Ep 3. Brother And Sister Search for a Family Vacation House

Brother and Sister Search for a Family Vacation House is the third episode of the first season of Beachfront Bargain Hunt. The show follows siblings Melissa and Josh as they embark on a journey to find the perfect family vacation home on the beach.

The episode begins with Melissa and Josh explaining that they grew up in Connecticut and spent every summer at their grandparents' beach house in Rhode Island. Now that they have families of their own, they want to create similar memories with their children but in a new location – the Delaware beaches.

Melissa and Josh have a budget of $400,000 and are looking for a home with enough space for their families to come together but also have their own privacy. They'd like at least three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a yard for entertaining.

Their real estate agent, Tammy Hadder, shows them three potential properties, each with its own unique features and challenges.

The first property is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom beachfront condo listed at $419,000. The condo has been recently renovated and has stunning ocean views. However, it is located in a high-rise building and has monthly condo fees of $900. Melissa and Josh worry that the fees may not fit into their budget in the long term.

The second property is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom single-family home listed at $389,000. The home is located in a quiet neighborhood and has a large fenced-in backyard, perfect for entertaining. However, the home is not beachfront, and Melissa and Josh are concerned about the proximity to the beach for their children.

The third property is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex listed at $379,000. The duplex is beach block, meaning it is only steps away from the ocean. It has a shared backyard and front porch but is being sold as two separate units, which may not provide enough space for Melissa and Josh's families to come together comfortably.

Throughout the episode, Melissa and Josh consider each property's pros and cons and debate the importance of budget versus location. They also discuss their individual priorities for the new beach house and how to balance them as a family.

In the end, Melissa and Josh make a decision that they feel is best for their family, and viewers get a glimpse of their new beachfront vacation home. The episode ends with a heartwarming scene as Melissa and Josh reflect on how excited they are to start making new beach memories with their families.

Overall, Brother and Sister Search for a Family Vacation House is an enjoyable episode of Beachfront Bargain Hunt that showcases the importance of family and finding the perfect home to create lasting memories.
