Not your average suburban couple, Adam and Christina’s edgy and spacious three-bedroom back-split has been on the market for four months…And in spite of the fair price and eight open houses, they haven’t received a single offer. Sofie says the ultra modern décor and funky furnishings are at odds with buyers’ expectations. And since the market is softening, they’ll have to pull out all the stops.
In order to better match the home to its neighborhood, Sofie comes up with a $3,900 plan. Eager to move closer to family, Adam and Christina are on board from the start. And as Anthony and the team neutralize the color scheme, expand the kitchen, and refresh the exterior, Sofie gives the couple a crash course in real estate.

@samanthairish8467 3 года назад

seeing this at a time when grey walls have been absolutely the trend, this couple was just ahead of their time

@claudiacooper1934 3 года назад

If you happen to care what the trend is.

@dcoughla681 3 года назад

I agree, Samantha. I think this series was made around end 1990s/early 2000s. The after decor looked a bit like an impersonal motel chain but probably suited the market at the time.

@rebeccacampbell585 3 года назад

Well kind of. They didn't quite accessorize properly for the gray trend. But the gray trend is now over.

@rebeccacampbell585 3 года назад

@@dcoughla681 pretty sure this was about 2008

@ShastaAnn 3 года назад

Samantha Irish: I agree with you that this couple was ahead of their time because watching this episode in 2021, I dont see any reason why this house didn't sell. I think it would by today's standards. It was well-kept, clean, uncluttered, finished, and had "neutral" paint colors. The only thing the couple did that I ddn't care for was painting the staircase black. I even think the curb appeal was fine.

@Flusenmonster 3 года назад

That`s the cleanest house I`ve seen so far in this show. I wonder....are people so unimaginative....how can they possibly not see the potential?

@mariak1785 3 года назад

Agreed!!

@baskervillebee6097 3 года назад

Some people don't have visual imagination. They just can't picture a place differently. The guy said, "This is the stuff I like, but I can't dream up."

@daisycassidy2448 3 года назад

The before house was so clean! Personally I didn't see anything wrong with it or the colors, but I'm one of those people who can look beyond that and imagine my own furnishings. Cute couple.

@JamieM470 3 года назад

I agree....I like the improvements they made to the banister things, the kitchen, & the exterior paint, but the rest of it was just their taste in decor, which they would be taking with them. They obviously take good care of their home, because it was super-clean, with nothing broken, no marks on the walls, etc.

@inesolujic2534 3 года назад

This was hands down one of the cleanest and most well organized houses on this show. Can't believe it was deemed unsellable.

@Prieze868 3 года назад

You sound like you got vision and style if you can imagine your own things and it looked beyond the aesthetics

@Prieze868 3 года назад

They just an Urban couple with great lots of style I mean some basic Amino nice but too much is a boring shade

@crystalclear6864 8 месяцев назад

Yea it was nice 👍but new buyers really don’t see beyond it

@qfason5836 3 года назад

I love the goth babies with the skull brackets 🥺 This house is like the cleanest nicest looking house on this whole series. I don’t see anything wrong with the house

@lorijackson4355 3 года назад

I was going to leave a comment stating the same thing!

@lorijackson4355 3 года назад

I guess I did !

@margaretalbert69 3 года назад

I like the house

@angelabacker1177 3 года назад

I loved the "before " aesthetic. The exterior and kitchen were definitely improved, but the rest of the house was super stylish and clean. I would have bought it as is.

@gowkstorm 3 года назад

This had to be one of the LEAST offensive properties featured on the show. It was clean, tidy, uncluttered and didn't look like someone had let a colour-blind chimpanzee loose on the walls with the out-of-date contents of somebody's fridge.

@patriciakelly69 5 лет назад

I loved their house before the transformation. I am over 60 yrs and I can’t believe that people couldn’t see the potential. There was a few things especially the kitchen. But I loved that the style was different. I’m not bothered about what neighbours do with their homes.

@Pauline-ir2tr 3 года назад

The grey walls gave a neutral color to the house and the red and deco design leaves with the current owners. It's like having a blank slate to change to the drapes and furnishings that the new owner would like. Something as simple as a black banister rail could easily be painted white to match the other woodwork trim.

