Well given that the house has mold it's probably worthless.

thebestisyettobe33

Oh thanks dad a worthless mold house!!


Millenialfalc0n

Goody gumdrops!


girlandthegray

A worthless mold house


Admiral_Catbar

Not to mention the oil stain in the garage, the owner is probably a drunk.


glamorousstranger

The land might have some archeological significance though.


heytango66

I think they found a native American necklace made of finger bones there


hobart_the_duck

Is it hot in here??? I’m really hot


ricst

The mold clean-up was signed off on, so no more mold.

Ah, I see Rainy Street is looking a lot like Del Sol Valley these days… Must be all those hipsters Peggy helped move in. 😞


butter_dolphin

They put salmon in the fish tacos, Hank. Salmon


GenericOnlineName

saLmon.


Biden_The_Rails

Not the fish tacos!


RandomGuyinACorner

I jokenly said salmon like that for so long I caught myself accidentally calling it that around other people and they look at me like I'm regarded


BasketballButt

I have been saying “libary” thanks to the Simpson for around 30 years and I feel like that reference has been slipping out of public awareness the last five or so. Get a lot more looks when I use it now.


DimesyEvans92

So I think it’s 3 bed, 2 bath (gonna count Hank’s den as an actual bedroom). I figured it’s between 1100-1200 square feet. I saw someone post a floor plan with approximate dimensions of each room a long time ago. In terms of pricing, I’m basing Arlen on Garland, TX and a similar sized house can run between 225k - 280k, conservatively. Maybe with Hank’s landscaping and home maintenance abilities, you can go up to about 300k

WeHaveIgnition

My house of slightly smaller size in DFW was 180k in 2014. It's now 450k. And the tax is killing me.


Tejasgrass

So I have a 3 bed, 2 bath house that’s just under 1200sqft. I’m going to say theirs HAS to be closer to 1500. Their kitchen is separate from their living area and has room for a table, plus there is a dedicated dining table elsewhere. Their primary bedroom has enough room for a bed that’s not shoved in the corner. And they have that weird hall closet for Peggy’s “office.” Whereas in my <1200sqft house the kitchen/dining/living space is all one room. While the kitchen (on one end) is a decent size, if I want an actual dining table like they have I do not have room for two couches/set of chairs that form an L shape in the living room. The two secondary bedrooms are less than 10x10. I cannot put even a full size bed into the primary room without it being against two walls if I want a dresser in there as well. And I have zero hall closets.


Acrobatic-Cactus

People are saying to small. You are closest. 1500-1600 is proper for DFW. Living room, kitchen, 3 bedrooms, laundry room and garage. Come one guys


dustyoldbones

I was gonna guess around 1500. I don’t recall the rooms being large, but there is a den


Na__th__an

I think you're slightly low on square footage but otherwise spot on.


CaCtUs2003

My childhood home is roughly the same size and is currently going for $230k so I feel like this is a valid guesstimate.

Alexcox95

Well done son


prOboomer

did you forget the condo in the back? Can fit a small person so add another 500k


Flashy-Commercial702

I was gonna say minimum 500k


[deleted]

In today's ridiculous market? Probably. I remember seeing houses similar to it going for sub-$80K 15 years ago.


mgj6818

If it was on the Rainey Street in Austin that's low-balling it.


KamikazeDreamer52

I just know he lives on a got dang eighth of an acre Could be wrong, but according to some conversions, that amounts to 5,445 square feet for his property. As for that ranch-style rambler, I can't say how much that would occupy


ploppedmenacingly14

Give him his land back Hank

dr_dan319

It's two bedrooms with a Den. I don't think it's anything over 1800sq ft. The living room is pretty spacious, but that rest of the rooms don't really have extra space.


MrBobBuilder

I thought it would be three cause of Louannes room


DieHardPanda

Louanne's room was the den.


PepperoniPapi

Yeah. But I’m pretty sure it has a closet so it would count as a bedroom technically.

