Phil and Kristie are by far the best part of this show. They work together so well. Funny and not phony.
Oh, God, I love Kirstie!!! She is THE best. She's funny. Phil and she are the most wonderful entertainment. I could watch them ALL DAY LONG. They simply brighten my life.
When I first found them a year ago during the pandemic I binged location, location, location after moving into my house. 😂
@@TimNewmanGaming They're THE BEST anti-depressant!
Ugh! I am suffering from withdrawal symptoms as I've run out!! (And re-watched all of them once already!).
Very entertaining presenters. Love them too
Perfect presenter couple, amiable, joyful, so knowledgeable about property purchases what’s not to like… I LOVE them
Wow that married couple was grimy going behind Phil’s back
Crazy episode! Can't believe the one couple! Sounds like they cheated Phil out of a commission plus grossly deceptive about their budget. Good grief!!!
What nasty people. Well, Phil and Christy just hang on because there is such a thing as karma and it will come around and bite that couple in the butt? They also showed the world that they are not trust worthy to pull this type of crap on a show that is internationally viewed take some gall.
@@baldwinleatherworks Kirstie
@@baldwinleatherworks Thoroughly agree! Horrible people! (I hope karma finds them!)
what on earth makes you think they earned commission? lmao
Does Phil get a commission? I would imagine there are lots of real estate agents around the country working behind the scenes that he reps for this show. His pay comes from the program. Or am I wrong? I know he is an agent but not for the whole British isles.
I hope Adam's girl is happy with someone new by now.
Or maybe he's grown up? (It takes them longer).
@@andreaandrea6716narcissists don't tend to change
@@_luckicharms Yes. True. But youth CAN be rather narcissistic ... and (if pointed out early enough) growth/evolution/change CAN happen. Never give up on Self-Awareness. And her lesson is to speak up a bit more. Nothing happens TO us ... and people are seldom in each others lives without purpose. They can learn a lot from each other.
Hey, in this video, they are YOUNG. Give 'em a chance.
@andreaandrea6716 sure. But the 🚩 were her name not being on the mortgage, he barely spoke during the filming, running away from that house and embaraaaing her in front of the filling crew.. cant be explained off as youth.
@@_luckicharms It WOULD be very interesting to know where they are today. I'm one of those people who will cut and run at the first sign of disaster (at the first red flag. And they can be small things that belie larger problems. Icebergs!). I will cut off my nose to spite my face if I think that something/someone is bad for me: I will take a scalpel and cut that element OUT of my life. Thus, I've avoided massive messes in my life. So... I am with you on the warning signs!
I would also like to think that this guy will come to his senses because they COULD have a fabulous life. One can always dream.
I don't understand the negativity directed towards the young couple, Adam seemed to have accepted towards the end that he was behaving in an untenable and unrealistic manner and the girl was cool, open minded. I'm happy for them that they managed to find their first home together and hope they enjoy it.
yeah, I think it's unfair to Phil. They should have given the same budget to him
Wow! What an episode!! All the twists & turns, Kirstie’s ‘tough love,’ and good-natured sparring with Phil help balance these indecisive couples. HOW FRUSTRATING for K&P!! We don’t find out what happens until the very end- but it’s worth EVERY MOMENT ♥️‼️
When does a 3 year old decide where you will live?
When the parents scam Pip.......😉
When you are dim, over-indulgent parents.
Don't laugh but I've had many situations where a house was sold or rented out thanks to the kiddies positive reaction.
Raising a totally spoiled child. Why do 3 people need a 5 bed?
The buyers in this episode were ill mannered and thoughtless - poor Phil and Kirstie
So many of the young buyers can't seem to understand what they can..and cannot..have on their budget
@@brendadion7868 entitled beyond belief. There was a girl wanting a mansion like her parents one with a £250K budget 😂😂
What a shady couple, scammers, good thing they listen to a 3 year old. Lets hope she grows up honest and with some integrity.
I lived in Pollokshield while attending Strath Uni and loved it. My 2 bed 2 bath was well appointed and I outfitted for under 1500. sterling. Many Busses pass by and get to Glasgow Town Centre in under 15mns or less.
"Look to either side and the people here don't take any pride in their frontage." This guy is going to make lots of friends in Glasgow. It's always good to call your neighbors slobs when you arrive in a new city.
