Confronting Andrei Jikh
FULL TRANSCRIPT
hey everyone me kevin here and today we
are going to confront andre on his home
i'm super excited to see it andre tell
me about this place i see a lot of
military vehicles right across the
street yeah and i see a viewing deck up
there what kind of neighborhood is this
it's a really interesting neighborhood
with a lot of very interesting people
that do a lot of very interesting things
so my neighbor over here owns a rental
company where he rents military vehicles
pretty cool we have a lot of really
interesting people my neighbor next door
she's a bone doctor what do you call
that
i have no idea of that
and this guy does youtube so let's go
inside let's go let's do it this video
is brought to you by my programs on real
estate investing property management and
agent sales link down below with a
coupon code expiring october 29th
but first you have to tell us about this
because there is this metal frame here
with some soft fabric and a machine of
some sort up here
oh
my god well that does this is this is
his uh apocalypse shelter it's my iron
man thing
no way
so
we have these in uh germany you have
like a rope on the inside that you can
kind of like pull them up or you kind of
put your arm down and just kind of
slides when you want to drop them down
and they're great because they're great
for storms they're great for security
and you get different levels of light
too and the best part is in the
summertime which in vegas is imperative
is when you put those down the sun
doesn't beat on you so hard and so you
save money on running your ac that's
every window in this house has that
which i was told is extremely expensive
to do i would have never done it myself
but it's pretty cool my guess is just
this front door was probably somewhere
in the neighborhood of three to four
thousand dollars yeah but i have massive
windows in there that each one has that
window which manual or automating
automated oh my gosh i think you
probably have a hundred thousand dollars
worth of upgrades and that alone that
you probably paid 10 grand for that's
true market value that's true that's a
good deal right there i like that
already this is this is good
oh my gosh
[Applause]
this is stunning man this is so cool i
remember so i have not seen the after of
your your after videos i purposely did
not watch your after videos but i did
watch the before and i saw this exposed
yeah and i'm like i don't know andre
what are you getting yourself into this
is this is not normal
about this it isn't normal so a lot of
people look at them they're like why'd
you buy a warehouse
it's not a warehouse it's just kind of
an industrial style home and the goal of
the remodel was to make it warmer and
more homey and so we changed a lot of it
to be a little bit more traditional and
so i don't know if you guys know
restoration hardware that's like my
favorite furniture store i short that
stock
so anyway the goal was to remodel it to
look like that and so that's kind of the
result but i love the exposed ceiling uh
look because it has such high ceilings
and i love the open concept just because
it makes me feel like i have freedom to
roam around and i like that now you
wouldn't mention that this is actually
normal in the neighborhood yeah or
you're not the only one that's like this
every single house on this street has
exactly this okay okay that's better
i like that a lot that's great because
and you did make it look really nice so
did you paint the metal up here no this
is exactly that's that came with wow
okay so then it's all the other things
that you added that actually tie it in
now yes so let's get in let's get into
this so i want to know so you put on
lucha you can control all these on your
phone bluetron yeah that's really nice
okay by the way if you want to do smart
lighting lutron is the best company i'm
not sponsor we're not sponsored there's
no plugs i'm just saying lutron is the
best because it is the most stable
automated flight thing in the world 100
i've done five years ago i rewired my
entire house with this like z-wave
insteon crap yep horrible yeah these are
the way to go and something really cool
is it and i do this in rental properties
now is sometimes we'll have light
switches in really weird places
and so we'll add a lutron light switch
which has a like a five-year battery in
it uh to a different location no wires
needed right and you can switch a new
light from a different location yeah
amazing
i wish we should get sponsored
by the way this is one of my favorite
features of the house this wall this
this came like that when i bought the
house so i know this was not cheap i
don't know how much this was i was going
to ask you because this is floor to
ceiling
a lot of times when people do these
sorts of things they go up to a certain
height and they stop yeah this is floor
to ceiling that's way more square
footage and it's it's almost this entire
length here until you get to it it looks
like your family room here that's and so
this was here this was here oh my god
and i think it adds to the warmth now
the other thing we're really focused on
in the house is the kitchen so this was
the big remodel where i think i spent
