    THANK GOD for Conservation Officers! They were invented for the likes of Habib. To protect buildings from IGNORAMUSES who should NOT be let loose in a listed building. That is a BEAUTIFUL Art Deco building and Habib hasn't a clue. This is VERY UPSETTING watching him destroy things that are well built, OUT OF PURE IGNORANCE.
    Bless you, Sarah, for trying to EDUCATE the boy. "Oie..."

    Every episode I want to tear my hair out or throw something at the screen at how incredibly, naive, stubborn or just plain dumb these people can be and then the next episode comes along and it happens all over again. And Sarah is patient as a saint.

    Sweet young couple. Although total newcomers, they were able to learn, take advice, and while two week course on plumbing and plastering sounds pretty minimal, at least he did do that. They really put a lot of their own sweat and hard work into it. Plus they knew how to economize, finding a kitchen for $500. My hat is off to them

    “The paperwork wasn’t up to scratch. There was a lot of paperwork so I didn’t read it.” So I didn’t know about the 75K or the listing restrictions.

      The thoughts of an idiot. I just bought a 1948 brick home with over 1700 square feet. I read the purchase agreement twice before signing. He's clueless.

      Section 20 work on flats is hell. I sold one with 4 of them outstanding - 3 were under appeal, but the money had to be held in escrow until it was settled. It took 2 years.

      Habib is such an idiot with no experience, no style and no idea. 1930's Art Deco is a specific design style and involves experience and research to get it right. Just as well mummy was there to bank roll his mistakes. SMDH!

    I get the young couple taking a big risk. Even if they screw up there's plenty of time to find success. Their house looks great. The clueless Habib has his own personal ATM - his momma - and he probably never paid her back. And no, Habib - 1930 is not Victorian and neither is 1950. Too stupid and lazy to bother reading papers or even Googling for styles. If not for Sarah he would have totally messed this place up.

    I really like this young couple. They're naively crazy thinking they can do everything themselves on no budget (a wing and a prayer), but bravo for trying! I just thinking that they will get through this and go on to bigger and better things. You have to be young and stupid to dive into your life that way, and it's the best way to learn. They are very sweet.

    Air fresheners!! OMG ... I knew some really lovely people who fostered cats. They had to remove the sub-flooring (cement) of their basement because it was permeated. THAT is how serious cat pee is. Years and years of it... You are NOT going to get rid of it with air fresheners!!!
