- We love when our fans say hi to us, but we don't necessarily
love it all the time. This video is sponsored by SimpliSafe. In February of 2020,
we finished this house and moved into our,
basically our dream home. You saw the entire process. We filmed it. I think we have
over 40 videos of our house. So why in the world would
we want to move away from our dream home? - There's lots of reasons, but... We'll get into it. - In today's video, we're going to cover all of the reasons why we
are actually considering moving away from our beautiful home, and what would we build
and where would we move if we did move? So, let's explain all this. First of all, Leslie, the house that you designed is beautiful. - Thank you. - [Dan] I love the house.
- I love everything about it! - [Dan] Would you design
a very similar house? - It would be super similar, because I love everything about it. I love the design on the
outside, the exterior, the interior, the design is perfection. So, it would be kind of hard. - I think minor changes...
- [Leslie] Yes. - To this floor plan. So, it's not necessarily us moving because we don't like our house. We actually love this house. I even love the books
that are turned backwards inside of the house. One thing that has changed
since our last home video is we have neighbors, finally. The house that was
getting built right here, next door to us is finished
and the people have moved in. It took them about two years to build. We have neighbors across the
street on the other side. Luckily we still have our
beautiful view looking out at this mountain, but
across kiddie corner, they are framing this house. Our same builder, Christensen Homes are building this beautiful home, kiddie corner from us, so... (Dan chuckles)
Those guys are cool. (soft music) I told you earlier that
this video is sponsored by SimpliSafe. During the pandemic, the cost
of everything to build a home has skyrocketed. And so there's been some
bad actors that have come in and done some really bad things. This is hundreds of
thousands of dollars of wood, and what's happening is
some people are coming in the evenings and they're taking wood and throwing it in the back of the trucks and they're stealing it. Or they're going into
houses and taking out all of the appliances and stealing them while the house is under construction. When we were in our rental home, before we bought this house, we used SimpliSafe for the
doorbell and the security system. But now for the first time, a
very highly requested feature, an outdoor wireless camera
is something that SimpliSafe now does. So last night, Jonathan came over. We set up a camera on this two by four, so that he could survey, in
the day and in the night, this property, so that
nobody would steal something. Or if they did, we would catch them. So check this out. (Dan grunts) On the very end of this, you can set up a SimpliSafe 1080p camera, basically anywhere outdoors. There is a very easy to change battery that goes inside of here. You just have to have the
base set up in your home, which we have connected in my studio, so the wifi reaches out here. You connect the magnetic base to here, and you can just put the camera
at whatever angle you want. Now via the SimpliSafe app, you can see exactly what... You can see what the camera's seeing. See look, there's Hunter, right there. Say hi, Hunter. - Hi! So there's a security camera. It's 1080p. At nighttime, it does have a night mode. You can zoom in eight times
and it also notifies you whenever something is happening,
or you can talk through it. You can hear the audio, or you
can talk through the camera. And the nice thing is there is interactive monitoring
services that are available, where they can call the police. We have some security cameras
already built-in to our homes. At this point, we don't
need additional cameras, but if you're somebody that is
looking for a security system and you're not building a
house from the ground up, and you'd like to add something, check out the link in the description. SimpliSafe is offering 20% off of their interactive monitoring service and the first month free. If you use the link in
the description that is SimpliSafe.com/whatsinside. I kind of wonder if we should put a camera on top of Zack's head and let
you guys have access to it. So you always know what Zack is seeing. Maybe not a good idea. (upbeat music) So yes, we really do
love our neighborhood. We love our home, but it's
all about the location, so... (Leslie knocks on door) (Dog barking) - Hi! - [Dan] Hey!
- Hi! - [Dan] We want to look at those lots. - Oh... Okay. Let's do it. (Dan and Jonathan chuckle) - [Dan] Not staged at all! (Dan laughs) - Okay! Be faster answering the door! Let's try again!
(Dan laughs) - Okay, so we came over
to Jonathan's house. He is going to take us to the lot. We asked him to come to the door and say, yeah, okay, let's go. And then, yeah, we're
not the best actors here. Okay! So, Jonathan
Christensen, he built our home. You know Jonathan and Susan. He's the one that has some of the lots that would build our house. So we're going to ride over
there in his truck right now. Sorry about the awkward thing. - Yeah, let's just get... - [Leslie] It's just your little eyes! Your eyes went to Dan, to me, to... (everyone laughs) - [Dan] Are you developing all the lots inside of this neighborhood? - I'm personally not
developing all the lots, but I'm involved with them, yeah. - [Dan] Okay, so, we've
got a big truck over here doing something. Why would we move from where
we live now to somewhere else? When we've already established
that we love our house. We'd probably build the same house. So, what is the difference
between this street and basically where we live now? - Well, first, you'll be my neighbor. - Yes!
