a natural charm already,

to show houses in Orange.
162
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,100
But for the budget
that we have,
163
00:05:29,100 --> 00:05:31,367
I think that their dollar
might go a little further
164

00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,367
Okay, so we're just
in Anaheim.
172
00:05:50,367 --> 00:05:52,166
-[Brook] Right.
-[Jasmine] This neighborhood,
173
00:05:52,166 --> 00:05:53,500
I think you're really
going to like
174
00:05:53,500 --> 00:05:55,867
-if you'll have an open mind.
Jonathan...
-Mmhmm.
175
00:05:55,867 --> 00:05:57,100
...I don't want you
to be mad at me,
176
00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:59,200
but this is
a construction project.
177
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,467
It's a blank slate.
178
00:06:00,467 --> 00:06:01,700
[Brook] I'm excited for that.
179
00:06:01,700 --> 00:06:03,367
I guess
we'll just have to see.
180
00:06:03,367 --> 00:06:06,200
Yeah. All right.
So here we are.
181
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,000
-[Brook] Just love that
it's a cul-de-sac.
-[Jonathan] Yep.
182
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,634
[upbeat music playing]
183
00:06:10,667 --> 00:06:12,567
And the reasons
they wanted to be in Orange:
184
00:06:12,567 --> 00:06:14,700
the neighborhood
and the community.
185
00:06:14,700 --> 00:06:17,367
I believe this house
has all that and then some.
186
00:06:17,367 --> 00:06:18,567
-[Brook] I like it.
-[Jonathan] It's nice.
187
00:06:18,567 --> 00:06:21,467
[Brook] I like the wood on it.
Almost looks cottage-like.
188
00:06:21,467 --> 00:06:22,767
Garage is attached.
189
00:06:22,767 --> 00:06:24,066
[Jonathan] Perfect.
I can see myself
190
00:06:24,066 --> 00:06:25,767
coming home from work
here every day.
191
00:06:25,767 --> 00:06:28,200
It is at $800,000.
192
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,367
-[Jonathan] Okay.
-Okay, we're good there. Yeah.
193
00:06:30,367 --> 00:06:31,700
[Jasmine] But remember,
I told you in the car,
194
00:06:31,700 --> 00:06:33,867
-it does need
a lot of work, so...
-[Brook] Okay.
195
00:06:33,867 --> 00:06:35,000
[Jonathan] Hmm.
196
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,867
[upbeat music playing]
197
00:06:36,867 --> 00:06:38,500
[Jonathan] Oh!
198
00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:40,767
-[Brook] Oh. Okay.
-[Jonathan] Um...
199
00:06:40,767 --> 00:06:42,567
Looks like
a whole lot of nothing.
200
00:06:42,567 --> 00:06:44,266
[Brook] This is like
a construction site.
201
00:06:44,266 --> 00:06:46,000
I'm not exactly gonna be
sitting on the couch
202
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,166
watching TV in here.
203
00:06:48,166 --> 00:06:49,667
[Brook] Anytime soon.
204
00:06:49,667 --> 00:06:53,100
-So, the previous owners
started a renovation...
-[Jonathan] Okay.
205
00:06:53,100 --> 00:06:54,200
-...and they're not
finishing it.
-Oh.
206
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:55,567
-Okay.
-Mmhmm.
207
00:06:55,567 --> 00:06:56,800
-Brand-new windows
throughout the whole house.
-[Brook] Mmhmm.
208
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,300
-Okay.
-[Jasmine] Which is cool.
209
00:06:58,300 --> 00:07:02,500
The electrical is about
halfway done being updated.
210
00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:05,400
I don't know if this is too
big of a project for them,
211
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,200
but it's about halfway done
through a major renovation,
212
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,266
so there's an opportunity
to do a project together
213
00:07:11,266 --> 00:07:13,266
and really personalize
the house.
214
00:07:13,266 --> 00:07:15,967
If I can take them through