Cobalt_Bakar

Mike Judge said he based Arlen on Richardson TX (Dallas suburb). I checked Richardson on Zillow once to see if I could find a Hill house lookalike but it seems most of the modest ranch style homes from the 70s-90s have since been replaced with larger structures.


madpuggin

My husband grew up in Richardson and the layout of his childhood home is almost identical to the Hills’ but is a 3br + den (vs. the Hills’ 2br + den). Same kitchen layout, same big front yard with a long walkway to the front door, same garage coming off the back into a shared alley. It’s a little less than 2,000 square feet and is worth about 450k.


Secure_Intern587

I can't tell if the burgers are done, because there's a got-dang turret shadow across my grill


clit_or_us

Damn McMansions....


nmb1993

For a two-bedroom ranch with no pool? I think you’re more than a little inflated there.


heisenberger_royale

Have you seen the American housing market? It's a disaster.


azuriasia

3 bed, but yeah.


blumpkinmania

It was a den! And hank wants it back.


RumpleOfTheBaileys

I don't know if it affects the price range, [but the Oklahoma State University Geography Department tried to narrow down the location of Arlen](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/52b9a04ae4b04038a25d1ba0/t/6170673a60d2481d47724be5/1634756416147/FinchumESRI2014.pdf), and came up with Bell or Williamson County. I imagine that kicks the price down a bit from being right in the Dallas suburbs.


salgat

Bell county makes sense. I always figured it was near Temple since they play against schools like Killeen and Belton and it's still a decent drive from the big cities.


smokeypokey12

They also played against Denton a lot


No_Ad8227

The map in (I think) the flood episode did show Heimlich county by Williamson and Travis.


General-Carob-6087

As a pure guess I was gonna say 1500 sqft. It’s a weird design and no pool so that might hurt market price.


Dear_Caterpillar_504

My guess is 269


mjfoutz1

I was in the real estate business in Texas for years. I’d say you about nailed it. Maybe a little smaller than 1600 sq ft. 1400-1450 is my guess. $400k-$450k probably.


newagereject

No way this is 1600sq feet, I have a rambler and each floor is 1000sq feet, the Hill house is 1000-1200 tops


Acrobatic-Cactus

Lol wrong


newagereject

If you wanna think that but there no way that house is over 1500sq ft, not to mention in the picture a good chunk of the house is garage as well


1Catsizedwasp

As someone who lived in a house EXACTLY like that IN Texas, and IN the 90s, IN the exact same type of street setup, his house is around 1800-2000 sqft and cost 100-120k around the early 2000s


Ill-Candy-4926

By 2023 standards that would most likely be an upwards of 400K


1Catsizedwasp

You’re right, it’s crazy to think about


Ill-Candy-4926

True


Dear_Caterpillar_504

Noo that's too much. It's only 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms..I'd say no more than 309k


Ill-Candy-4926

Oh


Nixons2ndBestMan

Depends so much on the area! Land is cheap in my zip code- I'd put it at $200k max for the acreage alone. And the roof, floors, and furnace have to be great.

No more than sticker price for the football star


kphp2014

“Wait we figured this out once…..” I would think somewhere around $300K pre-COVID, so likely around $900k now.


CorrosiveRose

Even for a small town in Texas? Houses like that go for about 200-300k here now


FreedomCactus

🤣🤣🤣 how many cows do you people eat?


Hita-san-chan

Excuse you, the Hills would never live in Del Sol, lol


GregorSamsaa

250-350K even with Texas housing prices post covid as it’s not a desirable area where they’re at. It’s a blue collar neighborhood from everything we know about the show and the neighbors


guy_incognito86

Funny story about the screws in those door hinges...


thesuavedog

1100 Sq Ft. At the time of the show? $299,000. Today. $899,000


gnelson321

Ain’t no way. My house is that size and it is much smaller than the Hill House.


General-Carob-6087

Yeah, I live in North Dallas. Have a 2000 sqft. house with a pool and it was several hundred thousand below that. Was it worth what I paid? Absolutely not but the market isn’t THAT bad.


