Austin Flipsters
House Flipping in Austin, Texas
In our opinion, there can never be enough house flipping shows and channels. This rendition follows two self-described goofy friends from college who teamed up to flip houses in the always fun, friendly and exciting town of Austin, Texas. The duo cover all aspects of renovating and remodeling, including the design and investing concepts behind their projects. Their business has successfully progressed, as they are now encouraging and helping their subscribers to give flipping a chance, as well.
See Austin Flipsters on YouTube for channel details.
Belinda Carr
Home Building Materials & Processes
We discovered Belinda’s channel while researching an article on shipping container homes. We really respected the bold and provocative stance she took on this somewhat controversial subject, backed with fair analysis, thorough research and brave perspectives. Many of the viewers of this popular video did, as well. Her channel covers “topics related to building construction”. What is unique to her channel is that she is gifted at making any topic she covers understandable, relevant and interesting. Though she is educated in Architecture and had considered a career as an architect, we think she has found her true calling on YouTube.

Budget Lawns
DIY Lawn Care
Hosted by Travis Feltner, this is a relatively new DIY lawn care channel that provides helpful tips for the average homeowner trying to revive an ugly lawn or maintain a nice one. The goal of the channel is to help homeowners of all experience levels have the best yard on the block without spending a lot of money. Like most popular YouTubers, the host of this channel has all of the key requisite traits: passion, personality, knowledge, sense of humor, and transparency. Although the channel does not yet have a huge following, it will certainly continue to grow, based on how highly engaged and appreciative his viewers are. To get a sense of the host’s sense of humor please view this recent short video, titled A Guy Can Dream, Right?

Chibi Moku
Architectural Documentaries
Who or what is Chibi Moku? According to their YouTube bio, they are the “darndest, hard workin’ little cinematography duo in the world”. They live in an RV full-time, while traveling the US, creating stories about architecture and design. Their website states their approach as: “Every well designed building has a story. We find and tell that story”.

Living Even Keeled
