The people in the show are already living in their chosen town. They are then required to find 2 or 3 other homes to "tour". The homes are usually friends' or family members' homes. They then walk around these homes and say what they don't like about them. And? They don't even get paid for this show. I honestly cannot understand why people do it.Logannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34249799.post-27478089576957663112020-07-15T00:28:13.023+12:002020-07-15T00:28:13.023+12:00We've thought about possibly living in Hawaii ...We've thought about possibly living in Hawaii too - for many of the reasons you listed. And I saw that same "House Hunter" when I was in LA! Thing is, that show is totally fake, but it was cool to see the house options over there and the prices.Logannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34249799.post-67591432208748688112020-07-15T00:13:33.611+12:002020-07-15T00:13:33.611+12:00All of those varieties of House Hunters programmes...All of those varieties of House Hunters programmes are totally fake (who would ever see only three properties and choose ONLY among <i>them</i>?!). But I like them all the same for the same reason—seeing the houses and prices. I also like that they talk a little bit about what life is like there (as for example, that episode mentioned how it rains in Hilo a LOT; good to know!). One thing I like about the various "House Hunter" shows (including "Hawaii Life") is that unlike another show I like, the British "Location, Location, Location", we see them moved into their new home at the end. It's a quick look, but it is nice to see how they "fit" the house they ultimately chose. It's the money shot for real estate porn. 😆Arthur Schenck (AmeriNZ)http://amerinz.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34249799.post-29356544735513196332020-07-15T00:13:30.577+12:002020-07-15T00:13:30.577+12:00Any island you're on is special!Any island you're on is special!rogerogreennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34249799.post-30844101910562283402020-07-15T00:10:48.322+12:002020-07-15T00:10:48.322+12:00Well, obviously…Well, <i>obviously…</i>Arthur Schenck (AmeriNZ)http://amerinz.com/noreply@blogger.com
