In episode 7 of season 16 of Love It or List It, homeowners Amanda and Grif's family home is in desperate need of an update. Amanda has always loved the house and all its heirlooms, but Grif feels it's time to move on to a newer, more modern home that better suits their family's needs.

When designer Hilary Farr first walks into the house, she's struck by its quaint charm and the gorgeous hardwood floors. However, she also notices that the home's layout is incredibly cramped, with small rooms that don't flow well together. Amanda loves the vintage feel of the house and has inherited many special pieces of furniture and decor from her family, so Hilary has her work cut out for her in creating a design that will meet the needs of both Amanda and Grif.

Meanwhile, realtor David Visentin takes Grif to see a few properties that meet their criteria for a new home. Grif is excited by the idea of a more modern, spacious house that will allow their family to grow and thrive, but he's also hesitant to give up the memories they've made in their current home and the sentimental value of their family heirlooms.

Back at the house, Hilary gets to work on the renovation. Her plan is to knock down a few walls to open up the main living space, which will make the house feel much more modern and airy. She also suggests creating a more functional layout for the kitchen, so Amanda can continue to cook and entertain without feeling cramped or overwhelmed.

As the renovation gets underway, Hilary faces a few challenges. The home's electrical system is outdated and needs to be completely rewired, which adds time and expense to the project. Meanwhile, she's also having trouble finding the perfect balance between preserving Amanda's beloved heirlooms and creating a more modern, cohesive design that will appeal to both homeowners.

Over on David's side, he's found a few properties that he thinks will meet Grif's requirements. One house in particular has a stunning open-concept living area, perfect for their growing family. However, when David takes Grif to see the property, he finds that Grif is still hesitant to give up his sentimental connection to their current home.

With both the renovation and house hunting underway, tensions begin to rise between Amanda and Grif. Amanda is excited to see the changes that Hilary is making to their home, but Grif is worried about the expense and the potential for the project to go over budget. Meanwhile, David is growing frustrated with Grif's indecisiveness and his reluctance to commit to a new home.

As the Love It or List It team works to transform Amanda and Grif's outdated home into a more modern and functional space, the couple must make a difficult decision about their future. Will they stay in their beloved family home, or will they choose to move on to a more practical and spacious house that better meets their needs? Tune in to episode 7 of season 16 to find out!
