In this episode of My First Place, titled "Buyers Market Bliss," viewers follow the journey of several homebuyers as they search for their perfect first home in a buyer's market.
First, we meet newlyweds Kelly and Pete who are looking for a spacious home with a yard for their dogs. They have a budget of $350,000 and quickly realize that there are many options available in this current market. Their real estate agent shows them a variety of homes, including a fixer-upper with an expansive yard that has potential but needs some work. Will they decide to take on a renovation project or go for a move-in ready home?
Next, we are introduced to single mom Karmel, who is looking for a cozy home for herself and her young daughter. Karmel's budget is around $200,000, so her options are more limited than Kelly and Pete's. Her real estate agent shows her a few smaller homes, including a charming bungalow with a big backyard that is within her budget. Will Karmel be able to envision herself and her daughter living in the space?
Lastly, we meet newlyweds Jibreel and Chiquella who are looking for a spacious home for their blended family of six. They need at least four bedrooms and a yard for the kids to play in.
