 Alright guys, what is going on, welcome to another episode of Making Games and today's episode is going to be about home ownership games. And I did tell myself that I wouldn't pick up the camera unless I had something special to show you guys, something worth it and you know truth be told I do. So let's come over this way, I mentioned to you guys that I am looking at leaving Alice Springs obviously, push came to shove and I want to put my house on the market for rent, not to sell but to rent. So the first thing I had to do was to get the place you know looking the part so everything else looks the part to be honest guys I'm really happy with my house, it's nice and simple, the furniture's nice, you know there's enough space etc it's nice and tidy but there's one thing that was fucking me off and it has fucked me off for the 18 months that I've lived here and that is my backyard and I had not touched it in 18 months. I don't know if you guys, some of you guys saw it but it was an absolute jungle so without further ado I'd like to introduce you guys to my brand new backyard all ready for the place to be rented out. I don't know if you saw this beforehand but it was an absolute jungle and in one day they came in and you know completely redid the whole thing. I know this area is not big but like literally walking out here and seeing this instead of seeing what I saw yesterday and for the past 18 months is just making me so happy. So basically the pavers were there, there was a dead tree in the middle of that tree going up and there was no fence there. Everything else was just complete grass and dirt and honestly that just came in here. I wanted the same fence along the back so the thing that took the longest to order and get ready was the actual fence that was ready and then they came in and did the rest so over here we've got an irrigation system which is pretty sick which apparently I don't even need to touch so that I've only got seven plants in the whole entire garden so that irrigation system will come on when I need it and that is going to water one grass, two grasses, three grasses, four grasses and then my three miniature citrus trees which I am so so happy about. I love these things. This is the exact thing I wanted in my garden and lo and behold they make miniature citrus trees. So we've got one lemon, one lime and one orange tree and obviously the bark goes along the side and the back and then we've got these stones here to just break it up a little bit. So that's it guys, that's it. I'm really happy and so obviously I'm not going to muck around so yesterday once I knew that this was going to happen I rang up the LJ Hooker and organized them to come around today at 12 o'clock to assess the place and give me a little bit of an estimation on how much I can get per week renting so today today is a really important day guys I'm not going to lie it's a day that I've been looking forward to for a long time to actually finally get the real estate agent in here to tell me what I can get for it and when I can put it on the market for rent I'm not going to sell it obviously it did it did cross my mind to sell it but truth be told Alice Springs property market hasn't moved since I bought it and so all it's been for me is basically my house to live in so alright so one thing I've got to say is that this tripod and this camera is heavy as fuck so I could not there is no way I could carry this around the city or something vlogging all day there's no way in hell so honestly guys I think I'm gonna have to change cameras and just use this one for my still shots but with that being said guys you know with with the the backyard the way it is the house is nice and clean I'm feeling good it puts me in a good space I'm feeling good the real estate agent is coming today I'm fucking excited for that it's nine o'clock in the morning I've got three hours to go until she gets here so what I'm gonna do now is steal a scoop of oxy shred for my flatmate which so if you watch this video Dom I stole your oxy shred if you don't watch my YouTube channel then you'll never know so oxy shred mango obviously we're cutting it in a moment first thing in the morning is not a meal anymore it's it's fasting and it's caffeine from some source so this morning we're going with a scoop of oxy shred and I'll fill that up with water and yeah I mean you guys would have seen in the previous video if you had of see if you had watched I was feeling a little bit down a little bit heartbroken that was probably about two weeks ago now that I made that and since then you know you've just you've got to focus on yourself and I needed to do that I realized that I've done it wrong over and over again I put all of my effort into one other person when and completely forgot about any goals and aspirations that I had personally and you know that creates a very bad emotional state that creates a bad situation you know you're not focusing on yourself at all and so when this other situation that you put all your effort into doesn't work it's like you feel like you've got nothing and then it takes a little bit of time to actually realize again that yes of course you've got things going on you know to look forward to and that's what I needed to do so this is this is this is a momentous day guys getting the real estate agent in so I can get the ball rolling to rent this place out and then I am free and hey who knows where I'm gonna go who knows what I'm gonna do but I'll feel a lot freer I'll feel like I can go somewhere if I need to for now I'm just gonna have this oxy shred I'm gonna go to the car wash wash my car but how does this sound I'm gonna have a nice clean car full tank of petrol we're gonna come home have a nice clean house clean bathroom new backyard I'm gonna go to the supermarket get some more food so I have full pantry full fridge that's good enough for me so let's do it another major key guys best thing I ever got it might be because I'm in Alice Springs we drink so much water but seriously a water cooler ten dollar ten dollars for 15 liters and it's just a swapping a swapping swapping grab thing so we got more more bottles down there and yeah absolutely fantastic idea so I'm gonna go clean my car now I'll see you guys later one clean car stoked honestly can't say how stoked I am right now feeling really accomplished next thing bring that in hang out another load and clean the house and look at my little maid out there there he is we're back we're back with some news so the lady came everything went well but one thing that didn't go well is the price that they think I'm gonna get so apparently unfurnished guys let's have a look unfurnished this property could reach a weekly rental of 430 to 450 per week and then if it's furnished it's an extra 50 dollars from 480 to 500 per week now I'll tell you guys a bit of I'll tell you guys how much I'll pay for my mortgage I pay 375 a week so obviously you know if I got 500 per week that'd be 125 dollars in the pocket per week for me to then pay the other expenses associated with owning property but I wanted 550 at least so I think I'm gonna go with I think I'm gonna get another couple of real estate and just come through and see what they say there's no point going with the first one that comes through especially if they don't give you what you want so that's what I'll be organizing over the next week but apart from that we're gonna continue training obviously we've got CrossFit tonight at 630 it's 521 right now I had a day off work so so obviously we did all of that stuff this morning got my got my life back in order got the first appraisal on the house which I'm really stoked about you know I've been thinking about doing that for so fucking long and we finally did it so that's good what else I've trained some chess today but you know I go to the gym every day but on my days off I've been doing one workout in the gym and one CrossFit workout so the guy that you may have seen in another video Achilles who joined up with me he can only hit the 630 class at night so on my days off I basically lounge around at my leisure until I want to go to the gym I go to the gym for about an hour do some weights then I wait around to 630 to hit a CrossFit class with Achilles and whoever else is gonna be there so that's what we're gonna do tonight I'm just hanging here at the computer at the little office and having a great time so until next time guys that was a bit of an update on what's going on I am cussing I'm feeling hungry right now I'm feeling depleted I said I probably I said I wasn't gonna go full force into this cut but it seems that I can't really help myself when that switch is flipped in my head to go from bulking to dieting mode it doesn't take me long to change things up and that's exactly what we've done so once it's been a week I will make another video and tell you guys exactly how I've been going but until then I hope you have a great night train hard eat well and I will too and I'll see you guys in the next one
