Property Brothers

Ever since I started to watch this show, I have been hooked. I watch it weekly. I have learned a lot from Jonathan and Drew. I love how they keep the cost low and stay inside the budget as they make the couples dream homes a reality. They bring in a lot of humor and part of themselves into each and every episode. When Jonathan is renovating, he will stop and say what is supposed to be done and correctly. And they use really cool technology to show the couple what their dream house could possibly look like. This is definitely something that I would recommend. Plus, Jonathan and Drew are amazingly cute as well. :D If you want a renovation show, with humor this is the show to watch.

I got the bright idea to research how this show comes together, and learning the details of how fake it is ruined the show for me. Right now I'm only still watching it because I do like the interior design in different homes.

I love the show, I love the brothers and it's always great to see the renovations and the end result. What I don't like is how rude people can be about other people's houses, don't they realise that the owners will watch and hear their nasty remarks? Some of these people are so stuck up it's unbelievable, just because somebody has different taste or lives in a different way to you just not need you to say really nasty things. Perhaps it might be better to say "it's not to my taste." The people on the shows make me so cross I don't feel they deserve the help of the brothers and to get a lovely home at the end of it. They do not appreciate how lucky they are. I'll keep watching it anyway.

I would have given this show a higher review because overall I definitely feel it is MUCH better than the average 3.3 stars it is setting at right now. For me, as someone who loves the idea of a fixer-upper this is the dream show and is perfect for HGTV. The only issue I have with this show is the length. It is only a half hour and there is too much material vying for TV time. I feel an hour for these two seasoned individuals would be more adequate. A half hour devoted to looking at the fixer-uppers, the options of how they could be fixed up and then a half hour devoted for the demo, a deeper look at how the renovation went and the "before and after" shots.

It's not possible to get the type of renovations shown on Property Brothers at the prices they claim. Unless you are having the work done by a family member, friend or subsidized TV show contractor, multiply the stated costs by at least 2.5 to get a more realistic idea of what this type of rehab will cost you. The show is somewhat entertaining, and it's interesting to see the type of run-down houses that are on the market for big prices. I noticed that they don't show all of the rooms on the show, only the glamor rooms like kitchen and living. Is it really a good idea to have the homeowners participate in knocking down walls and taking out windows?
