Interesting, how much one can learn of people 's character, confidence and reasonableness by watching their reactions. I would not let her take care of my dog.
If the nanny is live-in, she probably has been living in rather large, posh houses with plenty of space, and has been dreaming of having/making her own space based on the size and glam she's been living in for the past several years. She might have been dreaming big for a long time, and now just needs to adjust her dreams to the budget. Not a princess... just a typical first-time buyer who is planning to get married, settle into her first home and live happily ever after. She has a vision. Needs a reality check.
That's a bit unfair. I too was a live in nanny in a lovely London house, but when I left that house I knew that I was leaving a world I could never afford. Most of us are employed because we have a brain in our head ......... and that includes our expectations for our future.
Maybe. Some people are practical and understand that most young couples start small and work their way up if a large house is what they desire.
Then again, some don't want large, because they wish to leave room in their budget for travel. Everybody is different, aren't they?
@@dianewalker4633 Well said. And your first home is a starter home.
@@dianewalker4633
She is one who belongs in a very small minority of live-in nannies who has feelings of grandeur, that's not unfair at all and certainly seems to be the case here.
I enjoyed this episode a lot. Neither couple ended up purchasing one of the featured homes but the search itself made their priorities clear.
I'm sure it's understandable for the couple back from Australia to make adopting a child their priority, but by putting house-buying on the back-burner they'll be spending thousands on rent with no return.
How does Princess Isabel look at the tastefully decorated interior and determine "it's just too much work" to change very simple aesthetics to her taste 🙄
LOVE the BANTER!!!
Brit-wit at it's best....
lol Phil is a patient man
Thank you so much for posting!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where will it end? At the asking price. There are no guarantees that people will take less even if you give a sob story.
2008 the year of the crash. Both couples so Lucky. Many people who bought ended up in negative equity. I bought 2006 and in 2016 sold for the price I'd bought property at. 😰 From Ireland 🍀
Wicked witch is super cute. V funny!
Hard to believe the couple let that house go for a difference of what...? $10,000? When there were so many positives. Now, it's back to square #1. All that time and work that was put in by Phil and Kirstie for no results!
I think maybe they let it go because they would be lookin to purchase the garage area too and they would be very over budget.
The bathroom situation mades no sense. In 2008 there were lots of bargains to be had.
If the original budget for the older couple was 500,00 why couldn't they afford 485,000
Because they would have had to build a bathroom on the main sleeping floor on top of purchasing the garage property for another $62,000. The property was really $547,000 plus bathroom construction costs.
I think you mean 500k.
@@LifeAdviceSiteAs be on top of that, it needed a lot of cosmetic work.
I just mainly like watching these two sell houses or flats they are so comical 😂
If they will be busy with new baby u won’t be looking out windows all the time ! Bk view fab
I don't think Isobel realises how lucky she is being with a man like Chris.
Well thats the way it goes. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💙🥰🤗
Will there ever be a couple who have the same taste in houses?
Yes, lol. There's been a countless number of couples that do.
Did the younger couple have “free” rent? (He was military and she was a live-in nanny.) If so, saving a year’s (or so) salary is a good idea.
I had an open house one time, and a coworker/agent brought his client family by to look at the house. He was a great salesman, too great. The family were saying this was not the house for them, but he went on, and on espousing the virtues of the property, and had them signing that contract in 20 minutes! Watching it all go down which is what he wanted, to show how great he was, I knew it wasn't going to work. Sure enough, the following Monday, two days after they signed, they backed out! This style of sales strike me as the epitome of how Kirsty sells property, maybe not quite as bad, but she sure is a boss when it comes to clients!😎✌🎄🎅
Except Kirsty isn't an estate agent. She's what's called a "property finder." Which is exactly what it sounds. A person who is not a part of a real estate firm and helps people find houses but does not actually sell them. I know. I know. It's not common where you live. But it's common in Europe, which the UK is in, =p
@@thehungrygoldfish I started watching a few episodes of this show some days ago and was wondering what exactly do Phil and Kirstie do because it did not seem like they were your standard realtors. I could not figure out if this was for the show or if they play a different role from realtors. Your comment was helpful.
@thehungrygoldfish Who are the property finders paid by? I'm assuming they wouldn't work for free so someone is paying them.