@colleendarley9019 6 лет назад

The house was pretty neutral beforehand. There were small, cosmetic things that needed changed, sure but as someone who works in real estate that house was already sellable

@virginiamoss7045 3 года назад

I agree except for the kitchen; it was way too small.

@barbarastedillie1336 3 года назад

Watching this in 2021. I absolutely love the color scheme of the decor. I don’t understand why this beautiful, immaculately clean home in great condition would put anybody off.

@lindalopez2826 6 лет назад

The house that they used for comparison was SO DATED! Really old cabinets, and furniture. Adam and Christina's house was so much nicer.

@karmad4491 3 года назад

And it had a RED dining room. And a drab living room and boring master BR. I loved their "before" house.

@hannahj489 3 года назад

Remember this show is from 2008, it is so ultramodern that it is now run of the mill more than 10 years later

@synthiamcbride7194 3 года назад

I also noticed that the 2nd "comparable" that was shown, the kitchen had charcoal grey walls.

@plp4618 3 года назад

I couldn’t believe the “comparable” house. I had just watched another episode that had the burgundy walls and heavy, dark furniture and the hostess said that was the reason that house had not sold. No consistency.

@Pauline-ir2tr 3 года назад

If she was fixing the comparison home, she would have painted the wood and lightened the red dining room.

@gaurigatha 3 года назад

What a gorgeous and tasteful and clean house! And the house she showed for comparison is just sad and tasteless! And where is the pantry now? No room for food items at all anymore. Also this couple is so nice and accommodating! They have no attachments and just go with the flow.

@ArnaGSmith 5 лет назад

Oh, this is the first time I didn't like your comparable house choice. And, believe me, I have looked at and loved every other one!

@Strega_del_Corvo 3 года назад

I find it weird that they kept using terms like “grown up” or “adult it up” when referring to the referb. The style might not be your cup of tea but it seemed very grown up and clean.

@laineygann7713 5 лет назад

Might be helpful for a buyer to take a measuring tape along instead of relying on color to dictate room sizes.

@patriciakelly69 3 года назад

Looking at their house before the make over I love it. It’s got a unique style. Classy and clean.

@janicescott7338 3 года назад

Wow, Anthony is brilliant! What he did to the kitchen is amazing. And I love what the fresh exterior paint accomplished. The comparison house was not a good example at all. Very outdated and “generic”. Loved this couple.

@synthiamcbride7194 3 года назад

While I agree that the outside of the house needed updating and adding prep space to the kitchen was a good idea, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the grey walls and black bannister. I do not care for the red/black decor, but grey is a neutral and many colors and types of decor will go with it. Instead they painted the wall that boring, boring oatmeal beige.

@Autism_Forever 7 лет назад

Oh my Gods, what a great house and great people!!! I would totally buy this house BEFORE the transformation! :)

@amandakaye902 6 лет назад

Anna Gray totally agree with you. There is absolutely nothing wrong with their house before.

@sarahann530 6 лет назад

24 viewings and 8 open houses and no offers tells a different story

@ladyfirst2797 3 года назад

Wow their house is the best I've seen on this show, its impecably clean. If it was now, not 4 yrs ago, they would've SOLD over the asking. These shows are so OLD.

@katyh.530 6 лет назад

A slightly lighter tone of grey would be bang on trend nowadays!

@sassygrammy1258 3 года назад

If people cannot see the potential in this home, they have no chance of finding one.

@godlove77 3 года назад

The house is clean and neat. As this is an earlier episode, the gray color might not be trendy. If they were selling the house in 2017, 18 something, people would have bought it in a jiffy. Also the lady reminds of Abby scuito from NCIS..

@CrankyGrandma 3 года назад

I really love the original decor! This couple was indeed ahead of their time

@cathyblackhall3448 5 лет назад

Good grief that comparable house was dull.Their house was better.

@lorijackson4355 3 года назад

Cleanest house I have seen on here and they have kids!

