The House Scott McGillivray Raised From the Dead

As Scott approached Ashley and Tyler's new property, he could probably already sense that something was amiss.<br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the full episode online!</a>

What he didn't know was that this renovation job would be so horrific it would go down in <i>Income Property</i> history.

Scott and the homeowners had to wear protective safety gear just to walk around in this house.

It was one of the worst places Scott had ever seen!<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the full episode online!</a>

Not only were there structural issues stemming from crooked studs, even the tiniest details were just all wrong, from wallpaper on the bathtub and duct tape on the walls to urine soaked flooring and a rat infestation.

The homeowners were especially disgusted and appalled because their own home rests just on the other side of the dividing wall!

Scott declared that the place was inches away from being condemned. They would have to rip the house down to the bare walls and start over if the homeowners wanted to give it a shot.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the full episode online!</a>

Scott knew he had one of his biggest gut jobs ahead of him.

When Scott first walked into the property with the homeowners, they were hesitant to proceed through the rest of the house for a while because of what they saw.

Every little detail, down to the front door, was gutted and replaced. Even the front deck was redone.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the transformation, from start to finish, online!</a><br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/shoppingguide/?epId=315738">Shop the items Scott used in this episode.</a>

Because the house is so narrow, it was hard for the homeowners to imagine having a kitchen, living room and dining room on the same floor.

Scott made great use of the small space, and it didn't feel cramped at all.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the transformation, from start to finish, online!</a><br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/shoppingguide/?epId=315738">Shop the items Scott used in this episode.</a>

The kitchen was so dilapidated it made Scott nervous just to be walking around in it. During the initial tour, they had to open a window to keep Tyler from coughing up a lung!

This space is utterly unrecognizable after Scott is finished with it. After some long, arduous work, Scott was able to replace the plumbing and add a wide peninsula and a dishwasher. With plenty of modern, elegant lighting and all the right finishing touches, you would never know this place was once a death trap.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the transformation, from start to finish, online!</a><br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/shoppingguide/?epId=315738">Shop the items Scott used in this episode.</a>

The main floor went from looking like this dump...

...to a modern masterpiece! Any young, hip couple or small family would be thrilled to rent the unit now.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the transformation, from start to finish, online!</a><br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/shoppingguide/?epId=315738">Shop the items Scott used in this episode.</a>

This bedroom looked like something out of a nightmare.

After the transformation, this extra bedroom became a cute dreamland, perfect for either a young child or a guest.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/shoppingguide/?epId=315738">Shop the items Scott used in this episode.</a>

If you've never seen the inside of a flamingo, this is probably what it looks like.

With all the pink painted over with a neutral white, this bedroom is the perfect fit for a teenager.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/video/ashley-tyler/video.html?v=440787523884&amp;p=1&amp;s=da#incomeproperty/video">Watch the transformation, from start to finish, online!</a><br><br>&lt;a href=&quot;<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/shoppingguide/?epId=315738">Shop the items Scott used in this episode.</a>

This room was cramped and awkward at the start...

...but Scott was somehow able to create extra space by putting the bed into the wall nook, creating a stunning master bedroom.<br><br><a href="http://www.hgtv.ca/incomeproperty/shoppingguide/?epId=315738">Shop the items Scott used in this episode.</a>
