Renovating An Abandoned $1 Home In Liverpool, UK | Unlocked

Well done to this very charismatic lady, but I can't help but comment that she has indeed inherited money from her family. I don't know a single person that has 80k for a renovation and who's lucky enough to get on a 1£ scheme house

Flipping the living space was brilliant but if i was a guest id be looking around and wondering where i could sit , theres no sofa to make it cosy / welcoming

Not only is Maxine a fit bird she is also a brave and forward thinking woman with a lot of balls and a ton of style. I'm smitten.

I owned a house down there from 2004 to about 2016, the whole area was supposed to get revamped with new school which it got and a new park area which never happened, the aeea sortnof went down hill from around 2006 with more and more houses getting boarded up.

Well done to this lady you have done an amazing job revamping that house.

From neglected to stunning! Watch as this $1 home in Liverpool gets a complete clean-up and makeover. The transformation is unreal!

Marvelous. Hardwork with a marvelous result. Bravo!

Such a beautiful home

why would you mention dollars?

Awful shithole of a city …there are reasons as to why these houses are left to rot .😮😅😮😮😅😊

I’m so happy to see people that are passionate about restoring houses like this. It’s such a shame to see them derelict or just disappearing.

i need same for lifetime at min. rate

Any chance today 2024 .11.12

Buy for a £1 if you are British .. But if your an illegal immigrant you get it for absolutely nothing . Even a hotel stop before you move into a fully furnished ready made house for you including free mobile phones and money to help you settle in… This government has it so wrong …. £1 house but there's conditions total joke

Why is this woman talking in dollars , came from america with cash and got a 1 pound house , absolute disgrace me and my parents live in uk 20 years and still cant afford a house

Dollars ?

Why does it say $1? It wasn't a dollar. It was a pound. That's $1.30.

Im British, and well done to her. But something about her gives me the creeps.

the floor plan is insane

One second her friends (male – dare I guess) literally slave away doing all the work, her dad dies and leaves her the capital. The very next she moves roofs, walls, do electrical installations, doors, windows and pays for it. Women are funny

I don't really care , and i wish you all the best ,but you don't sound like scousers.. its probably naive of me thinking they'd go to liverpool people. Cos nothing does!

1 year? Ive had scaffolding up since january to fix a few tiles and guttering, no way you can rely on trades in the uk

Why talk in $ when you are living in the UK?

pounded

Your dad would be so proud well done looks amazing

An amazing transformation, very creative , and a veeeery chilled space . Superb work , hats off to you 😊

So you quit your job and sell the family home you inherited to sink all the money into anthor place. Why make all that extra work for yourself?

Local government getting people to restore abandoned houses at thier own cost rather than doing it themselves
Theres loads of homeless people in liverpool that could use this housing but they dont want to pay for it themselves 1 pound for a house what joke
Fair play to this lady though good job

We are not in America its a £ not a dollar. That would mean you would have purchased the house for 77p if you have brought with a dollar 😂😂😂😂

Since when has Liverpool had $'s should be £'s £1 buys you a house in a slum area as seen the documentary on T.V.

why is she talking like a robot?

Dollars ??????? Eh

She done brilliant work she worked hard to get the house to high standard well done you deserve your dad be so proud of you 👍 well done 👏

Love to see your neighbours

Losing 2 of the 3 bedrooms can't be a good resale move — the value definitely decreases doing that. She should have tried to at least make it a 2 bedroom. Also, one bathroom, at least in the US, is a bad idea for home value.

She killed her father for this house? LoL wonderful 😅

I knew that you can buy a €1 house in some villages in Italy but not that a similar scheme was available in the UK. Congratulations to Maxine for making a wonderful home out of this abandoned house especially considerering the amount of work she did herself. Also nice to see that a lot of the street has also been renovated.
Being given only one year to complete all renovations seems pretty silly though, in Italy I understand that you have 1 year to submit your plans and then a further 3 years to complete them.

I understood that you sold the house of your father and had enough money for the renovation! What went wrong? Anyway it's a beautiful place to live.

Cars need to be banned in that area and all the streets switched to green land

I would really love to see you one of these dollar homes renovated and restored in a more classic style. Every time I see one of these renovations it’s super modern inside it’s pretty and all but it seems like it’s so disrespectful to the original architecture.

We use pound in the uk Not dollar

You have a lovely place

Just amazing what you can do with T L C create a great home

Well done Maxine, you’re an inspiration and it looks great.

I wouldn't be comfortable sleeping on the ground floor with how much crime those streets in Liverpool has. Not safe enough.
