The moral of the story is, if someone with knowledge and experience comes along and gives you free advice, in fact begs you to listen, but you yourself think you are smarter than everyone else then this is what happens.

This couple are living proof positive that confidence isn't always a good thing. They had shut themselves off to good advice. They should have listened to Sarah.

I would think anyone who can afford this wouldn't buy in that ratty neighbourhood. Turning it into apartments was a brilliant idea, but not enough "fun" for people who want 10K fishtanks. How clueless and blockheaded they are. Whoever unloaded this albatross on them must have jumped for joy.

The biggest I’ve seen in all the property development programs is people get too emotionally involved in the redevelopment, adding too expensive things and putting their taste in things instead of doing a tidy, clean, magnolia, decent blank bathroom and kitchen.

So. Invite an Expert. And then ignore there advice Then go bankrupt .

A second comment: as mentioned in other episodes this remodel is to the owners' taste and not to the market's. You have to be pretty blind--and stubborn--to think that this expensive of a house would sell in such a run down area. The area isn't even being "gentrified."

Yes, let's put giant fish tanks in. What if 90% of buyers don't want or know how to maintain them? Oh, well - our tastes run to flashy and ostentatious which we mistakenly feel is upscale, so tough. To be fair, they don't appear to be particularly bright, especially Nigel.

People who don't take good advice are the best thing about this show. It was annoying during the rising market though that they frequently still made a shit load of money even after ignoring her. There was one ep where the young couple wanted to move to Australia. At the end of the show it turned out they would have made just as much profit by buying the house, waiting a while, and selling it without having done anything during that time.

Ah, she's a purist, an artiste with a vision - 'orrified at the thought of "ruining the architecture" of the sausage factory in this rundown neighbourhood. Anyway, what does Sarah know, with her small-minded suggestions?

the sausage couple, omg why didnt listen to sarah, a proper pro.

As has been noted, the road to financial ruin often begins with real estate. Not that all property development schemes end in ruin, of course. But if you’re in financial trouble, chances are it started with real estate.

Always consider what a professional says.

Why yes, I would like to move into a construction zone to fund your installation of a millionaire above me.

Does anyone know what font they used when they put things on the screen like 'don't be afraid to change your plans"?

Their learning curve would have been much less steep had they listened to Sarah from the beginning. It always amazes me how novices ignore her wisdom.

Is arrogance really, I mean really a bliss? They wonder why it was sold as a half finished project ! Two kids in candy shop is dangerous.

Why did that woman keep saying how beautiful the building was? Was she taking the piss?

I agree with all the comments. There is only one person to blame........the ignorant amateur 'developer'. It's laughable that he's blaming the builder. He obviously wasn't regularly monitoring the building process. If he couldn't do it then his architect should have been doing it. Zero sympathy