probably the most amount of money here
and this was the this island this uh uh
gosh what do you call this a waterfall
of uh
calcutta
yeah so it's non-porous so if i spill
things here it'll be fine like the
coffee i spilled yeah that's fine
it's not like marble
so
i'm looking at the metal here it doesn't
look like you had to move any walls up
in the front here did you no no nothing
that's really nice so you had this as
sort of a a blank canvas yeah exactly do
whatever you wanted exactly that's
incredible and so it's all new cabinets
all new appliances everything's new
everything is new yeah the whole kitchen
was ripped out and this island was a
completely different shape oh my gosh
okay it was like this like rounded thing
and i was like let's let's make it a
right angle
yeah just make it right when you walk in
you have this whole surface like a male
cheese bed
that's awesome yeah so uh how much did
this cost you because before you say
you've got two colors you've got the the
um gray style cabinet here with the
brass hardware which is really in right
now super gorgeous but then over here
you've got that craftsman style white
and the black it's super nice you carry
the same counter the soft clothes
very nice and
this oh okay
and the subway tile even went all the
way up around your vent hood yeah
actually interestingly that vent hood
that i bought didn't go up all the way
so it was three quarters of the way and
because it was so tall they had to
custom mill that last steel piece and
they put that in there which was
unfortunately more expensive than i
liked for it to be it was like dollars
or a thousand dollars to do that just
for that upper portion just for that
upper portion which is so silly but my
favorite part i will say is do you know
what this is it's your faucet let's go
cause they plummet to hot water cool
cold from the fridge this is a pot
filler yeah that's amazing i love those
that's amazing good for you that's super
cool now how much did the pot filler
cost you alone the pot filler alone was
200 plus
that's for the faucet itself yeah yeah
well that's not bad plus around five to
eight hundred dollars i believe for the
install for the water line well i mean
if you're gonna have a kitchen like this
yeah
yeah you should so how much did this
kitchen cost you because at first of all
i want to say it's gorgeous thank you
and can you give it to me without
appliances because you got a sub zero
right there yeah and that right there is
how much i spend on the kitchen
this is true kevin's just like blaze
everything we're done
we're done
so the kitchen i want to say was about
45 000. i'm honestly impressed okay and
then appliances on top of that on
appliances i want to say another
20 000. okay okay so 65k uh and that
includes all of the stone and the
thailand yes that's nice because this
kind of countertop alone you probably
spent everything here what 12 grand just
on the countertop probably yeah probably
but this is just such an amazing piece
and it looks really good thank you it's
a really good job yeah but from the
front it looks really cool because what
we have
here is this three inch thick which
normally i believe there's
but the lip here is three and they did
this really cool thing where uh it's
called the ship lap and it's just a
fancy word for just saying like you know
just wood panels but this is a really
great way by the way to make your house
upgraded on
like not that much money it's really
chip left yeah
it just looks upgraded chip and joanna
gaines will be proud
uh this is amazing thank you really good
job so uh
did you run into any challenges in the
kitchen it looks like you've got a lot
of pantry space you got endless there is
war space one major challenge that i
came across which is when we redid the
shape of the island underneath this
there was this you see this really
really gray kind of concrete yeah they
had to diamond cut that out around the
island now i can't get it here so my
solution to that and i haven't i don't
have enough rocks yet i need to buy one
more bag but we put this little cedar
border around here because this concrete
paint is underneath this so we put this
river rock formation to cover that
concrete which is a different color than
the floor that i have and this was a
really cheap way because that diamond
cut process around this area which is so
hard to get to would be extremely
expensive so we're like let's just cover
it with something that just looks really
pretty and you went with river rocks
yeah incredible i really like i like
that a lot yeah so on top of this you're
saying with some kind of finished
concrete here yeah that they you had
them grind away so rather than like pour
over it or floor over it you're like
let's grind it down yes okay i love it
yes because it looks really good the way
you have it now so uh you actually have
another floor under this you have a
basement i do this is amazing do you
want to see upstairs or downstairs it's
like a choose your own adventure choose
your
yeah uh wow well i want to know what's
in here that's my garage and i i don't
want to show it because it's a mess
all the boxes that's what they're meant
