Our 15 minutes of fame with Channel Ten’s “The Renovators”

For those who watched Channel Ten’s latest property programme,”The Renovators”, you may have noticed six rather rundown properties as the real “stars” of the show. The contestants challenge was to renovate and restore these 5 houses (and 1 shop!) back to their former glory, as well as bringing them into the 21st century with creative styling and lots of hard work!  It was an almighty task in what has proved to be a difficult marketplace here in Sydney, with the cheapest house at Blacktown taking the glory in obtaining the largest profit.  Michael Lynch and his team truly had their work cut out for them with the little fibro cottage but the finished product took out the prize, with Michael being crowned as “Australia’s best renovator”.

House Search Australia was the buyers agency who sourced the homes, across a variety of suburbs and in differing price brackets.  It was a highly challenging but ultimately satisfying brief and we are very proud to have been chosen as the buyers agents to have purchased these houses for the show.  Not all “renovators delights” are equal and it was indeed quite an experience to watch our selection become transformed from ugly ducklings into the swans they became.  Well done to all the contestants and all those who worked behind the scenes. Great job!
