About Dude Dad:
Hi! I'm Taylor Calmus, a rural South Dakota born and Colorado-based actor/comedian. I started Dude Dad© two weeks before my son Theo was born as a way to stay creative while learning to be a father. My wife Heidi and I now have 4 kids and over 500+ videos. We also have a TV show on the Magnolia Network called Super Dad. My purpose for the channel is to entertain, enlighten and inspire.

Well done. You should do a 'Buying a house in Colorado' video, it'd be the complete opposite. Haha
I really enjoyed meeting this lovely couple. I hope we get to know them better.
Yes, please ~ more Steve and Stacy!
Please, MOAR!!
I think I might have a crush on Stacy...
& Steve, mostly because of the stach.
They GOTTA do a 2020's version lmao "Ken is a software engineer, and Melinda is an onlyfans model, their budget is $1,900,000" They Walk into a glued together 2 bedroom 1.5 bath in Silicon Valley xD
the Babylon b did one called tent hunters funny watch
Ken can do better
I thought the video had a second part making such comparison. LOL
You forgot to mention the schizophrenic drug addicts camping in the back yard
@@musicuser9967 Ironically they are only illegal if they pay you rent.
This is spot on, my parents had regular jobs, together they made no more than $15 an hour and could afford a brand new starter house. Raise three kids, had a new Jeep and my dad had an older corvette. You could never do that today even with good paying jobs.
My mom had a house built for her AND bought a new car and she only made $9.65/hr.
It didn't just happen. It was done to us intentionally.
It would be nice if it was ok to not have a high salary career job and be able to afford all the basic things a person needs to live again!!! 😣
@@yeralmuzika Sadly, it'll never be that way again.
The American dream is dead unfortunately :(
In the early 80s my wife and I bought a house that needed work but paid only $15,000. After six weeks of working on it and a couple hundred dollars spent we moved in. On the flip side, I was barely clearing $10,000/year but my wife had gone back to work after having our second child. Young people have it so impossibly hard these days. Can't believe we thought we were struggling.
That would be like making 100,000 and buying a house for 150,000. If only 😢.
Even then I knew I had it good. @@nfaller89
Blame the Fed, inflation steals you money.@@nfaller89
My old man thought I was making unfair amount of money when I told him I was making 40k/month (in my country's currency). He said he started at only 15k, then he's mad because with the money I make, I can't start making my own life like buying a house and a car.
Tbh, I started at 8000/month 10 years ago and been climbing ever since.
To comfortably starts a family I need to make at-lease 100k/month and still have to worry about my children education fund.
Thank you for being honest and sharing your empathy. Most Boomers laugh after us 😢
I'm rolling over the subtle delivery of the line "as soon as you come in Stacie, you have the choice, straight to the laundry or straight to the kitchen"
When women were women
Totally kidding 😂
Now look at the state of women. Sheeesh.
Hahhahahahahhahahhaaaaa!!!!! OMG, I would've missed that line if you hadn't pointed it out. SOooooooooo funny! Hahahahhahaahaaa
@@Ownyx no need to kid... your statement is true
Ya, I caught that too and almost spit my coffee all over the kitchen.
Glad Stacy was able to give us a proper explanation as to why 90’s homes have so many walls 🤣
A little division... brings ya a little closer together
Looks more like a ~ ‘60s home to me. Ranch style homes were most popular in the ‘40s-‘70s. My parents bought their 1944 ranch style home in California in 1986 for 130K. It had a lot of walls, trim and paneling 😆
@@leilap2495pfftt. My parents bought their 3 bedroom ranch in NH in 1973 for $19k. Lol
@@leilap2495 I think you missed the joke. It wasn't a 90's home. The story the video is telling is that it was an older home bought in the 90's and had repairs done to look like a 90's home. It was explaining why 90's styled home were they way the were/are.
@@JohnsonJLB and I can point out that the home aesthetic was also influenced by the homes available on the market then. I agree that the ‘90s brought more ugh to an even yuckier ‘80s aesthetic. I recall my parents even had the ceilings popcorned in the ‘90s, mostly to cover up the imperfections in the ceiling.
Love the Circuit City reference! Very 90s, as well as the overall reality of being able to buy a home on a humble retail career income! A relic of the past!
Circuit City was THE SPOT
Right!? I wish. The market is BS right now.
Same here. Popcorn ceilings, spindles and buying a home on a small income. I only miss one of those things.
I was more of a radio shack guy myself. Smaller, more intimate.
And probably right next to the Blockbuster.