- Okay. So, Jonathan and Susan
would move and be like, right next door to us. - It's going to be a lot more private. We'll have a gate here. - So it's a gate.
- Yes. - So, a gated street with how many houses? - [Jonathan] Eight. - Eight. So we'd have eight
lots on a gated street. They are three quarter
acre lots, all of them. We love when our fans say hi to us, but we don't necessarily
love it all the time. When people come to our
house, they're always really, really nice.
- So nice! - Everybody's so nice. But you always worry about like, maybe that one that's not so nice. And so, to have some sort of security where we're behind a gate, that's nice. This is the plot of dirt that
we would likely be moving to, if we move. Our house would be at
the end of a cul-de-sac. Over here along this
wall would be our lot. Now, if you follow this wall
all the way down on this side, this is where the
Christensens' lot would be. The one thing about this lot
is there is one house over here on the side, that's been
here for quite a while. It's massive. They have their
own pond, their tennis court, their pool, and their wall is basically the border of the
entirety of this property. So, that side over there would
be the Christensens' lot. And then this side would be our lot at the end of the cul-de-sac. This is going to be farmland
for quite a long time. There are no plans for
that to be developed. And then this side also
pointing toward the mountain, there's also farmland and
that does not have any plans to be built on for a long time. So, whether you build on
that side or this side, you shouldn't have any house
behind you for a long time. Now we love where we live right now, but at some point somebody
is going to build a big house behind us and our view
will be completely gone. So you have the Pine Valley Mountain view, but then this side you
have the temple view. There is a temple getting
built right down there. That's going to be a really
big, beautiful temple. And if you are on this side, you will be able to see the temple. It's not quite as pretty of a view as what nature and Pine Valley Mountain. But for me, I really
want to be able to have a south facing backside of the house so that I can get the solar
panels' full efficiency versus where we're at right now, where we're facing to
the east and the west. When can we start building? When is this neighborhood
going to be ready? - Probably January, February-ish. So the first of the year. - [Dan] That will be like
the asphalt, everything, and then we can start breaking ground, building the house if we have plans ready. But there are three things, three very specific things
that we would change, if we did build the same house again. - First, the size of the girls' bedrooms. It may look big on camera, but it actually is a little bit smaller. And as you can see, Claire does dance, so she always is wanting
to do dance in here. It's kind of small for that. - Lincoln's room is plenty large, but the number two thing
that we would change with the house... This is Lincoln's closet,
and as you can see, he has lots of shoe boxes
and lots of clothes. And he's not very good
about hanging up his stuff, so we could use more drawers. He only has this many drawers
and it is packed inside and he needs a bigger spot for his shoes. A small thing, but it
would be nice to have. This one you guys are
probably going to laugh about, but we need more garage space. Yes, we still have the blue Roadster. We are shipping it out
this next week to Eli. Sad. Goodbye. But Lincoln, like we
said, is turning 16 soon. We will likely have another
vehicle inside of the garage. We have so many electric bikes.
We have all of these ones. We have two there in the box here that we haven't even pulled out yet. We have our Tesla over here. We have some storage over
here for some of our merch. And we also do have the RV
garage, which would work great. Except we put a golf
simulator inside of there. I'd like to take this
garage and take the studio and attach the studio to this. And then maybe just like
a little mini kitchen. It could be like a mini apartment that's out and attached to the garage. The fourth thing that we will change. And we will for sure change this because I really, really
want this to be effective. We do have solar, but
it's very inefficient. It's only like half of the
day that it actually works. I want to take that part of the roof, and have it be completely
solar and all facing south. That's why we would buy
the south facing lot. And then all day long when the sun is out, it's going to be shining on it. It's going to be super
efficient, super effective. Let's use them what it's intended for. Look how tall Leslie is right now. - No, that would be weird. - She wants me to not
throw her into the pool. - Oh, no! Please don't! -
Kind of want to just jump in? - No! Don't please!
- Don't? Okay. All right. So, make
the decision right now. Are we moving to the new lot or not? - I didn't think we were
making it right now. - Make the decision. If you say the wrong
answer, I'm throwing you in. - We haven't even talked about it though. I have, I go back and forth.
I go back and forth truly. Like I really do. - Oh, I don't know if
that's the right answer. - What's the right answer? We have to talk about it still. - We're going to talk about it. We'll tell you on a later episode. We would be neighbors and
basically best friends, which is pretty cool. Sorry about the awkward thing. - Yeah, let's just get it.
- It's just your little eyes! Your eyes went to Dan, to me, to... (Leslie and Jonathan laugh) (Dan laughs) - [Dan] Why are
you laughing all the time? - I don't know!
- [Dan] I don't know!
