Ohwell October 30, 2015 Share October 30, 2015 (edited) Indianapolis guy... Pretentious much? Also, I why hide the engagement ring? I spotted it right away but she kept covering it up. I just did not like him. It began at the beginning when they were discussing how they first met. He was a speaker, she said she was sitting in the audience and saw him and couldn't take her eyes off him. When she said that, he was sitting there beside her like some king on a throne, and didn't say something equally complimentary about her. If I were an intelligent, attractive 22 year old med student, I wouldn't give his pretentious ass the time of day. The house was ok I guess.

aguabella November 6, 2015 Share November 6, 2015 (edited) Extremely familiar with the Tiburon level of buyers so interesting to see everyone's reaction. Agree, they seemed liked a nice family. JMHO but they may not have sounded as particular and picky about the finishes b/c Marin County buyers, at this level ($4M+), conduct their house hunt with the expectation that they will spend at least another 200K or more (my guesstimate), post-close, to finish the home to their specifications. (JMHO, as always.) The wife hated the L-shaped jog in that kitchen and its size and appliances so she'll have it redone within a year or so. At their level, they wouldn't bat an eyelash if they dropped $100K (or more) to gut, expand and finish that space. For example, in the last home, the wife didn't care for the marble counters in the mbr and wondered about the expense of changing them out. The husband, in his low key manner, said something along the lines of no worries - we'll just gut it and take our "volume discount". During the episode's preamble, they mentioned the wife doesn't care for homes that have shared bedroom walls. She didn't limit that to the master - like many parents (!) - but any bedroom whatsoever. The husband mentioned that the kids' "must-haves" included a playroom, a suitable location for their trampoline and their own bathrooms. How many parents / house hunters even consider their kids' desires, let alone report them as "must-haves"??? So, IMHO, they're very particular about location and a home's fixed characteristics, i.e. whatever's impossible and/or difficult to change. But WRT finishes, they don't worry about them b/c they know they'll spend whatever $$$ are required to bring them up to their specs. Anyway, in my experience, that's how buyers at this level think and conduct a house hunt. P.S. Many people would finish the secret room (in the other house) as a secure, panic room. Anyone wonder how the eventual buyers felt about the fact that their home and specifically, that room, had been previously aired on national television? At this $$$ level, these buyers value privacy over almost everything else, again, in my experience.

laredhead November 7, 2015 Share November 7, 2015 The Chicago flipper woman is back. She's the one who likes to blow out walls right and left. She was fixated on buying a Chicago style house with brick, then in the final scene where she was showing the remodel in progress, it looked like all of the brick had been removed. Maybe it was covered up and I couldn't see it. I don't think the finished product is going to look like a Chicago style house that she wanted. The man accompanying her was dubbed a real estate investor, and I bet he's fronting some of the money for that project which is why he was so concerned about not overbuilding for an area and not trying to do too much. She was having none of that though, as with the first episode we saw when she not only gutted that house, but dug out the basement as well. I am sure we will be seeing her again and the finished remodel of this house on a Where Are They Now episode. i liked the yard space in the 3rd house, but would never want to live in the flight path of O'Hare.

When he said he wanted pigs and cows, I thought he was nuts, but not only that, upkeep, including food and vet brill, is insanely expensive and time consuming. His kids are far too young to be of any help. With the house they bought, with the dirt road, its going to get real old, real fast, when those rough Michigan winters hit. When you have animals, you can't just sit in your house during a snowstorm because he will still have to take care of the animals.

To be able to retire AND buy a $4 million house in one of the most expensive places in the country to live! And have the wife not work.

I remember the covered bridges and the small town nature, but it's been years since I've lived there. The winters are brutal. My grandfather was the chief of police of Conneaut; back in the day, my father worked on the railroad (Nickel Plate). It's a three hour drive down from Buffalo where a number of HH shows have taken place in recent months. I still have family in that part of NY.

I can't decide if his mother named him that or if he bequeathed himself that name, but either way: naw. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3252-house-hunters-buying-in-the-usa/page/37/#findComment-1700105
awaken November 12, 2015 Share November 12, 2015 (edited) Enjoyed Ohio woman. She seemed like someone I'd like to be friends with :) I liked that she didn't want all the "typical" things like ensuite bathroom, stainless steel, open concept, etc. Actually seemed positive or laughed about some of the outdated features of the homes, and not endlessly complaining. Although I never want to hear "big girl toys" ever again! Hmmm, boyfriend "Life" who has a "foreign company"? I must say though, he sure did come through in a major way on the home renovations! I wonder if they met there, or if they were already together and he was coming with her? They didn't really say. I just can't get over home prices there! I live in a major metropolitan area, and those houses would be in the millions....130K!!!!!

awaken November 12, 2015 Share November 12, 2015 Super cute Colorado girl with 5 bikes looking for a house. She wasn't annoying and best friend who was even prettier wasn't annoying either. What a nice change of pace for HH. She chose an older home but it wasn't cheap at $340,000. I guess Colorado is the hip area for young people thus the high cost of living. The girls even met a random good looking guy at the bar in the end. I doubt he was random and was probably one of their friends. All in all, a nice HH episode. BTW! Whoever marries that girl is going to be a lucky guy. She seemed so nice with a good head on her shoulder. I thought she was a bit odd-looking and had a strange voice, myself, but she seemed like a cool and fun person! I enjoyed that they looked at more interesting, older homes. I knew they were not going to choose the one next to the highway, busy street, or motel! I wouldn't. Enjoyed this ep! 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3252-house-hunters-buying-in-the-usa/page/37/#findComment-1700410
biakbiak November 12, 2015 Share November 12, 2015 Did Ohio woman explain why she didn't want an ensuite? I wasn't paying that much attention. I mean I can see not making a requirement or even caring at all but not wanting it seems weird. The paint colors she chose were hideous.