1970's - a mechanic with a stay-at-home spouse and 6 kids can afford a large house with a nice big garden.
Today - a doctor marries a lawyer, have no kids and they can barely afford a studio apartment.
You mean rent? 😂 (crying silently)
100% that’s my husband and I and our boomer parents don’t believe it! Lol
I know. I was laughing but it’s a bit frustrating.
@@kristina-oy3zs Your boomer parents probably maintained a budget and lived within their means.
The American (Western) dream is over. Now you cannot buy a decent home for decent money. And governments wonder why people don't want to have children, when couples can barely pay rent for a studio apartment with decent jobs.
My parents paid $45,000 for their house almost 30 years ago. It is two stories and has two complete bathrooms, a huge basement, a garage, a large yard, closed in porch, four bedrooms, a large kitchen, a computer room, laundry room, big living room, and big dining room. They refuse to believe me that they could sell that house now for over 100 grand. I keep trying to tell them that people now will pay 200 grand for half that in a house. They get offers in the mail from flippers all the time to sell, though I know they never will. But it’s insane how much more expensive everything is now compared to just 30 years ago. (And so much worse quality now too)
Is it out in the country?
Houses were going for more than that in poor areas in the early ‘90s that were one-story slabs.
Sounds more like a 500k house here in the U.S. even more if it's in NY/tri-state, Cali, Florida.
Nothing is more “expensive” you’re just financially illiterate.
That would have been in an awful area nobody wanted to live in. Normal homes were not that cheap. And your last comment about worse quality is completely 180 degrees backwards. Homes today are much nicer. Taller ceilings, bigger kitchens with better appliances, larger garages, huge walk-in closets in master bedroom, better energy efficiency, tile floors standard, etc. Homes back then sucked. Anyone who makes a comment like this does not remember the 80s and 90s homes.
@@robloxvids2233 and you've never seen Dan Ryan Homes, Ryland, Lennar, or any of the other big national builders that think poster board makes for great sheathing!
People in the 90s had no idea buying there home would be the equivalent of buying gold😂
It's kinda crazy. My friend's mom still lives in the house she and her husband bought in a Los Angeles suburb for $25,000. It's worth well north of a million now.
Land increases in value whereas gold simply maintains its value over time as a hedge against inflation. That’s why gold is technically not an investment but land is a very valuable one
Way more valuable than gold
more like buying an oil reserve
@@lunsjthe way that's worded leads me to believe there's a millionaire cougar just waiting to be freed.
Tear up the carpet and glue down the linoleum directly onto the hardware floor…😳. As someone who purchased an older home and fixed it up…this gave me the shivers….and then I laughed. 😂
Same here. We had to do a floater floor because once we pulled up the 1990s Grey blue carpet, there was 1964 original asbestos lined linoleum tiles.
..but at least there was tons of popcorn on the ceilings!
I just redid the floors in my home and between the glue and the the staples I was having flashbacks when he said that. That linoleum almost won.
Same here with the floors and worse yet it was our PARENTS who glued down linoleum on the oak hardwood!! Oh and I’ll have some butter on that popcorn ceiling please!!
Did I tell you he was good? He’s good isn’t he? 😂
Popcorn ceilings were a drywalling trick popularized by builders in early 1960s. Most houses had it.
My room growing up was a 1965 addition to a 1942 bungalow. The new part had blown popcorn. The old part had rolled texture real plaster.
Scratch swirl texture was popular with bad builders in the 90s. I preferred flat ceilings with properly done joints. You cannot paint popcorn successfully.
Growing up in the 80s and early 90s was priceless. It bums me to think that my kids will never experience that.
Yes instead your kids will have to dodge a technology/social media addiction if they have any hope of making it to adulthood intact.
Why did you not preserve that for us?
@@fontunetheteller410 greed, pure greed. Our parents generation fucked us and they aren't even self aware enough to realize it. Instead you'll hear them complaining about how it's all our generation's fault and we all suck.
@@ShaunAnderson_Sauce the only jobs we can get are in the service sector where we have to put up with Karen's bullshit.
You ruined everything
As a demo/re-mod guy, this is hilarious. It explains why so many dumb renovations were made. (Like permanently destroying hardwood floors for linoleum.)
The scenario they laid out sent me into a fit of rage
@@Radi0he4d1 there's no shame in talking to a counselor. I do.
@@binaryglitch64 I’m overdramatizing 😂
@@Radi0he4d1 I figured, was just makin' sure.
