Why does the phouse have so many problems?
I know they moved into the house before it was completely finished but that was what, five years ago? I don't know if the house was a new build or it was an older home that they renovated, but having a flooded bathroom and bedroom only a few years in seems crazy (and I think the flooding was an accidental finding?). They also had to exterminate earlier this year, a drawer in the kitchen is already broken (as pointed out in the baking video), and one of the steps of the floating staircase is loose (there is a clip of Phil going down the stairs and one of the top steps is not secure). Is this just shoddy construction? Or a (years-long) string of bad luck?
I know home ownership comes with a new set of challenges compared to renting, but this seems above and beyond the norm.
