I'm a cat lover, and have had cats my entire adult life (wasn't allowed to have one as a child), and all they want is food and a comfy place to sleep. Being able to watch birds is a bonus. I never let my cats outside. Our current kitty showed up on our deck in the winter cold and hungry 4 years ago. She moved in and has never looked back. 6 Link to comment
AnnaRose February 24, 2018 Share February 24, 2018 Yep, she was super annoying about the cats. Ugh. That reminded me why I rarely watch House Hunters anymore. I also hated her whining that that perfectly fine kitchen was 'dated'. She made a terrible impression during her '15 minutes of fame'. 1 Link to comment

All she said was "it's a little dated" which I assume was thrown in to make it appear the hour commute house was remotely in contention. I didn't actually mind her because she acknowledged that she was a crazy cat lady and they were signing at least a 3 year lease. 2 Link to comment
laredhead February 24, 2018 Share February 24, 2018 Interesting about the lease requirements in Ghent. I wonder why there are such stringent rules about that. The Ghent woman drove me a little crazy with her upspeak at the end of almost every sentence. I have had cats for many years, but I have never once thought about them when buying a house or renting an apartment. Yes, it's nice to have a view, but they will survive w/o one. This couple was so robotic like, and once again I fell asleep watching and had to rerun it to see which place they chose. 3 Link to comment

I still judge peopke for their behavior on this show even if they are "acting" she still chose to play the role of overbearing asshole. Considering the daughter spent the preceding 3 years working on a cruise ship and is now moving 10,000 miles away from her mama; I have a feeling that her mother wasn't doing much acting at all. And who in the heck thinks that finding an apartment with two bedrooms so her room mate can be her bestest friend is a good idea? Getting struck by lightning is far more likely.

seacliffsal February 25, 2018 Share February 25, 2018 As for the daughter moving to Australia and her mother's insistence that she get a room mate, I was shocked at what the mother expected the room mate to do for the 'honor' of living with her daughter. The mother really did expect the room mate to be a best friend/mother figure to her daughter. "Oh, someone to check in when to know that you got safely home." Um, no. It's not up to the room mate to keep tabs on the daughter and to check her in. And, if the daughter got a room mate with issues, the daughter would be locked into the higher rent and a potentially stressful living arrangement. I actually really liked the studio apartment and I wish the daughter well. Am I the only one who ever wonders if when filming the show the House Hunters have "renters/buyers" remorse when shown some of the decoy properties? There are several episodes during which I just cannot believe they would prefer the one the chose over some of the others. I think that would be the worst thing about agreeing to be on this show-the potential to see something truly wonderful after already signing a contract or lease and not being able to get out of it. 4 Link to comment

I did not hear what either of them did for a living in South Africa. Can anyone who saw it enlighten me? She was definitely used to, or wanted to become used to, the finer things that his money couldn't buy. It's hot in Viet Nam. Very much like our climate here in south Louisiana which has very high humidity in addition to high temperatures. I couldn't live there w/o A/C. Link to comment

CherryAmes February 26, 2018 Share February 26, 2018 I just saw an episode with a young couple looking for a house in Goa, India. Overall they were cute and not as annoying as I expect people on HH to be but honestly, if you're going to get the people on your show to give a fake back history you really need to make sure that they don't have an Internet presence like a blog! 2 Link to comment
chocolatine February 28, 2018 Share February 28, 2018 Nebraska to Barcelona: I loved the realtor's expression when the HHs said they wanted a centrally located three-bedroom for $1000/month. It's like they haven't done any research about housing prices in Barcelona at all. They ended up going with a two-bedroom in Eixample for $1200/month. I absolutely love Eixample, so that would have been my choice as well. Most people who come to Barcelona want to stay in the Gothic Quarter, but that area is super-touristy, and so cramped that if you reach through the window you can almost shake hands with your neighbor across the street. 2 Link to comment
Zizzlezazzle February 28, 2018 Share February 28, 2018 Welp, finally a pair of house hunters that melted this cold, black heart: the Omaha couple was adorable. Sure, their initial budget expectations for Barcelona were naive, but what a great twist at the end that instead of going under budget far outside the city center, the husband was insistent on putting his wife's happiness first--but her first vocalizing that she would be happy in the place in the suburbs was awesome, and I wish we saw more of that on this show rather than those couples with one partner who brags about always getting his or her way at the end. But don't worry--cold black heart was perfectly intact for the woman moving to Australia and her delusional mother. Super mean, but I kept squinting at her hair wondering, "is she wearing a Bumpit? Is that a requisite for cruise directors?" And speaking from experience, making friends roommates or trying to force friendship from roommates is a great way for cohabitation to get real messy real fast. I also wanted to hide under the table when Poland guy was spinning for the dancing "friends" he was entertaining at the end of the episode. I get the feeling most of these "new friends" magically generated in just two or three months' time are people pulled off the street or hustled up via the Craigslist "gigs" section for $100 a pop and a signed waiver... 3 Link to comment
hoosier80 March 3, 2018 Share March 3, 2018 I saw the Iceland episode (and listened to it later with tv on as I tried to fall asleep). Iceland looks fantastic, but I kept thinking how often are those kids going to want to go to Iceland once they get older and have school activities as they get older? And the after scenes showed them going to a waterfall, which yes, it was amazing, but the rest of it was kids playing in the yard or going to the park. I was just thinking she could have found something outside of NYC, upstate NY that would allow for more outdoor activities? I know her whole thing was she hated driving, but there wouldn't be a train or bus to take them outside of NYC to something closer? And they kept saying only a 5 hour plane ride, but you have to add on the hour or more arrival time at the airport (at least NYC), plus commute time to/from the airport. I just kept thinking there had to be a closer alternative, even as nice as it is in Iceland. I was also wondering if she was keeping the kids away from the other parent? I also thought the last house would have suited them the best, but she wanted to be in town, which - if she wanted to be with nature, why live in another city? I understand that having a car in another country might be a hassle, but wouldn't homeownership also have difficulties? The apartment like buildings might have some sort of maintenance or super, but nothing was said that about it being an option. Also not sure why she didn't rent, just to check it out first, then make a long term property search. It didn't sound like they'd be there every weekend, but like every few months or when she could take a vacation or break from work. 7 Link to comment
laredhead March 3, 2018 Share March 3, 2018 Hoosier, when this episode first aired and comments were made on this site, someone who knows the buyer offered a little bit of information about the episode. They also said that she rents out the apartment when she is not there. I cannot remember how long ago those comments were posted here, but someone else might be able to help you locate them.