I let out a pained wheeze when he said “glue linoleum directly onto the hardwood”
They just forgot to mention the other key selling point of the house.. it's close proximity to Blockbuster and Radio Shack!! 😂🤣😆😄
There's probably a Dairy Queen in town too
@@DudeDadThe one with the St. Cloud Superman?
And a school
He works for Circuit City you heathen!
Oh, you've gotta be within walking distance of a video store. Maybe not Blockbuster, but you've got Hollywood Video, sure. Or maybe even one of the smaller guys. Those mom-and-pop video stores sure do add value!
As someone who's been remodeling their house the past few years some parts of these really hit me hard....especially the linoleum glued to hardwood and when you finally get that shit pulled up you see that these random walls you hate were literally just plopped there and framed in over the hardwood because someone wanted it there. I got way too angry during parts of this haha.
Omg same deal w our house
The previous owners were actively malicious and are actually laughing at your suffering right now. All those nails that your pulling out? They had your name on it going in. The glue smeared everywhere? That's cause you suck and need to learn a lesson. Get used to it, they hate you
I feel this comment in my bones
Ditto! So triggered! Also, in my case someone wanted to make 2 small rooms into a big room and didn't support the ceiling properly so it started bowing... That was fun to fix..
I see you have walked the scorched and sticky path of flying direct to hardwood and then trying to remove that linoleum.
House I grew up in was about 120 yr old, hard ass old Oak flooring, thick bastarding oak planks too.
There was subflooring screwed and nailed and glued to boot. There was then linoleum, with carpet over that, then more subfloor.
It was like looking at a project that never ended.
Alas, everything I Learned about project planning and marriage counseling and contracting work I learned from the ages of 12 to 19, cuZ ya damn sure know that wasn't the only holy shit show hidden in the depths of that house.
Yanking nails and staples by hand only to perpetually find more stabby ass foot perforators.
The absolute purgatory......
Sure did look nice, y'know, 7 years later after the house was liquidated during the parents divorce.
Ahhhhhhhhh memories, lmao
Ok, I grew up in St. Cloud and basically lived in a house like that 😂
And yes, the wood paneling in the basement went all the way to the ceiling.
30 years later, Gavin is a floor manager of Best Buy and can barely afford a one bedroom apartment.
😂😂😂
*lives inside a van
@@mikesantos011not his own van
I swear I feel like the 90s weren't that long ago. It was 1999 and in a blink, 20+ years passed. I still have things that need to get done from that time.
lol I still have things I need to get done , that's so true , the photos from the disposable camera never got into the album.. for one thing
We will never get everything done. A lifetime is not enough.
yeah me too, I still havent re-scanned my analog TV for new channels back in 1990s...
I have been migrating to digital TV for more than a decade now.
@@ApartmentC6I graduated high school in 02, but I still have things from the 90’s that I need to get done.
I still need to rewind that tape and take it back to blockbuster 😂
The "pager" killed me. Wait is that a garage door opener?
you know it LOL
Almost as good as the car phone! 😂
This really is closer to Buying a House in the 1970s (or maybe 1980s)
That’s what I thought too! Popcorn ceiling was 70s. We hated popcorn by the 90s. Also houses were in the 100,000 range by 90s and open floor plans were gaining popularity. Now if they had done vaulted 13 foot ceilings, that would’ve been 90s
I still have popcorn ceilings
@theorderofthepurplephoenix3321 I don't think I've ever lived somewhere that doesn't lol.
Yep, my mom bought a pretty cheap house in the early 90's and it was just over 100k.
The house in the video definitely had 70's/80's decor - the 90's was more about bright white appliances, and there was already a move beginning towards the open floor plans. That carpet was definitely not something that would have been popular with new builds or renos in the 90's
Yes! Not to mention the Beanie Babies references put this late 90s, which really doesn’t fit at all.
hurts so much having grown up in the 90s : we will never get to this level, feels we failed miserably
Love how these two are still very much dating, enjoying life together and how much they entertain us.
Definitely soulmates
Hahahahaha DATING
@@DudeDad🥰🥰✨💙💛✨🥰🥰
@jaceysantos8177 not sure what's so funny with still "dating" each other, I find it very important while being married. Keeps things fresh and very much alive, not routine. It's a figure of speech
@@twistedtea5930 - No no no… it’s in no way a figure of speech. It’s an *action.* 😉👍
LOVE itself is an action, a commitment, a conscious choice to put your loved one (and your marriage) above yourself and *your* wants… and one way we show romance to our beloved is through spending one on one time with them: better known as DATING.
