HGTV knows what its bread and butter is, and on Wednesday, December 11, it’s slathering on a double helping. Two fresh episodes of House Hunters offer viewers a voyeuristic peek into the chaotic, yet strangely compelling world of real estate. First up, a family of eight attempts to escape the drizzle of Seattle for the Windy City, presumably because they heard Chicago deep-dish is large enough to feed their brood. Their hunt for a Chicago abode promises the usual blend of conflicting desires: price, style, and the ever-present renovation debate. With eight opinions to juggle, expect a rollercoaster of emotions and possibly a few tears — mostly from the parents.
Then, House Hunters pivots to Birmingham, Alabama, where an accountant is in hot pursuit of her first home. This isn’t your average starter home search, though. Our Birmingham buyer has a penchant for high-end finishes and a tight grip on her budget. She’s looking for a downtown bachelorette pad fit for a queen, but her royal aspirations might clash with her financial pragmatism. Will she find the perfect balance of luxury and affordability, or will she be forced to compromise on her dream?
House Hunters: Eight Is More Than Enough in Chicago airs at 10:01 PM, followed by House Hunters: Accounting for the Queen in Birmingham at 10:31 PM, both on HGTV. Don’t miss the double dose of real estate drama!
