Rugby player is patient, but deserves someone more chill and less superficial.
I think they balance each other well. She put in the work settling them in. He comes home with nothing to do but relax. Not sure a relaxed woman would cope like she has. A rugby player is focused, athletic and competitive, traits that they seem to share.
What a bunch of ingrates ! What grace that painfully ridiculous people don't appreciate the truly beautiful houses and reject them. Excellent! The houses deserve better!
Kirstie and Phil are just great friends ....love watching them
I have the impression that Amy is more interested in impressing others than anything else. Several times she mentioned wanting a grand entrance to impress her friends, then towards the end she said that she often lingers outside the front door in the hope that people will see that that is where she lives. It seems horribly superficial because after all, does it really matter what others think?
I find a great number of people are vacuous & superficial. ' Keeping up with the Joneses' syndrome - & usually spending money they don't have.
Very needy and insecure with her self worth. That’s too bad, I blame the parents for not teaching her better.

Great episode! THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting these! I NEVER tire of Kirstie and Phil!
Oh my god all these flats are just beautiful!
Spending lots of money needs a discerning mind. It’s scary. And Stockbridge is such a great area. So glad this lovely couple found a great place.
In Scotland we insist on concluding missives the second all the search has been completed. No gazumping on moving date in Scotland.
How funny! She's in love with the color of the front door. Ok. But it's a matter of picking a bucket of paint.
More scary than funny! Some people's IQs lower 30 points when they househunt.
They never said that, lol. I think she liked the curb appeal, like the entry leading up to the door and the front exterior in general, not the door color, lol.
No. No amount of paint would transform MY front door and entryway into THAT. It has nothing to do with 'just a bucket of paint'. It's the full package.
@@AFAskygoddess ??
@@andreaandrea6716 perhaps you have a difficult time knowing how to transform a home with very little money and lots of creativity. So sad. I'm not lacking in that ability.
I just loving watching you both! Lol Just to funny!!!
Amazing properties. Shame about the weather.
Oh, ooof! Letting that baby fall off the end of the slide. He is very stoic. Maybe get space for a nanny too.😂
I was thinking the same thing!
Good grief - presented with such beauty - well they cannot see it - better to be appreciated by others.
I loved the garden basement flat!
Fantastic episode, beautiful properties all the way. I like Amy's enthusiasm about entertaining her friends and her pride in the beautiful home she owns with her partner.
Love it thank you. 👍👍👍👍
Great video!
They just want to impress their friends with big hall😅
That rugby player is gorgeous....
I call this Time Lapse - what do you call it ? I enjoyed watching - especially 5:07 .... quite eerie at times, those cranes look like Lego ! Your choice of background music is ace 👌 Thank you for the vid.
I would never buy a house with someone who doesn't consider themselves 'settled'. He definitely didn't want that gorgeous house, which she did... game-changer. I felt sorry for her, but it changed her mindset, hopefully for the better for both of them.
Gorgeous apartments!
What was wrong with that kitchen??
That window was stunning. And did anyone notice the stove?
Ugh
Yeah she just cared about impressing her friends. Sad.
Thank you
I had to rewind to make sure I heard correctly. A property on the market for offers over £460K with the expectation of it selling for around £575K is ridiculous. That’s 25% more!! The Scottish system IMO needs to change and be in line with other systems.
Edinburgh city properties appear to be spacious and well-proportioned in comparison, say, to areas around London. However, the prices are eye-watering and the "offers over" system hard to negotiate.
The fact that Amy acts like her unwillingness to compromise is charming, is frightening.
These couples would have drove me insane you have to be very patient in this line of work. I think you get way more bang for your buck in the U.S. esp. when it comes to back yard space.
You do know the US is considerably larger than the UK, right? No duh you get more space in the US, lol.
Sarah and Dom remember He who hesitates is lost!
What are you on about? They didn’t hesitate..
Has anyone else noticed and wondered why in the UK, so many properties listed for sale have the brightest wall colors? Here in NH USA, (I was a realtor for 10 years) we always advised neutral colors to appeal to more buyers! Those yellows are so bright...not great in my opinion.
I guess you American realtors are just too uptight and greedyccompared to the ones in the UK. You want the homeowners to do all the work just for you to get a higher commission!
Here they do not reccomend you change anything or stage when putting your property up for sale.
Matt the rugby players was the only one who wasn't irritating. Amy was quite a lot to put up with. The other couple was just flaky.
All Amy talked about was how she wanted to impress people when they walked in her door.
NARCISSISTIC MUCH?
Most people choose a house that best suits their lifestyle in their needed location and budget.
that's not all she talked about and just because she likes her own front door doesnt make her narcissistic, I think she was very considered in her thinking and a very happy bubbly nice person, have you even meet a narcissist? by yr definition anyone who is house proud is one.
Maybe because she came from humble circumstances she is happy about her improved circumstances. Not narcissistic, house proud.
Galley kitchens belong on boats!
I love watching this show and the 2 host. BUT WOW!! couple put stroller with baby in it in back seat. Here in USA we would be busted for child neglect or abuse.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💞💚🥰🤗
Really dislike the Scottish system with wildly fluctuating prices. That said, these 2 couples managed to sort out their own preferences and ultimately agree on a place and a price. Without Phil & Kirstie I don't think either couple would have navigated the complicated market as successfully as they did.