“Dating” can be a relationship title, but deciding to marry doesn’t mean the action of dating eachother should stop.
Married ~14yrs here… I say it’s a NECESSITY. ✊🧡
This one has me at “45,000 budget”, that same home today is 450,000 or more. Ah the days when a married couple could afford to buy a home
What do you mean when?
@@jsebby2284 You see young one. Normal people used to be able to afford a house.
@@arkad6329 normal people can still buy houses
I legit thought that was a 10% deposit. Absolutely insane that housing has been screwed so much in so little time
@@jsebby2284may have been before your time. Don't worry about it
Man this makes me miss the 90s. Such a simple time and people were much less materialistic.
I laughed. I cried. I loved it and hated it. Humorous memories and present pain. There was even romance. Everything you could ask for in a house hunters episode.
I can't believe you found a house that still looks like this 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Really takes me back to my childhood.
100% this belonged to a retired couple.
That’s what I was thinking! I wonder if they came across this house on Zillow and it inspired this whole sketch?
Huge lol with the popcorn ceilings… us kids used to hit balloons up into our basement “popcorned” ceilings to get them to pop! 🤣🤣🤣 (the balloons to pop, not the ceilings lol)
Yes it was my grandmother's house. She died in June. We loved this house. Our family hates the way the home is mocked.
@@shellyemsRiiiiiiight
Some old couple that lived there for 30 years. Original...EVERYTHING. Basically a collectors item
Heidi does a great Minnesotan accent! And the snickerdoodle salad, NAILED IT!
It's the North Dakota coming out
I'm from Duluth MN and I fully agree!😂
What is a snickerdoodle salad?
@@Joy21090 I'm wondering the same thing?! Totally sounds like something I need to make and take to the next church potluck. LOL
@@Joy21090 I think B. Dylan Hollis made something like it once - it's a dessert salad of chopped snickers, some kind of fruit (I've seen granny smith apples and mandarin oranges) and whipped cream! I'm probably forgetting some ingredients but that's the gist of it. Our grocery stores up here have cookie salad, which is the same thing except with fudge stripe cookies instead of snickers. Absolutely no "salad" involved!
3:44 I had a visceral reaction when it turned from a nostalgic 90's house into the literal backrooms
That thing about gluing linoleum to the hardwood, and "it will NEVER come off!", so funny
The best part is one day their grandkids will look back and see how much fun their grandparents had together. Priceless.
They’ll never have grandkids. Their children can’t afford a 650k house 🤷♂️. Their children will never procreate unless home prices drop meaning the 90s boomers wouldn’t get grandkids
No..there grandchildren will be gone because they had poor grandparents
If she had a clue no one is having kids, this would be the cuelist troll comment ever.
We bought a house in 1994 - $195k (SF Bay Area) and I was working as a clerk at a hospital and my wife worked at a bank. Still in the same house.
Add 1 million to your buying price and that's probably what's worth today.
@@muziklvr7776 You are close - I could probably get $1.3 mil for my house today. But then where do I go? It snows/tornado/hurricanes/hot/humid everywhere else.
The best time to have bought a house as a older millennial was 2011. The market was recovering from the house bubble and reached the peak bottom where I live. You could buy a renovated 4 bedroom bouse with yard and garage in a nice suburb for $250K. Same house today is going for $600K.
Indeed! Some friends of mine were renting a 1 BR and ended up buying a 4 BR in 2009 freshly built colonial since it cost less than renting. Homeowners and builders were practically giving away.
You could have bought a home at a good deal in the 90s, but it didn’t matter since you couldn’t sell it after the crash no matter what it theoretically appreciated to. Especially if you lost your job, and many people did around the same time.
But if you bought one in the early teens you’ve made out like a bandit.
Gosh dang, the request for the popcorn ceiling, electric stove, wall to wall carpet, wood paneling, all the nightmares of today’s houses haha
The 90s house was so spot on I don't know how you found it! I lost it with the hands in each other's back pockets!
As someone who feels like they are eeffectively priced out of the housing market at the moment, I can confirm this is hilarious and enfuriating at the same time.
More infuriating than entertaining but that's no fault of the youtuber.
well if you pragmatically aren't priced out now, you will be within another interest rate hike or two.
Kill the REIT, regulate the shit out of AirBnB, and stop foreign investors from buying residential real estate and most of your problems will go away.
