- May 22, 2012
A young couple, Derek and Mariah, have just graduated from college in their hometown in the United States and are ready for a new adventure. They have decided to move to Gold Coast, Australia to start their lives together as a married couple. Derek has always been interested in Australian culture and has been to the country before on a study-abroad program. Mariah is excited to start a new chapter in her life and explore a new culture.
The couple is looking for a two-bedroom apartment or house that is in a safe neighborhood and within walking distance to public transportation. They have a budget of $1,200 per month but are hoping to find something cheaper so they can explore the city and take advantage of all that it has to offer.
During their search, Derek and Mariah are shown three different properties by their real estate agent. The first property is a small two-bedroom apartment in the heart of the city. While the location is perfect for their needs, the apartment is a bit on the small side and doesn't have a lot of natural light. The second property is a large three-bedroom house in a quiet suburb. The house is perfect for entertaining and has a large backyard, but it is out of their price range.
The third property is a two-bedroom townhouse in a gated community that is within walking distance of shops and restaurants. The townhouse has a small backyard, which is perfect for their dog, and has plenty of natural light. The property is also within their budget and they are both impressed with the location and the safety of the neighborhood.
After viewing the properties, Derek and Mariah have a tough decision to make. While they love the location and amenities of the first property, they both agree that it is too small for their needs. The second property is out of their price range, and they decide that it wouldn't be practical to stretch their budget for the sake of space.
Ultimately, Derek and Mariah decide to go with the third property, the two-bedroom townhouse in the gated community. They are both excited about the location, the price, and the overall safety of the neighborhood. The couple is eager to explore their new home and start their lives together in Gold Coast, Australia.
Throughout the episode, viewers get a glimpse into the culture and lifestyle of the people in Gold Coast. The city is known for its beautiful beaches, vibrant nightlife, and laid-back atmosphere.
