Based on the sign it's condemned for lacking emergency exits in the basement, so people can climb out of the windows in an emergency. As it is the basement does not have those. My understanding is normally these are grandfathered out for old construction like the S2 house, unless perhaps the county/state really doesn't want you there.

Yeah the basement would be grandfathered, but adding a new habitable space / sleeping room into the basement would make it subject to the emergency exit rule. So I guess it's the local govt's opinion that throwing mattresses in a basement is making it into a sleeping room. But for some reason, just yanking the mattresses OUT of the basement isn't a remedy.

I chose not to watch most of this season after one too many previous failures. Season 1 was lighting in a bottle. I remember thinking the dead air after losing 2/3 of the cast overnight in season 2 was a disaster. But they pulled through. Season 3 made me lose faith in the show. That was supposed to be the “professional” season and it fell apart.

I knew that this season would erupt in flames. As each season has had progressively worse management. They learn almost nothing season to season. If the show is to continue Sam have to go through the proper channels and stop trying to do everything on the sly.

These kind of window exits are mandatory now as part of building code and would require an excavator and masonry crew to install in a process that would take a week or more. Nobody is going to dig that shit out by hand, enlarge the windows and pour the concrete without power tools so they're looking at a 5-10k job on top of getting condemned out of the house.

It could be done faster and doesn't really require skilled labor. I'm getting $350-500 day rates on a mini excavator (assume double for a delivery now, now, NOW!), $1,500 gets a gas powered Hilti saw to chop the basement wall (easily sold for $1k when the job's done), and that liner is just a 3/4 cut culvert. The only place concrete would be needed is sealing the bottom. Slap some cheap metal roofing above and you're not having to worry about sump/drainage. If they'd put the effort in to start in earnest yesterday, they could be squared away to remove that red tag Monday.

The price tag really isn't the issue, I agree with you fully it can be done by the average guy but when you're dealing with property flipping at such pricetags its better to deflect blame onto a company with a warranty like they did with the Polish named company that handled the renovation work to begin with.

They shouldn’t have tried to stealth the show in the first place.

Everytime I see something like this, ironically, I think of the video of Sam getting kicked out while filming at some ag museum. The guy asking for insurance, then a business card, then chastising Sam for not wearing a mask makes my blood boil every single time.

You REALLy need to read the thread if thats your take away

Buy the saw from Home Depot, return it when you're done. 90 day full return = free rental.

When I did mine, I dug it by hand, rented the saw, leveled, tamped the bottom, used pea gravel and got the egress window kit from Amazon. It took 1 day for my drunk ass to do it... Like a week for the kit though but I don't have contractor hookups. This should have been done before the old owners sold them the house.

>i dont watch the show let me tell you why i dont watch it

 

[FieldPiece]

I would recommend you go look into the videos of The Station club fire and take a gander at what state it occurred in. The state is going to ass fuck them for trying to stuff 8 people into an area with a single exit and possible way of escaping out the basement windows, particularly since the fish were actually barricading that exit at times. These kind of window exits are mandatory now as part of building code and would require an excavator and masonry crew to install in a process that would take a week or more. Nobody is going to dig that shit out by hand, enlarge the windows and pour the concrete without power tools so they're looking at a 5-10k job on top of getting condemned out of the house.

That shit seems pretty easy assuming you have the tools. But I'm no mason and know fuckall about structural shit when it comes to basements.
1: dig hole
2: cut hole using concrete saw
3: make frame and attach using an SDS and tapcons
4: install either door or window and use expanding foam or silicone caulk for waterproofing
5: Install the retaining wall/shell thing and anchor it to the basement with tapcons and foam sealant

I assume Erick Hayden could do that for them, he does concrete work.

Edit: DO NOT PANIC. Sources familiar with Sam and Jets line of thinking have reached out to me and informed me that Sam and Co. Have hired an army of lawyers from the most prestigious law firm in the country.

Based on the sign it's condemned for lacking emergency exits in the basement, so people can climb out of the windows in an emergency. As it is the basement does not have those. My understanding is normally these are grandfathered out for old construction like the S2 house, unless perhaps the county/state really doesn't want you there.

On one hand, I want to post this to the Community Happening thread, because the feature is WRONG on the Internet.

On the other hand I don't want this thread featured again, bringing in the riff raff.

So what is the connection with the drive by redditor. He called in the building code violation? Seems like a boomer move. But he's also a photographer who lives in a shitty condo, why would he know much about code?

Einstein ass nigga over here.

More likely the call had nothing to do with it, but the cops checking warrants and all that shit after the call led to the situation spiralling based on the dispute with the council and the chicken shit at the end of S2.

TRUST THE PLAN

 

[BullfrogBill]

If the show is to continue Sam have to go through the proper channels and stop trying to do everything on the sly.

I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being the final season of Fishtank. Sam clearly doesn't care about this season, he spent most of his time this season on his laptop thinking about other things like his supplement and Isreal. They can't buy any more houses as none of their previous houses will sell and they are kind of just cursed with them, they can't even film in these houses anymore. This combined with all the issues people cause the show, I feel like we won't be getting a season 5.

They might pivot into making Bloodgames a separate entity, it's pretty much Jan's show at this point. I think Sam just wants to do podcasts, grifter products, and maybe keep doing Extreme Peace if they can scrape up the cash.

 

[Chuck Shiesty]

if they can scrape up the cash.

Alex Schultz is a Thiel acolyte, money isn't gonna be an issue there.

 

[Bingo Bongo 24]

I honestly have no idea how they are constantly running out of money.
It has to be a gas light, we've seen their back end financials.

Where can I see these?
