- May 4, 2017
In House Hunters season 2017 episode 70, titled "Debating Fixer-Upper vs. Move-In Ready in Hawaii," we follow the journey of a couple who are looking to purchase their first home in Hawaii. The couple, who have different ideas of what their dream home should look like, are in a dilemma as they debate whether to choose a fixer-upper or a move-in ready home.
The episode begins with the couple discussing their preferences and expectations for their future home. The husband is more interested in finding a fixer-upper that they can personalize and customize to their liking. He envisions a home with potential that they can gradually renovate and make their own. However, the wife is more interested in a move-in ready home that requires little to no work. She prefers a home where they can immediately settle down and not have to worry about any renovations or repairs.
Their decision to move to Hawaii is mainly driven by their desire for a laid-back lifestyle and year-round outdoor activities. As they begin their house hunt, they quickly realize that the Hawaii real estate market is highly competitive and challenging, especially with their different preferences.
Their real estate agent shows them three properties that fit their budget and criteria. The first property is a move-in ready beachfront condo that offers stunning ocean views and luxurious amenities. Although the wife is impressed by the condo's modern interiors and prime location, the husband is hesitant as he feels that they will not have the flexibility to customize the space to their liking.
The second property is a charming fixer-upper in a peaceful neighborhood that offers great potential. The couple is excited at the prospect of having a spacious backyard and being able to renovate the home to their personal style. However, the husband is worried about the cost and time that will be required to do the renovations.
The third property is a move-in ready house that is located in a quiet and serene suburb. The house offers ample space and an open floor plan that the wife loves, but the husband finds the home too generic and lacking character.
Throughout the episode, the couple weighs the pros and cons of each property and discusses their priorities and preferences. They also face unexpected challenges and disappointments as they navigate the competitive real estate market.
In the end, the couple must make a tough decision on which property to choose. Will they go with the move-in ready condo, the fixer-upper with potential or the generic move-in ready house? Tune in to House Hunters season 2017 episode 70 to find out.