Attack dog? Yep! That's how I see you too!
It’s so odd, they wear their shoes in the house. Canada, we take off our shoes.
That flat is certainly not my cup of tea
Turn off that ringtone please!!!
FICTION, TOTAL FICTION. LMAO
Explain, please?🤔
Kirstie and Phil kind of seemed like they might be a couple, does anybody know if they are? They are really cute together.
No
Amy 🤦♀️
Here we go..... Now bringing in the cursing why???
If one is home 8 to 10 hours a day, out of that how much time do you spend looking at your front door? This woman is ridiculous!
I love the show, but Kirstie, here's some advice well earned, keep your opinions to yourself! Who are you to tell a man he is being unthoughtful for wanting a music room? This room is part of his life, his children will benefit from that room, and have many memories do to their dad's interest in music. You seem to be a bit bossy at times, and need to be called out. 😁😎👍✌🎄🎅
I’m a fan of kirstie her comments are an reference for negotiation and are a hinted suggestion of requirement or something else that requires a specific perspective that provokes a sense of possibility and benefits some buyers are unaware of the type of property they need and features which are provided that can help by comparison and compromise so Kirstie can sense their dilemma and hesitation it’s a matter of time and patience
@@ivantaurua6735 Try telling that to an audiophile who has $20,000 wrapped up in 2 speakers, an amp, a preamp, a CD player, and a turntable, not to mention the untold $1000's spent on 600 cd's, 800 albums, and still counting. This guy wants an area where his expensive musical gear is safe from little hands, and an area to play his instruments. I'd want a room to keep the little hands away as well from my $20k stereo, and a place to listen. There is no compromising for me! She really wasn't that bad, and that first flat she showed them would have been perfect for me with that large room, assuming the wife like the rest of the property. 😁👍😎✌🗽
Agree. She is terribly judgemental
Glad the guy got his music room - don’t be bullied by judgemental Kirstie
is it wise to buy property with just a girlfriend?
Amy is punching, her Rugby player will get very tired of her nonsense, she just wants bling. I'd be surprised if they are still together
Did I hear him questioning their commitment?
Her comments and attitude were bordering on narcissistic. Hope he will see the light and flee the flat! 😅
I agree, instead of concentrating on building a life together, she's all about impressing their friends. She seems like a very shallow person.
She is allowed her opinion, especially on the biggest purchase of her life. Back off and leave her alone. What EXACTLY did she say to piss you off?
Besides, she certainly doesn’t look like or sound like she wants “bling”. She look more like a “plain Jane” to me.
They don’t want a house they just want to be on tv
Um, they both bought a house, lol.
Amy is rIdiculous. She doesn’t know what she wants. She better watch out, her boyfriend could dump her.
Um, I disagree....Amy knew exactly what she wanted. I don't know what you're talking about, lol. She looked at the second and fourth house and was immediately, "No, I do not want this."
@@Kevin-sm8pn Agreed! (And who wants a wishy-washy partner?)
Property shopping and agent's job are always filled with problems but, the number of times Kirstie gets bent out of shape for expecting a buyer to "overlook" obvious problems is very odd. If noisy roads, washers blocking shower doors, gardens being overlooked by umpteen houses and dark windowless rooms are things the buyer does not want then they should not buy there. Her opinion about what others spend their money and then must live with is utterly irrelevant! She can decide that for herself and ALL of these buyers need to decide that for themselves. Her whining gets old fast.
Kirsties point is that everyone needs to compromise. There’s no such thing as the perfect house in the perfect location done to your exact specifications that fits comfortably in your price range. If you don’t want to do work, then fine you can be on a busy road. If you don’t want to be on a busy road, then fine you can get a house half the size. You want the biggest house you can get, then fine you can move an hour away from your dream neighborhood. You want to live in your dream neighborhood, then fine you can rent. You don’t want to rent? Then too bad. You’re too poor to get what you want where you want. Either compromise or no house for you!
@@thehungrygoldfishwell said!
How very pretentious Amy is. BP
I would dread going on a show like this and appearing as awful as Amy - yuck
Believe me, she doesn’t even make it to the top 100 fussiest house hunters lol
Where do you park? Brunette real estate agent I am not a fan of. She is pressuring people to buy beyond budget. Very overpriced and market only going down
Why offer over asking. Offer below
Did you listen to the intro?
It's part of the Scottish system and the Edinburgh market has been booming!
Also program from 2008
OK, someone was not listening, lol. The standard system in Scottish real estate is "Offers Over." It's basically an auction and the highest bid wins and of course the seller is free to immediately reject your offer no questions asked. Usually, the listing agent will tell you what the seller is expecting. You're, of course, free to offer less than the listed price, but you will be immediately laughed at and rejected and probably put on a black list with all the local real estate agents. As for parking, it's uncommon for UK houses to have garages and driveways because that's simply not the norm, specifically with older houses. You generally park on the street. It's basically like NYC parking. You park where you can.
you called her the brunette - clearly you don't watch our fab kirsty and phil much!
@@Kevin-sm8pn correction: it's like that in New York City, re parking, if one lives in an apartment! (Even with that, some buildings have underground parking) If I was paying UK or American 500,000/$600,000, I'd have a private driveway and some acreage.😂 AND, most likely, a DOUBLE garage!