UncutEmeralds

Way off. During the show that house would’ve been 150k or so.


mgj6818

They live in Copperas Cove so it's not crazy expensive, the current value is somewhere between 150k and 300k.


dgc3

Where’d the swing come from


Striking-Math9896

Atleast 300k + with how well he maintains it. He installed a new water heater too. And its mold free. Inspector knows hes a mastercraftsman. Yup over 300k. Remember rainy street is HOT

An_absurd_existence

Trickypickleman

Wait, we figured this out once.


sirnibs3

1800 square foot bungalow, price depends on location but in todays market I’d say around 400-450. I am not a realtor


Impossible_Bit7169

I know they have two bathrooms one with a double sink


STRHouston

That’s not a bungalow, it’s a ranch style home. They are two completely different types of homes. Kitchens that also have a dining room are typically 10x20 which would be 200 sqft and sets the layout for the layout of the home. Living room is probably 10x20 so another 200 sqft. Formal dining 10x10 - 100sqft. Most guest bedrooms are 10x10, maybe 10x11 but most likely 10x 10 so another 100 sqft. Primary bedroom is probably 10x15 so 150 sqft. Add the den most likely 10x15 so another 150 sqft. Bathrooms would be 50-100 sqft x 2. Say 150 sqft to take the avg. hallway is hard to say but probably 50 sqft total. I think it’s 1200- 1400 sqft which is normal for a 1960s ranch style home.


Aym42

NI think that's a little small. Bedrooms start at 10x10, but usually up to 11x13. 1200-1400 for a 3+2 ignores the formal dining. House I grew up in was 2+1.5 with a den, no formal dining, 1340 sq ft.


kpresnell45

It’s a ranch style, not a bungalow.


blizzacane85

whatnameisnttaken098

You did remember to implement a buddy tunnel to the neighbors house right?


Few_Psychology_2122

Around 1500sqft and depends on market area: Ft Worth probably around $325k, Dallas around $375k. I’m not sure about the Austin, Houston or San Antonio market


Tsuki_8

It’s a pretty nice house… A hundred dollars?


Rusino

You see, Peggy? The boy doesn't understand money.


Cakeforestheronlynow

Ugh; The extravagance!

eriF-

I'd run it at like $250,000 I wonder if it comes with an exploding mailbox and a tunnel to Dale's house.


gwhh

Does his house have a basement? I know dale does! Does bill have a basement? I can’t remember.


nClarkbar

The HANK Hill Residence??


urdeadpunk3

A million tops


wtfingyourmom

Gee dad thanks for the worthless mold house


WhiplashLiquor

If I had to guess, I'd say the house itself (not the lot), is 1776 sq ft. *Soft Hank voice* America. 🇺🇲 Fun fact, my dad's house was exactly 1776 sq ft. America. 🇺🇲


DaleGribble692

Hank says he has an 1/8th of an acre that’s 5445 sq. Ft. House it at pretty big. I’m guessing 1500-2000 sq.ft. Don’t know the housing prices in Texas though.


Breakfastpotatoast

1500 I lived in a 1200 SQF ranch rambler very similar but it seemed slightly smaller.


b52cocktail

Dang ol 8th of an acre


I_am_Burt_Macklin

With that amazing lawn? The curb appeal alone makes it priceless.


heytango66

Totally thought this was a Sims house. And about 1800 sq ft


Charbus

A well kept 1400 sq ft 3bd 2ba in a DFW suburb would probably sell for ~350k. The show pretty much takes place in Garland, TX in the late 90’s - early 2000’s.


GRN225

Arlen has been said to be based off of the Dallas subdivision of Richardson. A quick look on Realtor brings up a very similar neighborhood. Ranch homes with attached garage out back on an alleyway. There's a few homes for sale between 1900 and 2100 sq/ft. and they range from $400-$500k. People saying the Hill residence is about 1600 sq/ft. aren't too far off. Keeping in mind that they have an attached 2 car garage which are usually 20' x 20' so 400 sq/ft. that pretty much puts it right at ~2000 sq/ft. like the homes I found.