for two-car garage there you've got your
kitchen here yeah and you have those
automated uh
yeah
things yeah
everywhere yeah awesome so we can come
in and this is our dining room right
here we don't really use this space but
i like it this is a restoration hardware
dupe chandelier from house
so this this whoa i like that because
house is way cheaper than restoration
yeah yeah so this was only i want to say
like 800 whereas restoration hardware
was like three grand oh yeah so this is
not that this is our little concrete
table wow did you like this
no we bought this yeah i say that one of
the reasons i like like if i were to
invest in restoration hardware the
reason i would is because they know how
to rip people off
so this is brilliant 800 would you call
it a restoration hardware dupe yes dude
that's brilliant there's full youtube
channels that are dedicated to showing
you where to get dupes oh my gosh that's
very smart i've studied those
i like that this is alexa oh no i'm just
kidding but she doesn't talk to me
you should build or like stick an alexa
right here that would be crazy that'd be
hilarious
all right great idea
all right so this is also a dupe from
restoration hardware and the number one
comment on my video was like where did
you get this sofa andre
and this is a cloud couch dupe so in
restoration hardware this would cost
like eighteen thousand dollars you just
wanna jump on it please do go right
there in the corner go ahead three two
one
that's amazing it's just
thank you so what honestly what i really
love when right when i come in is at
first i didn't love the metal but now
with how you've warmed it up i really
like it because it opens it up so well
yeah see on a normal traditional home i
feel like you'd have to remove walls to
get this kind of open feeling right and
it'd be a disaster uh how was dealing
with the city or did you have to we
didn't have to no there was no permanent
request see
[Music]
anyway that's what this looks like this
whole entire wall at night we have movie
nights so this whole entire wall is a
projector and this bose speaker sound
system came with the house which was
awesome it didn't change anything this
is as it came
and you had a prior owner who spent
money like crazy we had which is so
great we had two private owners that
dropped insane amounts of money on this
house one of the guys that used to live
here the guy before i bought from him
was i don't want to say his name but
he's a very famous host for a ghost
hunter series
he used to live here and he decked out
this house and he added this wall and
like just a ton of stuff see like that's
one of the people you want to buy at
home from is not the do-it-yourselfer
but the guy who's got so much money that
they will spend a ridiculous amount of
money to have something perfect right if
you see those shutters coming it's like
right away that's a deal because you're
getting it for pennies right right yes i
love it yeah let's see what happens
let's go see the bedrooms real quick yes
so my girlfriend corey her dad he helped
us a lot with the house yes and one of
the things he did for us
was so this is a guest bedroom right
here you have such cool things oh
why do i not have cool things like this
look at that the original iphone this is
the iphone one oh my gosh and this is
the game boy color this is the exact one
i have game the purple one
yeah so this is awesome right here
behind us is a shared bathroom between
these two bedrooms that's did nothing to
the bathroom like nothing this is how it
came okay um
this is incredible what is this blacked
out glass
i don't know what it is it is because i
thought the tile was black and i'm like
wait a minute it's not yeah it's just
blacked out glass i've never seen that
before which is really cool because you
can't see like really the water spots
unless you get like close to it all
right like that's usually why people
don't like glass this is cool like a
white kid yeah so this right here is
something corey's dad did for us which
is this wall again this is the stone
wall which was this was three hundred
dollars from home depot it was about a
thousand dollars to put in here and he
cut around and he just made this
beautiful wall and also more artwork oh
my god you almost have all the iphones
yeah
yeah
five four 3g which was iphone 2 yes oh
my gosh the six
seven yeah we got the ten up there oh my
gosh yeah wait how much did those cost
you those cost 200 a piece no way yes
this looks like something that would
cost
exactly
oh man it's so easy to get a good look
for cheap
and this is these are this is a manual
one this is a rolling manual one but on
top of that we have these installed just
for privacy in case you know you just
you know you don't want to put the metal
one down but yeah that's incredible can
i do it
yeah yeah but it's pretty heavy so be
careful yeah let's give it a little
thank you from here yeah that's our oh
the old style is just kind of holding it
like this yeah oh that's amazing it's
beefy right i love it yeah
and look at i mean you are in a bunker
now yeah
a little bit of light there you go
i love it oh that's amazing
perfect very good quality yeah good job
this is our little guest bedroom so if