@teddy9770 6 лет назад

The house was completely fine before. What do I care about wall colours and furniture when buying a house? Many things can be changed easily and for very little money. I can't believe people are dismissing an amazing house like this because it needs a paint job. And as soon someone slaps some peachy paint on the walls they love it because they 'don't have to do anyting'. You will always have to do SOMETHING before moving into a new home. Don't tell me people are that lazy!

@vaderladyl 3 года назад

Looks like they truly are that lazy.

@sharong8511 3 года назад

Sorry Teddy, but yes, people ARE that lazy.

@yootoob4516 6 лет назад

Such an adorable family of underground-spirits. Their decor is BEETLEJUICE! BEETLEJUICE! BEETLEJUICE! My favorite change was the kitchen. The impression was immediately "miles of counter top space." They really took lovely care of that home. Hope it sold quickly for them.

@Pauline-ir2tr 3 года назад

Agree that the kitchen upgrade was great. That was the best and simplest kitchen upgrade I've seen in this series.

@stoptalkingpleaseandthankyou 3 года назад

Who forgot to steam those dining room curtains?? 🤣🤣🤣 Also, I really like this couple

@heathersmith8549 2 года назад

The kitchen and the new curb appeal really upped this houses class. Their design was great before but the remodel made it something that more buyers could picture themselves living in.

@kathyklein5255 3 года назад

Beautiful home, inside and out. Funny that they choose this home to "improve" the curb appeal. So many of the houses they "fix" have horrendous outdoors but they skip right past it.

@robinjones394 3 года назад

The best update was extending the super tiny kitchen... especially with cabinets from the basement! It really doubled the prep space and would allow for 2 cooks...

@opalmoon2256 5 лет назад

This is the first time the before was not that bad. Its was clean n the colors didn't jimp into your face.. Love both before n after.. 😉👍

@sasamafrass 3 года назад

The husband's face "yes it is very generic" 🤣🤣🤣

@shecamt 3 года назад

I actually like the way the owners decorated the house. I don't like the bedroom floors but aside from that I can't see why it didn't sale. It's not cluttered and a person should be able to envision their stuff in the space easily.

@poodlegirl55 5 лет назад

I love the interior, but it doesn't match the exterior so probably not what people are looking for.

@loripeotter2871 3 года назад

I think their house is incredible to begin with. I could see myself in it , much more than the comparison that was shown to them. It is not my color palet but love the design and the room accessories.

@usha9807 3 года назад

I have seen a lot of these shows and I agree with most of Sofie's comments and prospective buyers. I don't get it on this house, it is clean decluttered and stylish and you can see all the potential.

@bobettebryan6589 6 лет назад

I don't get the aversion to the gray as it's all the rage. I do think the red needed to go. I love that breakfast bar.

@cathyblackhall3448 3 года назад

Because a decade ago the grey wasn’t popular.

@jb6712 3 года назад

This show is from 2009, not 2020.

@Pauline-ir2tr 3 года назад

At least most of the red in the house was accessories (drapes, pillows, wall art, etc.) Those are the easiest (and least expensive) things to change.

@jkalb1744 3 года назад

I think their house was better than the comp house.

@lihab 3 года назад

I love that there's a bunch of shots where they didn't blur Christina's sniper rifle necklace. LOL

@debeesdays1321 3 года назад

I think the house is great on the inside, maybe adding a bit more counter in the kitchen and updating the front of the house, but, the decor is great!

@evas.5127 3 года назад

I definitely prefer the black bannisters over those gruesome oak-brown bannisters! What's wrong with black?

@BlueSaphire70 7 месяцев назад

This house actually looked fine when it was unsellable. The lack of counter space and storage in the kitchen as well as the country columns were the only two things that truly needed fixing. However, I want to commend this couple for keeping their house so clean, neat, and organized. That is a rare occurrence in these programs!

