Reviews

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
christinegodby This is not a fair competition because no matter what the designer always wins. She gets the money for the renovation; he doesn't always get to list the house. How is that even a fair competition. No matter what she wins in my opinion. Even if he gets the home owners to list the house, she still got the job to renovate the home first! Stupid competition if you ask me!!!
nataliegonz-84401 Originally I thought this was a great show. Then i watched Proprty Brothers, Fixer Upper, and Flip or Flop. Hilary is the biggest scammer in the world and I feel bad for the homeowners that hire her. She is always making excuses as to why nothing more than paint, new cabinets, and new floors can only happen. I'm tired of her scamming ways. Flip or Flop is based in Cali which I live in and is the most expensive place to do anything in especially home improvement. BUT Flip or flop still manages to flip an ENTIRE HOME which means every room, structure work, foundation work, and additions with the same budget Hilary is given. She needs to take lessons from the Property Brothers, Flip or Flop, and Chip and Jo.
drjtaylorjr-728-425609 I have to admit, when I first discovered this show--I WAS HOOKED. I actually love the hosts and their squabbles; I thought they were funny. BUT, it does follow the SAME formula: 1) couple disagree about the home, whether to keep it or move, 2) Hilary is never satisfied with the money they offer for renovations, 3) David rarely finds a worthy new home on the first try, 4) Hilary runs into problems with her renovations and need more money. and she NEVER fully completes the "asked-for" renovations, and 5) the majority of the time the couple decides to stay and not list it. FYI--the need for a "mud room" seems to be an issue quite often.Well, I tired of the same formula, but I still liked the show, BUT I discovered a more satisfying technique to watching it. I DVR the show, and watch the last ten minutes of the show. It's all I need, and it's satisfying enough.
dfootballparent The basic premise is pretty good. People all over struggle with fixing up their current home or moving. That's where it ends. While some of the before and after are good work, the journey is unnecessarily painful. I have been watching home shows for over 30 years from when they were simple "how-to" on PBS to the current menu. I am a fan of This Old House and HomeTime where the camera moves smoother and actually gives me a chance to see what is going on and they explained what was happening. Love it or List it is a culmination of all the fears people have to move or remodel. Testy people to deal with, sarcasm, and Hillary who demonstrates the stereotypical behavior that people expect from a contractor. Over promise and under-deliver then surprising the homeowner with tough financial and functional choices. I have built many things and fired many contractors who perform just like Hillary and I never get held hostage. This is exactly what scares people away from remodeling.While I have grown a tough exterior for dealing with these things, many people have not and fear getting ripped off. The encouraging truth is that if you do your homework there are actually honorable contractors who will take your money and deliver a quality product as promised. Nothing is ever completely perfect, but the surprises should not be as drastic as the failures on this show. Good contractors just do not do what Hillary does and get half-way through a project before doing their homework and examining the entire house first and then presenting choices to the homeowners. The other encouraging news is that there are better, "can-do" shows. While I miss Norm and, yes, Bob Vila who encouraged you into making things happen and taught you how to do it, the Property Brothers and Fixer Upper, plus so many more take their place pretty well. I only wish they would have better or smoother camera work. That aside, while I like some shows better than others, only one is truly annoying to the point of changing the channel and living up to every stereotypical contractor fear...it is "Love it or List it". With so many other great, positive, shows, I would say do not Love it or List it, just lose it.
