@@saraali5533through, the only thing I loved about that second house was the bathroom but I won't pay 50 thousand extra to have it plus I hated everything else about the house.
I'm surprised they went with the walk up. It definitely had more space and that bathroom was opulent but it seemed that the first choice would have been a better option since it was under budget and had more features they were looking for. They made the right choice for them and the cat seems happy. She's 19 and probably doesn't want her own room anyway.
Seriously, most pets adapt to whatever you give them as long as they have familiar smells and their people. I've moved house 11 times and the only concern I ever had regarding our 3 cats was if the house was located on a quiet street. As for the rest, the cats didn't seem to give a damn & they settled in quickly and ruled the neighbourhood. And stole whole roasts from other people's kitchens & brought them home. Oops!😀 And seriously, how long would you spend staring out of the window in your bathroom? Him: "Hey, honey. I'm just going to go look out the bathroom window if you need me." Her: "How long will you be?" Him: "Oh, about forty-five minutes." Her: "Oh, okay. Have fun with that." Him: "Call me when dinner's ready." Not a conversation that will ever happen!!!!!!
Yep...have to agree with everyone else on here. They chose the worst house of the three! So much for her spread sheet. Hope this isn't a preview of her business acumen!
house 3: how can they sell that closet/pantry as a 3rd bedrom if there's no window; in Germany (where I'm from), there has to be a certain amount of windows/window size for a room to be considered a room and not just a closet (dependent on the size of the room). Also, there's no point in needing a picture window/ Christmas tree window if it's on any other floor than the ground floor (street-ish level), since people can't see what's behind it anyway if it's any further up
I work at the urban planning division of a city in the province of Quebec. My job is to issue building permits. I would never issue a permit with plans that have that little window-less room as a bedroom. Having a window in a bedroom is mandatory in Canada and it needs to be big enough to give off a minimum of sunlight. There are also ventilation issues and for smaller buildings that don't have a sprinkler system, you need to be able to escape through your window in case there is a fire in your house and no way to go out the door.
I can understand if the cat is very loud (and Siamese are always meowing). However, her need for Christmas tree areas was stupider. People only have Christmas trees up for a month or so.
This episode is subtitled "First World Problems" ... Basing your home purchase on a separate bedroom for a cat and enough windows to show off multiple Christmas trees 🙄🙄 Oh, and a toilet with a view!! I loved how the realtor mocked her reaction to the "world's smallest bin" in the second house 🤣
What they fail to mention on the show is the monthly HOA/maintenance fees on that first condo is well over 1K a month. I would've personally gone for the Wicker Park loft out of the three choices.
Walk up is the way to go in Chicago. Anything with an elevator and air condition units in the windows is a no. Special assessments for when the elevator goes down and it will. Spending that kind of money with no central heat and air is a no.
Thanks for that. I love the program but I know it doesn't cover every factor - and it can't in the time ... Interesting though to know what some of those other factors are. For an other episode, someone pointed out that the seemingly most attractive house didn't have heating or a/c .... and would be very expensive to install - not off street parking.
I used to love this show. But then, a friend who participated in it told me. Before you apply, you must already have a contract with one of the apartments. The show pays you to participate. It is basically a show that advertises agents and shows apartment options in cities.
I don’t really think the cat should have its own room, and why didn’t they choose house 1?! Also the cat doesn’t even need a large room if they’re going to give her one.
Shezza Sparkle -me too. I don't read the comments before I watch but sometimes the first comment that's visible ruins it (for me it's when they hate the couple).
I find the list unrealistic 🤔 like a room for the cat (I love cats but mine don’t have a room), a window in the bathroom (the reason is: would feel like home...????), a window to put the tree in front of it... okay... it’s their first house it doesn’t need to be perfect.
You're right samanthinlove. I wonder sometimes if when these couples see some of the other choices they could have made if they don't regret the one they already bought. I've seen many episodes where they choose the worst home of the three.
My 26 year old daughter lived in Edgewater for 3 years and never felt unsafe. She moved to Rogers Park last year which is more iffy but she's in a good part of Rogers Park.
People just don't know what to do with so much money, they are more worried about the stupid cat, give it away, when is so many people that will be happy with a little place to live .

House #1! What were they thinking?
That first place is insaaaaane so much space for the price!
The first condo was the best
+Jeri Selinger Not everyone likes stinky ass cats, duh.
Why does the cat need a room?😕
Maybe because she doesn't want the cat in all the house, to destroy furniture and whatever.
What the?? House #1 was the clear choice!
I thought so too.
Lol Ikr! But take the bathroom from the second house & put it in the first! Boooom that’s my house!