@@michellerhodes5477 They get paid a commision which in California is 6% to be split between the listing agent, and the selling agent. One person can represent both sides in CA so one could get 6%, but on an average sale, it's 3% per agent. Also, the 6% overall can be adjusted by the actual owner of the property as he is the one paying the commision when all is said and done. He could negotiate to 5%, or even less if the house is in the millions. 👍😎✌🗽
P.S. This is a US Real Estate transaction where the agent finds, and lists a property for the owners of that property, then another agent or the listing agent can sell it. I'm not certain why they would have property finders, especially nowadays with everything on the internet. I suppose they might have contacts that enable them to get access to properties that are about to hit the open market, but even this is attainable by your average property seeker by making phone calls. I'm just not certain why one would pay someone to find a property for them when the agent can do that, why have a third party involved that also has to get paid adding to the ultimate cost of property?✌
@@michellerhodes5477The clients. It’s different from the traditional real estate agent.
If you live in the countryside you need a view, with rolling hills, I live on a hill and I never get bored also you get plenty of light like the second house. Why don't the bathrooms and buy the garage instead, you can do the the remodelling after.
Deciding to adopt the baby before getting a house - any suitable house - seems the wrong way round, not easy to house hunt with a baby to care for. Of course people want to fall in love with a house but sometimes you can make the best of the almost right house. Is it me or do these couples seem incredibly fussy. If they don't want to spend so much why not look at cheaper houses.
I got the feeling that he wanted a modern house like the one they rented and she was more committed to the surroundings. Neither one was thinking about schools, facilities and everything that becomes important these days when you have a small child.
Neither could see that the house was needed and compromise is the word. All the houses for the older couple were absolutely amazing.
Adopting is a very long process that can take years.
And they'll be losing thousands by paying rent for as long as adoption takes.
Compromise the thing most couples hate to do and usually fail at.
Please punctuate so that your comment makes sense.
Isabel was childishly irritating. Good luck to Chris.
👍
Ok that poor soldier needs to dump Miss Princess … poor guy
I actually think it must be very difficult for a woman to tolerate being with a military man.
She is a nordland nanny, like the nanny for the royal family, so I think she is comparing what she has lived in to what is showed to them. Not the same budgets I would guess seeing as nordland nannies work for high profile and very rich families...

Yes, indeed. I fear he's going to learn that lesson a bit too late.
When Kirstie said ‘it’s a nice big room’ everyone who does not live in England jaws dropped 😂😂
It's sad that neither couple got either house.
so not all princesses live in castles then ...did just check her budget she isnt looking at million pound houses... he should take this as a lesson and run now before the wedding
He really is a very considerate man who understands what a marriage is about. Isabel seems simply immature and somewhat self-centered. Hopefully she will grow up and appreciate her fiance.
That nanny looks a lot like Kirstie.
Sad outcome! No one got a house...
What's the significance of 'being in a chain' when it comes to buying in the UK? Asking from the states.
It may mean that the potential buyer of a property has to sell their current house before they can pay for the new house. That could take time. Also it may mean that the potential buyer has sold their house but contacts have not been exchanged and their buyer could back out. The seller of the property you want to buy may turn around and say that they can't exchange contracts until they have firmed up their next house purchase. The sellers next purchase may also involve a chain, etc. This can't happen in France, for instance , because you sign a legally binding agreement to buy, with penalties attached if you back out. England is "peculiar"...
@@elizzy8754 Thanks. Here in the states the purchase would be on 'contingency'. The dreaded IF factor, IF I sell my house I'd like to buy yours...
@@elizzy8754 I was quite shocked to find out that a UK biuyer can back out after accepting an offer. Not so in Canada or the US. It's cheaty to back out because someone else ofered a better price or whatever, even though you were supposed to take the property off the market. Kind of cut-throat imo
@@lidiawolanskyj5560 Exactly. It leads to inflated house prices. And the Brts wonder why it's so hard for young people and those on low incomes to buy a roof...
@@lidiawolanskyj5560Because they don’t sign binding contracts at the stage when the offer is accepted. That comes down the line (when mortgages etc arranged). Therefore it’s not binding for weeks
No closed captain
?
@@resnonverba137 She means closed captions - subtitles.
@@Mariana-ud7dw Then she's an idiot! Thank you.
The renting for 2 tears is a stupid idea.
It is particularly stupid to suggest it to a couple who are marrying in order to be together!
You can tell Kirsty was brought up with privilege and rarely heard the word "no".
The more I watch this show the more I feel Kirsty isn't as nice a person as everyone seems to feel.
@@joannahampton5979 Her job isn't to be nice, it's to be effective and really help people get a new house. Most of the people she works with have had trouble finding the house they want and often have personal issues that are getting in the way. She's very good at helping people see the reality of their situation. Often she's dealing with people who are spoiled and finnicky and refuse to see the reality. Not an easy job and pussy-footing doesn't really work.
Perhaps you see that. I'm not English and I don't see that. I think she's quite effective at helping people who are off-track for a variety of reasons find the house that works for them.
She’s judgemental and donineering
“You’re wrong Phil”. Kirstie is so rude