anybody stays here that's that's their
room and they added a closet over here
oh my gosh there's one more thing yeah
so the guy who's the host i guess he put
a not a podcast room but like a voice
i guess sound recorder for you for audio
oh my god um this just is just a room
that's completely sound proofed and
it's a tiny little closet
but it's a sound it's incredible in case
you wanna do voiceovers yeah they've
even got the threshold on the floor so
it seals nice and tight yeah it's
amazing
wow okay yeah let's keep going let's see
and then you have another guest room
over here yes so the other guest room is
exactly like that one but it's decorated
differently um my roommate lives in here
no worries
how much are you ready for can you say
it i am charging him 600 a month oh
that's awesome so that helps pay the
payment what's your payment my payment
yeah it's paid off
paid cash which was not smart but you
could always refine it but i could
always refinance later and i just i
couldn't get approved in time so i just
didn't want to deal with it and i knew i
wanted this house because i looked at
this house not like in the community but
this specific house in 2014. oh my god
and i couldn't afford it at the time
well see now you can uh when you find
out taxes you can refinance get like a
three percent right put it all in
bitcoin exactly yes yellow did you
did you do the doors uh no it came like
that these are incredible doors for them
coming this way and so you would imagine
just in the heart we just did the
hardware yeah
it's just an easy easy upgrade yeah
that's amazing i do that in every rental
property new hardware simple yeah this
is very nice let's go upstairs let's do
it all right
so the rail was here and it kind of goes
with
the the industrial yeah
i had somebody reach out to me and say
andre you need to complete the look and
change the railing and i gave him some
examples but he he was just a metal
worker and i didn't want to change the
metal look because i don't want to make
it look more industrial right i like a
wood warm color and just a warm tone and
right now the white kind of blends in it
just i don't really notice it it
disappears it's good yeah it's perfect
so
metal staircase this is cool
i have i don't know that i've seen a
metal staircase inside of a home but it
works it comes wow
this is insane
i'm just blown away
like there's so much space yeah and it's
all open that's see whoever designed
these was brilliant because they really
just carried the weight of these
properties from the front to the back to
where inside you could just have
whatever right it was just a blank
canvas and so we changed the floors so
this is lvt so
it's gory so this is luxury vinyl tile
so this is also waterproof
um and it's like nine inch wide this i
love this color it's very warm it's very
very good color beachy vibe this is
exactly what i would use i love this
good
good super cool nice yeah and so
this is the master yes no this is a den
this is our denim hangout area
so when we bought the house this whole
wall was not here so that's what we
created so this wall right here this
railing went all the way through and it
was like a right angle okay so we added
this wall this wall and this entire
aluminum
it's called critter style divider how
much did this this was very expensive
yeah because these doors alone
look like i would guess just these two
doors not even the whole frame
these are probably at least six to seven
thousand dollar doors
uh this whole frame
twenty twenty five so that the whole
plus then you gotta build it out too
what do you call that the the anyway
that stuff your headers up here yeah
yeah because they came through so we had
to put something solid there to
soundproof that
so and to mount the the divider on so
this cost 24 000. oh i was close
oh dang
that's amazing very very nice
so then this is also uh is it a dual
pane no it's it's a single i don't know
that you needed a really a jewel but
this is but it it's on a i guess a
little
soft closed so it doesn't need to really
be a double painted thing
it's
and then you have a curtain this is sort
of just the aesthetic on the side well
we wanted some privacy right so this is
the uh owner's bedroom right here and
this is what we did oh my goodness so
this this is a king-sized bed it doesn't
look like it corey and i was so large it
wasn't corey and i lived on a queen-size
bed for years for over six years and
then we saw this bed it was like but
that's a queen and it's not it's a
king-sized bed but you can't tell in
this room because this room is so big we
have the same headboard do it really
yeah
wow
in fact when i got my hair dyed i was i
was
caught myself leaning up against it i'm
like i'm gonna turn it green oh no
great minds think like me yeah
this is uh this is a chandelier from
wayfair for a hundred dollars
no way with the led spirals too yeah i
don't believe you how do you find these
things very the best it's amazing good
job lauren does furniture i don't do any
of that
yeah target way fair these are great
places yeah it's the best way fair stock
that whole set of furniture that was
under a thousand dollars from target
target's so good people don't