They don't know what they want would have gone with option 1
I love the way, they take Myki, into consideration. What a lovely couple! I wish them, the very best. Hi, from the land of Oz.

I like house 1 the best but I'm guessing location played a big part in their decision.
As much as you love your cat , looking specifically for a whole room for that cat is just ... funny and weird ...the cat wouldn't care anyway .
I can understand if the cat is very loud (and Siamese are always meowing). However, her need for Christmas tree areas was stupider. People only have Christmas trees up for a month or so.
The first one was my favorite. I would have gone for that one.
They're ridiculous! Worrying about a space for a 19 yr old cat?? & Christmas tree windows ?
I loved her spreadsheet idea! That would so be me! Hahaha! (I agree with everyone, though, it should have been apt #1!)
I did that - useful but not the whole story. How a house feels is more complex than that.
We seem to forget 100yrs ago people were a different size and height and they were not concerned with large kitchens bathrooms or closets
Exactly but for that house to be updated like that yet built in 1924 was spectacular. It was unique, and spacious with great views.

I loved how the realtor mocked her reaction to the "world's smallest bin" in the second house 🤣
The kitchen in house #1 is way bigger than mine and she says no room enough for cabinets? How many cook appliances she wants to keep in the kitchen?
What they fail to mention on the show is the monthly HOA/maintenance fees on that first condo is well over 1K a month. I would've personally gone for the Wicker Park loft out of the three choices.
Was that mentioned in the video? I didn't hear about any HOA fees.

The show pays you to participate.
It is basically a show that advertises agents and shows apartment options in cities.
What??? If that's the case, then the whole premise of the show is deceptive and dishonest.
she needs multiple Christmas trees?
The first and third houses were better.
Even though the first house was the nicest inside, their choice was in the best area of Chicago.
I don’t really think the cat should have its own room, and why didn’t they choose house 1?! Also the cat doesn’t even need a large room if they’re going to give her one.
What should have gone in the trash is the sheet she made. It stank. Clearly everything decided against it.
I like the Loft look!!! My cat stays with me in my room. I wouldn't want a separate room for my cat. I hate the spreadsheet!!!
Wonder how much HOA fees were?
Cat room?
I like the house they chose. I am not a fan of the high rise. I like the Lake Michigan view but that about it.
I hate when you scroll in the comments and they say WHICH house they picked! Spoiler Alert! Now I don't want to watch it...😠
Shezza Sparkle -me too. I don't read the comments before I watch but sometimes the first comment that's visible ruins it (for me it's when they hate the couple).

What a fluffy kitty!
I don't think my parents mentioned or cared that much of my space as this lady did for a cat :/
House no. 1 is so pretty 😍
I find the list unrealistic 🤔 like a room for the cat (I love cats but mine don’t have a room), a window in the bathroom (the reason is: would feel like home...????), a window to put the tree in front of it... okay... it’s their first house it doesn’t need to be perfect.
I need everyone to go to 12:32 when he says "I like the brick." Sir no you do not. That patch job looked HORRIBLE.
Fake show! They would never pick #2 over #1! #2 looks like track house, bla, bla, bla.
Truth Seeker
Dude it is fake. They had that house before coming onto the show.
You're right samanthinlove. I wonder sometimes if when these couples see some of the other choices they could have made if they don't regret the one they already bought. I've seen many episodes where they choose the worst home of the three.
Truth Seeker Hahahahahaha - that’s because #1 wasn’t really on the market, they used that property for the show
2 was blah.
#1 was clearly the best choice. Although, the neighborhood wasn't the best choice. Safety wise...
Let's compare 2017 crime reports.
Lincoln Park
Theft - 1,201
Assault - 247
Vandalism - 188
Burglary- 73
Robbery - 73
Edgewater
Theft - 843
Assault - 487
Vandalism - 181
Burglary - 92
Robbery - 70
Wicker Park
Theft - 1,379
Assault - 388
Vandalism - 257
Burglary - 178
Robbery - 137
Edgewater has the highest rate of assaults but lower rates of other crimes.
My 26 year old daughter lived in Edgewater for 3 years and never felt unsafe. She moved to Rogers Park last year which is more iffy but she's in a good part of Rogers Park.
People just don't know what to do with so much money, they are more worried about the stupid cat, give it away, when is so many people that will be happy with a little place to live .
1st and 3rd were the best
your kidding right? that was the worst one! #1 was the obvious best one!
#1 was the one
They look so similar in the pictures. Hehe
" Christmas tree windows " and " private cat room". Do they have sex?. ( grow up people ).
Her spreadsheet.. Very Capricorn :)
These people are insane!!!!! This can’t be real. It has nothing that they liked!!!
Shes a lot
The loft the loft!
And the internet votes for #1 which didn't matter though 😁
