700sq ft listed at 340 and went over asking the day it hit the market.
Another house, looked move in ready. 1500sq ft, with a half finished basement. Went to look at it…the house is claustrophobic, and the carpet needs to be pulled up also because of the terrible condition. The owners “finished” the basement by putting large vinyl tiles down themselves…which have already buckled and are about an inch off the ground in several places. They have a back patio which is about big enough for a Weber kettle grill and a camp chair. They’re asking 336, claimed they already had an offer when I was looking at it but I noped outta that shit. That was a week ago and it’s still on the market so either they were using BS tactics or the “offer” was for what the house was actually worth and they refused it. It’s also the smallest house in a large neighborhood.
the same cheap shitty grey vinyl flooring
I have never in my life hated a house product more than this shit - and I grew up in the ‘70s surrounded by the fake wood paneling and the nasty shag carpets. I don’t even understand what that flooring is trying to emulate. No real wood is light gray and comes in 6" x 3’ planks.
I’ve been renovating a house since last year that has that shit in the living room and I’ve intentionally left it uncovered the whole time in the hopes of fucking it up so bad that I’m forced to replace it, but unfortunately it is extremely durable.
This one particularly hurt. The house was listed at 350 a couple months ago, the price was reduced 10k, then went off the market, then yesterday was relisted at like 330 and claims “brand new flooring in 3 rooms”. Someone consciously chose this to be installed, thinking it would help sell their already overpriced house.
Like, the salesperson needs to say “this flooring is popular among houses that stay listed for over 3 months and have their prices reduced around 25k”
Why did your house sell for 215?
Because that’s what houses in that area were going for on the high end. Cost of living where I am now is redonk
Who’s gonna buy it? Prince?
you might need a time machine for that
Who? The former artist formerly known as?
The cabinets aren’t so bad, paint isn’t difficult. But the floors and countertops. Oof.
See I’m the opposite. The cabinets are an absolute eyesore, but the floor looks awesome. I would love to have a floor like that
It just looks like the snuffleupagus had diarrhea around the place…
Him or a Vikings fan.
This is PhotoShopped, but…
If it were real, the problem isn’t the purple. It’s the white.
Oh shit, I forgot I had flux turned on, so I was like “that’s an old fashioned brown, but not too garish”. There’s a lot of blue in that brown…
I would like my house in dark mode please
LOL fuck flippers. Making living expensive for everyone else.
No one did this for a flip. This reads as someone who really likes purple. That floor and countertop cost extra and someone flipping wouldn’t have spent the money on that. A flip would be boring brown or gray with the cheapest materials and crappy workmanship.
Also their ‘renovations’ usually just need to be taken out or repaired to normal by the buyer as they rarely use proper licensed tradesmen, or check to see if what they’re doing is even sound for the building. I’ve seen a center brick fireplace, clearly holding up the roof, just ripped out and plastered over.
This made my European building standard brain spasm… how could one… that’s outright negligence…
It’s grape flavored.
I’m gonna tie you to the radiator Ggggrrraaape you!

I stand by that I fucking love that kitchen. Add a ton of modernist architecture that makes you think and a yard I’m allowed to grow food and replace the grass with mint and I’m in.
FYI, modernist architecture is mostly stuff from the 60’s.
Oh I know, that was the era of some architects having fun with it and trying bold things as opposed to the modern style of conformist mini mansions
am i high or are those cabinets just like really short? or does this kitchen have like 10ft high ceilings.
Only two people in this demographic:
A 71 Hemi Cuda is my dream car, but there is no way I’d have that kitchen
You have to be plumb crazy to own a real cuda, and that kitchen is a plumb crazy qualifier. Come back when you’re ready to fully commit to the complete cuda club experience. Maybe one day…
yeah this goes hard, can’t lie
15k on what exactly? They just painted the wooden doors of the old units purple.
Seems legit to me. Pretty much any kitchen reno is hard to keep under $10k. It adds up soo fast
I’m in the middle of building new cabinets for my kitchen and I was freaking out over what the wood I’m using costs (about $25 for each 8’x1’ plank) until I priced even the shittiest prebuilt cabinets at Lowe’s. Holy fuck those things are expensive, and they’re just shitty pressboard.
I see no before picture so I assume the marble flooring and countertops. Plus the mosaic backsplash tiling maybe? And it’s entirely possible those are brand new cupboards.
Not sure of that is real marble, but here’s a random PSA anyway:
Don’t put marble anywhere close to anywhere you might spill anything remotely resembling acid. You can literally etch that stuff with OJ.
Oh my god I looked more closely. I think that’s acrylic resin. Ew.
On the drugs that convinced them to do this.
I know several people who would pick this house just for the kitchen…
I’m absolutely one of them. It’s a bit wacky, but not non functionally so. My taste leans simple but bold
Is it wrong that I kinda fuck with it?
If you’re wrong I don’t want to be right
How did you get introduced to the cast of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City?
I guess I fucked one for 7 years? But she never told me she was a reality TV star!
