Fed up with compact condo living and eager to start a family, Angela and Ro are looking for a spacious property in a great neighbourhood. And though their wish list is well beyond their budget, they’re not yet ready to compromise.

A dose of sticker shock proves an effective wake-up call and the search is on for a fixer-upper with great bones. When Angela and Ro set their sites on a foreclosed property, it’s up to Drew to lead them through a tricky online auction. Later, Jonathan has his hands full with a mega-renovation of a once abandoned home. With extensive damage and the potential for costly surprises, he proceeds with caution. But while Jonathan looks for ways to save money, the couple insists on a major change that has the budget spiraling out of control.
