Renovations and makeovers seem to fascinate us as a nation and there are many TV shows devoted to such topics. Since the global financial crisis and banks making lending more restrictive, the housing market has slowed down. This might go some way in explaining why over the last decade the focus has shifted towards home improvements and the ways in which people can enhance the value and quality of their properties through investment.
Changing Rooms is no longer broadcast but it has been credited with being one of the best home improvement shows. Couples swapped homes with friends or neighbours and redecorated and renovated the home of the other. The results were not always popular!
The House Doctor was a Channel 5 show in which homeowners with a home on the market were presented with the recorded opinions of prospective buyers while viewing their home. What made the show was the often negative comments made about the interior of the homes. A Californian real-estate stylist was employed to help the sellers make improvements so as to sell their property.
Property Ladder was a similar show which was aimed more at those already on the property ladder who were looking to buy in order to then sell on for a profit. An expert property developer would provide a firm but fair assessment and the episode follows the buyers on how they handled their experience.