@@chancepaladininterest rates are still low historically
Shame on Biden…. Shame shame shame
Dont forget the 15% APR in the 90's. People dont remember/know that when houses were "cheap" you usually paid triple after considering interest.
The average home price 90s $151,200
@15% is $924 per month
Average home price 2024 $402,000
@7.594% is $2837 per month
Aja not only having a decent home for a decent price i also enjoy the innocent chemistry between them. Thats just as hard to find ❤
Those dual sided cabinets are always the 1st thing to go in the post 2005 renovation shows 😂 The background music, the clothes, the video snapshots of the perfect relationship is so spot on. Classic vintage house hunters parody.
Or, in a modern house hunting show, will literally be the make or break. Rather than wall up one side, they'll pass on the house entirely.
I'd never seen them before! And here I was, thinking "oh this is just the perfect thing for my ADHD, makes it so easy!" 😂
As a person who is in the middle of renovating a house the moment they talked about gluing linoleum directly to the floor scent chills down my spine and made my eye twitch lol
someone finally did a good job with amplifying a Minnesotan accent without going full on fargo with it. Good job
To bad it was Canadian, on the shutters you see Maple Tree leafs.
@@travisschneider3011 this is Minnesota. The youtubers are from there or Wisconsin i think. As much as it pains me to say it considering i lived in Minnesota for almost 20 years the Canadian accent and Minnesotan accent are very similar.
Them trying to get over the threshold at the end....just too cute! And all the giggling! 😍🤣🤣
I died laughing when I saw the carpet. That was straight up what we had. Add the corner hutch, windows you rolled out with a handle, and the linoleum, and it starts to smell like nostalgia.
And that it will never go out of style 😂
The whispering "Steven" is what got me laughing. It's so spot on.
Only a couple decades ago, ppl prized modesty & privacy
The $600,000 house we bought last year sold in 2003 for $110,000. FML
4:43 love the random inclusion of their baby 😂❤
I enjoyed watching this while sitting in my split level home that we bought in 1993 for $66,500😂
I bet it was $67,000 asking price. You got yourself a good deal there!
@@CheeeesemanI’m happy for you and all but the only thing worse than an open concept, in my opinion, is a split level layout lol.
So the price of a new car these days, gotcha lol
Wow, the average house is 10x that price where I live right now. That’s AVERAGE. Many houses are a million+ for no good reason.
Even adjusting for inflation that's still only 140k which is literally half as much as anything now.
What an amazing piece of art you just did ! I love the subtile humour with the so loved designs in the 90's that are now so hated haha! We need an update on this couple and their house ! Like theire adolescent kid life with them older in a new 00's house and then another video of them retiring and selling this 00's house for 10x more than what they paid !
ART! One of our favorite videos that we've made so far, stoked yall like it!
Tim was definitely telling his boss how stupid these customers were 😂
😂 I feel like this was a combination of decades. I feel like the house was like 70s or 80s, the modesty, popcorn ceilings, the gold carpet, linoleum, paneling, then some 90s peppered in (phone, pager, trolls, beanie babies, Circuit City).
It was definitely a 70s house. The video is about buying a home in the 90s, not buying a new home in the 90s.
Just to add, my husband and I bought our 70s house in 1996. It was $90,000, though, not $45,000, in a small Iowa town. 844 square feet, $90,000.
Well there wasn't internet, so fads lasted much longer😅
@@edennis8578yeah they’re mocking you guys because 96k is still nothing to buy a home. Even inflation calculator adjusted it’s still affordable which is why they’re mocking boomers with this video
Their styles were definitely early 80s. Large eyeglasses were way out of style for women in the 90s and very few men wore a mustache like that (and we all thought the ones who did looked like child molesters.) Sometimes I think millennials use "the 90s" to refer to "before I can remember" and can actually be any time from 1972-2005.
This is everything! As a DD fan, a former realtor, a homebuyer in the 90s, and a longtime viewer of those cheesy, over-simplified and super staged HGTV shows, it absolutely hits the mark. PS - nicely acted, Heidi - ya nailed that upper Midwest accent, dontcha know!
Ya u betcha
Upper Midwest? 😅 Try Canadian.
@@Unmannedairbeen to Minnesota?
@@Chris-io2csYes. I've never heard an American talk that way, but I've heard that accent on Canadian comedy shows.
@@edennis8578 look I'm from there, maybe you are too, it's not like the accents are in every single city. But all ya gotta do is look up a Midwest accent analysis video on CZcams. If you're into comedy check out Fred armisens US impressions video. Or anything from Charlie Berens. Youll see the accents are similar although even that's obviously not the full story. Seeing as you've been to Minnesota you might have noticed it borders Canada... Accents mingle across adjacent regions quite a bit and that's obviously why they're similar. But it also doesn't mean everyone you talk to will have one Canada included.