underestimate how good target furniture
is amazing yes
i'm glad you're shopping there yeah i
was worried you're like every piece was
gonna be illustration hardware no no
this is cause studio mcgee collection
it's amazing it's so good yeah wow so
how long do you plan to live here
because you've really made this perfect
well for me yeah i did uh i don't know
for the first time
yeah this is i love it but so this is i
think the best part of this room is this
wow the bathroom right here so that's
this is awesome yeah this is the buckley
design as well we got the river rock
here the tub is in the shower yeah in
the glass so the most expensive part the
most expensive was this pane of glass
right here but yeah it's a single piece
they weren't sure if they could even get
this inside the house just because of
how big this glass is it's
like do you want two panes of glass or
one and i think they would have had the
line yeah but then the line i was like
no i'm gonna splurge on a single right
here okay i gotta know this pane of
glass i mean four grand no more no way
double that oh my god that's nine nine
grand for the nonsense for this painted
glass yeah just to not have the line
just to not have that life let's go
dumb money no i'm sorry so but this is
genius that you have this i i really
actually like the tub in here because
most people have the tub separate and
they never use the tub right but now
it's just like we use it every day as
well because you could just do both it's
like you're in your steam room well
what's nice is you know how sometimes
you get in the bathtub and you kind of
feel dirty it's a shower first but you
have to get out and fill the tub and
this way you could just rinse off and
then just use it and it's and we use it
every day
that's incredible so are there uh drains
there must be drains under here as well
yes so you could like have squirt fights
of yeah shower and lash around and do
anything yeah
this is very cool yeah uh i don't know
if that one little exhaust there is
gonna cut it for how streamy this
probably gets actually it doesn't get
steamy at all it's just so long it's
just because it's so open yeah wow
that's true i mean this is the size of a
bed this is the size of my office
yes it is it is been in it
where kevin films is that size i'm not
exaggerating
oh yeah gosh well i i feel horrible
about myself now so if that was nine
grand for the pain of glass this entire
uh
set up here must have been uh 30 35 20.
what how if you spent nine on that piece
of glass there's no way the shower pan
it was about 20 to 25 i don't know off
the top
25. wow
i'm just really impressed it's expensive
because it looks way more but tell me
this
the value that you get for the house and
where you should spend the most money on
a remodel is the kitchen and the basket
the bathroom right
and the bed it's once you get past paint
and carpet
but primary bedroom yes yes it is where
you get most of the return which i'm not
saying i'm gonna get a return on this
but so
what did you pay for it for what the
house entirely yes seven hundred thirty
thousand seven thirty and how much did
you spend in total for the remodel yes
one fifty one that's not bad that's
under a million this whole thing for the
amount of beautiful things that y'all
have done yeah it feels way more custom
for sure now how much time did it take
y'all to plan this because there's some
really good detail that went into this
we bought this in february thinking that
we would be ready to move in by
april okay and we didn't move in until
last month whoa
okay so it took four or five months for
us to finish this and it's because of
code supply chain issues everyone was ah
just it wasn't getting done i mean
honestly not that horrible uh i mean
just you you're four or five months i
mean some people get caught up in
permits longer than that right they're
sitting on paperwork i will say i
learned so much as far as dealing with
contractors and that business is so
sketchy oh poor because
the contractor that i was paying
wasn't paying his subcontractors oh my
god and they wouldn't come in and they
wouldn't do anything and so what i
learned is i should pay the
subcontractors directly and give the
contractor his fee at the end
and not let him be the money juggler
because contractors as you know they
just juggle money from house to house
sure and sometimes they end up short and
so you end up suffering
well what you have in california just
show how litigious things have gotten
for this is they will actually uh make
the any sub who walks into the house
sign a lien release
saying that they've been paid by the
contractor before they can even get work
so that way the sub can't lean up your
place right because if the sub doesn't
get paid by your contractor it's not
their problem it's your problem because
they can lean up your house exactly it's
called a mechanics lien
it sucks but you got through it i got
through it okay i'm sorry to deal with
the stress of that guy
but anyway so they come on in and this
is the closet here which is actually
bigger than any of the guest bedrooms
we don't need it to be that size don't
tell anyone it just is that big but this