And who wants to live next to Trashy people and spend good money on it?
Glasgow is my city, born and bred and I'm moving away due to slobs so I don't blame him.
Frontages are even worse in 2022.
@@SilverSparkles22 - Sadly that's the honest truth of Glasgow right now. It's been run into the ground by Hollyrood & the local council. Think the final straw was the sale of the city chambers & museum. Absolutely criminal.
Wow. They played Phil and were sneaky and dirty going behind his back
Not necessarily. If they happened to drive by an estate with an open model home, they may have just succumbed to a good salesperson or a work colleague who is also a realtor.
😂😂😂😂😂and then they chose to voluntarily go to EKB. 😂😂😂😂
What I like about you guys is your realistic show.... THNAKS.... Sorry about that deceptive couple who gave you 100,000 less
In the flat that Adam bought, I'd have gotten rid of that blue carpet and gotten some nice flooring together, before I moved in.
I knew Adam at university. He's a good guy trust me. A bit of editing, and a bit of huffing and puffing from kirsty, and they've formed a narrative about this guy which is totally wrong. Its his money, he was obviously on a small salary at 23 or 24 - who wasn't? And who hasn't grown since that age? Lets just be gentle with people. He's trying to make the right choice and struggled to make the leap to something not perfect. By now no doubt he has 4 times the income, has sold and bought at least once and is still a good guy at heart. Good luck to you!
Poor Kirstie! Adam is a very young 24. He who hesitates is lost Adam!
Location is key to home buying! You can have a beautiful mansion but if it’s located in a sketchy hood🫤then your mansion doesn’t feel worth it if you can’t feel safe! Location is important when it comes to job opportunities, good educational schools, calm relatively peaceful neighbors, clean manicured lawns at other homes around you cuz then you know that everyone works to maintain their properties! You always want to be in a good safe location cuz you can change a house but not it’s location!
I think John and Emma were planning this sort of shut out from the squit squat and I can ony wonder how Phil didn't lose it on them. Do these people get money from doing the show? If so J&E scammed you.
Alexandra is insane to pay Adam's mortgage and agreeing to live in a small flat with a renter. Where is her father? Rent and let Adam pay for his own place.
Alexandra looks so unhappy/fed up the entire episode, especially at the start. So what happens if either of them fall for the lodger 😂 assuming it will be a man or woman 😅
I hope they broke up. He is so clearly a narcissist
She really does look rather downtrodden! What is she thinking??
I think Adam must have been a student - still got the student mindset that having his woman living and sharing a bed with him is fine and having a buddy in the back bedroom to have a laugh and a few drinks with is the best way to live
You may be saying this "tonge in cheak."..but good heavens this set up is NOT what a girl friends wants...
Kirstie and Phil - just brilliant, I love them, so entertaining:)
For Adam it was a matter of competition. He wanted a property if others saw its' worth. He is the type who goes for flash
I agree. I'd run from him if I were Alexandra. He's got champagne tastes on a beer budget.
@@d.d.mac.3773 Yep. I kept wondering what she sees in him. Alexandra can do better.
I think he also wants something for nothing given the weird lodger requirement.
has to realize his first home won't be his dream home. But why should it be at 23?

Great show and Phil and Kirsty worked their butt off. But all is well in the end. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏👏🥰🤗
Scotland's "offers over" system seems a bit demoralizing for buyers. It feels like you're paying more than the property is worth.
Then don't buy in Scotland. Problem solved, lol.
@@Kevin-sm8pn what kind of answer is that ?
It’s not going to change is it , but that doesn’t make it any less demoralising .
If you have to move there , you have to deal with it ,and it’s not easy at all .
Just not going there is a very childish response , grow up .
@@7ofthem Well, the only reason why you would HAVE to live there is either a job or family. If you don't have either tying you down to Scotland and you don't like how the scottish system works, then don't move there.
@@Kevin-sm8pn 🤣 I think you’ll find that’s what I said “ if you have to move there …”
It’s still a most childish response from you .
Don’t like it , don’t do it … ridiculous.
People are allowed to complain about a system which is notoriously difficult without just avoidance .
@@7ofthem Yes, people can complain about it. Just don't expect it to change just because you're complaining about it.
The older couple were told the area's not good enough which I think means they want to live more exclusively than their new colleagues. That was off-putting.
