House Hunters Season 16 Episode 9 Sayonara, Starter Home

Sayonara, Starter Home is the ninth episode of the sixteenth season of House Hunters, a reality television series that follows individuals or couples as they search for their ideal home. This episode features a couple who have outgrown their starter home and are now looking for a larger space that can accommodate their growing family.

The episode begins with the couple, Sarah and Tyler, explaining their reasons for wanting to move. They currently live in a small two-bedroom house that they purchased as their first home. However, with a toddler and a baby on the way, the couple is in desperate need of more space. Sarah and Tyler have a budget of $400,000 and are searching for a four-bedroom home with a backyard for their children to play in.

The couple's real estate agent, Karen, takes them to three different properties in various neighborhoods. The first house they see is a spacious four-bedroom home with a large backyard. The property is located in a family-friendly neighborhood with good schools and plenty of amenities nearby. Sarah and Tyler love the house, but the asking price is slightly above their budget.

The second house Karen takes them to is a modern four-bedroom home with high-end finishes and an open floor plan. The house is located in a new development with a playground and park nearby. Sarah and Tyler are impressed with the space and design, but they feel that the neighborhood is too quiet and lacks the community feel of their current neighborhood.

The final property they visit is a four-bedroom house with a large backyard and a pool. The house is located in a popular neighborhood with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. Sarah and Tyler love the outdoor space and the location but are concerned about the pool being a potential hazard for their young children.

After seeing all three properties, Sarah and Tyler sit down with Karen to discuss their options. While they all agree that the first house was Sarah and Tyler's favorite, it was also the most expensive and would require them to stretch their budget. The couple decides to make an offer on the third property, with the contingency of having the pool either removed or secured before they move in.

The episode concludes with Karen presenting Sarah and Tyler with the keys to their new home. The couple is thrilled to have found a larger space that they can grow into as their family expands. They are excited to start the next chapter of their lives in their beautiful new home.