and show them
215
00:07:15,967 --> 00:07:17,567
the vision that I have
for this house,
216
00:07:17,567 --> 00:07:19,600
I think it might
actually be a contender.
217
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,667
This is actually the kitchen.
218
00:07:20,667 --> 00:07:22,400
-Was the kitchen.
-[Jasmine] Was the kitchen.
219
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:23,567
-That's fair.
-[Brook] Okay.
220
00:07:23,567 --> 00:07:25,667
There's no ceiling.
221
00:07:25,667 --> 00:07:27,867
-At some point,
there was a wall...
-[Brook] Okay.
222
00:07:27,867 --> 00:07:29,200
...and they took the wall out.
223
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,867
-[Jasmine] The hard work,
the heavy-lifting...
-[Brook] Right.
224
00:07:31,867 --> 00:07:33,367
-...has already been done.
-[Brook] Right.
225
00:07:33,367 --> 00:07:35,100
Once you close
this kitchen up,
226
00:07:35,100 --> 00:07:37,767
you kind of have
this clean palate
227
00:07:37,767 --> 00:07:39,266
to put your own kitchen in.
228
00:07:39,266 --> 00:07:41,166
I mean, it's kind of hard
to envision
229
00:07:41,166 --> 00:07:42,000
[Jasmine]
Here's what I'm thinking,
230
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,166
-Jonathan, you're a plumber.
-Mmhmm.
231
00:07:43,166 --> 00:07:46,266
[Jasmine] Plumbing's here
on a nice big island.
232
00:07:46,266 --> 00:07:50,367
This back wall, big pantry,
a refrigerator.
233
00:07:50,367 --> 00:07:52,100
This wall that's shared
with the garage
234
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:53,300
becomes the range wall.
235
00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:55,500
Okay. Well, I'm glad
you're here. [chuckles]
236
00:07:55,500 --> 00:07:57,200
I like the open concept.
237
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:58,867
Yeah, that'd be
a really nice kitchen.
238
00:07:58,867 --> 00:08:00,266
The plumbing, that's easy.
239
00:08:00,266 --> 00:08:02,967
For a kitchen of this size
and the amount of work
240
00:08:02,967 --> 00:08:05,266
that it would have taken
from the very beginning,
241
00:08:05,266 --> 00:08:08,166
it probably would have been
about $50,000.
242
00:08:08,166 --> 00:08:10,400
But half the work's
already done,
243
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,467
And to finish
this entire kitchen
244
00:08:12,467 --> 00:08:14,767
would probably be
about $25,000.
245
00:08:14,767 --> 00:08:15,867
I didn't think that we'd be
246
00:08:15,867 --> 00:08:18,000
walking into
a construction site.
247
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,700
But I do see
the positive of it
248
00:08:19,700 --> 00:08:22,600
already being demoed.
It's a lot of costs.
249
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,000
So, they did it for us.
250
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,800
Yeah, but, I mean,
how are we gonna live
251
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,266
in a house without a kitchen?
252
00:08:27,266 --> 00:08:28,767
-[Jasmine]
All right, so in here...
-[Brook] Yeah.
253
00:08:28,767 --> 00:08:31,467
...this is the bathroom
for the two guest bedrooms.
254
00:08:31,467 --> 00:08:32,600
[Brook] Oh, yellow.
255
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,567
-Yeah, so...
-[chuckles]
Not quite my color,
256
00:08:34,567 --> 00:08:35,700
but we could change that.
257
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:37,467
You could use this bathroom
the way it is
258
00:08:37,467 --> 00:08:40,100
and then do this renovation
in phases.
259
00:08:40,100 --> 00:08:41,667
This is more
what I was thinking.
260
00:08:41,667 --> 00:08:43,166
-Like, put this on...
-[Brook sighs]
261
00:08:43,166 --> 00:08:44,900
...paint it, boom, done.
262
00:08:44,900 --> 00:08:46,700
[upbeat music playing]
