Is there anything Drew and Jonathan Scott can’t do when it comes to renovation projects and television shows? From the original Property Brothers series, now in Season 13, to spinoffs like Property Brothers at Home: Drew’s Honeymoon House, the Scott brand means education, information and a healthy dose of humour.
Now the pair is back with another new series in Property Brothers: Forever Home. Bowing on Monday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HGTV, the duo help couples who are settled into their existing home but seek a makeover to make it their forever property.
In the first of seven episodes, the lanky lads are in Las Vegas to meet Susan and Troy, who love their neighbourhood, the backyard and the home overall. But, with a third child in their midst, it’s time to update and upgrade, especially some needless ups and downs because of small steps on the main floor, a double island in the kitchen and a tiny laundry room.
The solution? Raise the entire main floor, nix the double islands for one big area and create a multi-purpose room.
While Drew focuses on manual labour, Jonathan shows Susan and Troy interior design options and inspirations. With a few swings of the sledgehammer, the job is underway. The results are, of course, stunning.
My only quibble with Property Brothers: Forever Home might be the locations they film in. I say “might” because I’ve only seen the first instalment, in Las Vegas, but I worry all of the homes featured are in the U.S. Call me a homer, but I really like to see Canadian locations featured, mainly so I can try and figure out how much it might cost to renovate my home. As I said, Episode 2 could very well be in Vancouver, Calgary or Halifax, rendering this whole paragraph pointless.
If you’re any kind of a fan of the Scotts, you’re doing to enjoy their latest creation.
Property Brothers: Forever Home airs Mondays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HGTV Canada.

Following their social media accounts, they will or have taped their shows in Toronto and Calgary. Hoping they will do the show in Vancouver with real estate still being to high for owners to buy move, it would be beneficial to have current homes updated.
Hey guys. I watch your show and I love it. But I wanted to ask you a question of several. My mom and dad have always been there for my family which include me, my sister, brother, our children and granchildrenand even their great grand children to the point of going into debt at times. What I am wanting to know is who can I go to where I can get them some help? They have NEVER turned us down or turned us away. They owe two mortgages and still we move in, we move out. Lol. They love us with everything they have. Money time, and house. How do I get them help with their mortgage, with the work that needs to be done on the house, inside and out? Hope you can help me with some answers. I can’t think of people more deserving. I know there are people worse off. But my parents are deserving but they don’t think they ars. Thank you and keep doing what you do.