👍👍👍 All Homes is THE channel for Location Location Location episodes. Its a question of quality. Best Volleyball is a WASTE OF TIME channel.
“It’s a small, little, wee wall, it hardly has a reason to live.” 😂
Tell 'em like it is, Kirstie!
I love this so very much
if you pause the video on Kirstie`s face when she`s having a tantrum 😂😂😂😂😂
Congratulations, fantastic news. Wishing you both health and happiness
If the second couple bought a new-build, still owned by the builder, the builder may have financed it himself, with a bought down mortgage rate, allowing them to afford much more house.
How underhand for Phil! Suzette SA
That grimy couple. Now their grime is forever displayed and replayed on TH-cam 😂
I love kirsty and Phil ❤❤❤❤❤
John and Emma why are they breathing oxygen that others deserve.
OK, then kill them and take their house, lol. God.
It was an edited TV part of a program! please don't exaggerate! it's not that serious . I'm concerned about your mentality, if you think like that. It's not worthy of murder.
The couple with small child making decisions just took the p**s. I hope they enjoyed their 15 mins of fame on tv
The background music is ridiculous. Lol I love this show!
Sorry, Adam needs to re-evaluate his priorities! He's a bit immature and he's gonna lose that girl, just sayin..Love Kirstie and her sass ❤
A bit immature? The guy's 23. Of course, he's immature! He's really still a kid!

Funny to hear Phil saying Shorelands ( yes that's what the captions made of his pronunciation ) when it's Shawlands ( shaw is a Scottish word for woods/ woodland ). Amazing the southerners who maintain that intrusive Rs are not a thing!
Bit naughty of the couple that wasted Phils time
John and Emma have downright angered me with their misrepresentation. The weeping etc. now look to be just part of the deception, along the lines of 'let's put these poor property hunters through the mill, up against an impossible set of requirements, and pitch hysterical fits if they don't find it for us.' When all the while they could, and did, pay up for what they and Lily would consider satisfactory.
I have to wonder if it was just a case of they wanted to spend 350k, but then realized that in order to get what they want where they want, hey needed to spend more.
@@Kevin-sm8pn but they were telling them that from the beginning!! And they kept bitching about the prices over over and over. The realtors didn't have a clue they would EVER go over THAT much. Gezuz
@@kellyk.3855 Yes, but things can change, hon.
One "trick" realtors sometimes use when nothing is working, is to show people a property over their stated budget that is highly desirable - and see if they'll rise to the occasion. Often, what the buyers are looking for is out of the running, due to the too-cheap budgets they've saddled the realtors with. Shown their "dream home" however, they may well pony up the difference.
Estate Agents in the UK don't usually represent the buyer, unlike in this TV programme. The hunting is usually left to the individuals - possibly something we could do better? Though the commission would need to be deductible from Stamp Duty (transaction tax).
I also don't understand why Adam wants a third person. If they can get that 135k flat (the first one) for 200k, which is quite a bit over, the payments are around 1,000. Split between him and his girlfriend, that is only 500 each. That seems more than reasonable.
he wants a lodger to pay the mortgage from the tenants rent and save his own.
@@NilZed1 Yeah he's tight.
He may be concerned that he won’t be able to pay the mortgage and upkeep. Perhaps the lodger is not a definite, but something he can keep up his sleeve if times get hard. That seems perfectly logical and it is what my husband and I did when looking for a flat in London. We chose somewhere, where if it became a financial necessity, we could take in a lodger.
I think that 500 views knocked that guy off reasonable thought. Adam got stuck on competition because he negotiated 16 properties without a win. In the end he seemed to relax. He and Alexandra could be fine.
"Don't worry, Phil. I'll find another use for my hammer." To knock some sense into them, presumably. Still, I can't judge. I've never had that kind of money to spend. It must be quite daunting especially in the UK where owning any property is a sign of life success, the sole source of security and happiness etc etc.
Good grief! Way over budget for an East Kilbride new build! Munich and dad must have paid to get shot of them.
The couple only has a 3 year old and complaining about the house size. They told Phil their budget was 359k, that new build was 395k and that was too expensive. No, I think your a snob and want to be in the posh neighborhood. Wonder where this couple is now and if they were able to keep that house. They went 120k over budget. As for the younger guy about to move in with his girlfriend and still wants a roommate. If she was going to help with the mortgage. They don't need a roommate. Bet these places are double the value in 2023.
