In Bargain Block, Keith and Evan bought up a host of derelict properties for roughly $a thousand per house in Detroit, Michigan, with the plan of flipping them to still fit a sub-$100,000 purchaser’s funds. To do that, they do most of the renovations themselves as a way to save the buyer cash, as well as by means of refurbishing secondhand design items. They love including their own unique touches to each house, which can on occasion lead them to tricky to sell. So did the weird house ever sell?

The ‘Bargain Block’ weird house did sell, even though they don’t talk about this in the series.

Sometimes all the way through Bargain Block episodes, we see Keith and Evan work with realtor Shea Hicks-Whitfield to sell the properties that they flip. In an interview with EstateEnvy, Keith defined, “[Shea is] incredibly well-connected, and she's actually the very best individual for our demographic of first-time homebuyers. She simply has an infectious energy. She introduced us a great quantity of people to lend a hand construct this industry."

One very sleuthy Redditor, u/Accurate-Republic-22, discovered through following Shea’s profile on Zillow that the weird house did indeed sell! According to Zillow, the home sold on November 10, 2021 at $110,900. It was first listed on August 14, 2020 with a selling price of $5,600, at which we can assume the Bargain Block boys bought the house. Just about a year later, on August 6, 2021, they listed the house for sale after flipping it at a 1953% increase. Talk about house flipping!

The weird house on ‘Bargain Block’ was memorable for many reasons, including its bright orange kitchen.

According to its Zillow description, the weird house is a “fun, abstract art, bungalow-style home on Detroit's Westside.” But that’s not all we need to know about this unique home.

“The home is an instant mood-lifter, as it's filled with lots of fun colors. The main bedroom is a spacious, private, calm oasis. The bathroom features a sweet, illuminating, glow-light, floral design. This home also features a full basement and a large backyard. This artsy abode is filled with tons of natural light, with wood flooring throughout.”

But Bargain Block fans might no longer describe it with such eloquence. Many in reality had blended feelings about the home. One fan wrote, “I liked the kitchen and the external. The cowboy in the tub-grotto needed to saddle up and mosey out of there.” Yes, that’s proper, there is a cowboy in the tub-grotto.

Another Redditor wrote, “I will be able to generally get on board with some/most of Keith's designs however this used to be all an excessive amount of for me. The kitchen counter looked like a cupcake wrapper, they hauled that cast iron bathtub up the stairs to make that weird shrine, and the glow-in-the-dark bathroom ... why?” Clearly, people have blended feelings about the weird house, however there’s somebody for each house and fortuitously, the weird house discovered its “somebody.”
