So much potential

Warning: Spoilers
There's so much potential here. But constantly left hanging if these people got the house or what happens next. The show just keeps going to the next couple and even brings in new seemingly random realtors, with another story line.

I wish the show would stick with the core group of realtors and finish what happened with each particular buyer. I'm still wondering what happened with the couple from episode one, looking at the multi million dollar homes. The episode just ended, no explanation on what happened next with them. I thought maybe they'd pick back up in episode 2. But no, it just jumped to another set of couples looking at different properties. This show could be great if they just finish the story with the buyer or at least give an explanation.

Ok it's not that horrible

It's pretty bad. Literally no one sold a house or found a house, it just highlights how bad you all are at real estate. It is one large commercial for the Ozarks and most of us have seen the tv show, so now it's the elephant in the room .... Is Jason Bateman going to show up? Because that is the only thing that would save this.

The guy who wanted to come there and get "neck-ed!" And have naked people run around and not be on display on the water? Then they take him to an island with no access !

Or the couples that literally say they need a dock big enough for their boat but we have to measure each time and waste their time and ours?

Then the male couple that want all this weird privacy was just sus!

Only stars for Peggy! She puts it all out there and there was no phonie side, mad respect Mama!

No nepo babies please .....

Waste of Time
jdrub25 April 2024
Grew up at the Lake and it is a beautiful place, with many great, unique homes and talented real estate professionals. You would never know it from this show. These are not the best and brightest agents and are clearly more interested in trying to get their showbiz break rather than create an interesting show that accurately showcases a fantastic, unique area of our country. There are factual inaccuracies. No one from the area with any integrity wants to be part of this trainwreck, so even the chance of it recovering is minimal, it's an embarrassment. HGTV, great idea with really terrible execution. Too bad.

Who knew the producers were this trashy? I know...

You can't blame the realtors. They are in the moment, eating up any line they are given to them and the clients are just as misdirected. Good folk. Bad television. What stands out is the producing. Someone out there in numb Chuck land knew, instinctively no doubt, that reality about the upper Midwest would be as boring as their own self images, so they decided to spice it up. What we are left with is one sad and predictable episode after another. Too bad they cannot go back and reshoot the same episodes, keep the cast and clients, and simply say-be yourselves. That would have been better than the hot mess you'd watch to the end, if you just would watch, which you won't, because it's just poor television. Season #2 is rolled up here in season 1; and it's in the pot stinking to high heaven.

Simply bad realtors
romandetta2 April 2024
Really unprofessional realtors who don't do any research show decrepit homes that don't have the amenities their clients asked for. Unattractive homes on unkempt properties in an otherwise interesting part of the country consistently disappoint clients. No one does their research because they're too busy overdoing their poorly colored damaged hair. The houses are old the grounds are overgrown and the 'experts' don't come close to knowing the properties they show. Too busy worrying about how they look to look at the homes before taking unsuspecting clients around. Even the clients are clueless and they allow their time to be wasted by these home grown grifters. Is this show remotely real?
