Apparently you don’t have to be that qualified an agent when the agent on the July 18, 2011 episode doesn’t know how to write her own contract. Totally agree with js!

And that I respect to many make believe shows. I can’t believe they only get $500! I think it is RIDICULOUS that they pay $500 – yes, it is still $500. The participants should get at least $5000!

They were real professionals! I mean, you know when you see it, but if you are only “allowed” to view three homes – that could easily turn out for the worse. I suppose it’s the draw of being on tv. I would think most people do it just to be on tv, so they’d prolly do it for free. I always thought it odd they only featured 3 homes, but decided they must actually look at more and HGTV picked the 3 frontrunners. Although that might explain why sometimes they “don’t pick” a house based on something ridiculous like paint color in the bathroom. For filming purposes House Hunters only films people that already have a property, otherwise it is too much of a liability for them to film because people may change their mind on what place to pick, or they may not even want a place in the end. I love watching from the perspective that I get to see real estate and find out the asking price. That the House Hunters programs are staged doesn’t suprise me. A New Jersey couple can't agree on a fixer-upper or a move-in ready home. ……. I will give you a little insight to the Canadian HGTV shows , they do casting calls often and they more often than not DO NOT PAY the participants , they normally do not pay to have reno’s done either , the home owners foot the bill and are only considered if they have loads of cash to get the job done , which is rediculous , I mean how can they not pay for content , come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a bunch of you know what…. Oh, and she was told to lie about all kinds of details. That’s a little disappointing but I still like the show. It bummed me out, but then it made sense. I like House Hunters, but I really miss all the decor shows…Decorating Cents, Design on a Dime, Vern Yip’s show…I know they still run them in reruns during the day, but goodness me, they need more in Prime Time…not just Saturday Night (and by the way, in my neck of the woods even Divine Design doesn’t come on Saturday Night until 1:00 am…it ‘s very frustrating.). Also amazing is the number of people that are “buying” in the Caribbean that want oceanfront properties. I guess this won’t keep me from watching, but now I’ll just pay more attention to the buyers to see who does a better job acting! Hawaii. I like this show. Ever notice how the house the participants choose is almost always EMPTY when they walk through it on the show for that “first time” and the other two are still furnished? 149 talking about this. And I loved that show, too. One of the most annoying things about the show is they don’t tell you when it was filmed so it’s impossible to tell if it was a good purchase or not. It’s one of my favorites:) Location, you can always paint, recarpet, etc. The other two choices that are filmed, are only shown to allow viewers the option of making the choice themselves.”. A couple gave up their dream house to give three girls a second chance. I just found this website for Will Roadhouse – he actually seems legit to me? thinking back to how these house hunters object – some making complete a%*es of themselves – to features of homes is laughable. I looked them up to see how their surf school is going – surprise! A singer wants to find a home of her own to return to. For the record, as a BAC, I too do not like to hear the Lords name taken in vain, maybe that is why I have noticed the difference between real life and TLC. Maybe I’m jaded because I live in L.A. but I figured everyone knew this. (Did I mention I love your blog???) everything is all about the mighty [$$$$$$$$$$]. Re House Hunters, I guess most people don’t remember the original show. But when it comes down to it you get to take a peek inside three differnt houses every show!! It is still $500 for four full days if filming. Someone out there has it way worse than you. Unfortunately, there are days when they have HH marathons. The bottom line is the show is total BS and most of the properties at would be affordable are a P of S! =-. Which actually made real estate in VA appear much cheaper than it is. I guess I’ll just watch it differently now. It prevents the problem that we sometimes see on “Property Virgins,” in which the house hunters don’t end up choosing anything at all. Sounds like it’s even more staged than I realized. Why is the color of the walls such a big deal when buying a home. That’s prettys sweet. .-= Kirsten´s last blog ..Radio Silence =-. On 23rd June 1995, Drew Pritchard, the star of the Discovery and Quest’s Salvage Hunters, moved into a Methodist chapel in the Conwy countryside in north Wales. Not too surprised though. For one, she’s already lived in the house she supposedly picked out on the show for several years. Who can film all of that?! He was already developing and trying to promote and sell units in his development in Escondido before he went on TV and pretend like they are discovering the town. and why do the realtors show them such obviously unsuitable houses? That explains all the bad acting! I think people would be far interested in seeing old episodes of Design Inc. or past seasons of Sarah’s House. They don’t announce them…it just happens an a random day here and there. I still like the International version best. O_O “No way. .-= Michelle´s last blog ..Wednesday =-.

It Dont Matter To Me- At All I kinda look to these shows for what to expect…of course also doing my own research.. to think that they already knew which house was picked is sad…..I always thought the walk thru’s were annoying ..especially the wives who dont work who complain about “dirty carpets” and ” this color does not work for me”. The kitchen is Awsome! Many years ago, when House Hunters first went on the air, my buyer clients and I were asked to participate. I am simple like that. Thanks for the great post! All I want is to see lots of different houses. House Hunters is an HGTV reality show about homeowners looking for a new place to live. it just seems more realistic. .-= Angela @ Peony Patch´s last blog ..Foodie Friday: London Broil, Part Deux =-. I always wondered how staged these shows are. When these people look at the house, they NEVER look at the furnace or the electricity. I’m not surprised. She stood her ground. Are they indeed the actual final 3 houses the couple has been looking at? Since the story wasn’t about me but was about the clients, I was the very quiet real estate agent – I didn’t say much at all, which isn’t usual when I’m showing a home, but that’s how they wanted it. You never lose that special touch and constantly come up w/ great ideas – what a blessing you are to home-lovers – on every budget!! Something Different! Furthermore, it isn’t just sometimes fake – it is ALWAYS fake. I wasn’t sad. Thanks for the info! Jul 6, 2019. ‘Completely derelict. I find myself watching HGTV less and less these days. It doesn’t really bother me. I figured out years ago that the home searchers already bought one of them when they were acting like they were looking for a home. Well…I never really thought about it, but randomly contemplated how it was narrowed down to 3 houses. My brother’s friend was on an episode in Dallas and he gave the scoops on how it works. Forgot password? I still love the show, but miss Suzanne Whang. The houses are the real stars of the show. Now I know and now its not so unfair. They use your electricity, your house, your everything and pay you $500???? Knowing the “inside story” will NOT cause me to stop watching. 2021-05-07 20:00:00 2021-05-07 21:00:00 Mix-er & Mingle RTL returns, this time in Tommy's hometown of Houston, TX!
