Back in 2018, Earnhardt and his interior designer wife, Amy Earnhardt, documented the renovation of their 150-year-old Florida property as part of DIY Network's Renovation Realities. They transformed the historical home into a stylish coastal retreat.

In 2020, Earnhardt listed the property for $3.7 million, and the 1,980-square-foot home eventually sold for $3 million in 2021. However, the sale has left Earnhardt wanting for more.

"Damn it, I regret selling that house. Should have sold the one we had and that we had had down there for a while. I wish we would have kept that house and not sold it... You know, we listed it. They told us not to list it higher than we listed it. It sold immediately in a couple days. Like, shit, I should have listed it higher," he said. [43:26 onwards]

"I don't know. I just we just got off that house too quickly. I kind of regret that," he added.
