S16E4 - Tumby Bay, SA

Sarah and Tom bought a house in Tumby Bay in South Australia and moved with their three young boys. They wanted to extend the house but Sarah bought a rundown bus instead. They tried to renovate it, but made it worse. They realised they lacked the skills and it's been sitting in their backyard ever since. Sarah and Tom are experiencing the pressure of increased interest rates on their mortgage and are struggling to keep up. They've tried to sell it to recoup some of their money, but nobody wants it. They need help. So, in a Selling Houses first, we're taking on the greatest challenge yet. A bus.

S16E5 - Turramurra, NSW

Sonya and Dan thought they'd found their forever home in Turramurra, in Sydney's affluent northern suburbs. They renovated to create the perfect house to raise 2 young kids - but 14 years later, those same kids need much more space, and the forever home doesn't seem so forever. 

After 2 sales campaigns, Sonya and Dan didn't receive a single offer - their unusual floorplan a huge turnoff for the market. Wendy and Dennis can make the best of a bad hand, but to get anywhere near the target price of 2.5 million, Sonya and Dan's house needs fundamental changes, and the biggest number Wendy has ever asked for. 

In a Selling Houses Australia first, Wendy will completely change the floorplan to a new layout that will transform the house, giving it a beautiful new kitchen with an invaluable indoor outdoor connection, a luxurious sanctuary-like lounge / dining, and creating a brand new master with ensuite.

S16E6 - Mermaid Waters, Qld

For the last 6 years, Bec & Jared and their young family have been loving life on the Gold Coast. When an investment property in a nearby suburb came up, the opportunity to secure their financial future was too good to miss. 

They bought an 80's build 4 bedder in Mermaid Waters for 1.55 million dollars, with the idea to knock it down, rebuild and sell for a profit, helping to reduce their existing mortgage. But suddenly - everything went wrong. The builders pulled out, Bec lost her job and the interest rates skyrocketed, leaving this young family unable to afford their plans and with TWO mortgages to pay. 

They tried to sell, but lowball offers of 1.1 million meant they were looking at half a million loss! With only 80 thousand dollars for renovations, Wendy and Dennis have to work miracles.

S16E7 - Jannali, NSW

In Sydney's idyllic Sutherland Shire, Nicky, Danny and their kids have outgrown their fibro cottage. The family's climbing the walls. So, they need to move to a bigger home. 

But they can't sell their existing one. Buyers feel there's too much work needed to bring the place up to scratch and the facade, with its exterior that is painted 50 shades of brown, is a deal breaker too. The rear deck is rickety and there isn't even an off-road car parking space. 

Inside, the kitchen and bathroom are crying out for a new lease on life. But a full reno with a large budget could lead the family to over capitalise on their investment, and there's a real chance they could end up losing money. So, they key is to keep the budget modest and make the most of what the family already have. 

Bringing out the vintage charm of this cottage to make it appeal to the next family is Wendy and Dennis' key challenge. But can they pull it off on a paired back budget?
