As the 85th season of House Hunters continues, episode 3 entitled "Picky in Kansas City" takes viewers on a journey through one couple's quest to find their perfect home in the heart of Kansas City, Missouri.
The episode opens with real estate agents Sally and Jane meeting with their clients, the extremely picky couple, Amanda and Dave, to discuss their ideal home specifications. Amanda and Dave have a long list of must-haves, including a large backyard, a finished basement, an open floor plan, and plenty of natural light. As the agents start to narrow down the search, the couple expresses that they are mainly interested in new builds that are move-in ready and have plenty of modern updates.
The first home they tour is a stunning new build with an open floor plan and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. As they walk through the home, Amanda and Dave express their excitement over the beautiful finishes and the modern layout. However, when they get to the backyard, they are disappointed to find that it is smaller than they had hoped for, and there is no finished basement. Despite their initial excitement, the couple ultimately decides to pass on this home.
The next property Sally and Jane show them is an older home that has been recently renovated. The spacious backyard and finished basement check off some of the couple's must-haves, but as they explore the house, they notice some outdated features that would require renovations. Amanda and Dave express their disappointment with the outdated features, and Sally and Jane note that renovations would be necessary to make the home meet their standards. In the end, the couple decides that the renovations would be too much work and ultimately decide to pass on this home as well.
For the third home, Sally and Jane take Amanda and Dave to a sprawling new development on the outskirts of Kansas City. The development boasts large, move-in ready homes with modern finishes and plenty of outdoor space. As they explore the property, Amanda and Dave are thrilled with the square footage and the up-to-date features, but note that the location is a bit further from the downtown area than they would like. They also express concern about the lack of mature landscaping in the development. Despite these concerns, the couple is impressed by the home's overall value and decides to strongly consider it as an option.
As the episode progresses, Sally and Jane show Amanda and Dave a few more homes that meet their criteria, but none seem to fully meet their standards, causing the couple to feel a bit discouraged. Finally, the agents take them to one last property, a newly built home with all of the modern amenities they could want, including a large backyard and a finished basement. The couple is thrilled with the features of the home and begin to seriously consider it as a top contender.
In the end, Amanda and Dave are left to decide between the new development home and the newly built property that they were most impressed with. As they weigh the pros and cons of each home, they come to a final decision that surprises even themselves.
Overall, "Picky in Kansas City" takes viewers on a journey through one couple's distinct taste and high standards as they seek out the ideal home for their family. Through each property toured and decision made, viewers are given a glimpse into the challenge and excitement of the homebuying process.
