1 Comment

Love it or List it Vancouver, W Network
It’s up to Jillian Harris (formerly of The Bachelorette Season V, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition) to revive that love and put a stop to the wandering eyes of our homeowners by delivering a show-stopping renovation. Meanwhile, West Coast realtor Todd Talbot is determined to get homeowners to relocate by dangling temptation right in front of them with dreamy homes on the market. Every episode takes viewers on an emotional rollercoaster as Jillian and Todd implement their plans to battle it out for the homeowners’ allegiance. The stakes are high as guests weigh the financial and emotional decisions of buying a new home or staying in the renovated one—will they love it enough to stay or is it time to list?

Property Brothers, W Network
Real estate agent Drew Scott and his twin brother, contractor Jonathan Scott star in the popular series Property Brothers. This one-hour real estate/home renovation series gets buyers into their dream homes without busting their budget. The series follows Drew and Jonathan as they help couples find, buy and transform extreme fixer-uppers into the ultimate dream home. Each week, with the help of CGI technology, the brothers show buyers the underlying potential in two rundown properties. Once the clients choose the property they like best, Drew begins negotiating the purchase price while Jonathan starts planning the transformation.
