  • The Unsellables | Yvonne’s three-bedroom townhouse has been listed for over three months… And although she’s reduced the price, no one’s biting.
    Why do you think this townhouse wasn't selling?
    The Unsellables - From Season 1 Episode 10 "Yvonne": Yvonne is surprised… But Sofie isn’t. She says the numerous pets are an allergy sufferers’ nightmare… And says the dust bunnies, musty smell, and gloomy paint colors are another major turnoff.
    In order to appeal to families and first-time buyers, Sofie comes up with a $4,200 plan to reveal the home’s potential. Yvonne agrees to move the pets out… And as Anthony and the team harmonize the flooring, freshen the paint colors, and eliminate odors, Sofie gives Yvonne some much-needed real estate advice. Yvonne is desperate to move closer to her new dream job… But will the home makeover finally set her free?
    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?

      Dirty and badly maintained. She clearly has no idea about hygiene and cleanliness and tidiness. No one wants a smelly house either. They will move into a new place and it will stink just as bad and look just as dirty after 3 mths.

      Dirty smelly carpets and cigarette smell. Nothing turns me off like those two things. Plus a generally outdated kitchen. Some ppl also dislike pets. We had three cats and when we showed our home, we put the cats in their carriers and put them in our car in the garage. We stacked the litter boxes and put them in the garage under a towel and they were undiscovered during showings. We also sprayed Febreze throughout and made sure the entire house was vacuumed and tidied. Before we put the house in the market I went through all our belongings twice, taking unwanted items to Goodwill. Once we did that, and organized the remaining items, we put about 1/4 of our furniture into a storage unit and had the items delivered to our new home an hour's drive away. Less furniture makes a house look larger. In this program, they never show the bathrooms, which is interesting.....I guess those fixes are left to a new homeowner. I also see many of these homes with poor lawns -- either trodden dirt or weedy, and either few shrubs and flowers OR overgrown ones. Curb appeal is SO important. Plant a few shrubs, clean up the yard, replace sod or plant with grass seed depending on the climate area. A new front door color can also do WONDERS for curb appeal. Clean siding, wash off porches, dust exterior lamps and lights, remove cobwebs. Consider painting porch furniture, buy an inexpensive rug or a side table.....set up a vignette on the front porch. Remove ALL signage in the house because they create visual clutter and do not allow buyers to concentrate on the rooms -- they are distracted reading all the signage, like a sign in the kitchen that says, EAT. Duh.

      it's always price. for a low enough price, someone would have wanted to buy it, who would have done the cleaning, paint and floors. a lot of people are intimidated by a cosmetic fixer, but those are the best deals. they just needed to lower the price enough to make it a bargain for someone who is ok with doing the cosmetic repairs.

    It's not the pets that are the problem it's her/their lack of cleanliness. If you have pets you need to clean more often that's a given. You need to wash furnishings and bedding and vacume regularly. Clean skirtings and walls, wipe surfaces every day etc... having pets shouldn't necessarily mean your house is smelly and dirty.

    I used to have a house cleaning business. One of my customers, an elderly couple, were smokers and they smoked in the house. Nicotine litterally clings to every surface. It is sticky like honey. attracts dust and pet hair along with their odors.

    To get rd of the smoke smell in the walls they really should be putting stain blocking primer on the walls. Nicotine will actually eat through paint & come through. On the floor where the cats & dog peed you again have to use primer but it has to be Oil based primer so the stain won’t come through & the same for Any wall with nicotine on it has to be Oil based primer. Use Kitz or Bulls Eye 123 primer

    They painted the walls but did they paint the ceilings? That's probably yellow and still stinks. They should have had a professional odour remover come in.
    Chances are if they don't clean they're not properly maintaining the house either. I doubt air filters were changed, etc.

    I know this episode is from the late 2000's.. I was wondering why there weren't lovely area rugs put down under the Lounge furniture, to help ground the space something appropriate at the indoor front entrance, to protect from shoes, etc. That's a small dining set for the area, it feels " stark " , needed a nice large mirror opposite the dining set, and some fresh flowers on the table.