@theprimitiveblackhatsociet8274 3 года назад

I love their style. Most people have no style, it is nice to people with some real style. Not to mention, their house is CLEAN. This is a grown up pallet, it is just not boring cream and white. What is so great about being average...it is a shame people can not look past the décor they are not going to get. SMH

@VioletJoy 3 года назад

I'll bet the main issue was the lack of cabinets and counter space in the kitchen. Thinking of having to hire a cabinet maker would scare off a lot of buyers. Everything else was perfectly fine. Sure, the railing looks better white and the bold rug doesn't appeal to the general public, but neither of those would be deal breaker for buyers. The outside does look better with the lighter beige instead of the old brown trim. It looked more neutral afterward, but there were no major problems to begin with. I thought it was fun, but then again, I have black and that same shade of red in my home now. ❤🖤❤🖤❤

Blurring her necklace is weird. Their house and decorating is amazing.

@shastac1396 3 года назад

That comparable house is hideous in every way possible. Why on earth did they use that house?

@virginiamoss7045 3 года назад

I agree, but maybe it was the only thing available at the time.

@rebeccacampbell585 3 года назад

Because its an example of quickly selling in the neighborhood. If it sold quick, people liked it.

@Tortise02 3 года назад

Lovely young family...and possibly the nicest 'before' house you've shown. The enlarged kitchen workspace was definitely a plus, but I'm amazed that some buyers can't see past the colour or your bedding and curtains...

@bunnymad5049 6 лет назад

Lovely couple.

@raew5263 3 года назад

Loved 💕 those grey walls b/c they go w/lots of colors. Great layout. Did it sell?

@juliecooper3989 7 лет назад

@dianethompson9525 3 года назад

The first comparative house looks dated! I love their before decor' but it didn't match the outside until painting

@harleyquinn31 3 года назад

The before is adorable.

@erynlasgalen1949 3 года назад

I call BS on the comparable house. That burgundy snd blue paint would have been painted over immediately if Sophie were in charge. And yet it sold quickly. Imagine that. Edit: She painted the exterior brick. This will become a maintenance nightmare in the years to come as the paint chips off. I know this ftom experience.

@diannadunford8098 3 года назад

The first comp house received a msg from 1980 wanting their kitchen cabinets back ☺. So happy to see furniture not from Ikea. The changes inside and out turned out beautiful.

@juliana790 2 года назад

I find the house Sophie was showing to this nice couple totally tasteless , whereas theirs was utterly clean and stylish. But: The changes are very attractive, too!

@noelbecker7002 3 года назад

I love the original color!

@mrgreene3290 3 года назад

I personally LOVE the grey/white combo; though one room looks a bit darker on the grey which could be softened to a lighter grey... not a beige person at all. House looks great on inside with the decor toned down a bit. Kitchen definitely needs more space... but I still love the grey/white combo. To tie it together, would paint the outside white and grey on the cross woods.

@cheskydivision 3 года назад

I think the grey and black work. Put the white table in the kitchen.

@andreamoore6477 3 года назад

GAG!! on the bedding choices yall use!! WTF???

@lucieudem 3 года назад

The realtor had a point, this house is for first home buyer. Any money is going to the down payment so the thought of painting or anything is overwhelming. And a lot of younger people are a bit clueless about renovating

@noniluscious13 6 лет назад

the comparable house she showed this couple looks drab and boring.... is that what buyers really like??? must have lots of boring people wantiing to live in the burbs...

@colleendarley9019 6 лет назад

When looking for a house, yes. People want a blank, neutral slate. It helps them imagine their own stuff in the home. A bit silly I know, but there it is.

@laineygann7713 5 лет назад

Agree. It's burgundy walls in dining room--makes me slightly ill.

@pegsbarton6353 5 лет назад

Yes sooo boring. In other programmes she takes a couple with a house like this and tells them they have to snazz it up!! I love the featured house, real style. Agree the kitchen needs more work surfaces but an island would deal with that.

@hmwjones 3 года назад

I would much rather see more of the behind the scenes stuff they run at the end IN the show! Why go to two or more comparison houses to fill up time when they have this charming footage?

@jeanettekays1954 3 года назад

I love their living room. The one thing I would have done would be to remove the CDs from the kitchen.

@ankiking 3 года назад

Love the style of this couple! And this is my favorite kitchen update!