263
00:08:46,700 --> 00:08:48,166
[Jasmine]
So, this is the guest room.
264
00:08:48,166 --> 00:08:49,266
It's a good size.
265
00:08:49,266 --> 00:08:51,467
Definitely needs
some resurfacing
266
00:08:51,467 --> 00:08:53,367
-and finishing up the walls.
-[both] Mmhmm.
267
00:08:53,367 --> 00:08:55,400
-I'm gonna say
it's not that big of a deal...
-Yeah.
268
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,266
...but it's really not
that big of a deal.
269
00:08:57,266 --> 00:08:58,367
-[Jonathan] I don't know.
-[Jasmine] All right.
270
00:08:58,367 --> 00:08:59,567
You want to see
the main bedroom?
271
00:08:59,567 --> 00:09:02,467
-[Brook] Okay.
-[Jonathan] I'm seeing
another open wall...
272
00:09:02,467 --> 00:09:03,600
-Yes.
-...and then...
273
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,867
[Jasmine]
But, like, imagine...
274
00:09:04,867 --> 00:09:06,800
Just, like, close your eyes
for a second,
275
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,667
imagine there's a door
on the room,
276
00:09:08,667 --> 00:09:11,166
and there's baseboards
and everything's painted.
277
00:09:11,166 --> 00:09:12,467
Jonathan, your eyes
aren't closed.
278
00:09:12,467 --> 00:09:15,367
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm still pretty shocked
about all this.
279
00:09:15,367 --> 00:09:17,000
I... I don't know.
280
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,600
I feel like, "Are you just
doing what Brook wants?
281
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,967
"Like, am I... Am I getting
shoved to the side here?"
282
00:09:22,967 --> 00:09:25,900
I just see
a lot of dollar signs flying,
283
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:27,266
a lot of work going.
284
00:09:27,266 --> 00:09:28,233
This is a lot.
285
00:09:31,100 --> 00:09:32,934
[Jasmine]
Definitely a lot of work.
286
00:09:32,934 --> 00:09:35,300
But I do think
it has a lot of potential,
287
00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:39,200
especially because it has
this en suite situation.
288
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,166
[Brook] Hey, you...
You nailed it on character.
289
00:09:41,166 --> 00:09:43,166
[Jonathan] Yes. Definitely
got a lot of character
for this room.
290
00:09:43,166 --> 00:09:45,166
-This might be
too much character.
-A little too much.
291
00:09:45,166 --> 00:09:46,767
-A little too much, yeah.
-I might peel that off.
292
00:09:46,767 --> 00:09:49,367
[Jonathan] You know,
it'll be nice to have
a bigger bathroom.
293
00:09:49,367 --> 00:09:51,300
So this is actually
where your furnace is.
294
00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:52,600
-[Brook] Okay.
-So a lot of my clients
295
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,200
will take an old furnace
like this...
296
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,867
-Uh-huh.
-...and put it up in the attic
297
00:09:55,867 --> 00:09:58,200
and reclaim the space
as square footage.
298
00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,266
-Oh!
-Okay.
299
00:09:59,266 --> 00:10:00,367
Remembering that you don't
have to do that now.
300
00:10:00,367 --> 00:10:02,033
-Right, down the road,
down the road.
-Okay. Okay.
301
00:10:02,033 --> 00:10:03,500
[upbeat music playing]
302
00:10:03,500 --> 00:10:05,266
-This is your backyard.
-Wow!
303
00:10:05,266 --> 00:10:06,767
-This is big.
-[Jonathan] Pretty good.
304
00:10:06,767 --> 00:10:09,100
-[Brook]
Every party is at our house.
-[chuckles]
305
00:10:09,100 --> 00:10:10,200
[Jasmine] Walk with me.
306
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,300
-[Brook] Oh, my gosh!
-[Jonathan] Wow.
307
00:10:11,300 --> 00:10:12,500
[Brook] We could have a pool.
308
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:14,367
