Just remember folks, half the population has an IQ under 100. And yes, some of what you see in HGTV is staged (they also use reaction shots that aren't contemporaneous with what is being discussed at the time).
10 pm MDT "My First Place: Lessons Learned". Looks like they are revisiting the buyers. Should be interesting.
i just watched it last night on my DVR. interesting, however, i would've liked to see the folks who got the creative financing....did they not want to be interviewed for the follow-up?

maybe they couldn't find them because the house was foreclosed on and they had to move!
I LOVE Househunters, My First Place, Property Virgins, but I also wonder what these people do for a living. Most of the houses the people on these shows buy are upwards of $350 k, some of them are in the 700k-1 million dollar range.
I have been considering buying a home, so these shows always give me good ideas, but boy do I feel poor. I could never afford to buy the types shown on House Hunters.
I wonder when these shows were filmed? They have young couples with families moving to Phx. AZ. I think the prices have dropped considerably. It seems these homeowners would be upside down on their loan today.
Talking about babies.
I always wonder if people planning to have a family (or with the woman already pregnant) think ahead. They'll visit a 2 bedroom house or appartment, the second bedroom being a very teeny tiny room and say it would really be the perfect nursery, but hello! the kid's gonna grow and might need a bit more space, or you may want to have another kid soon afterwards, or even will have twins, so at least a bigger bedroom or an extra bedroom would be better, whatever the case. Especially when such bigger places are available in their price range and they end up choosing the smallish one because it has a better kitchen or curb appeal!
Hey, they'll just keep moving into a bigger and bigger house every few years!
and what is really wrong with having formika countertops, of course granite is better, but they seem to make it like a crime if heaven forbid one has laminate......but don't tell anyone, because I have, Nooooo, please.....don't make me say it..... please, no I can't.......
OK, I admit it I have laminate.............................shoot me!

my countertops are made out of an old bowling alley floor and a wood tabletop we found at a salvage store! gasp!
