" Yeah this is a beautiful comments actually owned by the couple who owns Kelly's for a speed that change. And obviously this home doesn't need a whole lot of work it's it's pretty good looking as it is but. They've told me that. That this is the home that Tommy Lee jones' character will live and and for those of you who don't know but the company minutes the movie at that the recession inspired movie about. A corporate guys who get laid off I have to take construction jobs and Tommy -- sort of you know please -- a wealthy man in this -- home and the owner of whom told me that they completely renovated his first floor. Being re upholstered couches they basically made his home look the way they wanted it to look but out of the deal he basically got you know some new decorating -- so that it's to keep off and get right keep that he can also -- then you've got a turnaround -- to you know to be the way it was just think if he doesn't like but they did but he said that he -- what they did you know I'm sure it's. Pretty high end decorating I'm sure they're not skimping on any rate so how these kind of deals stars -- he told me that he came home to a pamphlet just win you know the name of the movie in a phone number in his mailbox and he called mixture was legit and it was then. They basically said we'll compensate you will do the decorating and if you want to undo it well and do it so he's going to keep that I talked to a guy in Framingham. -- and so he's the Framingham resident and Kevin Costner is is going to and leave at his house in the movie and he said that. Before they shot scenes at his house last week. They changed his living room into his dining room in his dining room into his living room. So is -- happy with -- having wouldn't he's just confused so he's -- they keep it but it's going to take him awhile to walk to the right place so he was joking that you know great decorating but he's just a little bit. Disoriented so that the senior were just seeing is of a house in Roxbury on for -- Roxbury and you know this is an old mansion it's -- neighborhood staple and you know for years it's needed a whole lot of work and that owner of that house basically is getting a lot of free renovations that's going to play reckons that. That -- going to be a construction site in the film and last week Ben Affleck was seen -- plywood and lumber is if you were constructing house so. The owner of that house is getting much needed renovation -- so they do renovations and that's all paid for and they also compensate on the also compensate homeowners as of now no homeowner has told me what they got on got to find out what they said it's a good deal it's a good deals I think they don't want that they've they've signed Hampshire different. Disclosure agreements but they also were being treated very very well that's -- that's very let's take another look at gas and they're doing extensive renovations to the exterior of land and -- that was scaffolding up for weeks before the shoot and you know that neighbors have basically said this is great you know this is this is a home it's you know. You know very big mansion that that is sort of just -- a lot of expensive repairs like a homeowner for whatever reason hasn't been able to afford to do it so. Good for him that they sort of swung an incentive. What do we do for you you know not totally revamping the whole house but they made it. You know a little bit better enough for them to film on and for the neighborhood -- and it's not a bad deal want to film in my house -- welcome additional capacity and the and give me some money redo my kitchen at the end of luck with that -- Meredith thanks have a good weekend native."