-Could have two pools.
-Oh, my gosh.
309
00:10:14,367 --> 00:10:16,367
[chuckles] The backyard...
310
00:10:16,367 --> 00:10:18,467
-Check.
-Yeah, the backyard for sure.
311
00:10:18,467 --> 00:10:20,367
[Brook] I don't know
if we'll find something
this big in Orange.
312
00:10:20,367 --> 00:10:22,967
I'd still definitely like
to try to get closer.
313
00:10:22,967 --> 00:10:24,734
Maybe less work,
314
00:10:24,734 --> 00:10:25,834
little bit more finished.
315
00:10:25,834 --> 00:10:27,266
[upbeat music playing]
316
00:10:29,567 --> 00:10:32,166
[narrator]
So Jasmine lines up a house
in the heart of Orange
317
00:10:32,166 --> 00:10:34,233
that she thinks
is more of a compromise.
318
00:10:34,734 --> 00:10:36,867
[speaking indistinctly]
319
00:10:36,867 --> 00:10:39,934
[Brook] Oh, my gosh!
This house looks cute, huh?
320
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,934
[upbeat music playing]
321
00:10:43,934 --> 00:10:45,166
This is so fun!
322
00:10:45,166 --> 00:10:47,000
-[Jasmine] Are you surprised?
-[Brook] Yes!
323
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,667
-How are you?
-Here in Southern California.
324
00:10:48,667 --> 00:10:50,567
-[Brook] I know, right?
-[Jasmine] What a fun car.
325
00:10:50,567 --> 00:10:51,934
-[Jonathan]
Hi, how's it going?
-[Brook] Thank you.
326
00:10:51,934 --> 00:10:53,667
-[Jasmine] Oh, my goodness.
-[Brook chuckles]
327
00:10:53,667 --> 00:10:54,667
It's in Orange,
328
00:10:54,667 --> 00:10:56,166
it's within their price range,
329
00:10:56,166 --> 00:10:58,100
it has a lot of the things
that Brook's looking for,
330
00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:00,200
it has a lot of the things
that Jonathan's looking for.
331
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:01,266
It's going to need some work,
332
00:11:01,266 --> 00:11:03,367
but they could
immediately move in,
333
00:11:03,367 --> 00:11:05,100
work on it over time.
334
00:11:05,100 --> 00:11:07,367
It's just a question
of how much
they're willing to live with
335
00:11:07,367 --> 00:11:08,567
and for how long?
336
00:11:08,567 --> 00:11:10,100
[Brook]
I really like this detail
337
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:12,266
-on the wood, on the outside.
-[Jonathan] Does look good.
338
00:11:12,266 --> 00:11:14,200
Really a lot of charm,
a lot of charm here.
339
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,767
-[Jonathan] Got a garage.
-[Brook chuckles] Yeah.
340
00:11:15,767 --> 00:11:17,767
-We're happy you found
something in Orange.
-Yeah.
341
00:11:17,767 --> 00:11:18,734
Let's go ahead inside. Ready?
342
00:11:18,734 --> 00:11:19,867
-Okay.
-Yeah, let's go.
343
00:11:19,867 --> 00:11:21,100
-[Jasmine] Come on in.
-[Brook] Okay.
344
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:22,967
Ooh.
345
00:11:22,967 --> 00:11:27,066
-Okay. Oh, wow!
-Oh, wow!
Look at that fireplace.
346
00:11:27,066 --> 00:11:29,166
[Brook] Yeah, that's the first
thing I noticed for sure.
347
00:11:29,166 --> 00:11:31,100
This is cool.
It's got a lot of character.
348
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:32,066
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
-[Brook] Okay.
349
00:11:32,066 --> 00:11:33,867
[Jonathan]
I did notice this, though.
350
00:11:33,867 --> 00:11:35,867
-[Brook] The, uh... What?
-A little furnace.
351
00:11:35,867 --> 00:11:39,100
So that means it doesn't have
central air or heat.
352
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:40,367
-[Jasmine] Right.
-...you know.
353
00:11:40,367 --> 00:11:41,767
AC would be nice to have.
354
00:11:41,767 --> 00:11:43,166
You didn't have AC
on your list.
355
00:11:43,166 --> 00:11:44,367
-No, I'm just kidding.
-[all laughing]
356
00:11:44,367 --> 00:11:45,667
-That's true.
-It's true.