is the closet right here
this is definitely two of my studios
this is two of yeah kevin's studios
i'm just blown away i mean the
functionality of your house is is
this is 10x what i was expecting right
because i think you got so much value
out of the things the decisions you made
you spend money like you said kitchen's
bath but you saved money where you
should on light fixtures and furniture
and i imagine rugs or other things
because you shopped well right so what
got like
how did you know where to shop just
youtube yeah oh my gosh there are
incredible youtubers who do restoration
hardware dupes design and i i kid you
not watch those youtubers for a month
wow like just i did homework and i just
became a designer and i was like okay i
kind of get the language
of contrast of design of staging of all
this stuff and
it's not that difficult to recreate did
you do it or a quarry or together i was
kind of running all the decisions by
cory i was like corey what do you think
about this and she would say i like this
but mostly it was just me
obsessing
dozens of hours on youtube that's
incredible see that's a lot of people
they they talk smack about youtube
before they actually use it right you
know but like
youtube is so incredible the stuff that
you can learn the perspective you can
get so good job man yeah so we put a
door right here on the closet so because
it's kind of a long walk to go all the
way around this thing was a part of the
extension of these shelves and so we
removed this middle section and we put a
door so that in case you forget
something you can just come out here and
now you're in the den
and now you can just
come here and now we can go downstairs
and now we go downstairs what's in your
vault room my vault oh that room that's
secret stuff
so this is the play area right here this
is our theater right here movie theater
for one
this is incredible okay you gotta tell
me about this this is like a
car converted to bench
yeah that's so cool so what is this
thing and where did you get
how many tens of thousands of dollars
this was 800
shut up people spend eight hundred
dollars on just a generic couch at
target yeah and you're telling me this
fancy thing here it is 800 i don't
remember the website but i could give it
to you later but it was a really cool
deal i'm just gonna sit here and do this
because it feels really cool look at
that giant bean bag though it's bigger
than grams
okay we've got the big orange one this
is like twice as big but here's what's
interesting as with many things at
andre's place
here's what's interesting the pool table
came with the house the shuffleboard
table came with the house
the tv with the audio came with the
house
um
you got so many good upgrades for
freebies yeah yeah it's incredible so by
the way this furniture out here was
supposed to be in the backyard right
here but we're remodeling the floor
oh you can ship it all out yeah we're
gonna chip it out and put some white
tile like it is upstairs which i'll show
you
but uh do you want to see this on you
have a sauna this is this is where the
podcast is going to happen in the song
in the song
inspired by the hot ones it's going to
be the
steam room with andre it's all going to
get filmed in there it's going to be
called sweat talk
every question gets hotter and hotter
turn up a degree every question yeah so
this is uh tory's dad built this for us
as well
[Music]
oh my gosh
wait so oh it's hot here yeah
actually he's actually getting gonna get
him a sauna before you came and you're
like i'm coming i was like all right
never mind
so you just keep it on
oh you just turned it on i just turned
it off when you came oh gotcha okay this
is amazing
uh cedar lined
it's beautiful yeah
so your dad out of this cory's dad did
this
yeah just like how did you think i'm
gonna add a sauna in this we had this
extras closet space which i didn't need
because there's another one like it
that's even bigger right there so let's
just put a sauna yeah let's just put a
sauna because i'm russian and i can't
help myself
there was a giant water fountain right
here which we took out i didn't need it
i just want a flat plain like just
i'm impressed man i thought i was going
to be able to get angry at you but i'm
and this you got like how much for this
traffic light
it was a lot it was 800
that's not a lot for what it is that's a
real that's a real that's what i'm
saying it's like amazing yeah like i
would expect this to be like one of
those five grand art pieces right right
no that's from a vintage shop that just
sells antiques oh my god this is an etsy
bar which i got from etsy which is the
coolest thing ever it is so cool how
much was this this was a 150 dollars
he is a good shopper that is really
impressive yeah like i'm losing my voice
over how excited i'm getting out of
these shopping deals yeah you could
create a whole channel about how you got
these deals yeah i'm really frugal when
it comes to shopping and i will which is
not cool because i probably spend more
money than it would just take me to just
work and get the extra money to buy the
real thing no but i will go obsessively
over just where can i get the ten
percent discount yeah it's it's just
