TLC Needs OUR Help... Realtors Could Lend a Hand

By
Real Estate Agent with North Kansas City Real Estate, Reece and Nichols Residential

 

I had the opportunity of exchanging email with Thalia DaCosta who is casting for  TLC's New Home Series.

I told Thalia that I would be glad to post the announcement here on my blog in hopes that there is an agent out there that can help out.  

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact Thalia by email at: TDacosta@bbcnyproduction.com  

  

 

  

TLC's New Home Series seeks Couples & Families Looking to Move

The network that brought you Trading Spaces and What Not to Wear, is now casting for a new series called Real Estate Road Test (working title)!

  

Are you looking to buy your next home?  Do you want to know what it's like to live in a home BEFORE you sign that mortgage?  Now you can try out the house before you buy it!  Tell us what you're looking for in a new home, and we will match you up with three hot properties.

  

Host, Doug Wilson (ex-Trading Spaces), will show you around the three houses and then you get to choose two to "road test."  Spend the night! Cook in the kitchen, test out the shower, find out if the neighbors are loud, and see if it really does have enough closet space! You decide if the house is your dream home, before you make an offer.  

  

TLC is also looking for homes to feature on the program.  These homes must be currently on the market for sale and fully furnished.  If you have a home that you would like to feature on this program please email us at: RERTCasting@bbcnyproduction.com with pictures of the home as well as full listing details.

  

Applicant Rules

1)  We are looking for dynamic people with outgoing personalities who want to be on television.

2)  At this time, we are only looking for applicants who currently live in THE NEW YORK TRI-STATE AREA (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Philadelphia) AND are looking for a new house in the New York tri-state area.

3)  Applicants must be looking to choose a house between now and December.

4)  Applicants must be over 21.

No love for Kansas City?  Then I will not watch!  Well, I probably wouldn't have watched anyway, to be truthful.

Fran is this going to be televised nationally or will it be shown in just in those four States?

Also when is it expected to air.

George:

I've invited Thalia to read this blog post just in case there were any questions such as yours. :)

TLC airs on cable here, I would imagine that it would be broadcast nationally, but Thalia should answer that.

And if they are just doing casting and the participants need to select a house between now and December, I would venture to say that it will not air until next year.