[upbeat music playing]
358
00:11:48,367 --> 00:11:50,266
[Brook] Nice old tile, huh?
359
00:11:50,266 --> 00:11:51,867
[Jonathan chuckles dryly]
Yeah, that's interesting.
360
00:11:51,867 --> 00:11:54,166
[Brook] Look at this, uh, oven
behind you.
361
00:11:54,166 --> 00:11:57,600
This is probably
older than all of us.
362
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,166
[Jasmine] Here's what I think
you could do.
363
00:11:59,166 --> 00:12:00,567
You could take out
this wall completely,
364
00:12:00,567 --> 00:12:02,567
which would give you room
for a nice big island
365
00:12:02,567 --> 00:12:05,066
with seating,
replace everything.
366
00:12:05,066 --> 00:12:07,367
New cabinets, new countertops,
367
00:12:07,367 --> 00:12:09,667
new backsplash,
new appliances,
368
00:12:09,667 --> 00:12:11,266
really add in
some of the charm
369
00:12:11,266 --> 00:12:13,100
that you want to have
in this room.
370
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:17,033
It would take about $50,000
to upgrade this kitchen.
371
00:12:17,033 --> 00:12:18,734
[Brook] That sounds like
a full remodel.
372
00:12:18,734 --> 00:12:21,467
I would be
willing to do that.
373
00:12:21,467 --> 00:12:23,100
That takes
our whole budget, though.
374
00:12:23,967 --> 00:12:25,734
[upbeat music playing]
375
00:12:27,367 --> 00:12:29,000
[Jasmine]
This is the guest bedroom.
376
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,266
It seems pretty big, actually,
for a guest room.
377
00:12:31,266 --> 00:12:34,266
-At night, it's gonna be
real dark in here...
-[Brook] Mmhmm.
378
00:12:34,266 --> 00:12:36,266
...'cause there's no
can lighting.
379
00:12:36,266 --> 00:12:38,100
Just figuring out the lighting
in this house,
380
00:12:38,100 --> 00:12:39,200
it would be a challenge.
381
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,100
[Jonathan]
I've never done them before.
382
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:43,266
-We could try.
We'll put a lot of holes...
-Don't end up on my show.
383
00:12:43,266 --> 00:12:45,000
-[both laugh]
-Don't do it.
384
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,100
[Jonathan speaks indistinctly]
385
00:12:46,100 --> 00:12:48,100
We're gonna have
a bunch of holes in the wall.
386
00:12:48,100 --> 00:12:49,166
-[indistinct]
-Yeah.
387
00:12:49,166 --> 00:12:51,000
As far as electrical goes,
you want to make sure
388
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,200
it's done professionally
389
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,667
because otherwise
you have an electrical fire
390
00:12:53,667 --> 00:12:55,033
-and that's that.
-[Jonathan]
Yeah, you don't want that.
391
00:12:55,033 --> 00:12:57,367
-Okay, fine. I won't do it.
-[Jasmine] Yeah.
392
00:12:57,367 --> 00:13:01,300
So, for these two bedrooms,
this is the bathroom here.
393
00:13:01,300 --> 00:13:03,367
Whoa, that's weird.
This used to be a tub.
394
00:13:03,367 --> 00:13:05,567
Look at how low
that shower valve is.
395
00:13:05,567 --> 00:13:08,266
Turn it off...
On and off with your foot?
396
00:13:08,266 --> 00:13:09,867
It's the weirdest thing
I've ever seen.
397
00:13:09,867 --> 00:13:13,567
-All right, well, bathroom
is an easy renovation?
-No.
398
00:13:13,567 --> 00:13:14,467
-No.
-No.
399
00:13:14,467 --> 00:13:16,033
-No. Okay, so...
-No.
400
00:13:16,033 --> 00:13:17,600
I love Brook's enthusiasm,
401
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,667
but unfortunately,
I don't think she really knows
402
00:13:19,667 --> 00:13:21,266
what goes into a renovation.
403
00:13:21,266 --> 00:13:24,066
She's definitely more of,
like, a "Let's just do it.
It's gonna be fine."
404
00:13:24,066 --> 00:13:27,367
type of person, whereas
Jonathan seems
a little bit more calculated.
405
00:13:27,367 --> 00:13:29,867
I... I think it's good.
They're kind of
Yin and Yang, right?
406
00:13:29,867 --> 00:13:32,200
[Brook]
The main bathroom feels tiny.
407
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,934
Personally, I can't imagine
getting ready in this.
408
00:13:34,934 --> 00:13:36,367
-Like, trying to blow dry
your hair...
-No way.
409
00:13:36,367 --> 00:13:37,934
-...you crack your...
-Yeah, right here.
410
00:13:37,934 --> 00:13:39,467
...elbow right into the glass.
411
00:13:39,467 --> 00:13:41,367
There is a way to make
this bathroom work.
412
00:13:41,367 --> 00:13:42,600
-[Brook] Okay.
-It's not this way.
413
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,367
-Yeah.
-Yeah, I really needed you
here to say that, though,
414
00:13:45,367 --> 00:13:47,867
because I probably would have
freaked out without you.
415
00:13:47,867 --> 00:13:50,867
But I would argue that
the bathroom is functional.
416
00:13:50,867 --> 00:13:53,367
You could move in
and do the renovation
417
00:13:53,367 --> 00:13:55,834
-when the time comes.
-[Brook] Yeah.
418
00:13:55,834 --> 00:13:56,967
[Jasmine]
This is the main bedroom.
419
00:13:56,967 --> 00:13:58,467
-Whoa.
-[Jonathan]
What the heck is that?
420
00:13:58,467 --> 00:13:59,967
[Brook] It's a little weird.
421
00:13:59,967 --> 00:14:01,200
[Jonathan]
I feel like I'm in Vegas.
422
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,734
[Brook] That I actually like.
423
00:14:03,734 --> 00:14:05,734
[Jonathan] You know,
it's good size, everything.
424
00:14:05,734 --> 00:14:07,233
-It's a good potential.
-[Brook] Yeah.
425
00:14:10,066 --> 00:14:12,867
This is nice.
426
00:14:12,867 --> 00:14:14,934
-[Jonathan] I don't know
if it's big enough, though.
-[Brook] Oh, wow.
427
00:14:14,934 --> 00:14:17,066
[Jasmine] And then this isn't
necessarily your tree,
428
00:14:17,066 --> 00:14:19,767
but in the city of Orange...
429
00:14:19,767 --> 00:14:22,967
-[Brook] Yay!
-...any fruit tree
that's hanging over
430
00:14:22,967 --> 00:14:25,467
-into your property,
the fruit is yours.
-Uh-huh.

