Love It or List It, Too season 9 episode 5, titled "Finding the Right Layout", features homeowners who are struggling with their current layout and are torn between renovating their home to make it work or finding a new one altogether. Hosts Jillian Harris and Todd Talbot come in to offer their expertise and help the homeowners make a decision.

In this episode, Jillian and Todd meet Brenda and Marc, a couple who have been living in their home for over 20 years and have raised their family there. However, their current layout is not working for them anymore. The family room is too small for entertaining, the kitchen is cramped, and the guest room is too far away from the main living area. Brenda and Marc are considering whether to renovate their home or buy a new one.

Jillian's plan is to create an open concept space that connects the kitchen and family room, making it more functional for the family and guests. She plans on moving the guest room to a different area of the house and turning the current guest room into an office. Additionally, she plans on incorporating some unique design elements such as a built-in aquarium and a custom-made coffee table.

Todd's plan is to find a new home that fits the family's needs. He shows Brenda and Marc several homes, each with their own unique features. One home has a large family room and a modern kitchen, while another has a large master suite with a walk-in closet.

Jillian runs into some unexpected plumbing issues during renovation, while Todd struggles to find a home that meets all of the family's needs within their budget. Brenda and Marc are torn between their love for their current home and the desire for a new beginning in a new house.

In the end, the couple must make the tough decision of whether to love it or list it. Will they decide to stay in their newly renovated home, with its unique features and personalized touches? Or will they decide to start fresh in a new home that better fits their lifestyle? Tune in to Love It or List It, Too season 9 episode 5 to find out.