it's painful to spend like why spend
four or five grand on that traffic light
if you can get it for eight right you
know like that's and that's money that
you're
it's like a few videos that you don't
have to make exactly exactly you know so
me on the other hand i gotta make six
videos a day
this this this room is a full shower
full bath so this right here is a full
bathroom nice didn't do anything here
this is how it came
so downstairs i come here in the
mornings i get ready and then i start to
shoot my videos which i shoot right here
oh my gosh what is this handle
holy smokes that is very nice my secret
bookshelf opener which came with the
house
that's another upgrade no yeah i didn't
do anything this came with a house you
see good man
oh i'm going through a charizard car on
the floor how much was the charizard
rock was a hundred dollars
hey there's a lot
that's not a lot for what it's so good
oh my gosh it's
brilliant brilliant
oh my gosh
so this is the studio wow this is where
we film
so this is your new set yeah so this is
my first set right here oh my goodness
so this is where i'll film the camera
will be right here and that's the
classic setup where you start your magic
trick where i start my magic trick right
here yep and then this right here is the
second set we're actually the third set
which i've never utilized yet i want to
utilize it i don't know how okay how
much was this this was free
yeah normally this retails for ten
thousand dollars this is the most
painful walkthrough i've ever done
because you were so good at getting
these things thank you uh like graham
can't hold a candle to you in terms of
the deals you're getting on this stuff
don't tell myself
we're putting that in the video
so this is a thing i did as a trade so
when i was broke i was a really talented
videographer and i traded services with
an artist that did this and i said hey
i'll do videos for your art i loved your
art pieces i can't afford this ten
thousand dollar table and he's like hey
i'll give it to you if you can make me a
couple videos and that's what we did
that's brilliant yeah and i just i love
it i've had this for for over 10 years
now this table wow
keep this forever this is so cool yeah
if your door is it's all made out of
wood
this is all made out of this wait the
gears everything no way the only thing
that's not are these rivets right here
the metal wow but everything else is
wood
i'm impressed
away
yeah they like twist and turn it's
pretty cool wow and so you have pokemon
oh you gotta see this if you're a
pokemon nerd oh my gosh this is a 10
base set star so this is a uh nine uh so
this is actually nine unopened ones and
they're all heavy so if you open one
guaranteed holographic card from 1998
which is pretty cool
but uh i i've we could do a whole nother
video about my pokemon collection
because you saw i just recently bought
that collection uh he opens up a kitchen
drawer which says we put our bags down
and just charizards come falling out of
the drawer like what
if you guys have a random kitchen drawer
too it's like what's in the other one if
you guys are fans of now you see me by
the way this right here is the hero card
from the second movie what that
basically the card that like
can control the world essentially so i
consulted on that movie in 2014 which
was really cool it was like the
highlight of my life then my life went
downhill after that yeah right oh my
gosh
good job man what a set wow
three sets in here no do you have air
conditioning
i don't i found something he did wrong
yes
i
but he freezes to death in my studio
it's not a studio it's just a really
large fridge
it's a really large freezer
thank you he keeps it at like i want to
say 60 right it's like 60 in there yeah
i get like sniffles in the first few
minutes of being there because it's just
so cold
but yeah that's the second set right
there and by the way cory's dad also did
this whole wall so that's one of the
things we upgraded is this wall so this
entire wall cost me two thousand dollars
oh my gosh if you paid a contract for
this it'd be like 15 grand no way
yeah it's a big they charge you that
it's a big wall yeah it wouldn't cost
them 15 grand but they charge you right
right right by the way if you're trying
to do a studio the biggest thing i found
for sound dampening because this was so
echoey yeah we put these um panels right
here because i thought that would dampen
the sound and make it not less not
echoey yeah but it was the carpet that
solved it thick pad carpet here yeah
that's amazing that that's what makes
the audio sound good it sounds excellent
and what does this fancy like lighting
charge these are called nano led lights
so i really like them so you can puzzle
them together yeah any shape you want oh
my gosh how much are they they're kind
of expensive i want to say they're like
150
dollars for that wow okay that's
expensive for like for what it is that's
expensive but for the little but it's a
write-off it's a studio it's part of my
business so it just looks i mean this
whole property is your studio yeah
i'm actually expensing most of it you
should i mean the amount of tours and
videos you've made out of it absolutely