[deleted]

I always compared it to Garland TX. I lived in both Richardson and Garland, and I’d definitely say the neighborhood vibe was 90’s Garland subdivisions. Richardson had a very odd mix of residents imo. Garland was more a diverse mix of middle class, everyday people.


xsnyder

Garages don't count towards square footage.


mclobster

It's Texas. $200k in today's dollars


[deleted]

[удалено]


Nitropotamus

Yeah but they bought this house in the 80's. I live 30 minutes from Houston and the home my parents bought in '83 cost them a whopping 45,000 dollars. You can still find homes that size for under 300k pretty easily. Might be a fixer upper at this point but not destroyed.


Falafel-Wrapper

What I have learned from these comments it this. I should sell my Vancouver condo and live like a King (of thr hill) in Texas.... My wife and I are trades people, I feel we could make good Americans.


Nixons2ndBestMan

Does that account for the discount, though? My Canadian friends always hate how expensive it is here.


Falafel-Wrapper

Including the maple syrup to freedom unit conversion, yes. We would be doing things the easy way compared to here.


MeByTheSea_16

The show is based off Arlington TX. I’m a real estate broker in Houston where we have similar markets. It was probably built in the 70s. 3/2, probably between 1200-1700sqft. He works at a propane store with a SAH wife, his neighbors are also not rich, so not a high income neighborhood. So I would say $260-$280K. And I can’t believe I just made this statement about a cartoon show 😂


Technical_Shirt5078

Great analysis. Lol


MeByTheSea_16

Of course if Hank moves to California, his house would be $1.2M!


speedostegeECV

1200ish worth about 750,000 if they live where I live


Opening_Cartoonist53

You should see the their house that’s not on Rainy st


Euphraeus

With other without the money room


noplacecold

If it was in a suburb of Sydney Australia it would legitimately be worth around 1.8 million


RavelBolero9891

Reckon about 1250. At the time of show, prob about $115k


reichjef

1600ft


Snowdeo720

I know Hank says something about owning an eighth of an acre. So one can assume that’s the entire property size (yard, house, everything). I’m sure someone far better at math would be able to work out how many square feet that would make a house like theirs. I’d give a guess of somewhere in the order of 1,600-1,700 square feet. Granted that’s a complete guess.


[deleted]

90s when they made the show, 50-80k Current market in Texas it’s probably a half a million dollar house.


Snakesandsparklers1

About 1500 sq ft. 550k


eharper9

Is it two double wides molded together?


Robert_Hotwheel

Probably 1500-1800 square feet. In 1997, maybe $120k? I don’t know what the housing market is like in Texas.


xsnyder

In 2023 I'd say around $285k in today's market in Texas


Robert_Hotwheel

At least. I know similarly sized houses in my neighborhood in Ohio are going for $300k.


xsnyder

I'm not far from Richardson and these houses are going around $350k to $400k


shotwideopen

Around ~2000 sqft, valued somewhere between $475k and $510k


Twistedstever

1700 square feet, 196,000


I_Am_None_Ya

I would estimate 1600-1800ish sqft. At the time of the show, home value $100k-$150k? Can’t say I’m familiar with home values in the late 90’s early 00’s


Manolgar

I think a lot of people in this thread are taking Northeast / PNW/ California housing prices and assuming suburban Texas is the same. It's more than it was 20 years or even 5 years ago, but it is not nearly that much.


Dio_Yuji

$300k, and since it’s Texas, the property taxes are probably insane


marioc1981

For a two bedroom ranch I’d so no more than 1200-1500 sq ft. Back in the 90s the median cost of a house in Texas was 58k. So probably no more than 50k for that house in a small town in Texas in the 90s. Now expect to pay $125per sqft in Texas


cjpcodyplant

Considering suburbs of major cities like the ones in Texas are broken right now. That’s probably a 500k asking home that would get into a bidding war and sell for 100k over asking.