-Oh, nice.

00:14:26,667 --> 00:14:28,934
So, this...

00:14:28,934 --> 00:14:31,266
Here we go.
Look at us

[Jasmine] What are y'all
thinking about this house?

I mean, it's pretty turnkey.
438

Like we could move in
right now

00:14:39,367 --> 00:14:41,166
you know,
and do some stuff to it later.
440
00:14:41,166 --> 00:14:43,734
Oh, I would want to do
quite a few renovations.
441
00:14:43,734 --> 00:14:46,367
I don't know, I think
I would like to see something
442
00:14:46,367 --> 00:14:49,166
maybe at the top end
of our budget, you know,
443
00:14:49,166 --> 00:14:52,100
-that doesn't need
as much construction.
-Okay.

some compromise.

is showing Brook and Jonathan
453
00:15:13,266 --> 00:15:14,567
something that needs less work
454
00:15:14,567 --> 00:15:16,467
and is closer
to Jonathan's price point,
455
00:15:16,467 --> 00:15:19,000
so they can have an option
that's truly move-in ready,
456
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,166
but it's another house
outside the city of Orange.
457
00:15:22,166 --> 00:15:24,266
[Jasmine]
Technically in Anaheim,
but we're close to Orange.
458
00:15:24,266 --> 00:15:26,533
It does look ranch style,

-Yeah.

Far as the budget goes,

under your max budget.
462
00:15:32,266 --> 00:15:34,166
-[Jonathan chuckles] Oh, wow.
-[Brook]
That's a lot of money.
463

I wanted to make sure that
Jonathan saw something
464
00:15:36,667 --> 00:15:38,266
that he could move into,

not have to do any work to,
466
00:15:40,166 --> 00:15:41,767
and that was
at the top of the budget.
467
00:15:41,767 --> 00:15:43,867
But there's also a lot
for Brook in this house.

-Wow. Open floor plan.
-Oh, yeah.

think of the kitchen?

00:15:56,266 --> 00:15:58,000
I like it. I mean,
look at this island.

this is a turnkey kitchen.
477
00:16:01,667 --> 00:16:03,367
It is. I won't argue there.

It's pretty big, actually.

Okay, the color's obviously
a little bit jarring,

the plate cover back on.

Okay. We're gonna

00:16:51,567 --> 00:16:53,133
[Jonathan]
Yeah, look at that, huh?
502
00:16:53,133 --> 00:16:54,567
-[Jasmine] Come on in here.
-[Brook] Okay.
503
00:16:54,567 --> 00:16:55,867
[Jasmine] It's a little funky.
504
00:16:55,867 --> 00:16:57,166
[Brook] Oh. Oh, another...
505
00:16:58,166 --> 00:16:59,567
door on the toilet.
506
00:16:59,567 --> 00:17:01,433
Where do I go? [chuckles]
507
00:17:01,433 --> 00:17:03,066
-[Jasmine] Right?
-[Brook] It's awkward.
508
00:17:03,066 --> 00:17:05,667
-[Jasmine]
This is the main bathroom...
-[Brook] Oh, God.
509
00:17:05,667 --> 00:17:07,767
...but it's also connected
to the hallway.
510
00:17:07,767 --> 00:17:09,567
-[Brook] Uh-huh.
-So it's an en suite...
511
00:17:09,567 --> 00:17:11,867
-Okay. Kind of...
-...but it's...
512
00:17:11,867 --> 00:17:13,467
I mean, you wouldn't
want to be sitting here
513
00:17:13,467 --> 00:17:14,533
and open this door.
514
00:17:14,533 --> 00:17:16,233
Yeah, you better lock it,
or else you're getting hit.
515
00:17:16,233 --> 00:17:18,567
Reconfiguring this
so it works,
516
00:17:18,567 --> 00:17:21,266
it's gonna be 20, $25,000.
517
00:17:21,266 --> 00:17:24,100
It really sucks to think
we're at the top of our budget
518
00:17:24,100 --> 00:17:25,567
and this is
the type of bathroom
519
00:17:25,567 --> 00:17:27,400
that we have to deal with.
520
00:17:27,967 --> 00:17:29,367
Okay.
521
00:17:29,367 --> 00:17:31,100
There's no wow factor.
522
00:17:31,100 --> 00:17:32,433
[Jonathan]
It is a little small.
523
00:17:32,433 --> 00:17:34,934
It's definitely not
what I had in mind
524
00:17:34,934 --> 00:17:36,834
for our bedroom.
525
00:17:36,834 --> 00:17:38,033
[Jasmine] A queen bed in here,
526
00:17:38,033 --> 00:17:40,266
you would still have enough
room for nightstands,
527
00:17:40,266 --> 00:17:42,166
A king bed, though,
it would get real tight.
528
00:17:42,166 --> 00:17:43,934
[upbeat music playing]
529
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:47,467
[Brook] Okay.
530
00:17:47,467 --> 00:17:49,667
-I see what you're doing here.
-[Jonathan] Oh, wow.
531
00:17:49,667 --> 00:17:51,000
[Brook] This is huge.
532
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,033
This is, like,
the biggest patio ever.
533
00:17:53,033 --> 00:17:54,567
-[Jonathan] Yeah,
this is a nice backyard.
-[Brook] Mmhmm.
534
00:17:54,567 --> 00:17:57,000
-[Jonathan] Really big.
-It's not the city of Orange,
535
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,567
-but this backyard
helps a lot.
-Yeah.
536
00:17:59,567 --> 00:18:01,667
It is ready to move in
right now.
537
00:18:01,667 --> 00:18:03,734
[Brook] Mmhmm. You gave us
some really good options,
538
00:18:03,734 --> 00:18:06,100
but we're gonna go home,
do some thinking
539
00:18:06,100 --> 00:18:07,834
and write out
the pros and cons.

