If I ever went to sell my home I would rent at least 2 storage unit to take out 3/4 of my stuff. Then, I would repaint everything a neutral color. Open all windows, make it nice and bright. Clean like crazy. Hire a stager.

[@ngahuiroimatanutira-langda4153]

Exactly. Depersonalization is key

[@jainthorne4136]

Or maybe go through and see first what you are just keeping out of habit. It might mean you only need one storage space.

[@karissakline6765]

I hate when they don’t have a thorough update if they got any offers/sold! It’s my favorite part to see the reaction at the end and hear the results.

[@Slytherin14567]

Seriously!!! I watched it to the end, and then said AND!!?? So did they sell it?

[@themrs.howell]

Love episodes like this where the sellers are not only understanding of their need to do some updating, but they actually agree and express that to Sofie respectfully. This couple was so grateful to her and her team!

[@unaizaaslam4050]

Sad they couldn’t fix the house up for themselves earlier

[@AScrapOfKindness]

Seven years ago, we emptied our house of everything, had new floors installed, and the entire interior and exterior painted. While the work was being done, we took the opportunity to go through all our "stuff" and decided what would go back in. Approximately 80% of everything was donated, gifted, or dumped. Not only did the house get a new lease on life, but so did we. We have not brought anything new into the house, but it's amazing how we always find items we have not been using and no longer need. Most of the time we all have the space to grow, we just don't stop to really look at the space objectively.

[@jenniferbraun7269]

This couple - I really felt like they made a good, supportive team. Just so sweet.

[@KasSommers]

The plaster inlays are great, it's a shame they were removed. I know this is an old show, perhaps they would leave the inlays and highlight them these days, it's a unique characteristic of the house. Great views.

[@mariaseppanen3609]

Outgrown? They seem to have two living rooms and two dining tables on top of two bedrooms...thats plenty of space, even before the remake....

[@AScrapOfKindness]

Not to mention the view and a yard large enough to have a playground for the kids, let alone entertaining.

[@lindamarie6574]

Adorable couple and Sophie as usual with her team did a great job.

[@virginiamosier9115]

Take down the heavy drapes and the nice yard will be noticed. Wallpaper and crazy colors have to go.

[@cjhoward409]

Fast forward 15 years and these same “made over” homes would be having a wall taken out and an island put in. Lol

[@annes.9228]

I am trying to find ideas how to renovate my home. I have too much furniture; bookshelves, chairs, tables, everything just too much. I have to get rid of most of them. After that cleaning, painting, some fixing and then again cleaning. But first decluttering, it will be challenging but worth it

[@MarcPhillips817]

Love a good lawn guyland accent

[@mirimozy3912]

Those 2 bedrooms must be huge. I wonder if peiple actually sell these houses after these fixups

[@Godsforever1]

idk why everyone wants to destroy those beautiful decorative walls, they are definitely unique and should be raising price

[@monkeyorchid4081]

you may like those wall decorations but not everyone else will so why would you make your target market smaller by having something so unique and quite frankly ugly in your home if you want to sell it!

[@ngahuiroimatanutira-langda4153]

Most wouldnt.

[@sharit7970]

The idea is to give the house a clean slate, and make it the most appealing to the largest number of people. True, there's some that may like the insets, but most likely won't. It's a matter of going for what's likely to appeal to most people.

[@linhaton4957]

Because they are ugly.

[@jarrodbarkley9061]

Nope, don't like them.

[@monkeyorchid4081]

Wow are they living in their granny's house those curtains in the living room are horrible they shut out too much light and make the room look heavy. Those things on the walls I would have just taken them out or plastered over them! What says I havent painted my house without saying I havent painted my house in 6 years...oh I know well the walls have a textured paint so we didnt bother! Rip out the fake fireplace and just make it one whole long wall of a light colour will make the room look bigger! The reason this house hasnt sold is because these people do not understand the concept of your house is your biggest asset so take care of it!!!

[@jarrodbarkley9061]

One bathroom, yikes! But it really is beautiful now. The only thing I don't like is the breakfast bar. I don't like eating facing a wall. I would have gotten a smaller kitchen table, maybe round. Other than that it's great.

[@12snapper43]

Hello purple and yellow are complimentary colors. That I don’t like purple with the yellow walls is purely subjective.

[@timward3116]

What a nice couple. I can see why people wouldn't like their house, but I can also see that they tried to mitigate some of the terrible pre-existing features as best they could. It's just a lot of work and expense.

[@tracylf5409]

Imagine the price of that place today???

[@tracylf5409]

Also, why didn't they paint the power socket backplate on the kitchen bench/table? It almost looks dirty.

[@crystalclear6864]

Did they sell it?

[@gra-emed3617]

They probably took it off the market after the makeover 😂 looks so much better. How much more space does a couple need! Even with kids that house looks plenty big enough

[@3506Dodge]

This house would sell for at least $500,000 today.

[@craftyhobbit7623]

There are so many things wrong with this house that it would take too long to list it - but yellow ages a house. Think back to when people smoked cigarettes and Tabaco much more than they do today and it will yellow white walls, doors, etc... It hardly ever makes a room feel bright. I don't know what they were thinking with the curtains and the sofas and armchairs in the living room are too big. The treadmill (and any other type of exercise machine) is far too large for the space. I'm not a fan of exercise machines in general in homes because they never look like that they belong there.

[@abbybennun5615]

Is she related to kirstie alsop?

[@Yorkshireborn52]

Sister

[@aprilmay1700]

Using spray paint with no eye protection or dust mask? wtf.

[@usflin]

PSA: wear a respirator when spraying paint. Keep the paint out of your lungs! Really surprised a tv show wouldn't have proper gear on while doing this!

[@usflin]

Also a good idea to wear a respirator while cutting wood and sanding walls! Sheesh this show 🥴

[@faragraf9380]

you wonder why interests don’t see the rooms, the potential. Its not expensive. Or must they buy the furniture? I wouldnt do one piece.

[@arfatarfat-bm5qk]

Your too cute ❤❤

[@tonipope3164]

Ugly before... marginally better

[@teresanodin3074]

When is the show(the unsellable) coming back hgtv, _twist thank you
