Love It or List It, Too is a real estate and design show that brings stunning transformations to homes that may seem beyond repair. In season 5 episode 3, titled "Love at First Sight," the hosts Jillian Harris and Todd Talbot are once again tasked with the challenge of convincing homeowners whether they should love their current home or list it for a new one.
In this episode, a family of four has outgrown their starter home and is searching for a property that can accommodate their growing kids and their business. The couple is divided on whether they should stay in their current home or find a new one. The wife believes that their current home has the potential to be transformed into their forever home with the right updates and redesigns whereas the husband is confident that a new home would be the best option and free them from the confines of their current space.
Jillian feels that the homeowner's vision of their ideal home is not feasible with their current layout and she is determined to show them the possibilities of redesigning and remodeling their current home. She begins by opening up the closed-off living room into a spacious great room, removing dated features, and creating a modern, open concept that turns the space into a perfect socializing hub for the family and their guests. Jillian's thoughtful finishing touches and sophisticated design choices put the wow factor in the renovation as she pushes the homeowners into falling in love with their old home all over again.
On the other hand, Todd works diligently scouting new properties for the couple, taking into account their needs and budget. He finds a few potential homes that could fit their bill, but when the family visits the properties, they realize that the new homes are not of the same caliber as their old house. Todd finds himself in a tight spot, as the wife is ecstatic with the new renovations done by Jillian, and the husband is unconvinced that the family’s needs are met in their old house. To make matters worse, Todd has to work within a tight budget, and the new properties are either too expensive or require a significant remodel that is outside the family’s limits.
The episode is filled with ups and downs as the hosts face hurdles and challenges in their endeavors, but the hosts demonstrate their vast expertise in design, renovation, and real estate as they navigate their way through the couple's dilemma. Ultimately, the homeowners are left to make the choice whether to love their renovated old home or list it for a new one.
