To Reno or Not in Georgia is the first episode of the 202nd season of the popular show House Hunters. This season follows individuals and couples as they search for their dream homes across the United States. In this episode, we are introduced to a young couple, Mark and Sarah, who are looking to buy their first home in the city of Atlanta, Georgia.
Mark and Sarah are both medical professionals who have recently graduated from their respective schools and started their careers. They have been living in an apartment ever since they moved to Atlanta and are now ready to purchase their first home together. While they both have a clear idea of the type of home they want, their budget is a constraint.
The couple's wish list for their new home includes a spacious living room, an outdoor area, and a home office since they will be working from home. Sarah also wants a bathtub, while Mark is focused on having a space for his hobby, brewing beer. They have a budget of $400,000, and they are hoping to find a home within the city limits of Atlanta or in one of the nearby suburbs.
Sarah has been doing her research and has come up with a list of potential homes for them to view. She has sent the list to her real estate agent, Amy, who has arranged for the couple to view them. The first home they visit is a single-story home located in the suburbs of Atlanta. The home is within their budget and offers a large living room, a spacious backyard, and a renovated kitchen. The home also has an extra room that could be used as a home office or a hobby room. While the couple likes the home, they feel that the commute to work would be too long and would rather stay within the city limits.
The second home they visit is located in the Midtown neighborhood of Atlanta. The home is within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and Sarah's workplace. The home has a smaller living room than they had hoped for, but it does have a spacious kitchen, an outdoor area, and a guest room which could be converted into a home office. The couple is impressed with the location of the home but feels that the price point is a bit high.
The final home they visit is a two-story townhome located in the trendy Old Fourth Ward neighborhood. The home is within their budget and offers a large living room, a spacious kitchen, and two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. The home also has a rooftop deck which could be used for outdoor entertaining. While the couple loves the home, they are concerned about the upkeep of a two-story home and the homeowner's association fees.
After viewing all three homes, Mark and Sarah discuss the pros and cons of each home with their real estate agent. They decide that while the townhome was their favorite, they are concerned about the added expense of a homeowner's association and the upkeep of a multi-story home. They ultimately decide to put an offer on the single-story home located in the suburbs. The home meets most of their criteria, and they feel that the location is still within a reasonable commute to their workplaces.
In conclusion, To Reno or Not in Georgia is an entertaining and informative episode of House Hunters. It showcases the challenges that first-time homebuyers face in finding their dream home within their budget. It also highlights the importance of working with a knowledgeable and trustworthy real estate agent who can guide potential buyers through the buying process. Fans of house hunting shows will not be disappointed with this episode.