it makes sense absolutely yeah so uh
that set is for
just like so sometimes you're there yeah
so i will shoot half my videos here and
the other half right here next to these
shoes yeah and what's really cool is
because i'm here and there's no natural
light i solved it with a magic trick
because
this right here
does not work wait let me plug it in
yeah always plug it in first
all right so check this out
so this is bouncing off of that mirror
through here to create an artificial
window so when i'm sitting
it looks like i've got sunlight and it
just looks really nice because when i
turn the rest of the lights on it just
give me some hair light
let's see
all right well that's not working right
now when i needed to anyway got some
hair light got my camera and it just
looks really nice with the with the
window light you and you have this
incredible rack here that is holding a
mirror
oh my gosh it's a mirror
it is really in here so one key lighting
technique is just to reflect light off
of shiny surfaces because that's what
sunlight does in natural light it
reflects off of surfaces
anyway it's a cool little great job yeah
very cool okay so what did i miss
because you i mean with the exception of
these shoes what's the story with these
shoes oh i was given these from somebody
who owns a shoe shop and they were like
hey could you just give me a shout out
and this is from the back to the future
oh my gosh
i'm just embarrassed this is so nice and
then you just got this i did no i had
this i bought this originally for two
grand and i think at the peak they were
like selling for like eight i think
graham bought his for like four he
copied me i was first oh that this is
what graham has in the hallway oh but
you also just bought a big pack yes so i
have like a whole crazy set there so you
have more that's another video that's my
alternative investment yellow thing
which could be a separate video that's
amazing yeah and this by the way i put
here just to cover my electric fuse box
because oh smart i just don't like that
look and this is
what that hinge in that's brilliant
where's that
yeah she's good
he's good wow
i mean most people would just put a hook
there right he also
he also did one more thing
i haven't shown yeah outside outside the
sauna showed it oh yeah oh you did yeah
so nice it looks professionally done
everything what did he do for a living
he he was a handyman he's a real estate

the only thing i'll say i splurged in
here that was not smart purchase was
this kind of centerpiece here which was
by an artist oh my god and it kind of
like
it just
it's a halo light and it's a little art
piece that i probably spent more money
than i should have but it's going to end
up being like 150 dollars
this was three grand okay so there's one
thing in your house that you spend a lot
of yeah relative yeah oh my gosh uh okay
what if i missed because this is so
impressive i think you've done a
phenomenal job i actually think for 150
grand you did a three to four hundred
thousand dollar renovation really
renovation and staging job combined if
you hired a designer to do this
400k wow good job oh thank you
appreciate it yeah that's there is
there are parts of this house that have
secret doors and rooms that i haven't
shown that i don't want shown because
it's like my secret area wow there are
no more secrets so you i mean because
you showed me a secret sound booth a
secret sauna a secret library yeah and
now you're telling me there are even
more secrets there are more wow
oh yeah okay
all right let's do it
all right so we're here in the backyard
and i see these massive motors on these
windows for these huge windows here both
up and down yeah including this little
door you weren't kidding that every
single thing
it's crazy i'm blown away i mean that
that alone makes this like an under
market deal yeah this is so incredible
so this is what we switched right here
this was kind of old if you look down i
don't know if you can pan down or not
but there's this stone that that's what
was here which we changed which we're
changing down there as well this is
actually porcelain
and it's probably the most expensive
thing in this backyard including that
cedar back wall right there
this accent wall
this is gorgeous and nobody's got to
come mow back here because you've got
the
grass it's smart here in vegas you've
got it you see it just gets hotter it
gets so hot everything dies yeah so this
is nice and we added these little
squares here which i think look cool
absolutely yeah beautiful this is really
and you've got the led lights over here
yeah we got a little distro lights at
night we got the little u-pines right
there on the side and we got lemon trees
right there
two lemon trees and i think this is the
coolest part is like this cedar back it
is it takes away that because i imagine
it was this block it was that block here
yeah this really classes it up because
when you walk inside you see it you see
it from the out from the inside of the
outside and it's just like wow you get
that warmy home to grass to a nice wood
panel look yes you get that sort of
vista look through yeah
good job thank you that's the backyard
let's go downstairs
all right
