Hey everyone I'm Chris and welcome back to another video this video is actually
very exciting for me because my YouTube channel is like my personal journey and
so this is a big milestone in my life
so before I actually go into the house tour I just want to say please
subscribe to the channel if you haven't already give this video a thumbs up
because it will help me with the YouTube algorithm. So this empty house tour is
actually my very first investment property
I just forgot what I was supposed to say so a few years ago I decided that I
didn't want to be an employee for the rest of my life and so I started
planning for my retirement and I decided that I want to retire early like in my
30s maybe late 30s but my deadline is when I'm in my 40s, I should be
retired or actually semi-retired because I actually love my job but
anyway I also want to share how I got into this mindset and it's because of
the books I've read and also blogs I've read off the top of my head it
would be The Four Hour Work Week by Tim Ferriss, Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert
Kiyosaki and also mister money mustache and this
is where I first heard about the fire movement which means financial
independence retire early and actually a lot of people are doing this now a lot
of people have the same mindset as me and these are ordinary people like you
and me. For me personally I never got a handout I work my ass off and anything
is possible if you have the right mindset and also if you work hard. So
actually I'm nowhere near my goal yet but these things take time so
slow and steady wins the race and without further ado welcome to the
empty house tour of my very first investment property. Hi so I realize now
that I could have filmed this so much better and I actually regret it but during
filming this, I was in a hurry because tenants were moving in. So when you go
inside the house you notice straight away the beautiful wooden floors and
this hallway I'm gonna go straight to the lounge what I like about this house
is that it has a lot of windows so it also gets a lot of sun. The lounge has a
fireplace and also a floor heater on the right side so through this door is the
smallest room in the house so you can use this as an office or a tiny bedroom
for your dog or cat if you're fancy like that
Hi.
Taking your sister's advice.
Enjoying the house.
We are now in the kitchen and the previous owners actually left this
beautiful buffet table on the right side it's real solid, real heavy wood and
another detail I want to mention is at the back behind those sliding doors is
where the fridge and washing machine are hidden so now I'll take you guys back to
the hallway where all the bedrooms are so this is the master bedroom again the
previous owners left this big mirror and this bedroom has its own built-in
wardrobe so this last bedroom is a double bedroom and you can tell it used
to be a child's bedroom and last but not the least is the bathroom so it's just a
normal bathroom there's a shower over the bath there's a sink and a toilet and
this annoying girl who always says hi in front of a mirror.
Now I'll take you guys to the backyard there's actually a good space out here
there's this wooden deck that you can access from the kitchen and this
beautiful magnolia tree and at the back is the sleepout and I also realized how
dirty my camera is. So the sleepout has its own shower and toilet.
The previous owners actually used this as an Airbnb and there's a potential in
the future to add a kitchen but for now welcome to the sleepout
