Family Fixer-Upper [Stephen & Julie]

With two dogs, a toddler and a newborn, Stephen and Julie have outgrown their home, and are hoping to find a sprawling suburban property where they can entertain family and friends in style. They want all the comforts, including a home office and a pool, plus they’re looking for a stylish and unique home that stands out from the crowd. Enter Property Brothers Drew Scott and Jonathan Scott. They promise to lead the couple to their dream home, but since they want more space than they can afford, they’ve first got to sell them on the potential of a fixer-upper. They tour a few options and are wowed by Jonathan’s impressive design plans. And when they finally make a decision, Drew goes in with an aggressive strategy to get the house for less. With an ample budget and a five-week time line, the couple feels confident.