@jkalb1744 3 года назад

If there are any guys watching this. Do yourself a favor, learn how to fix, paint, build, ect. Your girlfriend / wife will love ya for it.

@culturepopauctions148 3 года назад

There's was nothing wrong with this house, I can't believe they turned it into an 80s muted, boring crap hole yuck ! Even for back then, how did they not love this house. New drapes for $250, ya right 👎

@dgexpressllc7450 3 года назад

Minimalist contemporary- that is the trend atm

@carolynellis387 2 года назад

Huge garden and a swimming pool! Great before the reno

@jenl.4051 3 года назад

If the buyers can see past a few pieces of black decor and gray walls to see what a great house that is, then the buyers are the problem, not the sellers or their decor.

@irenerincon3611 5 лет назад

The comparable house had deep red walls and grandma’s furniture... And then Dracula’s master bedroom! It’s a total mismatch! I bet whoever bought it didn’t know about the existence of the unsellable house, which, by the way, is full of black and white furniture, the combination that has made a billionaire out of Ikea... That’s as generic as it gets. Maybe the unsellable wasn’t gothic enough for the buyers of the comparable one.

@HelloCaitieO 3 года назад

This family is so cute! when the kids are teens i wonder if they are going to rebel by dressing ultra grandma conservative

@claudiaramirez1018 3 года назад

They definitely liked the number 69 lol. It was the house number and it was in the asking price.

One little thing bothered me: the top shelf above the new kitchen area. To me, it should continue to the wall.

@Mernie9 3 года назад

Why do I watch this show? I'm never wow'ed, and the wall colors and window treatments consistently disappoint. The carpenter is good, but really, Sofie just doesn't have it.

@coletteduff2762 3 года назад

I accept that the changes were needed to sell the home. But why are people so hung up on furniture and cushions it’s not like it stays.

@ShastaAnn 3 года назад

OMG. Are you kidding me with that first comparable house?? In any other episode, that would've been the "unsellable" house that Sophie would've neutralized!! That red and black master bedroom (8:28) looked like a bachelor's wanna-be playboy love nest. All it was missing was the mirrors on the ceiling.

@biggyziggy5777 7 лет назад

Why have the pictures on the walls and her necklace been fuzzed out ?

@lyonstill3139 7 лет назад

COPY RIGHT INFRINGMENT

@jennifers9281 6 лет назад

her necklace is shaped like a firearm (at one point they forgot to blur it)

@mapleleaf0 6 лет назад

Yes, I noticed they forgot the necklace several times. There was one point where it was on again off again in the same scene.

@laineygann7713 5 лет назад

I thought it was to avoid ppl asking where to buy one like it--they often will do that.

@tddybear 3 года назад

Lmao! If she were brought into the comparable home as one that wouldn't sell she would've destroyed them (I say that affectionately) over the red walls in the living room, the dark, clunky furniture in the master bedroom, & the dated kitchen and say she totally understood why it didn't sell,,, I don't get it

@inesolujic2534 3 года назад

The comparable house was 👎👎 looked terrible and dated, even for when this show was filmed. The before house was super clean, organized, and cohesively decorated. Most of it might not be my taste, but wow, are people seriously lacking ANY sort of imagination?! That house was super sellable in my opinion. Also, it's interesting that some of their design choices are super popular today - like the arched lamp in the living room, the dining chairs, grey paint, big round black rimmed mirror, etc.

@breezeh1127 3 года назад

I really loved their house before. The design and decor. I think they need to just warn people that it's a cozy cottage exterior with a modern interior. I think that would have helped. Why do they keep blurring her necklace?

@irenerincon3611 6 лет назад

$250 for one pair of curtains???

@lindalopez2826 6 лет назад

Irene Rincon I know right?.I was thinking that too. I 'm pretty sure they could have gotten them at walmart for 30.00, especially since they are not their style and they are leaving them for the new owners.

@annak1371 3 года назад

They did great on the outside of the house. But inside, other than the pillars in the kitchen area, they really should have changed the bedroom floor. It looked really outdated in my opinion. I liked the colors they started out with.
