Designed to Sell
On a real estate show, what exactly are you meant to do if the guest is not planning on selling the house for another year or longer? HGTV has everything under control. A staged open house would be held by the network for the broadcast, with a number of friends and family members acting as potential buyers. Hearing that this is actually what happens on the show makes me feel a little dizzy. In addition, the producer’s film a couple of potential endings for different circumstances. On top of that, the repairs have been done in such a shoddy manner that they have had to conceal them with the help of the cameras.
American Pickers
The art of haggling is the name of the game in this place! Unfortunately, there is nothing genuine to be found because the prices have already been fixed in before. We frequently discover shabby sites that provide a plethora of wonderful bargains. After further investigation, it was discovered that the producers had representatives inspect the locations approximately a month before the actual filming began. On top of that, Jack Sophir, aka “Hobo Jack,” isn’t really a hobo in the traditional sense. He happens to be a successful collector with several buildings to his name. The only time he is referred to by this moniker is when he appears on the show.