It's like when people talk about how much colder Minnesota is than Wisconsin. Like big surprise they can both be cold at the same time right? But both of them are way colder than Texas.
Anyway trust me, people have been calling Minnesota/Wisconsin accents Canadian forever but the upper Midwest has accents of its own and Heidi's character is definitely accurate.
Also sidebar I didn't even realize you weren't the person I responded to lol. If this is gonna be some sorta youtube comment battle where somehow everyone and their dog is an accent expert warn me now so I can get outta here lmao. I suppose I don't care that deeply if peoples idea of the Canadian accent is simply more memorable.
This has no business being this good.
Tim Anderson's backward tie got me rollin LOL
Holy cow I just had a flash back to the 90's. From the clothes, the house, the narration I was teleported to the 90's house hunters shows.
* 90s
My 90s home buying experience involved offering 45k over the asking price. Different part of the country, I guess.
I grew up in a ranch house with popcorn ceiling. Sleeping on the top bunk I bumped my head on the ceiling many times. We also had the kitchen cabinet that opened on both sides. We also would talk to each other through the open cabinet doors. We had a fancy openening with spindles that went between the kitchen and living room. As well as the wood paneling everywhere. This video brought me back to my childhood home.
Lol yes! Top bunk with the popcorn ceiling….wasn’t it so annoying how every time you bumped your head, it always broke off a bunch of little pieces that fell into your bed?? Also my sisters and I would lay there and find pictures in the patterns and make up stories about them
this was so well done. the car phone and the way you tied your 90s belt was so on point. that carpet has come back in style and gone back out again I think.
Oh my God, please never stop making these videos! This was the funniest thing I have seen in MONTHS! As a child of the 80s, these house tropes hit home so well 😂😂😂 (pun originally not intended, but secondarily accepted)
Can I just say...Steve is the essence of every Midwest 90s dad.😆
Lol! The outtakes were hilarious! Love hearing Heidi giggling during their antics. How did they find such a well preserved 80s/90s house? I hated the popcorn ceilings.
It's not 80's or 90's house. This is straight from the 50's.
@@johndong7524No, it's a 70s house. I bought one like this in 1996. 1974 was the year it was built; they're all over town. We looked at a lot of them.
@@edennis8578 what was the about sizes, about prices, and about year you looked at them? In what city? Just wondering
A lot of elderly people don't update their house much from when they purchased it so when they pass away or move to a retirement community their houses are sold like this.
This video was great from start to finish. I recently did work on my new house and its crazy how accurate all those terrible designs decisions were. Those bloopers were funny too.
Oh my gosh!!! You two are hilarious!! I just love you both! Haha!! I loved every single bit of this. Couldn’t quit smiling & laughing! Super fun one to watch!! So clever & I could relate. Too funny ❤
The bloopers make me love y’all even more… you can really see you two are soul mates
Stay tuned for a "date your spouse" reel with some of that cute footage :)
I'm having flashbacks that include literally every fixture being brass.
Did you see that ceiling fan we had, CLASS!
This was SOOO insanely accurate lmao😂🤣 wardrobe killed it for this skit!!!! And the house was literally what I grew up in 💀
carpeting that never goes out of style- lime green shag, wallpaper. linoleum, more wallpaper, florescent ring kitchen lights. a 2x4 wooden deck. Its all gone but I'm still here and promised her a new kitchen exhaust hood and fan soon. Bought it in 1984. Memories forever.
This is supposed to be funny but the 45K budget working retail jobs murdered my soul lmfaoooo
The glory days
SAME
I bought a house in summer of 2021 at the peak of craziness and I feel the same about "intense" negotiations over 500 bucks.
My father bought the home that he my mother myself and my two sisters all eventually lived and grew up in. Cost him a whopping 30K back in 1988.Three beds two baths. Place was clean as a whistle no issues. Gotta love inflation.
My husband and I bought a house like this in 1996 in a small Iowa town, and it was twice that price, $90k. For 844 square feet. The only house we saw that was $50k was run down, had a nightmarish steep back yard, and smelled strongly of mold.
I feel personally attacked 😆 as a Midwesterner living in an old farm house with full wood paneling in the entire living room & entire upstairs, we scrapped the popcorn ceilings off and there was totally linoleum glued down to hardwood floors in the kitchen 🤦♀️😭..... yeah this is all too accurate. Thankfully the hardwood floors in the living room & office were salvaged and are now shining beautifully.
