Top Real Estate Reality TV Shows

January 27, 2020 by Jeremy Lindy

Over the years, reality TV shows have managed to catch our attention in various ways. One of the most intriguing kinds of reality TV involves real estate. However, reality TV shows like Property Brothers and House Hunters are not just entertaining; they can also be helpful for real estate agents who are looking for the latest trends in the industry. If you are looking for some inspiration, here are the top real estate reality TV shows.

Property Brothers (HGTV)

The first real estate-themed show on this list is Property Brothers. The Canadian reality show has been running since 2011 and notably follows twin brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott. Together, the twins help families find a new home by transforming it under time and budget. Property Brothers has become so popular over the years that various spin-offs have come out of the series, such as Buying and Selling, Brother vs. Brother, Property Brothers: At Home, and others.

Fixer Upper (HGTV)

Fixer Upper lasted five seasons from 2013 to 2018 and details the work and home life of married couple Chip and Joanna Gaines. Together, they own a redecoration and home-renovation business in Texas. The Gaineses do business only in central Texas and show other couples potential homes they can repair and renovate with a farmhouse aesthetic.

Million Dollar Listing (Bravo)

The Million Dollar Listing franchise takes place in several cities, namely Los Angeles, Miami, New York, and San Francisco. The reality TV series is about young real estate agents and their attempt to sell expensive homes in some of the biggest markets in the United States.

House Hunters (HGTV)

House Hunters has been on TV since 1999 and is still one of the top real estate reality TV shows. Each episode follows a couple, an individual, or families as they seek the perfect home with the guidance of a real estate agent. The buyers then decide whether they want to rent or buy the homes they’ve been shown. The show works as you feel like you are watching estate agents in your local area helping normal people find their dream home, it’s relatable and it gives a great insight into the current property market for those looking to buy.

Flip or Flop (HGTV)

When the real estate market crashed in 2008, Christiana Anstead and Tarek El Moussa started to flip homes in California. This is essentially what Flip or Flop is all about, as the two attempt to renovate and resell. Each episode of Flip or Flop presents itself with its challenges, and the results are amazing.
