Have you ever wished you could find the perfect first property to own and that you could list all your wants and needs and a knowledgeable real estate guru would help lead your search? Well this is your lucky day now that the popular HGTV show “Property Virgins” is going into its smash 4th season. The show airs a new episode each day and re-broadcasts up to 4 times daily. Sandra Rinomato a real estate and property guru leads the “Property Virgins” (A person or people who have never owned personal property) through the hassle of finding the entity that is right for them. The show for the most part takes place in the GTA and Toronto but sometimes veers off to the U.S and other cities.
The way the episodes work is that Sandra meets the person as well as their family, spouse or whomever they choose to bring along. They discuss what they are and are not looking for in a property and then Sandra finds usually 3 properties to show them. At the end they pick a property, make an offer and we see what happens. They also talk about what works for them and what makes them happy in a property.
Now you might be asking, why am I blogging about this little show? It is an amazing show, and personally as someone who is new to property, every episode I watch opens my eyes. We see the fear and fun in picking a property as well as the naiveté of the purchasers when Sandra asks them how much they think the house or condominium are worth (they answer $60,000 below or above sometimes). We see the human condition at its best and the vulnerability of people and their choices.
“Property Virgins” broaches a topic that is important and that topic is fear of commitment. Fear of commitment can mean many things but in this sense with housing obviously. For anyone watching the show really helps give you ideas and quenches fears and lingering questions.
Sandra Rinomato has a great presence and commands the audience and “PV’s” respect and adoration. She is definitely someone who you would want advocating for you and or your family to find a place.
So for someone interested in first time property, this show is a must.
