House Hunters / int_3f1aadeb | comment |
Strictly Formula: Every episode is structured pretty much the same: Segment 1: We are introduced to the homebuyer(s) and learn what they want in a house and how those wants clash with those of a spouse or a relative involved in the purchase. We meet the real estate agent (who may or may not be a friend or relative), who explains how the buyers' desires and budget mesh with the local housing market, and then tour the first house. Segment 2: More personal information about the homebuyer is revealed, and the second house is toured. Segment 3: Still more information about the homebuyer is revealed, and the third house is toured. Final segment: The buyers discuss which house to buy among themselves or with their agent. Cut (with doorbell sound effect) to an epilogue filmed a few weeks or months later, in which the purchased house is revealed and the buyers state how happy they are with their new home. | |

Manipulative Editing | |
House Hunters / int_e409de66 | comment |
Manipulative Editing: The homebuyer has already purchased one of the houses by the time an episode's filming begins. The other two are usually homes rejected during the buyers' search but may also be homes staged by the buyers' friends. | |
