Among the attractive qualities of HGTV are the annoyingly funny comments of the prospective buyers.  The opening to House Hunters often begins with the young couple frustrated with the space of their present rental, belaboring the need for a bigger place by illustrating the problems of their tiny flat.  My favorite illustration is the kitchen is so small for two cooks that with the refrigerator door open, one can't cut the lettuce for a sandwich.

 And,then there are the unrealistic expectations: We are looking for a 3000sqft. apartment in Paris with a view of Notre Dame, but it must be within our budget of $400/month, Or, the buyers looking for a newer home in the historic district.

The buyers don't ask questions about the roof, HVAC, electrical, or sewer, but, rather, the presence/absence of stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.

 Deal breakers tend to be matters such as paint color, letting the $100,000 house, with the ocean view, and 4000sqft, go because the master bedroom has yellow flowered wallpaper.  Open floor plans (aka, open concept)are a must. Kitchens with walls are out because parents can't keep an eye on little Madysen and Dakota while microwaving dinner.

A Mancave is highly desirable, where the mister can "see himself" watching the game with the guys, and the missus needs a spare bedroom for her scrapbooking.

 Big decks are required for entertaining. And, lots of bedrooms are needed for guests. The yards are frequently too small for Rover and Spot, and, hence, the place is rejected.

Real Estate agents do not point out rooms as much as they do "areas."  Or, sometimes both, such as over here is the living room area or bedroom area or kitchen area. And,a favorite is the astonishment in noting that "natural" light enters through windows.

I never saw a guy so unanimated in a great rock and roll band.