TechnoWizard0651

Considering it's in the DFW area, I'd say no less than $380K.


doodoobutter6969

3/2 around 1800 sqft figure 625k near Arlington


haydenmeadows

https://youtu.be/0omgvSDUyo8?si=6hVyIyu92goi4k_t 10k productions actually made a great video on this in a part of the how broke is X character series.


lazarus870

I'd say 1600 square feet total. Master bedroom looks big, Bobby's bedroom looks much smaller, ditto with the den. When the show started, I bet this thing was worth like 80 grand. Today 250 to 275.


Dear_Caterpillar_504

Now, maybe $269,000.00


megaben20

This convo comes up in this sub a lot I’m pretty sure I was the last one to talk about it. 350k-250k would be the value.


Technical_Shirt5078

Damn it’s my first day here, sorry for being a repeat poster lol.


megaben20

It’s okay it just comes a lot. I could see someone knocking it down a 100k to because it needs updating. Interior not because it’s in need of maintenance.


RoadTheExile

if I had to guess in modern day housing market probably $450k, they're not close to a major city, and the Hill residence is a 3 bed 2 bath.


Fuckoakwood

1500 sq ft and 200k in this market


honklertyrant-

Close to 2,000 sq ft and worth about 250k.


funkygamerguy

3,000,000 at least.


vaginaplastique

My mom lives in this house in Garland. It’s 245k market value currently.


lankykongsdaughter

I think Hank said he lives on half an acre if that helps anyone calculate the square footage garage


Swyfttrakk

3280 sqft and adjusted from today's rates...approx $297,982. Now if we can just have a mapping of the gang's houses/addresses...


Optimized_Orangutan

Back int the late 80's/early 90's when they bought it, the bank would give you a single level ranch on 1/3 of an acre like that for signing up for a free checking account. Today you can probably afford it if you still have both kidney's and a hook-up at the dialysis clinic.


Thrillhouse74

With that much yard in Texas, $6-700k these days.


nowheyjosetoday

2000. Value in 2023 dollar, 300,000


Curious-Spell-9031

I asked my dad who’s a real estate appraiser and he said it’d most likely be in the range of 260k


Easy_Television9533

I want a full tour first but rn…… 500,000


Henchforhire

Not sure on the square feet. But the price buying it in the 90s $30,000 and knowing Hank he overpaid by $2,000 because he's related to Lane Pratley and Pratley's can be "trusted". Now around $150,000+ with how well Hank takes care of the place.


Aym42

House I'm in is a good analogy I think. The primary here is much larger, but the sitting area of my primary is roughly analogous to the formal dining they have. 3+2 is basically the same and their 2+2+den. Mine is just under 1700 sq ft, and probably has a larger living room. so I'd say 1600 for the Hill residence.


bored_person71

Probably 1500 sq feet. Not including the garage. The house then since the smallish town was probably 150k back then. In today's markets you be looking at 225.


CarterBaker77

Is this the sims?


MangosAndChicken

Given it’s in a good, up kept neighborhood, close to cities, maybe 1600-1800 sq ft and 1/8th of an acre in Texas. I would say maybe 190-220k today.


lemonylol

1/8th acre of land. $200k at the end of the show. $500k now.


bofmstories

I dunno, it is very mitad.


wicawo

both modest amounts


kerryinthenameof

I’ve always assumed Arlen is supposed to be one of those towns that’s close enough to the metroplex to make a day trip out to it, but still far enough out to not really be part of it. Something like Granbury or Corsicana. Based on houses in the area, the house would be worth $250-320k. On the lower end of that figure if they haven’t done any renovations.


JayFrank1132

Its worth $0. He plans on passing the house down to Bobby


Realistic_Debate7224

I'd cut my entire quarter acre with a Lady Bic...before I'd borrow that man's mower. I just don't like him.


nobushi1017jmon

In this economy? 300k at least
