In season 1, episode 21, the show heads to Kaneohe, Oahu, HI to help Brian and Suzanne Parnell sell their home. The Parnells have been struggling to sell their home for over a year and are eager to get it off their hands.
Upon arriving at the Parnell's home, the host, Tanya Memme, assesses the property. The house is large with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, but it is cluttered and outdated. Tanya is quick to point out that the Parnells' love for tchotchkes and collectibles is a big part of the problem. There are too many personal touches that make it difficult for potential buyers to envision themselves living in the home.
The first step in the process of getting the Parnell's home ready to sell is getting rid of the clutter. Tanya brings in a professional organizer, who helps Brian and Suzanne sort through their belongings and decide what to keep and what to get rid of. This is not an easy process for the Parnells, especially since they've been living in the house for so long, but with Tanya's guidance, they are able to make some tough decisions.
Next, Tanya brings in a professional cleaner to deep clean the house. The Parnells have been living in the house for over 30 years, and it shows. The cleaner tackles everything from the floors to the ceiling fans to the windows. Once the house is clean, it's time to start working on some updates.
One of the biggest problems with the house is that it is outdated. The kitchen, for example, has old cabinets and countertops that are in desperate need of an upgrade. Tanya brings in a kitchen expert who helps the Parnells choose new, modern cabinets and countertops. They also install new appliances and lighting fixtures, giving the kitchen a fresh, updated look.
Another area of the house that needs updating is the master bathroom. Tanya brings in a contractor who helps the Parnells choose new tile for the shower and floors. They also replace the old vanity with a new, contemporary one. The end result is a beautiful, modern bathroom.
With the clutter gone, the house cleaned, and some updates made, the final step is staging the home. Tanya brings in a professional stager who helps the Parnells rearrange their furniture and decor to showcase the house's best features. The stager also brings in some new pieces of furniture and decor to give the home a more cohesive and modern look.
After all the hard work is done, it's time for the Parnells to put their home back on the market. They have high hopes that the updates, cleaning, and staging will attract more buyers. The real estate agent brings in a steady stream of potential buyers, and the Parnells are overjoyed to receive an offer.
