After tying the knot, newlyweds Kristen and Ben moved in with her parents. And though they’re eager to find a home of their own, their house hunt has been more frustrating than expected. They’ve made half a dozen offers so far, but every time they try to close a deal they lose out to the highest bidder.

Jonathan and Drew step in with some much-needed real estate guidance and it starts with an unexpected course correction. With a turnkey property out of reach, the search is on for a fixer-upper with great bones, but a bidding war soon threatens to derail the couple’s plans—again. Later, Jonathan uncovers a series of nasty surprises and then vows to turn Ben into the ultimate handyman.