Stop whining and just remodel your ugly house.
I’m facing the same daunting project in our 1915 story and a half. A layer of linoleum, a layer of 1/2” plywood, another layer or linoleum and a layer of sticky tiles… 🤦♀️
@@katiesoderling3596 I'm sure if your house could talk it would have stories to tell.Thank you for preserving history instead of tearing it down . I pray the rest of your projects with house go smooth. Best wishes
@@chickie8252 Oh it does! We got to meet an older lady who grew up in our home and her granddaughter this summer. They had wonderful stories to tell! I was hoping to see some pictures to get an idea of what it used to look like but she didn’t have much that went back far enough past the renovations of the 60’s . But I was so thrilled and grateful to meet her and hear her stories and see her pictures 😊 Thank you for the prayers as well ❤️
You guys captured the feel and look of the style of these home shows PERFECTLY! Hahahaha! I love this!
Gotta love the budget. Even after adjusting for inflation and wage increases what you would have been able to buy in the 90s for a 3200 sq ft, new home would get you a forty yr old, 2200 sq ft home just before Covid. Now in real terms you'll have to settle for a 1200 sq ft townhome next to the ghetto.
This was such a trip down memory lane. That house is such a time warp. Thanks for the fun.
I laughed so hard at this and then I looked around and realized I haven't remodeled in 30 years.
lmao 🤣🤣😂 this is lit on so many different levels. nailed it guys!! well done
Watching this video from St. Cloud, MN. It all checks out.
Where did you find that time capsule?? The sculpted carpet in the living room brought back some nightmares.
We used a time machine!
We have these on the market in Southern California all day long
@@mozberg2191 For the bargain price of 1.5mil
@@mozberg2191not for $44,500!
We just removed SHAG carpet from our living room and put down vinyl planks. By the color and style of the carpet, we estimated it to be 40+ years old. Now, if we can just replace the 1970s no-wax vinyl in the kitchen . . .
It's hilarious that they desire a split level and popcorn ceilings 😂😂
And doing the spider in the swing- that was my life in the 90s.
Nobody ever desired popcorn ceilings. They were just cheaper to make. They’re just trolling rlly well tbh
Adding extra stuff beyond the base is cheaper in your world?
You two are GOLD, I was in some kinda mood........now I can't stop laughing! Oh-keeeeeh that Fargo accent had me reaching for my asthma inhaler🤣
Spider on the swings!! Haha! Steven…she says so quietly. 😂❤️
I loved this and I can feel a sequel coming for buying a house in current times. Please tell us there’s a sequel to come 🙏🤣
Before the modern one will be a sequel based in the early 2000s where they want beige everything.
😂 as a funeral director I’ve always wondered who thought it was a good idea for a split level floor plan!
More character than a ranch (or as I call them, hallway houses). Grew up in those, couldn't stand them. My house is a "semi split", bedrooms a half a floor up or down from the main level, but in the center of the house. Cool layout.
Yo dawg we heard you like stairs, so we made a house style that requires you to use stairs to get ANYWHERE.
My grandmas house was tri level. Nice front entry way family room to the left 5 stairs up you have the dining room the kitchen and a huge breakfast nook then to the right you you have 5 stairs that go down to a large family room a bedroom a small hall way to leads to a full bathroom and the laundry room. The kitchen was open to the family room to you saw everything then you got the upstairs and that too looked over the kitchen and the family room and that had a nice long hallway 2 small bedrooms a full hall bathroom and at the end of the hall was the master with a full master suit bathroom. It was really nice it was open enough but had define spaces unlike today where just a boring open house plan where you either have to decide to out a couch or a table for dinner cuz it kitchen it right there and the a bathroom off to the side.
@@sierrahjmartinez6703 I think the point is if you buy a forever house, then make sure you can use it when you grow old
I hate my split level. I particularly hated it when I broke my ankle and then when I wrecked my knee, I hated it even more. There’s no way I could age in place in this house.
This is hilarious! I mean, I think it's a mix of the 70's, 80's and 90's, but still great!
seeing her cracking up at all the funny jokes in the bloopers at the end was hilarious
Where I’m from, this was part of the 70s and 80s.
I remember my dad scraping the popcorn and steamy the wallpaper off. And ripping out carpets, then going tile crazy.
