I received an email today from the producer of a new show on HGTV. She is looking for couples or families that are currently in the market and are faced with the dilemma of living in the city with all the amenities and no commute time versus moving to the suburbs that allows for more space and nice neighborhoods on the same budget (or even less).
Here is what she sent me (and their email address):
Hi Steve,
I wanted to introduce myself to you as I am currently doing research for a new HGTV show that will be filming in Vancouver and across Canada this summer. I came across your blog and website and thought that our show may be of interest to you and your readers.
It’s a show about couples or families that are currently in the market and are faced with the dilemma of living in the city with all the amenities and no commute time Vs. moving to the burbs that allows for more space and nice neighborhoods on the same budget (or even less). I believe it is a dilemma that a lot of families and young couples are facing right now- hence why HGTV has commissioned the show!
We will be filming all across Canada- Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal and Halifax. Currently we are casting and looking for these home buyers. The show is hosted by two hosts that each show three urban or three suburban properties. If the couple are already working with an agent, that’s no problem, as the hosts do not facilitate a deal, they just show them the property.
At the end of the show the couple will decide if they will take the Urban or Suburban property of their choice.
If you have readers that may be facing this challenge and be interested in participating in the show, please let me know. Or they can email me directly at: casting @ forcefour.com
I’ve attached a brochure with more info on the show.
Thanks,
Kate