-[Jasmine] Hello! Hi, hi, hi!
-[Jonathan]
Hey, how's it going?
544
00:18:19,166 --> 00:18:22,934
So, how is
the decision-making going?
545
00:18:22,934 --> 00:18:24,166
It's been a little hard.
546
00:18:24,166 --> 00:18:25,567
There's a lot to think about.
547
00:18:25,567 --> 00:18:27,867
This is probably
the most important decision
of our lives.
548
00:18:27,867 --> 00:18:29,634
Let's start with
the first house that we saw.
549
00:18:29,634 --> 00:18:31,667
The cul-de-sac house.
550
00:18:31,667 --> 00:18:33,567
[upbeat music playing]
551
00:18:33,567 --> 00:18:36,467
[Brook] It's my price point
that I wanted, at 800.
552
00:18:36,467 --> 00:18:38,266
So I'm happy.
553
00:18:38,266 --> 00:18:39,867
It's not
in the city of Orange.
554
00:18:39,867 --> 00:18:41,333
[Jonathan] We wanted
something more turnkey,
555
00:18:41,333 --> 00:18:44,166
not a full-blown renovation
right off the bat.
556
00:18:44,166 --> 00:18:47,367
[Brook] But I do kind of like
that it's a blank slate.
557
00:18:47,367 --> 00:18:48,967
We can really make it our own
right off the bat.
558
00:18:48,967 --> 00:18:51,266
And that backyard really
did blow us out the way.
559
00:18:51,266 --> 00:18:52,433
[Jasmine] Let's talk about
the next house.
560
00:18:52,433 --> 00:18:54,233
-It was in the city of Orange.
-[Brook] Yes.
561
00:18:54,233 --> 00:18:57,133
[upbeat music playing]
562
00:18:57,133 --> 00:18:59,867
[Brook] It is slightly
under our budget,
which is amazing.
563
00:18:59,867 --> 00:19:01,233
[Jonathan] It's pretty much
move-in ready.
564
00:19:01,233 --> 00:19:04,634
-Any negatives?
-I was taken back
by the showers.
565
00:19:04,634 --> 00:19:07,834
And the main bathroom
was small and weird.
566
00:19:07,834 --> 00:19:09,367
[Brook] It doesn't have
the biggest backyard.
567
00:19:09,367 --> 00:19:10,667
It definitely needs some work.
568
00:19:10,667 --> 00:19:12,533
Okay, let's talk about
the Blue Ranch.
569
00:19:12,533 --> 00:19:14,934
[upbeat music playing]
570
00:19:14,934 --> 00:19:17,467
[Brook] It's hard. It's not
in the city of Orange,
571
00:19:17,467 --> 00:19:20,066
and I don't want to spend
our full budget up front.
572
00:19:20,066 --> 00:19:21,233
Of all the houses,
573
00:19:21,233 --> 00:19:23,567
this was the most
turnkey, right?
574
00:19:23,567 --> 00:19:24,934
I... I enjoyed this one.
575
00:19:24,934 --> 00:19:26,433
It's a good
entertaining space.
576
00:19:26,433 --> 00:19:29,667
The kitchen layout was nice,
backyard is big enough
577
00:19:29,667 --> 00:19:31,266
and covered
where you can hang out.
578
00:19:31,266 --> 00:19:33,533
[Brook] But the main concerns
are in the size of the rooms.
579
00:19:33,533 --> 00:19:35,233
You know,
they're all really small,
580
00:19:35,233 --> 00:19:37,834
and then you go
into the primary bathroom
581
00:19:37,834 --> 00:19:39,367
and it's just a mess.
582
00:19:39,367 --> 00:19:40,667
But it was ready to go.
583
00:19:40,667 --> 00:19:42,233
We can move in there
right now.
584
00:19:42,934 --> 00:19:44,767
This is the first time that
585
00:19:44,767 --> 00:19:47,467
Jonathan and Brook are going
to be living together
586
00:19:47,467 --> 00:19:50,367
and [inhales deeply]
that's a big step.
587
00:19:50,367 --> 00:19:52,100
I don't know which way
this is going to go.
588
00:19:52,100 --> 00:19:55,166