Ditto. It's all a hoot setting this in the 90s, but I didn't know anyone who put in paneling, linoleum, or popcorn ceilings in the 1990s. Many homes had one or more of those things from the previous 3 decades, including the one i bought 😄, but by the 90s we were tearing that stuff out.
You guys are hilarious 😂, I have been bedridden for 10 years this breaks up some of the SH** I go through daily. I love ❤️ your channel!!!! From one South Dakotan to another.
OMG hilarious. And the giggly outtakes at the end made me laugh. Thanks!
Lived in Minnesota in the early 90… brought me back lol. Love those jello molds
I love watching you two have fun. Humor is essential in a good, healthy marriage ❤
This is one of my favorites of all time
@@DudeDad What a coincidence, me too!
Now it's near impossible to buy a house. The 90s were a dream.
yep I think it is very sad that the younger generations have to somehow manage to have extreme high incomes now to even dream of owning a home in any major city. I feel so fortunate that I bought a home when I did right before things got so out of control in the city I live in. I paid $130k for my house and it's now worth over $400,000 just 15 years later. nothing about this place is worth that, it is ridiculous and honestly makes me angry that it is this way now. it doesnt even benefit me for it to be so high because that just means my property taxes go thru the roof and if I move all that money goes right to buying another overpriced house. we will probably just stay here forever and be grateful we have a home of our own.
Interest rates make it foolish for people to buy a home right now.
@@AsTheWheelsTurnwhen I was younger I thought I didn’t care about being a millionaire, so long as I was happy.
Now that I’m an adult, I realize I need to be a millionaire just to own a home. This is not an exaggeration, there is no home for sale less than $1 million in any city near me. A 1200 square foot three bedroom one bath costs $1 million.
@asmodiusjones9563 are you in California?

As a General Contractor who's done many many repairs and remodles of older homes... When they said it would never go out of style... boy were they wrong! LOL!

Hilarious! Do more 90s videod. Heidi did a great job! Her accent was awesome
You two are so cute lol. I laughed when he said "Stacy likes to come inside and make a decision" when they were talking about her wanting a split level LOL
The AI upscale did a good job of converting the 4:3 to 16:9.
Stacy sure likes her stairs, you can tell! 😂 Heidi and Taylor are awesome!
I grew up in a house that was remodeled in the 70s and this house was so similar. Down to the carpet everywhere (in the kitchen and bathrooms), the popcorn ceilings and the panelling. I live in a house that was built in 1995 and it's very open. Obviously before it's time!
Yeah, our house was built in 1990 and is pretty open although the kitchen is not as open as you see in 2000s homes. This house being bought in the 90s was probably built in the 70s.
Me too. Had a house built in 1994 and wasn’t closed off.
There's nothin' worse than bathroom carpet!
@@DudeDad it was dark red shag. My mom couldn't wait to get rid of it. She threw it in the garbage herself!
@@DudeDadReally? I think kitchen carpet is nasty Nasty.
I love the “she likes to make a decision” comment. We were looking for a house once and specifically said we don’t want split level because I hate having to make a decision as soon as I walk in the door or get knocked down the stairs while I’m putting on my shoes because someone just walked through the door. Of course that’s all the agent showed us. That was like 20 years ago and my husband still talks about it.😂
When we were buying 5 yrs ago that was exactly what my husband said,” No split levels because I don’t want to have to make a decision as soon as I walk in the door!” Lol
I love that the decision was between the laundry and the kitchen! 😂
@@jenniferelkins 😂😂
Why do people say that though?! It’s not a decision. The answer is upstairs. You always go upstairs where the beds and bathrooms are. You never choose to enter and go to the basement bedroom and Rec room unless you’re the child who is downstairs 💀
@@LucasFernandez-fk8se or the father with a sweet man cave down stairs that you and your buddies can play Playstation and watch football games.
You two make me smile! 🤪
The end of this video is hilarious. Heidi and Taylor are marriage goals
The laughter and chemistry between you two is THE, BEST, PART of every video.
This made me both laugh and cry considering those are the only homes just under $500,000 now in my area. (And they are all split levels).
So what is your plan, to be able to afford such house? Bitcoin? :)
My parents bought their first house in 1980 for $38,000, and sold it in '88 for $40,000. The person who bought it sold it in about 2010 for $500,000. It's a 3 bedroom demountable home on stumps.
I actually love split levels. We rented many places before we bought and the split level was our favorite.
Maybe because I grew up in the 90s? I grew up in a 1 story and my grandparents had a split level that was much nicer than our house.
