Everytime I tell people I work for HGTV, they immediately tell me how much they looooove “House Hunters.” Most of these people aren’t actively looking to buy a home, so I ask why. And the response is pretty much the same across the board — “I love looking at houses.”
Imagine that. People who just want to look at houses. Well — ask, and you shall receive. We’ve got just the thing to unleash your inner property voyeur.
Safe to say HGTV has mastered the art of showcasing homes and bringing the excitement and drama of homebuying and selling to viewers who can not only relate, but want to be part of it (i.e. how can I get HGTV to redo my kitchen?).
So it was only natural for HGTV to launch FrontDoor.com, with the goal of reaching the millions of Web-savvy consumers who are not only actively buying or selling a home, but those who are just genuinely passionate about the idea of “home” and real estate. You’ve probably already seen the extensive how-to guides and expert tips on the site. But how cool is it to check out some of the most unique homes on the market?
MY FIRST PLACE, HGTV’s hit series, is coming back for a Fifth season and we’re looking for first-time homebuyers in the Greater Philadelphia and Greater Denver areas RIGHT NOW!
We are looking for fun, high-energy people who are just starting the home-buying process for their first place! Our goal is to capture all the trials and tribulations of looking for, bidding on and buying your first place.
