  1. If they have any more grandchildren that's a NO. And I kept wondering, what about their children? Are they only going to host the grandchildren without their parents? It just struck me as very odd unless there are more bedrooms we weren't shown. However, at the beginning the owners said 2-bedroom, 2-bath.
  2. I want a seat at Josh's table. That dinner party was so elegant, but because it's being hosted by Josh it seemed like a lot of fun as well.
  3. Watching Renovation Inc, the "dream home" has become a problem this week. It airs here on Comcast on Sunday nights and I record it in case I'm busy. Last night I was doing something else and the DVR recorded the show time and labeled it Season 5, Episode 6, Tile and Error. But when I played it back it wasn't Renovation Inc. The Comcast Guide showed Renovation Inc in the time slot, but aired Love It or List It. Apparently the same thing happened the night before when Outgrown was on the Guide, but a different show aired and the DVR recorded the wrong show. I'm so confused... has this happened anywhere else?
  4. It was on my guide to begin at 8pm Eastern and I didn't realize it wasn't on until I noticed that the DVR wasn't recording it. Thanks for solving the mystery!
  5. The house interior and back yard with new fence and pool looked nice. The original hardwood floors were stunning. With the exception of the front door, I really hated the colors chosen for the exterior. The mint green was hideous with that dark grey/blue.
  6. We owned in a home in a neighborhood with no HOA and our next door neighbor parked an old car, a trailer made out of the back end of a truck, and a small boat on the side of his house which was alongside our driveway. When we were getting ready to sell my husband asked him to remove them because they were an eyesore. He did move the junk, but never spoke to my husband again for the short time we lived there. The house sold quickly and we are happy that our present neighborhood has an HOA.
  7. I'd have a problem with that. Even though no neighbors can see in from the master bedroom side of my house my master bedroom and master bathroom have shades for a good reason and it has nothing to do with the quality of my nightclothes. Privacy in those rooms is important.
  8. Capped by her crying, Tracy's overreaction to Fredrick's text was bizarre. She certainly sends a mixed message by complaining about a sexist message while dressed in a hooker style outfit. Her clothing is getting more outrageous by the week. Who does she expect to take her seriously as an accomplished businesswoman when she's flashing cleavage and a bare midriff?
  9. Personally, I though the guy should have had Huge Loser written on his forehead.
  10. Our last house was built in the late 60s and had a master bathroom but it was small. It had toilet, vanity with one sink, a linen closet, and a combo tub/shower. The 'guest' bathroom was a bit bigger with the same features. We remodeled it and removed the linen closet in order to install a larger vanity. The bathroom linen closets were really redundant as there was also a good sized linen closet in the hallway right outside the 'guest' bathroom.
  11. It's a total PC move. I don't know anyone who doesn't call their master bedroom a master bedroom. Such drama.
  12. I no longer live in California, but could visit my brother who lives in Lake Elsinore and call Flagg to enlist his help in finding a vintage home. Of course I don't want to buy one, I just want to meet Flagg, have a three martini lunch (I'll pay) and see a few homes I can't afford. I can afford the lunch. 🤣
  13. Josh can raid my fridge and pantry any day. I'll give him the garage door and alarm codes to get in and even have the snacks he likes on hand. I'm a senior gal with cats. As long as Josh pets my cats, he's welcome any time.
  14. I adore Flagg and his husband Bobby. The rest of them I can tolerate, except Fredrick. Insufferable is an accurate description. He's also arrogant and obnoxious.
  15. It was a lovely gesture by Flagg but I think Tracy takes advantage of people. Her poor me act was so phony. She comes from big time family money and her low ball offer was insulting, particularly when she talks about all the "work" the house "needs" to suit her. If she can afford to make the changes to a perfectly lovely house, she could afford to pay the buyer's price. I hope so!
  16. Bryan and his team were on schedule and budget with the build until they were hampered by bad weather. It's Sarah and her designer that conspire to make changes and overspend who are incompetent. Sarah's arrogant attitude and whining make her unattractive and unlikeable. I mean, what mother of four thinks a wine room is more important than a pantry?
  17. I've been watching them build this "forever home" on Renovation Inc. that I understand they've now sold. What a mess. They actually lived in the old part of the house while building the addition. It's a disaster with water leaking in where roofs meet temporarily on old and new parts of the build and changes are being made everywhere. Sarah really shows her craptastic personality by insisting on a wine room where there was supposed to be a pantry. She contracts for the staircase with a company that then can't build it. She picks tile that won't be available for three months and won't select something different that is available. Her choice for stone on the outside required additional foundation work. Her drawings for a fireplace were off by a foot and it had to be taken down and rebuilt. They are using a designer, but Sarah doesn't listen to her any more than she listens to Bryan and apparently the "design budget" is totally blown away with her costly mistakes, changes, and dumb choices. I want to reach through the TV and bitch slap her for being so stubborn and obnoxious.
  18. II think she said she was a school teacher and he mumbled something that I took to be software sales. I think the husband was aware of the labor involved in maintaining so much property and he really didn't want to be responsible for more than an average yard. His princess bride probably grew up with "help" taking care of a lot of her parents' property and vineyard and she's clueless. Not likely that she'll be helpful. You're so right about wildfire possibilities in that area.
  19. Thanks for correcting me, For some reason I thought the house they bought had a hot tub. Duh! I was pretty tired while watching and didn't pay a lot of attention at the end after hearing which one they decided to buy.
  20. I'm amazed that such a young couple with rather ordinary jobs could spend more than a million dollars on a home. How are they qualifying for a mortgage? Maybe her seemingly well-to-do wine producing parents are bankrolling them by providing a hefty down payment. Interestingly, the house hunter wife got her "land" but there was no vineyard on it, which was what she kept saying she wanted. Her poor husband may never get his swimming pool until she stocks that land with goats and miniature horses. The house on the cul-de-sac with a pool that the husband really wanted would have been the most practical option for a young couple, but the way the wife acted I just knew she'd prevail. Sheesh. She was quite the Princess.
  21. If I were the homeowner I'd be seriously upset at the waste of money for that play area under the island unless I'd specifically asked for it. Located in the middle of the kitchen it seems to me that it would be dangerous for small children to be popping in and out of that space, particularly when hot meals are being prepared. The money Jasmine spent on it could have been used in other areas of the house that surely needed work.
  22. I thought it was fine. I noticed that the window behind the mirror had Roman shade that could be used to cover the window.
  23. I really enjoyed that last house with the master bedroom reno and two master baths added, but the closets were a major disappointment. Just a row of doors with hanging rods behind them and a slanted ceiling that left no room for shelves above the rods. The closets looked so narrow that I hope there is room to close the doors when garments are hung on hangers in them.
  24. It looked like it was approaching Hoarder House status.
  25. Episode tonight was refreshing change--the homeowners had a lot of input in flooring and finishes. Even though there was the dreaded banquette, it worked in their house. The bookshelves were a great improvement as was the installation of the homeowner's art, even though the art was IMHO dreadful. The shallow cabinet that hid the support column was clever and the glass installation on the stairs and landing was elegant and practical. Also clever was the style of bathroom vanity that won't be destroyed by water splashing from the tub by little boys.