Why four bedroom four a couple and one child?
Office, guests, future children You don't want to buy the smallest house you can tolerate, and then find out you're pregnant with triplets.
Why give Kirstie and Phil a budget of over £100k less than they can actually afford? Did they just want to be on 📺?
What kind of pricing exists in Glasgow - 2 different prices?
What is the issue with marketing property at the Real price wanted?
It’s not Glasgow. It’s the entirety of Scotland.
WTH is that torture choker thing that Emma is wearing ?
Has any of the clients bought the 1st or even 2nd house Kirstie and Phil have shown them?
Wow.
_Today, a record number of Americanos can't afford rent and they may think they've got it bad on their side of the Atlantic, but spare a thought for the little island on the other side of that great ocean. A land of black taxis, red buses, stiff upper lips, and corrupt property factors. What is a "property factor", I hear you Americanos ask. Well, a property factor is a private company which is supposed to take care of the maintenance of private homes or apartments in a neighborhood, and they do this by employing plumbers and electricians and cleaning companies, etc. That is, a property factor is a "bridge" between homeowners/tenants and the actual people who carry out the actual maintenance. In return, the homeowners/tenants pay the property factors (a.k.a. residential factors) a fee (perhaps monthly, and perhaps other fees as well, as is deemed necessary by the factor themselves.) But this is where the trouble (for the homeowners/tenants) starts. When they the sign the Deed which (among other things) says that they will pay a collective fee to the property factor, the ability to choose whether or not they wish to pay is essentially and legally taken away from them. It's like collective punishment. They may own their own home and may not want to be burdened by the maintenance of common areas in an apartment (for the SIMPLE reason that they don't live in an apartment!), but their hands are tied -- they signed the Deed (without doing so they'd not have been able to own their own home in the first place) and they are now at the mercy of the property factor who (if they are dishonest, and in most cases in this country, they ARE) can inflate charges, and bully and threaten homeowners with legal action if they refuse to pay up. Probably the WORST property factor in the UK is called _*_James Gibb Property Factor_*_ based in Scotland. This company is, for all intents and purposes, a _*_criminal organisation._*_ They will charge astronomical fees (far above and beyond what other factors would charge for similar "services") and they won't answer emails or phone calls from apartment residents when they complain about a broken elevator or light fixtures or dampness on a wall or leaky plumbing or a backed up toilet. The Directors of this wretched company have been STEALING money from clients for years, but no one can stop them. In fact, the _*_Group Managing Director of James Gibb_*_ happens to be the _*_CHIEF EXECUTIVE of the PROPERTY MANAGERS ASSOCIATION SCOTLAND (PMAS),_*_ I kid you not. That is how corrupt Scotland has become. James Gibb's No.1 priority is to squeeze as much money as possible from clients and use intimidatory tactics to prevent them from taking to social media to air their grievances about this criminal company._
If you look at uk.trustpilot.com/review/jamesgibb.co.uk and read all the POSITIVE reviews about James Gibb factors, you will notice the similarities in word construction and style of writing. Several posters have noticed this. I am pretty sure that *James Gibb* has employees writing FAKE reviews in order to counterbalance the dozens of NEGATIVE (genuine) reviews by disgruntled clients. This company is really, really insidious and corrupt. But they know no one will stop them, least of all the Scottish Government. One more thing. Whenever you see on a BAR CHART the number of one-star reviews versus the number of five-star reviews, and you see that they are the two biggest bars, and two-star, three-star, and four-star, are nowhere near as big as ONE and FIVE stars, you can bet that the chart has been manipulated. This is because, mathematically, things tend to assume a Gaussian shape, or a bell shape with the median being the highest, e.g. distribution of IQ takes on a bell shape. But here, you have the median being the least, and that's a giveaway that the distribution is fake as f#%k.
I remember when people had dignity.
Vicarfield Street.. poo odour in living room and sewers gases on rest of flat... Soundproofing with neighbours above inexistent..
It’s not just unbelievable that he has supposedly seen 500 properties in 10 months I don’t even think it’s mathematically possible. He has seen 50 properties each and every month for the last 10 months? That’s 12.5 properties every single week. uhhhhh no.