Meh, I didn't care for the Nebraska couple. I thought he was kind of a dick. Also, her crying about her dead father and him wanting her to have adventure just seemed a little too pat. It's not like they were 20-year-olds, exploring life for the first time. If I recall, they said their children were grown and out of the house. Also, how boring was life in Omaha? They made it sound like they were escaping certain death if they remained. I turned off the Australia woman and her mother. They were both unpleasant and unlikable. I noticed they've been having a lot of house hunters in Poland lately. Was there a sale? For the black ex-pat, I think what was left unsaid was that the men were gay and either boyfriends or involved. I think he took the apartment that had the "detriment" of playing children in the courtyard after school, which was the best one. The European couple moving to Poland via Bali got on my nerves. The husband "Gary" was a douche with a capital bag. I think the apartment they chose was the nicest, but they were the second couple shown who didn't remediate their mold/leak problem before moving in (the first was the family of three -- the ones with the annoying nickname for their child).

mojito March 6, 2018 Share March 6, 2018 CA couple to Lisbon She was insisting that she wanted a place with Lisbon flavor. When they saw the place with the graffiti all over it and the barbed wire on a balcony, the agent reminded her that this was LIsbon (which is what you asked for, isn't ?). The boring place with all the nice wood looked better to her at that point. I thought that was the nicest place. Hope they find the fountain of youth in Lisbon. 5 Link to comment

Ritalin Smoothie March 7, 2018 Share March 7, 2018 SmithW6079: I also noticed lately that quite a number of episodes feature a Polish wife (Malta, Krakow, etc). And I just remember that the husband from the Lyon episode was also Polish. Lisbon: Oh boy, loud, obnoxious actor couple who think they were hilarious. That was a miserable show to sit through. Once again, she had to play up the "charm" factor. To me, local charm is always associated with poorly insulated older houses with small rooms and outdated furnishings. Give me a modern apartment and I'll get the local charm by sticking my head out of the window to look outside. 13 Link to comment

aguabella March 8, 2018 Share March 8, 2018 (edited) About the Polish episodes and participants: Casting goes in waves. They normally film 4-6 episodes, simultaneously, in any given geographic area. For HH, the U.S. version, they often leave the episodes in the can and air them periodically over the next year. Casting's tougher for HHI. Given that, those episodes typically air 6 months after the completion of filming, in waves. Polish spouses in other episodes? Sure, the casting team uses those contacts to locate add'l participants. So, that's not surprising. Same idea for business contacts, too. Ever notice the waves of yoga practitioners or B&B owners? You guessed it! ETA - noticed the other day my dvr includes Hanoi and Cambodia - not surprising. Edited March 8, 2018 by aguabella 3 Link to comment
mojito March 8, 2018 Share March 8, 2018 San Antonio to Abbateggio, Italy If you want a cohesive story to understand this move, fuhgeddaboudit, you weren't going to get it here. She's in her 50s, has a few adult children, wants to live in this Italian town that she's apparently researched but has never been to. She brings along her "work husband" but we have no idea what kind of work she does or if she plans to continue working once she moves. She has $70K and wants a place with two bedrooms and a balcony. We have no earthly idea what the appeal is to her about this place except that she wants to drink wine. That's all we get. She wants the Italian experience, but rejects the typical Italian home (according to the agent) where you walk into the place and you're in the kitchen. I guess what she wanted was an American-style place with some stone and plaster on the walls, a red and white checkered tablecloth, and maybe a brick oven. We have no feel for why she wants to be there or what she wants to do there, except veg on her terrace and drink wine. Of course, her budget doesn't get her what she wants. This is one of those episodes that leaves you cold. While Arbateggio is an attractive little inland town, the homes weren't particularly interesting, let alone special, there was nothing impressive about the town, and you have no feel for any sort of potential for an exciting new life for the homeowner. Hey, I guess whatever works. It just didn't make for interesting TV. 10 Link to comment

