There is a glass fronted kitchen cabinet in the kitchen that is stuffed to the gils with what I think is red patterned china. I remember thinking they should have gotten that out of there. And that purple main bedroom has crap all over the walls.

I saw that and recognized the bakeware from QVC Temptations line. I have to fess up. I have a few soup bowls from this line. Looks like Robyn didn't stop with a few pieces.

Forgive my ignorance, but how do I see the Zillow listing? I don't follow outside sources on this show so much and if it was mentioned here I missed it. Thanks.

Hello, my name is Gram and I am a purple-aholic! I dearly love the color purple!! I have lots of purple things like cups, serving utensils, clothes towels, sheets, etc!! But that purple room is awful!!  It looks like a giant grape puked all over the place!

Yep. They still sell huge sets of "Temp-tations" dinnerware and baking dishes really cheap on QVC. And you get what you pay for, too!  The bakeware is famous for cracking apart and splitting when you use it in the oven.  I had a 9x13 roasting pan split in half as I went to put it on top of my stove, sending my roasted chicken (and all the scalding hot drippings) EVERYWHERE!   Lucky it didn't bust my glass stove top or burn the heck out of me.  After a two round cake pans both developed cracks down the middle, I did a little research and gave up using any of it in the oven and started using them to store stuff in my pantry.  

I've giggled at Robyn's red dishes for years, and actually Christine had a big set too, in black I think.  Makes sense for a giant family, I suppose.  I never had a problem with any plates or bowls.  But the bakeware is a disaster waiting to happen!  

My color was "fallfetti" in case anyone cares.  Rustygoldengreenorangebrown.  Kinda retro looking.  I gave it away when I moved recently, with the warning to never put any of it in the oven!!!

When Janelle showed off her "food" on her site, she would serve whatever she made on Temptations plates. The dishes and plates always had noticeable chips.  When I moved nothing from Temptations made the move.  I will never buy anything from Tara again.  I think all the wives had one or two (or more) sets of these dishes.  They chip and crack very easily.

She also paid no attention to what was in the background, often dirty dishes (w/different chipped patterns) from breakfast & lunch, despite the fact that all of her children were old enough to be cleaning up their messes and putting their dishes in the dishwasher or sink after every single meal or snack.

Wild speculation:

Kody and Robyn move to NC and that is where the show will go on - home base NC. The show will focus on Janelle creating a Kody-less Brown compound for her and her kids to live. K&R will be filmed for continued tension/drama and Mykelti and Tony will be the connection.

Wild speculation #2:

K&R will buy a house in UT across from Christine and David. Robyn will hang a sheer purple curtain in her bedroom and C&D will be subjected to nightly silhouettes of Robyn in her teddies.

My wild guess:  Kody and Robyn are staying in Flagstaff because the little chicken tenders would be too traumatized to move, but they need to buy a bigger house because they need more wall space for more art purchases!

*The “chicken tenders” are actually the spirit babies because little AC is almost double digits and I think Sol is almost a teen.

Which means if he starts rebelling or pushing back even slightly against Kotex, he's going to be ignored and thrown put of the house upon HS graduation. There's nothing Kotex hates more than a bio boy who won't treat him like he's King Shit.

Solomon Kody Brown was born October 26, 2011, so he will soon be 13, a teenager! Ariella Mae Brown, was born on January 10, 2016, so she is 8 going on 9.

Very sad, but likely. We’ve all seen the relationships with his sons deteriorate as they got older. Maybe not so much with Logan in terms of fights, but he seems to have distanced himself to some extent from his dad. 
 

Apparently, this happens a lot among polygamous families, where fathers perceive sons as a threat to their patriarchal rule.

I remember in the earlier shows Logan used to call Kody out often. Those were the days Kody somewhat kept his cool - at least on camera.

Clearly the nanny forgot to disassemble it and bring it in for winterizing.

Also, my favorite podcaster called Kody's bedroom "Grimace's Boom Boom Room" and I love it.

[precious pupp]

One of the poly men on Seeking Sister Wife called one of their bedrooms "the boom boom room" and pissed off one 'wife.'  These men are just horndogs, and hardly any of them are Mormons, either.  

With Grimace, it makes total sense for Robyn's "love nest."  All that purple is something I've never seen in any magazine's bedroom.  😜

[Gramto6]

I watched the SW shows last night. Kody was so different then he even smiled sweetly at the littles. Of course it was because they were still young and worshipped him. But that evil squinty snake eyes look wasn't there yet and it was refreshing. Of course Robyn was constantly turning on the water works, I think trying to make herself seem shy and modestly happy, yeah right!  I actually once did see some wetness on her cheek very early on, but I guess as time went on she dried up completely and couldn't even squeeze one out.

I’ve now come to view the state of the trampoline as a metaphor for the house itself. They’re both poorly maintained.

When we sold our parent's house it was full of collectables and other stuff.  Every closet was packed, every bed had stuff stored under it, every cupboard was full.  Over 60 years of stuff. Everyone in the family took the things they wanted, which didn't even put a dent in the amount of stuff, and then we were able to sell the house as is--including all the stuff.  You buy the house to get all the stuff.  It was a very good feeling just to walk away and let it be the buyer's problem.  Luckily the buyer really wanted the house.