That's possible. You can easily visit 13 houses every weekend. That's not impossible.
@@Kevin-sm8pn EVERY week for 10 months?! How many hundreds of houses do you think are for sale at any given time, within a reasonable distance from his current home in order for him to see 12 houses every week and still have a job?! Its not logical.
@@shastac1396 Girl, don't get mad at me, lol. I'm just saying it's not impossible. And I assume he didn't work on weekends. It's possible to spend two full days looking at houses. Also, keep in mind, he wasn't looking at houses. He was looking at flats, so more would be available in terms of area and especially since this was at the housing boom. More houses were probably on sale at the time because many people wanted to cash in and move on up on the property ladder, especially, again, given the fact that he was looking at flats and not houses.
@@Kevin-sm8pn Nope. But thanks for trying.
and hardly worth it when you consider how many of our tenements have basically the same floor plan.
Why would a couple want a roommate?
Help pay the mortgage.
@@Kevin-sm8pn I would think they would want the privacy of just the two of them in the whole place.
@@bunnylover6481 Depends on the couple, of course.
Legend says Adam is still unable to commit.
But he did commit, lol. He did end up buying a flat, no? What else do you want him to do? But 10 other flats and marry Alexandra and have 500 babies with her in two days?
@@Kevin-sm8pn Come on. The guy came across as a pillock.
Emma is the kind of woman who believes appearance and bling is everything she gives women a bad name.
What year is this? Looks really old!
2007.
Adam is a pasha prince who is all hat and no knickers - to mix several metaphors. Imagine his GF's patience to put up with all that looking.
(Love the metaphors!)
Wow look how young Phil and Kirsty look in this vidio I wonder how old this vidio is
Yes it's a very old one.

@@thetruthisthelight0910 9:37
Cathcart & Battlefield are very rough, very diverse incase anyone is wondering why Adam reacted like that. Paisley used to be fantastic (60's-90's) but went really downhill with mill closures and loss of textile industry. They also removed all the cobble streets & trams for some daft reason. Now Paisley is ramping up it's diversity with assylum seekers which is diversifying the house prices negatively.
I remember Cathcart as quite upmarket 40yrs ago
@@user-fm8br2my4n I have a number of great old photos of these areas when they were beautiful affluent places. Sadly no longer the case. Not sure what’s to blame - so multi faceted.
Do I have this right? This pair is a "couple" and he is making her pay rent for her own room? Won't she be staying in his room? Girl you had better run!
Why shouldn’t she pay rent? She’s only his girlfriend, not his wife. If she were staying somewhere else she’d be paying rent, and likely substantially more or with several flat mates to split the cost. If they end up together definitively, then it belongs to both of them anyway.
@@kitchfacepalm Yes, but if she IS paying rent, she should have more of a say in WHO lives in that very small space. She doesn't realize that yet. And He should be involving her more in the decisions being made. They're young. They'll figure it out. (... how many years ago was this?!)
@@kitchfacepalmit would make more sense for her to pay bills. Legally, she’d actually be entitled to some of the property eventually if she is the mortgage owners partner and is paying towards it.
I used to stay here how odd
Kirstie right ,,always right ,Hope these words are her own ,Tell them girl ,
That necklace , omg. Adam is just a snob!
*stylish* 🤣
Tackiest thing ever!
who let's a 3 year old decide which house to buy?🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't think they were leaving the decision up to her. They just wanted her input. They've been house hunters who let their dogs decide whether or not they should buy a house. That's worse, especially given the much shorter lifespans of dogs.
@@Kevin-sm8pn yes , the input of a 3 year old is always invaluable 😂
@@7ofthem Eh, again, better than input from a dog, lol. I've seen people on Location Location Location not buy a house because their dog didn't like it. And the dog is going to die in like five years and will be replaced with another dog who may not like the house that they bought, and then they would have to move again. How is that any better?
@@Kevin-sm8pn it’s not , both are completely ridiculous but so is your comment suggesting “they just wanted her input “ like it was ok .
Opinions of children / dogs / pets etc are completely irrelevant when it comes to house buying .
@@7ofthem I'm not saying that it's OK, like I personally wouldn't do it. But it is their choice and preference. If they want to get input from their young child, then fine. It's not like I'm buying the house for them. It's their money, and they have to feel comfortable with their purchase.