[upbeat music playing]
589
00:19:59,967 --> 00:20:01,100
[doorbell rings]
590
00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:02,333
-[Jasmine] Hello!
-[Brook] Hi.
591
00:20:02,333 --> 00:20:03,233
[Jonathan] Hey!
592
00:20:03,233 --> 00:20:04,367
-[Brook] Welcome, come on in.
-Hi, friends!
593
00:20:04,367 --> 00:20:06,867
Surprise! We went
with the cul-de-sac house.
594
00:20:06,867 --> 00:20:08,634
I know
it's a little bit shocking,
595
00:20:08,634 --> 00:20:10,567
but I love that
it was a blank slate
596
00:20:10,567 --> 00:20:13,367
so we can get in and start
making it our own right away.
597
00:20:13,367 --> 00:20:15,166
[Jonathan] I gave in
because I love Brook
598
00:20:15,166 --> 00:20:17,233
and I want to start
our future together.
599
00:20:17,233 --> 00:20:19,367
And although
it isn't the city of Orange,
600
00:20:19,367 --> 00:20:20,834
honestly, I love
everything about it.
601
00:20:20,834 --> 00:20:21,734
How's it going so far?
602
00:20:21,734 --> 00:20:23,266
It might not look
that different in here.
603
00:20:23,266 --> 00:20:25,467
A lot of the work
has been under the house
604
00:20:25,467 --> 00:20:27,867
or outside the house,
so you can't really see it,
605
00:20:27,867 --> 00:20:29,166
but he's been
working on some plumbing.
606
00:20:29,166 --> 00:20:31,233
-Just what you wanted to do.
-[Jonathan] Yeah, exactly.
607
00:20:32,066 --> 00:20:34,567
The house was on the market
for 800,000.
608
00:20:34,567 --> 00:20:35,567
[Brook]
In such a tough market,
609
00:20:35,567 --> 00:20:38,433
we did have to go
a little above asking,
610
00:20:38,433 --> 00:20:40,133
but I think
it's really worth it.
611
00:20:40,133 --> 00:20:41,867
We're gonna be able
to grow a lot in this home.
612
00:20:41,867 --> 00:20:44,834
Hopefully, our renovations
should be done
in the next month,
613
00:20:44,834 --> 00:20:47,166
and we don't have to drive
anywhere to see each other.
614
00:20:47,166 --> 00:20:50,266
What's the average length
and width of an island?
615
00:20:50,266 --> 00:20:51,834
8x5 is huge.
616
00:20:51,834 --> 00:20:54,667
So go, maybe, 5 ft
from this corner.
Let's see how that feels.
617
00:20:54,667 --> 00:20:58,433
We're pretty much gonna
do the exact kitchen design
that Jasmine gave us.
618
00:20:58,433 --> 00:21:00,233
We both fell in love with it.
619
00:21:00,233 --> 00:21:01,867
[Jonathan]
Having Jasmine help us
620
00:21:01,867 --> 00:21:03,533
is like having
a magic genie here.
621
00:21:03,533 --> 00:21:04,834
We're just so lucky.
622
00:21:04,834 --> 00:21:07,300
I have one little
housewarming gift.
623
00:21:08,767 --> 00:21:10,367
-Okay.
-[Jonathan] Wow.
624
00:21:10,367 --> 00:21:11,333
[Brook] Oh, my God!
625
00:21:11,333 --> 00:21:12,567
It's been so fun to be
626
00:21:12,567 --> 00:21:14,767
a part of Brook
and Jonathan's journey.
627
00:21:14,767 --> 00:21:17,266
I love house hunting,
so to be able to do it
628
00:21:17,266 --> 00:21:21,033
and help people who are
buying their first home,
it's awesome.
629
00:21:21,033 --> 00:21:22,834
[Brook]
I love them. Oh, my gosh.
630
00:21:22,834 --> 00:21:24,133
-[Jonathan]
That's gonna look great.
-Yeah.
631
00:21:24,133 --> 00:21:26,166
We need to hurry up
and get this done
so I can put these in.
632
00:21:26,166 --> 00:21:27,166
[chuckles]