I agree they were trying too hard to be hilarious. Good lord, yes. He was so obnoxious. He's the guy at the party who wants everyone to notice him, but you just end up feeling embarrassed for him. And, please, just shut the fuck up about the stairs. I find it funny (and by funny, I really mean annoying), that all those people who want the "charm" of the city they're moving to (especially Americans, who expect the countries they move to to have remained as they were 100 years ago) also want all the modern amenities they enjoy in the USA. I thought the couple moving to Lyon, France, via Costa Rica was annoying and pretentious. I was torn between the two city apartments. I liked the one with the river view, but I could see the appeal of the first. The wife's whining about the renovations was over the top. The husband was right, renovating an apartment was not the same as building a restaurant in another country -- but they put in $300,000 worth of renovations and went over their original budget. How is it almost a year later their furniture hadn't arrived? The woman moving to Italy -- good lord, what was in her chest? Cantaloupes? I'm not a fan of people who joke, "It's all about me." I liked the place she choose, even if it needed work. I found the friend annoying with his "where would we stay? " when they were looking at the one bedroom. That's why they have hotels. 4 Link to comment

I can't imagine what drew her to a town of about 400 people in the middle of nowhere. Where's she going to do all her clothes shopping? Funny that she was supposedly only there 1 month and she has two American friends over for wine. I also don't see the appeal of a balcony/terrace off your bedroom.

So, they're getting out of bed, going downstairs, making coffee and carrying the pot upstairs so they can sit on the balcony? Who does that? I have a patio directly off my kitchen. All I need to do is open the slider and step outside and half the time, I don't even bother doing that. If I had to go back upstairs just to sit outdoors for morning coffee, I wouldn't do it. There was something fishy about that gal's backstory. No way do I believe that she randomly chose some obscure tiny Italian town to live in. Something (more likely Someone) drew her to move there. 12 Link to comment
slasherboy March 9, 2018 Share March 9, 2018 Agree with all the posts regarding the woman moving to the tiny Italian town. At the end, when her friend had left, I truly felt this weird empty feeling on her behalf (yes, I know that sounds crazy, but it's true) and I actually thought, "Well, everybody I know is gone and I'm totally, 100% alone now." It wasn't a good feeling. Then she and her "friends" standing on the balcony with their wine. I know very few people (one) who have their morning coffee on their balcony, and even less who sit outside with their cocktails in the evening. Oh yes, it happens, especially, I would think, somewhere like Florida where the weather is mild at night and they may be retired with few oblilgations and aren't inside helping the kids with homework, putting the dinner dishes in the dishwasher, dealing with "life". Then, yes, maybe. I'd love to know why she moved there and how long until she moves back. Is a town truly a town with a Walmart? 6 Link to comment

The prices for real estate there are incredible. How do people afford to live there if they don't have good paying jobs? Not everyone can be a doctor or a millionaire. I loved the house in the rural are and could live there very happily, but as we know, it probably was a plant and not even for sale.

I'm glad they didn't go for the house off the beaten path and stuck to condo living on the beach. She allowed HHI to film her in her bathing suit, which I gotta admire her for. Maybe it's just coincidence. Or maybe it's the geography of Panama, being narrow with mountains and lying between two oceans. I rarely see footage of that place with blue skies and sunshine; it's always overcast. Quite the opposite of what you see up north in Puerto Vallarta. 3 Link to comment

He said he never would have imagined that scenery could cost them a bedroom. I'm glad they didn't go for the house off the beaten path and stuck to condo living on the beach. She allowed HHI to film her in her bathing suit, which I gotta admire her for. Maybe it's just coincidence. Or maybe it's the geography of Panama, being narrow with mountains and lying between two oceans. I rarely see footage of that place with blue skies and sunshine; it's always overcast. Quite the opposite of what you see up north in Puerto Vallarta. It must have been coincidence. I've been to Panama a couple times and the sun was shining a lot. 3 Link to comment

Kohola3 March 13, 2018 Share March 13, 2018 For once I did like the back story for the military couple moving to the Netherlands. They seemed very sweet and very nice together and to each other. Wow, those houses were really spectacular and so shiny clean! Is that the thing in Holland, spotless properties? I would have snatched up any one of them. Unfortunately they made him repeat the same line about 15 times about her being lonely. However, I think that was a producer-driven thing because they didn't have widely disparate wishes so there was nothing to argue about! 7 Link to comment
mojito March 13, 2018 Share March 13, 2018 Albuquerque to the Netherlands Now that was a different wrinkle for a HHI episode. The non-working wife wants to live in the country and the working husband who worries about her being isolated. I'm so tired of people saying, "Yes, but it isn't..." Of course, if the house is one style, it's not going to be another. Stop stating the obvious! 6 Link to comment
