The joys of home-buying: the thrill of the hunt, the agonizing over mortgage rates, and the inevitable clash of wills when your fiancé’s prized sneaker collection takes precedence over, you know, basic necessities. Such is the drama that awaits viewers in Monday’s episode of House Hunters.
This time, we’re in North Carolina, where an engaged couple grapples with the age-old conundrum: finding a place that satisfies both partners’ desires without breaking the bank (or the relationship). Our bride-to-be has her heart set on a charming Craftsman-style home, preferably one that doesn’t require selling off vital organs to afford. Our groom, however, has different priorities. He envisions a spacious abode capable of housing his extensive sneaker collection – a collection, one suspects, might rival Imelda Marcos’s shoe closet.
Will they find a home that accommodates both her sensible budget and his footwear obsession? Or will their house hunt devolve into a pre-marital meltdown?