What a brat! Adam grow up. I think some of these people just apply for Kirstie and Phil’s assistance to get on television not because they actually want to buy a house. I had to hit pause and walk away when he threw his little fit.
Kirstie and Phil rock!!!
But Adam actually did buy a house though. It's an expensive way to get yourself onTV, lol.
I knew Adam at university. He's a good guy trust me. A bit of editing, and a bit of huffing and puffing from kirsty, and they've formed a narrative about this guy which is totally wrong. Its his money, he was obviously on a small salary at 23 or 24 - who wasn't? And who hasn't grown since that age? Lets just be gentle with people. He's trying to make the right choice and struggled to make the leap to something not perfect. By now no doubt he has 4 times the income, has sold and bought at least once and is still a good guy at heart. Good luck to you!
And Emma.
I Don't know which one to Pity🙄
He doesn’t want to buy .
Kirstie!!! You can tell people exactly what they need to hear but you gotta do it with far more tact girl. You were very outspoken in this video.
Those two were a nasty piece of work. Poor Phil. After all the work he did. Those are the kind of people who think only of themselves and haven't a clue that there are ways you behave and ways of behaving that are deplorable. They think life is about status, about having a big fancy house and fancy clothes. They haven't a clue.
Decor can be easily changed.... seriously
Kirstie can be such a bully to get her way even ever patient Philip was obviously not pleased with her this episode.
I hate the distracting music.
this episode is hilarious. I don't know if the producers did it deliberately to make all four house hunters look like terrible people, but only the girlfriend looks even partway nice. that couple that spent the whole time complaining about the areas without giving them a chance, plus the other guy having a tantrum about a street - all of them just came across as stupid snobs, plus ridiculously entitled.."what do you mean there's no swimming pool for my 100k budget" lol. Kirstie wasn't being harsh, they deserved a lot more - Phil was pretty restrained with his criticism of how they treated him., which was pretty obnoxious, not just the budget thing but not trusting him to show them safe areas.
ps re offers over - it's not that bad. properties don't always go for 30 or 40% over the price. It's just as common to get something for the valuation or a couple of grand over. it depends who else wants it.
How dare anyone call some of those rooms bedrooms? If anyone over the age of ten is put in that room, they're in a room that's the same size as a jail cell! Actually, it's probably smaller because a jail cell has a toilet and sink!
Those buyers were all a piece of work.
Alexandra was lovely. I can’t believe people are having problems with her.
Drama couples! It was all about Status for both of them.
if she wants to own a property someday she needs to ditch adam for somebody who is willing to someday
Adam needs to grow up! Pick a flat, ur girl deserves a home.
To be fair, he was only 23 at the time. That’s still very young.
When the fussy controlling guy, Adam, tries to make friends, all he'll get is the "Glasgow Kiss!
I wouldnt feel comfortable living in a Glasgow tenement with out a storm door
The girlfriend should just buy it herself.
Adam's girlfriend next to RUN now! He is psycho!
Even with NO down payment, it would be like 1,000 a month mortgage. How do they need three people to pay for that? These are my least favorite couples on this show.
That young couple is straight going into divorce before even starting a couple life😂 that guy needs a shrink😂😂😂
I’m very glad not to be a realtor, a job that requires the patience of Job.
seen. Seen 500 flats!!!!!!??? UNREAL! Pathetic episode. Horror.
They probably would have gone thru 10 estate agents-Real estate agents- by now. They are a likable couple, but are typically of many young people today who live in a bubble,
Adam wants a lodger, but is moving in with his girlfriend who's helping to pay ‼️ He thinks this is going to be a lads pad .
In a word...dump Adam! RUN
What a bunch of jerks!!!! Phil wasted his time and ours too.
This is all a set up. If nothing else, the "offers over" system doesn't work like that in Scotland! An owner can't sell their property whenever, especially not before the closing date, so this whole "Omg sorry, this was sold last night when someone made an offer the seller liked" is just a lie made up for drama. The seller is made by law to wait until the closing time.
Well, keep in mind that this was in 2007, right before the housing crash of 2008, so no duh things are different since 15+ years ago, lol. Also, the price on that property was fixed, so there's no need to wait if the seller got the price they wanted.
*Adam is crapam!*
