    Episodes included:
    Season 1 Episode 9 "Christina": Christina is leaving town to get marriedâ€Ķ But first, she has to sell her dilapidated downtown home. The good-sized property is in a great locationâ€Ķ But after a month on the market, the house is only attracting ‘flippers.’ Sofie says the mismatched colour scheme, faux brick accents, and ancient kitchen are to blame.
    Season 1 Episode 13 "Toni and Gary": Toni and Gary’s beautiful but boring four-bedroom home has had over 70 showings in two monthsâ€Ķ And they haven’t received a single offer. Sofie says the spotless and de-cluttered home is in great shape, but it makes a flat first impression. In spite of the home’s competitive price, she says, its lacklustre dÃĐcor, ratty sofas, and missing kitchen table are giving potential buyers the wrong idea.
    Season 1 Episode 15 "Carmelina": Carmelina is desperate to sell her three-bedroom bungalow so she can return to schoolâ€Ķ But the property’s been on the market for a month already, and no one’s biting. Sofie says in spite of the home’s charm potential, its mish-mash flooring, oversize furniture (and fish tank), grimy kitchen, and unfinished DIY jobs are a major turn-off for families and first-time buyers.
    Season 1 Episode 18 "Stephen": Listed at $1.3 million, Stephen’s waterfront home features a double lot and incredible views of Lake Ontarioâ€Ķ But after two months on the market, he hasn’t received a single offer. Sofie says for that price tag, buyers want more than just a view. And the home’s tired kitchen, retro bachelor pad vibe, and overgrown garden are a major turnoff.
    Season 1 Episode 19 "Catherine": In spite of its great location, fair price, and more than seventy showings, Catherine’s spacious family home has been languishing on the market for three whole months. Catherine is stumpedâ€Ķ But Sofie isn’t. She says the property looks as though it was last decorated when shoulder pads and leg warmers were in style. The retro 80s dÃĐcor has got to go, she says.
    The Unsellables - After tracking down the most unsightly and ‘unsellable’ listings on the market, The Unsellables team attempts to transform real estate lemons into lemonade. Can the fearless crew get these desperate homeowners to get smart, let go of the past, and prepare for a sale?

    They do know that. A lot of times people are so busy with their lives that they really just don’t see the problem. They get so used to their surroundings so it’s hard to see it. Also, some people need the help and don’t know how to make their home appealing.- Susan

      People don't do wall to wall carpets in Canada very often anymore. Most people prefer hardwood with area rugs. The lack of area rugs in in this particular series is probably owing to the fact that it's filmed in 2007? And at that time, there was a trend where everyone was ripping out their wall-to-wall carpeting to expose the original hardwood underneath. Watch people like Alexandra Gater or The Sorry Girls... (Both Canadian TH-cam channels and they often use rugs).

    Interesting and valuable point made in this video - “first time buyers don’t have money for renovations.” I think it’s reasonable to assume buyers about to go into close to half a million dollars of debt for their first home must be financially savvy and capable enough to buy a gallon of paint and spend a weekend painting a room, but too often it doesn’t compute. The loss is theirs when they can’t see beyond easy DIY projects, and instead pay thousands more for a home that’s ‘perfect.’ It’s all at a cost they’ll pay many times over for.
    I heard something last year that, if true, is terrifying. It was that Canada doesn’t have 15 or 30 year mortgages, that all mortgage interest rates change after 5 or so years, and it all happens at the same time. If it’s true, most Canadian homeowners with a mortgage must be living on pins and needles, and totally unable to plan their financial future with any accuracy. It must destabilize the entire economy, having only effectively adjustable rate debt on most people’s greatest investment. I’d call it running a country by whiplash.

    So they painted white walls beige, painted over mid century walls, destroyed vintage kitchens â€Ķ They were also complimenting a renovation that turn a brick row house into a cold and “modern” one. With painted bricks 😂 Trends come and goes but white walls will always come back and keeping the original features of a home if in good condition and work around it, is always be a better idea.

    I don’t like that a lot of story’s around the houses in the show are staged. It took more than one year to finally be in the show and in that time most of the owners has gone forward with their life. They have separated or changed jobs. So the story’s why they need the service as when they applied are no longer current.