[65mickey]

The price that they are asking $1,650.000 blows my mind. K&R purchased this house 5 years ago for $980,000. It doesn't look like they have done any improvements or updates. It may be a large house on expensive property but the house itself is mediocre in design and finishes.  One of the bathrooms has a purple formica countertop and another has a blue formica countertop.  There is no well and they have to get water trucked in to fill the cistern twice a month. I cannot fathom why anyone in their right mind  would spend $1,650,000 on this ugly house.

Not only is it not worth double what they paid, they apparently didn't do any maintenance like fixing leaks or taking care of the floors.  Fixing a deck and stairs is expensive.  Patching walls, repainting and updates will cost a lot.  Utilities on that house are expensive, too. Are they planning to sell "as is"?  I doubt it is worth what they paid.   I'm guessing it will sit on the market for a long time.  I wonder how much they are going to spend on their new house.  Decorating it to their "taste" will cost quite a bit, too.

Not that it matters much but they paid $890,000.

[Teafortwo]

They also borrowed at least $150K more on it after they bought it - so add that on to the mortgage debt (although it may have been a HELOC, idk). I could see them getting offers in the 1.2-1.3 M range. What a nuisance to have to have water trucked in! 

[GeeGolly]

Things like poor upkeep is a warning sign for a lot of buyers. If you can see a couple of things they start to wonder what you can't see. I hope whoever makes an offer plans on having a thorough inspection done.

Maybe its me, but if I was buying a million dollar home I'd wouldn't want to be ordering household water, although I suppose its handy during major storms.

But…..but it’s KODY BROWN’S HOUSE you’re buying!  The one and only, absolutely amazing, handsome and intelligent renowned tv celebrity! 

I’m quite positive Kody has taken that into consideration when setting the asking price.  

[ginger90]

I’m thinking they know there will not be an offer without allowances for repairs that are needed. Of course that could backfire big time, especially if the buyer wants the repairs made by Robyn and Kody prior to closing as opposed to a low offer.

I've forgotten, how close is this home to their property? If they can't drill a well here, I wonder if it will also be not possible on the property? It will be a miracle iif they ever make any money off that albatross. Another of Kody's great money making schemes.....

Yeah, probably, but we really don't know what kind of condition those homes were in. The kids were smaller and more likely to be banging into things and their parental units weren't the best at home maintenance so I'd guess they weren't that great either. But they were newer and had running water w/out trucking it in, so that for me is a big plus right there!!

I guess if you can afford a million + house, the expense of hauling in water isn't a big deal.  But the inconvenience would drive me batty.

It sort of depends on the home and the buyer. The homes in my mom's neighborhood were built in the 60's and many of them still have the original owners. So as they are aging and moving out, the hot new thing is to sell the home "as is." it saves the seller having to do anything or invest any money. The buyer gets a home in a desirable neighborhood for a lower than average price and since they have to rip everything out, they can design the interior however they like. It doesn't matter if the carpets or the hardwoods or whatever haven't been properly maintained because the new owner is just going to pull them out anyway.

If I remember correctly I read that the water tank is filled twice a month with a cost of $600 a fill up.  Water is a fluctuating commodity just like electricity and gas, the price goes up and down. I can't imagine a water bill like that.

Except that this cannot possibly be a lower price, can it?  Knowing Kootie, he is shooting for the stars on that listing probably based on "star power" and his perception that someone would find that valuable.  It will be really interesting to see how long it's on the market and at what price it sells.

According to someone who did a tour of the house, the RV is also for sale. They were told they couldn’t look inside because the realtor didn’t know if Dayton was in it. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I thought filming that tour and posting it was so out of line so I’m not taking their word for anything, just repeating what they said.

I grew up where our water was spring fed and then after the neighbor did some selective logging it would run dirty after heavy rains, then my Grandparents had a well drilled. Most of my life has been living with wells and septic so I naturally go with the ebb and flow of water conservation.

We are fortunate where our home is located, the hillside behind us produces a creek, two artesian springs and feeds our well and our closest neighbor who owns the hillside. When I see the springs (both flow through our property) dry during the summer I know to take it easy on water usage in the house. We have never run dry, but I have always been cautious.

When Kody was faffing about during the delivery of the water tank I laughed when he thought that would be big enough to potentially feed four households filled with people accustomed to piped in city water.

I'm sure its also due to the story Kody likes to tell himself that he's a smart businessman and that the house was a good investment, not an ego purchase for him and his most favored lady.

Without the helocs/extra mortgages and proper maintenance, it would have been an amazing investment. Yet, even with those taken into consideration, they’d probably still make a pretty decent return. The big question is: what’s left of that after everything else?

He’s gone through 3 “divorces” and they never come cheap as assets need to be divided and you lose out on your partners’ income. And I’m not even taking into consideration the possibility that he still owes money to Janelle and Meri for CP.

He’s had 3 kids in college recently (assuming he didn’t pay for the other kids) and that’s a small fortune in itself. Someone, or possibly both of them, seems to have a huge shopping addiction which needs to be funded. On top, we had Covid 19 a few years back which was a financial disaster for many businesses. Filming mostly came to a halt and I’m sure their other businesses suffered, just like anyone else’s.Lots of people took huge loans or burned through their financial reserve to survive that. Many still haven’t recovered. 

Based on simple reasoning/common sense, it can’t possibly look good, unless he really is making a fortune somehow. But if that truly was the case, surely they would have paid for that dangerous deck in order to keep precious Ari safe?
